The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1898-08-01
PROF. COLES FOR AUGUST,

Earth is now in the House of For
tune" opposed by the House OF Death"
Therefore the death rate this month Will
be far above the average. But out of the
grave of financial despair and despond-
ency will spring up new life that will
cause business to boom all along the
line; for America is Gods favoritc nation
this year. as she is free from the shadow
of Il suns eclipse and at High Flood all
the year. This will give her the ruling
power over all other nations of the earth.
Surely America Is getting rich at a rate
utterly unmatched in history. Awful
plaques, massacrcs, accidents, crimes,
earthquakes, tidal waevs and revolutions
will sweep over the Old Country and car
ry thousands to death; for the great
planets, Uranus Saturn and Jupiter Will
concentrate their evil inuheECes upon .he
eastern countries in gel eral; and upon
America only in part. Let Sampson and
Dewey watch their vessels we'll ana find
a harbor safe from the coming storms
Our predictions last month that the
eastern states would be bombarded by
great electrical storms. and that the
southern states would he flooded. etc.
came true. If break does not occur this
| month in the great sea OF gaseous mat
ter now passing over the sun, Pcnnsyl-
vania, New York and New Jersey will pc
come the magnetic targets for the elec-
trical storms; and all the cities and towns
situated in the main electrical belts had
better watch out for n still harder attack
| than they experienced last month. If n
| break does occur then great storms and
| floods will sweep the eastern and mid
| die states, and produce a tidal wave
| along the sea coast, and the western and
| southern states will be storm swept by
| storms unprecedented. The heat will be
so great In some sections of the west as
| to produce spontaneous combustion on
prairies and in cities. The eastern states
| may also get a fair sample of the heat.
| This month will prove whether Scranton
is really an electrical city, as her pet
! name indicates, or whether she is only
| electrical in name.
| The great sea of gaseous matter now
passing over the sun seems to increase
| In volume each month, and out OF IT
| comes the numerous meteors that fall 10
| earth from time 10 time. We believe tndt
| these meteors will increase in dimensions
| and numbers until whole towns and cities
will be in danger of being blotted out in
| the twinkling of an eye. by these awful
| meteors; and, that great heat will in time
pour down upon us as mentioned in kcve-
! lations, 10th chapter, Sth and 9th verses,
Our prediction that typhoid and yellow
| fever would commence its work of de-
| slruction last month, was fulfilled. This
! month the planets are in position to as
sist these terrible microbes in their aw-
full mission of destruction and also to al.
low the cholera microbes admission inc
this fair land of ours. Spain will sue
for peace; and Germany will be cast into
| deep mourning. New forms of diSea3 50
| microbes will appear and attack the alb
dominal region of both man and beast.
AS this is the month to destroy obnoX
ious weeds and brush. such as Canada
thistle, locust, hazle, plantain leaf. etc.
we have prepared, at our own expense
thousands Of instructions which we Will
send to any address free for postage

also contain the hest days for the SOWING
of winter grain for TO produce best results
and the davs to pot flowers, etc. W.
