WITH A COMET.


Although II is exceedingly improba.
BILE that the earth may be destroyed by
collision with a comet or some huge
meteor, still the fact that such a con.
tingency lie possible is sufficient ground
for discussion on the subject and for
imagining what the result might be,
says the Woman's Home Companion.
The earth is moving around the sun
at a velocity Of eighteen miles a Sec
ond, while the sun, with all Its attend
ant planets. is being hurried on toward
the great fiery constellation Of Hercu-
les at a far greater velocity. The very
fact that small meteors exist proves
the possibility OF the existence in space
Of meteors Of inconceivable magnitude,
Even great black dead worlds may lie
in our path, like breakers in the path Of
ship. Fifty miles a second is not an
unusual velocity for heavenly bodies,
and some are known TO move ut a
speed even in excess Of a hundred
miles a second, FIVE hundred times The
speed Of a rife ball. Small mctcoritcs,
which reach the Garth at velocity Of
from twenty TO thirty miles q second,
are instantly consumed by the friction
generated with lie atmosphere, Large
mcteors. however occasionally reach
the Garth, escaping destruction from
their size, but are found TO have tLcr
surfaces fused from heat generated hy
the passage through tho atmosphere
Although IL is not probable still Il is
possible, that The earth may some time
encounter such q shower az small mo-
toors, perhaps IN The form II q comet
that the heat Of combustion from rric.
tion with our atmosphere and INC rob
sonoHe ccS"s thereby generated might
destroy al tcrrCstr.ail.lc.
