Notice to Tenants.

As astronomical notice to quit has been
served on the world at large by no less emil
nent astronomer than Professor Proctor, whose
learning and ability are acknowledged. In
recently published essay on "a Menacing Com
et'' ne tells us that there is very considerable
chance of a catastrophe only fifteen years
hence which may put an end to US and our
earthly hopes and fears. Supposing Mr.. Proc
tors facts to be correctly stated, there does
seem a remarkably good chance that in 1897
the sun may suddenly break out into the same
kind Of intensity of heat and light which
caused the confagration in the star in the
Northern Crown in 1866, when for a day or
two the heat and light emitted by it became
suddenly many hundreds of times greater than
they were before, after which the star relapsed
into its former relative insignifcance. Those
few days OF violence, however, must have been
enough to destroy completely all vegetable and
animal life in the planets circulating round
that sun, if such planets were in existence;
and Mr.. Proctor shows no little reason to he-
lieve that the same catastrophe may very prob
ably happen to us, doubtless from q precisely
similar cause, If the astronomers who believe
that the comet of 1880 was identical both with
the comet of 1913 and with the comet OF 1868
should be right, which would imply that the
same comet, with rapidly diminishing period.
is likely to return and fall into the sun, with
all its rhetorical appendages, in or about the
year 1897. Mr.. Proctor tells rs that Professor
Winnecke believes that the identity of
the comets of 1843 and 1880 hardly sd
mits of a doubt while Mr.. Marth thinks
that both may be identical with the comet of
1868, its velocity having been reduced by its
passage through the corona of the sun; so that
on its next return, in a considerably reduced
time, it may be altogether unable to pass ont
of the sphere of the suns influence, and may
precipitate itself, with all its meteoric train,
into the mass of the sun. If this event occurs
-as, at some return or other, Mr.. Proctor be-
lieves to be nearly certain, there will certain
ly be an abrupt arrest of an enormous momen-
tum, as the long train of meteors enters tho
sun, which arrest would show itself in the
shape of enormously increased heat the prob
able result whereof would be the burning-up
of all the vegetable and animal life existing on
the planets of the solar system. 1t is true that
Mr.. Proctor is not quite sure how the absor-
tion of this comet and its train into the sun
would really affect us. he is by no means GER
tain that our sun would burst into flame as tho
star in the Northern Crown did in 1866, but he
evidently thinks it much more likely than not.
a nd he does not seriously doubt that in the be-
havior of the star in the Northern Crown
which so suddenly broke into flame in 1866 we
have the example of a real sidereal catastrophe
which from time to time either actually de-
stroys, or would destroy, if they existed, such
worlds as ours, if they happened to be planets
of a sun thus suddenly fed with great access
sion of cosmic heat.

Domestic accidents are common to women, and
some of them are very serious. Mrs. Warner, of

with which it was playing slight struggle en-
sued in which the point of the shears entered Mrs.
Warmers left eye, entirely destroying the sight.
Her family physician di what he could but intense
ly painful inflammation arose, which, by sympathy,
threatened the loss of the other eye. Total Blind
ness to a woman having the care cf a household Is
an irr etrievable calamity. In this strait Mrs. W
applied to the well-known and skillful Surgeon Dr.
David Kennedy, of Rondout, N. Y, who removed
the injured eye by very successful operation, set
ting aside all danger of further harm to the sight Of
the other eye, but. owing to pain and mental dis
tress, her system needed tonic and restorative
medicine. To do this work the Doctor prescribed
"Kennedy's Favorite Remedy" which sustained its
reputation and laid a sure foundation of health.

Cats.
London Spectator


"The Spectator delights in cat stories. May
1 add one to the interesting list which has
from time to time appeared in your columns?
Picture to yourself little girl, about two
years Of age, sitting ON a low stool before
drawing-room fire. Coiled up on rug is
favosite domestic eat. The child is in a fret
full mood, and has been crying for some time.
The cat endures the annoyance for some time,
though evidently displeased. But even feline
patience has its limits. So pussy uncoiled her.
self, walked up to the child, and gave her
box on the ear with her closed paw, and then
lay down again before the fire. The child, TAX
on completely aback, cried louder than ever,
Again pussy tried to endure it. Again her pa
tience became exhausted, and she delivered a
second box upon the ear, which nearly
knocked the child off her stool. It was now
the little girls turn to be enraged. She rushed
at the cat, and dragged it round the room by
the tail. The story rests on the authority of
the childs mother, who was witness OF the
scene."
As 1 am a constant reader of the Spectator,
know you take great interest in domestic an
imals, and have long wished TO tell you about
Dot She was handsome as TO size; her
coat was a beautiful glossy black, and at the
throat was pretty white star. Each day, as
the different articles were brought in for din
ner and placed ON the table, the charge always
was, Now, Dot come here and take care Of
this till come back Dot mounted guard at
once on a chair at the side of the table, and
was never known to leave her post till the vi
ands were claimed. Whether it was beef, fish,
mutton or game, all was perfectly safe, and
she was quite contented when cooked morsel
after dinner was given to her, as a reward Her
own dinner, though placed close beside her,
she never touched, but always waited till il
was given to her, however hungry she was
known to be.
She was obedient to all orders, one of which
was that she was not to come to my room. Il
prefer to keep at respectful distance from
even domestic pets, however excellent their in
dividual characters) But one very cold even
ing of a very severe Winter, Dot, passing sll
the other rooms, to which she had perfect free
dom, came to my door, and, with special pc
tition, to which my attention was drawn, as
being something quite unusual in cat-langusge,
waited till she was told she might come IN.
The good creature placed herself before the
bright fire. and purred, TO her and our great
pleasure-a selfinYited and truly happy guest
She never once encroached on this one, little,
special favor Could even the illustrious Jack
have excelled her, when food was the charger"

THE Arabian insurrection at Yemen, at
first mere tribal outbreak, is beginning
to assume the proportion of national war.
This and the national movement in Egypt
indicate an inquietude in the East that may
be the precursor of a great Mohammedan
revival. Still more probably, however, it
foreshadows the dissolution of the Turkish
empire and the organization of its parts into
petty nationalities. On moral grounds the
dismemberment of the corrupt and decaying
power of the Sultan is not to be regretted.
Politically it leaves the Eastern question
still unsolved, as the Powers will at once be-
gin race to absorb the lesser nationalities.
