 Have you seen the comet? Where !? In our western heavens about 9 o'clock in the evening. If you are keen of NAb1Oh JOh bCO Ab "Abh Sio hanoo eye. With an ordinary field glass the nucleus and long tail make a striking appearance. But one needs to know just where to look. In the western and northwestern heavens, about nine o'clock, two bright stars may be seen, of the first magnitude. These are respec- lively, Altair ill Aquild, the Eagle, and Vega in Lyra, the Tyre. Vega, the one in the northwest, is the higher up of the two. Begin at this and traverse the space in a straight line which lies be- tween these two bright stars and you come upon the comet lying somewhat nearer to Altair, the more southerly of the two stars. The comet is steadily moving towards this Constellation and away from the more northerly one, so that after lapse of days. allowance must be made for this. The comet s head, or nucleus, is towards the horizon, pointing down, while it's tail, or coma, points up, but in slanting direction towards the south and not to the zenith. The strange wanderer is approaching the sun and it's tail is growing larger as is the case under such conditions. The brightness of the moon at present hand leaps the observer in his search. He may have to wait before he succeeds. But the moon was full on the eighth and comet may be seen all through No vember.
