caught by Browne on Woodberry's 20

1t Is now thoroughly established among the

all: in fact. thousands of people suffer with
skin disease and are perfectly healthy other

Smeary salves cannot reach the germs because
they do not penetrate the skin. The only way to
reach the germs is by means of a PENETRAT-

Such liquid can be obtained by simply mixing
ordinary oil Of wintergreen with thymol gycer-

twenty-five years old he so impressed a
midshipman at the Naval Academy that
he never forgot the impression of the

so all through his career that he made
himself felt by all in the service with
whom he came in contact. and his value

In closing Admiral Mahan addressed
himself directly to the midshipmen. He

peach was gone, Palisade pleased u
600 people and gave them an object
lesson in the fruitfulness of Colorado
orchards.
Palisade horticulturists have all
the more reason to be proud of what
their part of the state has done this
season in view of the fact that late
last spring a destructive frost killed
a large percentage of the peach crop
on the western slope. In all the fruit
valley of that section there was
promise of wonderful crop, but in
the latter part of April several
heavy frosts occurred. with the re-
suit that only half IA crop was pro-
duced in the greater part of the
peach section. Palisade was, how
ever, an exception. Sheltered by the
| high cliffs which approach close to
the fruit lands of that locality. the
orchards suffered little or no injury.
and so Palisade had a big crop of
fine fruit to place upon the market.
1t is no wonder that a peach or
chard in that vicinity commands the
price of an orange grove in Southern
California, selling at the rate of from
900 to $4,000 per acre.-Denver

RED TRUNK A WINNER.

Saturday afternoon Mr.. Gilchrest
of the Red Trunk received notice
from the Royal Tailors, of New York
and Chicago, that the Red Trunk
was one of the ten clothing, stores of
its class whose records for the spring
months had shown an increase of
five per cent in its sales. Enclosed
with the notice came a gold medal,
crested with a lions head. with the
words, Prize for Salesmanship, in
gold embossed letters, and check
for $500.
This speaks very well for the Red
Trunk considering the fact that
money has been so close since the
financial panic and considering that
stores all over the United States are
tributary to the Royal Tailors, one
of the biggest tailoring establish
ments in existence.

AN AGED COMET TO

For First Time in .5 Years Haliey's
Fiery Fiend is Coming This Way
- Interesting Facts.
10 West Second South st.

Washington, Sept. 19.-Astrono-
mers at the Naval Observatory are
not paying much attention to the re-
turn of Halley's comet, which is now
approaching the earth. This comet
makes an appearance every seventy
five years, and is the oldest celestial
wanderer known to earth-people,
having been observed, according to
old records, previous to the begin
ming of the Christian era. Scientific
observations since the inception of
modern science of astronomy show
that its orbit varied little and that it
may be confidently expected accord
ing to schedule time.
A comet is bit of some planet
which has cracked off and is flying
rapidly through space. 1t is intense

measuring perhaps thousands of
miles in diameter at the head. car
ries with it a sort of burning atmos-
phere of its own, which precedes it
for some distance and trails out be-
hind il for hundreds of thousands of
miles. This forms what is known
as the tail" of the comet.
Some comets have been declared
10 have tails millions of miles in
length which stretch across the heav-
ems.
Meteorites, which are fragments of
comets, have destroyed ships at sea
and made huge holes in the earth.
Many of these have fallen in the
Southwest, which seems to be a fav-
oriJe place for meteorites, and the
desert of Arizona is pitted with holes
which many miners believe were
made by such visitors.
The earth came in contact with the
tail of comet on June 80, 1861.
The tail was Is degrees long. Many
people thought it caused the Civil
