HalleY,s Comet.

Those Of us who live three years or
so longer may expect to see a comet
compared with which our present WIS.,
liant is scarcely worth mentioning.
This wonder of the skies Is Halley's
comet, which, after its mighty circuit
through space, has for centuries paid
us regular visits at an interval Of about
seventy-fve years. On its last appear
ance, In 1885, its brilliant disk and
flaming TAIL spanning the heavens like
an arch of fire, created the greatest ex-
element
Another remarkable comet OF last
century was that of 1911, which for
several weeks blazed brilliantly In the
northern sky. This comet, which was
credited with a tail 200,000,000 miles
long, more than long enough to encir-
Gle the earth 5000 times, narrowly es-
capped a collision with the sun, only
$4,000 miles separating their surfaces.
The comet of 1861 was chiefly re-
markable for the fact that the earth
passed-without any one being q whit
the worse-through its tail.-Westmin-
ster Gazette. 3

A Roar From the Kaiser.

A Hamburg paper tells this story
about the kaiser's attention to detail:
Shortly after his arrival at Swine.
munde the kaiser was standing on the
bridge of the HohenZoflern when he no.
ticed that the sentry, a member Of the
Stettiner royal grenadIers, on duty near
the customs officer, wore a topcoat,
but had his trousers over his boots.
The kaiser shouted to the lieutenant Of
the guard, Lieutenant, when topcoats
are worn the trousers must be worn
inside the boots The officer an ex-
tremely youthful fellow, became con-
fused and did not know what to do or
say, and the emperor called in louder
tones: Lieutenant, | again call your
attention to the regulation. Boots must
be worn over the trousers by men who
wear topcoats.' The command then
few from post to post, and pedestrians
wondered why the soldiers suddenly
became busy with their boots"

GEORGE Bernard Shaw as He Seems

George Bernard Shaw as He Seems.

George Bernard Shaw from the vaga-
ries Of our climate. He looks under
vitalized, and his extraordinary vital
ity is perhaps the most amazing thing
about him. You would certainly say
that his health was chronically bad
If you did not know that he never
confesses, If he can possibly help It, to
any least indispositon. He looks amaze
mic, and the flesh Of his face Is In
clined to fiabbiness, as II he were
man who shirked his fair amount Of
exercise and was careless about his
diet. His nose would have been appro-

eyes Of a soldier. II you saw the back
of his head from behind O. counter az

daring revolutionary of his time.-T.

delight 1t is to obey and serve God.
To him, even in this world, there come
echoes of the songs Of heaven. His
ears acquire miraculous power. Why.
as he listens he can hear all the re-

he can catch the songs OF the heavenly

can you not catch faint whisper OK
your dear ones singing in the other

Through the harsh voices OF our day
A low, sweet prelude finds Its way;

A light is breaking calm and clear.

Ere long shall swell from star to star;
That light the breaking day which tips
