Clcarness of the atmosphere has
much to do with the apparent length Of
comets tails. In clear tropical skies
or in the rareficd atmosphere of noun
talnous countries the tails Of such
bodies can be traced much farther
than they can by European Observers
or those of temperate America. The
apparent length of such appendix as by
no means indicates anything OF their
real length, and it often happens that
those which appear the longest are
really the shortest. This is due to the
different distances which comets hold
with respect to the earth. While the
great comet of 1861 had tail which
stretched away more than 15,OOOOQO
miles, its apparent length was five
times that distance The great Donati
comet, with tail which appeared only
half as long as that of 1861, was real
ly 5O,OOOOoO miles in length. The
comet OF 1861 was only about 13,OOO,-
COO miles from us, while Donati's was
at least four times US remote, a clrcum.
stance that would account for its APP
parent lack Of tail The great comet OF
the year 1850 and that Of 1913 each
had Il tail of enormous length. The
length of the tail OF that Of the last
mentioned date has been estimated at
lS0O00.OCO milcs-the longest of any
comet that has yet been observed The
comet of 1850 had Il tail 9o,000,O00

THE BAKERS DOZEN.
s<nr, Of fte osisin According 70 III
Dutch LEGEND.

sNnev Of 1te osi@tn According 70 tho
Dutch Legend.
Some persons, including q few cncy~
clopedists. are incliped to think that
the bakers dozen originated when
heavy tines were considered necessary
to counterbalance light weights and tho
bakers. in order to insure full weight,
took the precaution to add an addi-
tional unit Some have called 1t the
devils dozen, because thirteen was the
number of witches who used to ride
their broomstfc9s to the BLACK mass"
of Satan. The bakers great book in
the 4Astor library has another story Of
Its origin:
Jan Petersen of Amsterdam was
good churchman, but nevertheless he
was afraid of being bewitched. On tho
last night Of 1854 he sat In his bake
shop trying to keep out the evil spirits
by printing himself With n glass Of
good spirits. Sales had been brisk
There were no customers in the shop
for the moment, md he sat back, medi-
tatlng on the gains he would make on
the morrow, when the fresh New.
Years cakes We're put ON sale. He was
startled by q sudden rap. An ugly wo'
man pushed the door open.
"Give me dozen New Years cef.,l-
les she cried In Il shrll voice.
The shrillness OF her voice did not
mean anything to his slow Dutch mind.
1t only annoyed him.
We'll. then, YOU needn't speak so
loud" said Jan. I'm not deaf
~ dozen!' she screamed. Give me
dozen. Here are only twelvc!''
We'll. then. twelve is II Nozcn.'
"Gnc more! l want Il Dozen"
We'll. then. ii You want another. 20
10 tho devil and get it"
The bag left the shop. but from that
night Jan had trouble. The shop SEEM
ed to be bewitched. His cakes We're
stolen. Either his bread was so light
that 1t soared up the chimney or SO
heavy that the supports Of the oven
gave way beneath the burden. His
wife became deaf: his children went
wild. His trade took wings and set
tied in the shops Of his rivals. Three
times the old woman returned. and
each time was directed to the DEVILS
sanctum. At last, in despair, the baker
called upon st. Nicholas to assist him.
The venerable patron of Dutch feasts
delivered Il lecture on charity, telling
the trembling man to be more gcncr-
Gus in the future. Then he vanished,
and in his place stood the hag, who re-
peatcl her demand for one more cake.
Jan acceded, whcreupon she cxclain-
cd: "Thc spell is broken. From this
time one dozen is thirteen" Taking
from the counter gingerbread ef1gy
Of ST. Nicholas. she made the subduel
Dutchman lay his hand upon it and
swear to give more liberal measure in
the future. Since that time thirteen
has been called BAKERS dozen.-New

In the old days Of England bull bait

Halloween Party

The Eastern Star social, Of
Valley Chapter No. 26, Of this
city, last night, was the occa.
sion of the season.
The rooms were handsomely
decorated with emblems of the
farm, such as pumpkins, apples,
flowers and corn, and the ros-
trum was arranged as a wigwam
in which Miss Matte White
appeared as an Indian maiden
as fortune teller, which created
a vast amount of real interest
to those present and all seemed
to be anxious to have their
fortunes told by the distin-
guished lady.
At an early hour supper was
announced and all repaired
to the banquet room, where was
emblazoned inl arge letters the
word welcome" and the walls
festooned with fantastic pump
kin characters cut to order, and
lighted with candles, which
presented an artistic appear
ance. Two long tables extend
ed the entire length of the
banquet hall, we'll loaded with
provision, fruits and flowers,
with hot, steaming, delicious
coffee, while the guests were
waited on by young gentle
men, under the management of
r. w. Myers, who acted as
chief, and all were served with
the best the country could af-
ford. After all had been
served the guests returned to
the main hall for general visit
ing and social cheer.
The most delightful exercises
were then had by the sisters,
dressed in long white gowns,
with lighted tapers in hand.
The lights were turned down,
which cast a peculiar shadow
over the room when these white
ghosts marched in and per-
formed some very artistic evo-
buttons, one of which was form
ing the cabolistic motto,
80. d. ST." which was cheered
to the echo.
At the close of this perform
ance many of the guests re-
turned to the banquet hall,
which had been cleared of
tables, and proceeded to make
merry by an old fashioned Vir-
ginia reel which created much
merriment as many who had
not graced dance for years
We're induced to take a hand.
At a late hour the Logan
friends had to retire so as to
reach their return train, which
did not arrive until a late, or
rather early morning. hour.
Thus closed one Of the most en-
joyable socials ever held in
Missouri Valley and one which
the members of Valley Chapter
hope to repeat at no distant day.
