II. the opinion of DR.. Michacls of Der
lin the greatest enemies to the permanent
Cy of the portland cement used in marine
structures are the sulphatos contained in
sea water. If there is any great quantity
of alumina and ferric oxide in the cement,
the structure breaks up sooner than other
wise. This is accounted for by the fact
that the sulphate forms, : it'll the alumni
nate and ferrate of lime, number of crys-
talline compounds, such rs basic sulphate
of lime, aluminu sulphate and ferro sui
phate of lime. These compounds take up
large quantity of water of disqualification,
so that the total volume is much increased;
hence the weakness and disintegratiOn of
the cement structure.
DR.. MiChaelis considers that the separa-
ton Of hydratc of magncsia is quite innoc-
uous, for it is only displaced from its solu-
ton in the form of ll0cculCnt, Shiny hy-
drato, which, if anything, is useful in
stopping up the pores. His general recon-
mendation to users of concrete for marine
work is to choose cement rich is silica
and as poor rs possible in alumina and
ferric oxide and to envelop the structure
with an impcrmeable mixture composed
of one part Of cement with to ~ parts OF
sand of mixed grain, of which at least
ono.thiTd should be very fine sand, and to
this the requisite amount of ballast should

There was a great deal of consideration
in Frank Vaughan's nature. He was full
of it, But unfortunately it was all for
himself He did consider Mary truly, but
not in the manner enjoined by the feeling
girl he had deceived. He considered his
cousin a heaven sent blessing. She was a
good match. With plenty of money in her
own right from her deceased mother and
as heiress 10 her fathers great accumula-
tions, she was just the wife for him.
True, she was a trife slow, but then
that would not matter She could follow
the bent of her own inClinatiOns, and with
her money he could do the same. On the
whole Edith had taken things very calm
1y. All, she was sensible! 1t would have
done no good TO create any fuss, as he had
told her He had certainly expected her to
shed tear, because he had thought she
had given her heart to him. But then
women's heart are very flexible things. In
fact, women themselves are. OF course
they don't feel things like men do. Those
who write SO glibly about broken hearts
and things don't understand the sex. He
did. OF course women may feel II touch

4 GREAT COMET COMING,
The Astronomers Are Preparing
It-It Is Ye, 100000, 900.
Miles Of.
New York Sun,

Norman conquest, and whose terror
inspiring visit was cornmemora,ed
by the hsad of Queen Matilda in
the Bayeux Tapestry the comet
that, in 1856. the year of the battle
of Belgrade, scared Turk and Chris
tian alike, and was mathematical
by bull from the pope; the comet
whose strange scimetar form still
chilled the marrow Of the ignorant
and superstitious at it's latest return
in 1885. 1t is yet far away, but
the eyes OF science see it, already
within the orbit of Neptune, rush
ing sunward and earthward with
constantly increasing velocity as it
falls along the steep curve of its
orbit. And a call to arms, a call
for preparation, has just been issued
from one of the chief watch towers
of astronomy.
| Hslley's comet is not one of the
insignificant crowd of little comets,
60 many of which are discovered
by industrious starg"zers every
year, and which nobody outside
the observatories every see. On
the contrary it furnishes, or, at
least, has done 80 hitherto, q aplen
did spectacle in the sky. Of
course, in speaking of ordinary
telescope comets as insignificant, |
refer only to entifc sense they
frequently posses the highest III
terest and significance. But Hal
ley's comet is one that, when
favorably situated, commando every
eye, and does not need to be looked
tor. During at least eighteen cen-
turtles it has periodically astonished
the inhabitants OF The earth. H.
1855 it's tail was &C degrees long.
In 1885 it had a tail 30 degrees in
length.
1t Was after it's appearance in the
time of Newton, in 1852. that the
fact came to he recognized that
this comet is a regular visitor to
the neighborhood of the sun, in
other words, that it travels in
long elliptical orbit. When near
est it is about 100000 miles
from the sun, and far inside the
orbit of the earth; when most die
tant, it is about g, $40, 100000 miles
from the sun and beyond the
known limits OF the planetary
system.
Now that astronomers have I'm
dertsken the prediction of the exact
period of it's return it will be in
teresting to see VINO will hit nearest
to the mark. And those OF US
who actually see the great comet
on it's return will surely find it
doubly interesting, because it is
like a slowly revolving hand upon
the dial OF history. 1t passed
across the sky twice twelve years
before the birth of Christ. 1t
passed again when Nero Was
emperor; again when the hrst of
the Antonines had just begun his
pacific rein; again when the Goihs
were preparing to attack Rome,
and yet again in the days of
DiocletIsn. The advancing Huns
beheld its transit in the year 373,
and it was blazing in the sky when
their great King Attila was defeat
ed at Chalona, in 451. Belisarius
may have watched it as it swung
across the heavens just after he
had begun his victorious career in
$50. Ii passed again while Mo-
manned was still worshiping the
idols of his fathers in COS. The
