Coming down to our own times, the
great comet of 1858, one of the heav-
emily wonders of this century, is sup
posed to have brought about the Ital-
ian war of 1859, while the comet of
1861, a much smaller affair, occasioned,
it is affirmed. our civil war.
Little, however, as is known OF these
heavenly visitants, they are governed
by the immutable laws of the universe
and have little to do with this small
earth Of ours, which is but pinhead
compared with the vast systems that
swing through space.
Neither the stars in their courses
nor comets portend evil or good to us
nor affect our fortunes. IL is not in
our stars but in ourselves that we are
what we are. 1t is better and wiser
for us to be OF Hotspur's mind. Glen
dover says:

The front of heaven was full of fiery shapes,

should he starving. Only one class of
men have good times, and that class
is the hoarders of money and invest
ers in undoubted security. This class
are prosperous, because the legislation
that they have secured clandestinely,
and otherwise, makes money grow,
and property shrink. In other words,
it increases the purchasing power of
money, and decreases the price of
property. 1t makes the money chang
ers rich, and the producers poor. The
wealth OF the world is so concentrated
by fraudulent legislation that few
men own the money, the banks, the
commercial press, and the trucking
politicians. These men constitute the
money trust. The money trust COM
bines every instrumentslity OF govern
ment, with all the adjuncts which
dominate the people and rob them of
what they produce. If the people
want good times, down with the money
trust up with the Constitution and in
dependent financial policies for the
United States against England's COM
mercial supremacy over the Great Re-
public.

A Venerated Prayer Hook.

The Episcopalions have one copy OF
their prayer book which is called the
standard book, to which all others
must conform. This volume is kept
by custodian with as much care as
though it were its weight in gold. 1t
was revised at the last general conven-
ton in 1892 and was displayed with
great ceremony few days ago at the
present general convention now being
held in Minneapolis. 1t is a magnifi-
Gently bound volume, rich in superb
leather and silver trimmings, a ver-
liable marvel of the bookbinders' art.
The binding of this Standard book
OF common prayer, as we'll as the box
which contains it, was executed under
the supervision of Berkeley Updike, of
Boston, for the Committee on Printing
OF the Standard Book of Common
Prayer. The box is made of ebony,
inlaid with steel. The two panels on
the top are conventionalized Tudor
roses, and the hinges and projection
over the lock OF box are extended
across the top, forming three bars OF
steel which end in conventionalized
thistles. 1t it lined with a cream
colored church brocade, such as is used
for ecclesiastical vestments, the central
figure in the brocade being again
Tudor roses, and on the side a sort of
thistle. These emblems refer to the
Scotch and English origin of the
American episcopate.
The Standard Book itself is bound
under Mr.. Updike's charge from
designs by B. G. Goodhue, in a skin of
violet crushed levant, dyed for it and
is mounted in silver. In the center is
an elliptical-shaped glory which en-
closes viscera containing q inter be-
tween two cusps, ending in roses and
thistles, and beneath this scroll with
the inscription for the standard book
upon it. Beneath this is arranged an
orb surmounted by cross, the upper
part OF the orb being field of stars
and the lower covered with stripes,
emblematic of the American church.
The bosses ut the corners are sur
rounded by symbols of the fou.
evangelists, and these run out some
length into the cover and end some
times in roses and sometimes in
thistles. The massive silver clasps se-
cure the book, which is lettered on the
back, "The Standard Book of Com
mon Prayer, A. ID. 1892"
The box is secured by a paddock
made in the shape of an old English
mitre and unlocked by a key which
ends in an ornamental rose and
thistle.

DAINTY FOR ELE PLANTS.
The Big Fellows Like Oranges Bet
ter Than Anything Else.

Hurper's Round Table.
ii there is anything in the world
that an elephant loves better than a
peanut it is an orange, and if any boy
who reads this wishes, when he goes to
the circus, to give the massive creature
an especial treat, instead of paying
five cents for bag of peanuts to put
in the elephants trunk, let him pur-
chase for the same money one good
sized orange, and present that to the
small-eyed, tlat-eared monster. A
number of years ago, in book which
was called LEAVES from the Life OF q
Special Correspondent" Mr.. O'Shea,
the author of the book, gave the fol-
lowing description of an adventure he
had with herd OF elephants. Said
he: "a young friend once asked ME
to show him some elephants, and
| took him along with me, having
first borrowed an apron and filled it
with oranges. This he was to carry
whilst accompanying me in the stable,
but the moment We reached the door
the herd set up such trumpeting-
they had scented the fruit-that he
dropped the apron and its contents,
and scuttled off like scared rabbit.
There were eight elephants, and when
picked up the oranges found had
twenty-five. I walked deliberately
along the line, giving one to each.
When | got to the extremity of the
narrow stable l turned and was about
to commence the distribution again,
when l suddenly reflected that ii ele-
phant No. in the row saw me give
two oranges in succession to No. he
might imagine he was being cheated,
and give me a smack with his trunk
that is where the elephant falls short
OF the human being-so l went to the
door and began at the beginning as
before. Thrice l went along the line,
and then l was in 4 fix. | had one
orange left, and l had to get back to
the door. Every elephant in the herd
had his greedy gaze focused on that
orange. 1t was as much as my life
was worth to give it to any one of
them. What was l to do? held it
up copspicuously, coolly peeled it and
ate it myself. 1t was most amusing
to notice the way those elephants
nudged each other and shook their
ponderous sides. They thoroughly
entered into the humor of the thing"

