PARAGRAPHS

Halley's comet is to reappear in the
 heavens this winter. Astronomers say it will be visible to the naked eye in October about Midway between the Pleiades and Hyades on the west and Castor and Pollux in Gemini on the east, or about degrees to the right, or west, of the bright star Athena in Gemini. The comet has been observed at intervals of about 75 years since the fifteenth century. Records show it's probable return many centuries earlier. It last visited us in 1885, when its tail
 was about 20 degrees long and its nu- cleus like the red star Antares. When the first American census was taken, in l19o, the work was done by $50 employees. To gather and put to- gether the data of the census of 1910 will require the services of an army of nearly 70,G0O men and women.

Billie Burke Style.

The Billie Burke Embarrassing shown

lightly up and back and is held around
the crown Of the head by a ribbon filet.

the ends of the hair are allowed to frolic
in merry mass of little curls, and If a
