the great astronomer says: "rhs

orbit OF the earth, and had the earth
then been in that part of its orbit, ther
mutual gravitation must have caused "a

and in the length OF our year, and n So
large body, with so rapid motion
were TO strike the earth, a thing by no
means possible, the shock might roe

Speaking Of this 1850 comet, Dr.
Dick says: "Prof. Winston attrib1tps
the universal deluge in the time uf
Noah to this comet. His opinion was
that the earth passing through the
atmosphere OF the comet attracted from
it great part of the water that caused
the ilood.n This comet passed within
146, 900 miles OF the sun, moved about
100000 miles an hour and at ils

miles from the sun.

Among the new IAN silks there are

stripes are formed Of a floral pattern.
FouIards are also woven in floral pat

flowers a vague and misty SOitnesS OF

visiting gown in this style Of silk Is
illustrated here. The vine or stripe is
made Of successive violets and foliage
ON a fawn ground. The skirt is sheath
sbaped I'm front, with a princess back,
with Vatican plat hanging from the
neck. Around the bottom are three fiat
rows of moss green ribbon. The half
belt is of moss green Surah, as is also
the vest DlastrOn. Bertha friils Of lace
