A NEW THEORY ON COMETS.
They are Ghosts of stars.
YAzoo Cry, May Is, 1882.

.e YAzoo CRY, May Is, 1882.
EDITORS YAzoo CRY HERALD /
According to promise, l give you
my theory regarding comets. They
are the refracted lights of wander
ing stars, planets, or bodies celes-
tial, that revolve in ellipticaI orbits
around the sun. These bodies pro-
ducing the comet are transparent,
and the. light of the sun passing
through them cast their bright
shadows on some distant part of
the armament making GHOSTS OF
STARS, if | may use the term, on
some far off point in the heavens
These ghosts of stars are as trans
parent as light itself, for you can
see through nucleus and tail alike
just as you can through the common
"stage ghost" .. ..-. .n.l.sa .g
Now, if astronomers will search
for the transparent body near the
sun, which gives by itP shadow be-
ing to the comet, they will find it
many millions of miles nearer tn ,
san than this ghost, and they will
find this transparent body moving
with no greater velocity than our
earth or any other'planet, although
a shadow or ghost of the star may
move through space at an almost
incomprehensible velocity.
BY simple experiment the shad.
ow theory Of the comet can be ex-
planned. Take lamp for the sun,
common magnifying glass for the
star or planet, and apiece Of white
or blue paper for the armament. =
Bring your magnifying glass to- a
focus on the paper and turn il
slightly oblique to the lamp, anC
by changing its focus you produce
an exact picture Of a comet, and by
a little ingenuity you can produce
the form Of every comet yet Showr
to man. so '.'-
have written the above hastily
and for the purpose of calling the
attention of astronomers ard scien
fists generally 10 the subject, and tt
invoke discussion thereon, and
stand ready to demonstrate my the
ory to the satisfaction of the mos
Skeptic !. ..tr..u

WOMEN AND WHIsTLING.-Ift tie mere
act OF whistling can help and cheer man
so much, why should it be denied to g
woman? If whistling will drive away the
bluec and be company for a lonesome per.
son, surely women have much more need
of it's services than their brothers, for tC
them come many more such occasions than
to men. There are many who have not
the gift of song. Why should they not
whistle as rock the cradle or. perform
their household duties or accompany them
selves on the piano? But there is a phys
cal or hygenic advantage in wbistling
which should excuse it against all the
canons of proprlety or good FORM"
1t is often remarked that the average
girl is SO narrow chested, and in that re-
spect compares so unfavorably with her
brother. May this not be due in some
measure to the habit of whistling which
every boy acquires as soon as he arrives at
the dignity Of pants. and girls seldom do?
Let any one try for five minutes, the in
halng and exhaling of the breath as it &C.
ours in the act of whistling, and the effect
on the lungs and chests cannot fail to be
noticed. A daily practice OF this kind
would be Of more benefit than all the pat
ent inspirators and chest expanders in the
markert.

There is story tod among the Arabs to
the effect that our father Adam planted
the vine. from the fruit of which he made
the intoxicating beverage. 1t has always
been held that Noah Was the first to plant
the famous Vine, but the Arabs say that
Adam was too smart to have missed so
great discovery. Whoever it was that
first planted it, the result would have been
perfectly harmless had not that unprinci-
paled demon always ready to make mis-
chief-cnme in furtivels after the planter
and sacrificed peacock on the spot where
the plant was set AS soon as 1t began to
sprout forth he sacrificed an ape over it ::
when the grapes began to appear he slaugh-
tered lion, and when these ripe, he Offer
ed up pig. Thus are symbolzed the
graduations of drunkenness. He who
drinks wine feels at first as proud as pea
cock, and becomes subsequently as foolish
as an ape, as bold as lion, and at length
as stupid as swine.