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

A little turpentine mixed with
starch will give gloss to collars and
cuffs.
Salt sprinkled upon the kitchen
range will stop the smoke and smell
of substance burning.
Hard finished walls may be cleaned
by using one-half cupiul of ammonia
in a pail of water.
To remove grease stains from
leather apply benzine and afterward
the beaten white of an egg.
Rust may be removed from steel by
rubbing the article with kerosene oil
and leaving it for twenty-four hours.
Then rub thoroughly with a mixture
o. kerosene and fine emery powder.
1t is not quantity that is the main
factor OF food, but quality. Rather
have less, but let it be best of its kind
and cooked in the most scientific and
sc rved in the most attractive manner.
1t is not absolutely necessary to
peel rhubarb preparatory to cooking
Pour boiling water over the plant and
let it stand few moments. Pour off

Carpets need seldom know the wear
and tear of broom, if sponged once q
week, and will look brighter and
really be cleaner than if swept with a
broom. Take pail of water and put
in little soap to soften it, or two
teaspoonfuls of liquid ammonia. Be-
gin in one corner, using the sponge so
that it will not drip, and wipe over a
space about two feet square, then
prick from the sponge all the hair, lint
and other substance that adhere to it.
Go over the remaining space in the
same manner. A carpet-sweeper is
indispensable to every well-regulated
household, particularly when one has
been sewing to such an extent as to
litter the floor

A Telephone Newspaper.
New York Sun,


The telephone newspaper organized
at Pesth, Hungary, has now been
working successfully for two years. 1t
is the only newspaper of the kind in
the world. 1t is called the Telephone
Hirnondo. or Herald, costs . cents,
like printed paper, and is valuable to
persons who are unable or too lazy to
use their eyes or who cannot read.
1t has 5000 subscribers, who receive
the news as they would ordinary tele-
ephone messages. A special wire les
miles long runs along the windows of
the houses of subscribers, which are
connected with the main line by sepa-
rate wires and special apparatus which
prevents the blocking of the system
by an accident at one of the stations.
Within the houses, long flexible wires
make it possible to carry the receiver
to the bed or any other part of the
room.
The news is not delivered as it hap
pens to come in, but is carefully edited
and arranged according to printed
schedule, so that a subscriber at any
time knows what part of the paper he
is going to hear. 1t begins with the
night kilograms from all parts of Eu-
rope. Then comes the calender
events for the day, with the city news
and the lists of strangers at the hotels.
After that follow articles on music,
art and literature. The staff is organ
lied like that of any other newspaper,
and is only on duty from 7 80 in the
morning till 80 at night. After the
copy has passed through the editors
hands, for the paper is subject to the
same restrictions as ordinary newspa.
pers and is liable for its communica-
tions, it is given to the speakers"
These are 10 men with strong voices
and clear enunciation, who work in
shifts of two at time and talk the
news through the telephone. There
are % editions uttered day. Addi-
tions to the first edition are an
nounced as news items.
To fill up the time, when no news is
coming in, the subscribers are enter
tained with vocal and instrumental
concerts. These were at first given
for them especially in the office of the
HirnOndO, but now the wire is in COM
munication with the opera house and
the music halls, and on Sundays and
Saints days with the churches. The
music is transmitted at times to other
places in Austro Hungary, and recent
ly the Hirnondo microphone was con-
nected with the circuit going from
Trieste through Vienna, Bremen and
Pesth to Berlin, the music being
heard in all these places with equal
clearness and force.
If all this really happens at Pesth,

Comets and CatacIysmx.

CnlchHo llmcs-Herhlu.
That the earth and all who inherit
it are "servile to the skyey influence"
is belief older than the Chaldean
shepherds, and modern science has not
yet entirely eradicated it from the pop
ular mind. Accordingly signs and por-
tents of various kinds are always being
hung in the sky and comets more par
ticularly have malefcient intlu-
ence-
The blazing star
Threatening the world with famine, plague and
war.
Hence it is not surprising to learn
that the extraordinary drought and
heat of September, which extended
throughout Europe as we'll as Amer
ica, were caused by Faye's comet,
which is now said to be rapidly ap-
preaching the earth and sun.
From the earliest times comets have
been regarded as harbingers of evil,
followed by plague, pestilence and
civil war. As these disasters have
never been uncommon in the world,
and comets are common enough, it
has not been difficult for those who
reason from condolences to ascribe
the disasters to the comets, though Or
dinary causes could be more easily in
dicated.
Josephus describes comet that
hung like a sword over Jerusalem for
whole year, but the Jews gave no
heed to it and Jerusalem fell.
These mysteries of the sky" were
also suppose to presage the death OF
princes, and when one appeared in the
reign OF Vespasian gave occasion to a
happy retort on the part of the en-
peror. Seeing his courtiers whispering
about the comet he said: THAT
hairy star does not portend evil to me.
1t threatens rather the King o! the
Parthians. He is hairy man, but l
am bald"
The great comet of 1856 was said to
have caused the abdication of Charles
v, though that prince had already re-
tired to his convent when the comet
appeared, The comets OF 1864 and
1866 were the cause OF the great plague
and the great fire of London in the
latter year, according to certain &C old
women. male and female" mentioned
by Defoe.
So the comets OF 1850 and 1882
were, in the popular superstition, the
forerunners of the revolution of 1858
in England and the revocation of the
edict OF Nantes in France, though they
appeared a half a dozen years before
those events.
