MoNKEYs.--Joe, a monkey at the
London Zoo, could never be got into
his cage when once he was outside.
But he had one weakness--that Of
curiosity-and the keeper, looking
down a dark hole, attracted the at
tention of the monkey, who slowly
approached him to find out the cause
Of the investigation. Suddenly the
keeper would start back and the
monkeys courage deserving him, he
few to the shelter Of his cage, when
the door would be shut. This trick
was successfully played on him,
month after month, he never seem
ing to learn it. Another monkey,
Miss Jenny, that came from India
and parted her hair in the middle,
smoked real tobacco and would
snatch half-smoked cigar from a
visitor and finish it. She would also
hold a bottle OF ale with her hind
foot and take long draughts between
the puts Of smoke.

HOW JOE WON.

Mr.. Joe Beck stepped out on the
ample porch of the agricultural club.
He looked forth With disgust upon
the dense fog in which London was
enyeloped, and then gazed with de-
light upon ii ticket for Calais which
he held in his hand. Mr.. Joe Beck
had an exceedingly rural air. Large
and brawny and grizzied, his brown
face covered with scrubby beard, his
joints clumsily developed, he looked
like a backwoodsman. Being bach

and intensified his. rural air. But
that Mr.. Beck possessed intelligence
was proven by his wideawake air,
and hy the fact that he had brought
no baggage to Europe, except the
little satchel now depending by a
strap from his muscular shoulder
The Hon. Pelix Plimpot, NJ. p,
atepped out on the porch with him.
"Good-by, Mr.. Beck. When you
go back to America, pray forward
your articles in the Spade and Hoe
whenever they appear"
'Good by, Mr.. Plimpot. The best
time I've had in England l had on

The two shook hands, and Mr.. Joe

And the seedy man in gray walk

HOW THE COMETS AFFECT THE
EARTH.

It is reasonable to learn from Prof.
Lewis Boss prize essay on comets,
recently published, that no serious
results are ever likely to happen to
our little planet from the visits to
the solar system of those celestial
Migrants. The influence of comets
upon the earth, he says, is in all pro-
liability quite Insignificant. They
may, like the sun, affect the earth's
magnetic condition, and thus to some
extent, possibly, its meteorology. No
such effect has ever been perceived.
In spite OF some chance coincidence
between the apparitions of great CO.
NETS and remarkable public events,
no well informed person now believes
that al'ere is any reai connection be-
tween them. By a liberal and cred
ulous interpretations of any frequent
ly occurring celestial phenomenon
similar col ..cidences could be also
shown. When comet is converted
into metcoric bodies, which impinge
upon the earth's atmosphere, there is
some direct though probably minute
effect. Some have thought that q
sensible potion Of the heat which
the earth receives is generated in
this way; but tue weight of scientific
opinion seems to be against that by
pothesis. The impact of meteors
upon our atmosphere must add some
matter to it, and this is probably in
the form of dust. This may be the
origin of the so called cosmic dust,
which has been collected at sea in
recent times. The finer particles Of
IT may have some influence on cloud
formations, and other meteorological
phenomena; but all this is merely
conjecture. "A more remote affect
may be sought in the possible fall of
meteors and comets upon the surface
of the sun. Owing to his vast bulk
the sun would attract an immense
number of these bodies; but it Is
quite certain that their effect upon
the SUMS heat is Insignificant. 1t is
now generally admitted that we must
look for the origin of the suns heat
in a constant. though TO US imper-
ceptible, shrinkage of his vast bulk.
Some connection between the FREE
quency of sun spots and comets has
been rather vaguely suspected. =.
Were the search for comets system
atically pursued with equal persfs-
tence for length of time, we might
have some data for the formation Of
sound opinion. Yet it would still
be an open question, whether COM
cts cause the spots, or whether great
er activity of the sun tends in some
way to render comets brighter, SO
that more9will be yisible--with prob
ability in favor Of the latter suppc-6
sition. Finally, it may be said, with
all due respect to scientific decorum,
that the appearance Of great comet
does exert one most happy influence
on the earth, in that it stimulates
the curiosity Of mankind and directs
their thoughts to the more particu-
lar contemplation Of the glorious
universe which surrounds them.

They glanced out into the street
then at Joe Beck's brawny, muscula,

with rage, as Mr.. Joe Beck stepped
out.
In the hall Joe Beck looked at the

AT LAST.

1t seems that the balance OF trade has Mt
last turned against us. For two or three
years the United States has ,'een draining
Western Europe Of hard money, but the last
month has Witnessed a change. or this sg-
nificant fact the Inter Odsaa remarks that "the
movement Of gold abroad Is easily accounted
for, but is nevertheless a cause for alarm.
While two or three million dollars, more or
less, viii have very little effect on our money
market, tie fact that the balance OF trade,
which las aeen SO long in our favor, has
turned against us, Is a 'sasaing 70 look out
for the future. The best fiuapciers say thsy
anticipate no drain Of gold, but If we buy
more than we sell abroad drain upon our
Golfers is iEasitah,e, The enormous impor-
tations OF the last year, isosiiy iusaries have
given alarm to the wises! political economists.
and unless the coming harvest is better than
the last. next winter will see movement Of
gold TO Esirasc that will be serious damage
to our investments. Fhe millions of dollars
in railway securities that have beos placea
abroad demand enormous sums In the way OF
interest, and the new railroads that have
bean hniltrecently cannoteypeet TO pay them
In earnings Tor some years yet.
