! Nobody knows how fast these big
worlds move and nobody knows
whittier they are bound. They are
black and cold-tremendous cold
and dead.
| Some day one of these dead
. worlds will wander into the light OF
the sun, and with an ever-increas
ing speed will hurl itself into the
| suns mass. The earth, like Haley
comet, will soon feel the attraction
of this dead planet HURTING
| through the air with such terrific
speed. Slowly at first. but surely
| under the inflexible law of gravity
our globe will turn from its own
path i nthe great universe, and
| swinging in behind the stranger
will dart straight for the sun.
But unlike the case of the comet
we all will be shot like a giant S
| cannon ball into the molten mass
| and perhaps clear through it. IL
| the latter, we will come out on the
other side black and dead, like the
ether ghosts of worlds that once
teemed with life and now threaten
| us.
This, in brief. is Professor Low
ellis theory on the end of life. He
is not a yellow" astronomer, and
| he has science to back him in this
new and startling view.
We cannot tell the time of our
planets end, he declares, but we
have an idea of what will happen
just before the earth hurtles into
/ the sun. 1t will come. as the bible

So Martha hid herself. and In
came little Bob, the father, with
at least three foot of comforter eX-
elusive of the fringe hanging down
before him; and his threadbare
clothes darned up and brushed, to
look seasonable: and Tiny I'm
upon his shoulder. Alas for Tiny
Tim, he bore little crutch, and
had his limbs supported by an iron

,"Why, where's our Martha

"Not coming!" said Bob,z with a
sudden declension in his high
spirits; for he had been Tins blood

had come home rampant. mot

Martha didn't like to see him dis
appointed, if it were only in joke
so she came out prematurely from
behind the closet door, and ran into
his arms, while the two young
Cratchits hustled Tiny Tim, and
bore him off into the wash house,
that he might hear the pudding
singing in the copper.
"And how did little Tim behaves?
asked Mrs. Cratchit when she had
rallied Bob ON his credulity, and
Bob had Rugged his daughter to his
hearts content.

home that he hoped the people saw

to them to remember upon Christ

BOb's voice was tremulous when
he told them this and trembled
more when he said that Tiny Tim
was growing strong and hearty. :.
His active little crutch was heard
upon the floor, and back came Tiny
Tim before. another word was spOk-

versal admiration. Fixed out by
apple sauce and mashed potatoes,
1t was sufficient dinner for the
whole family; indeed, as Mrs.
Cratchit said with great delight
Surveying one small atom of a
bone upon the dish, they hadn't
ate it all at last. Yet every one
had had enough, and the youngest
Cratchits, in particular, were steep
ed in sage and onion to the eye
brows! But now the plates were
being changed by Miss Belinda,
Mrs. Cratchit left the room-too
nervous to bear witnesses-to take
the pudding up and bring it in.
Suppose it should not be done
enough! Suppose it should break
in turning out! Suppose somebody
should have got over the wall of
the back yard and stolen it, while
they were merry with the goose
a supposition at which the two
young Cratchits became livid. All
sorts OF horrors were supposed.
Halo! A great deal of steam'
The pudding was out of the copper.
A smell like a washing day! That
was the cloth. A smell like an
eating house and a pastry cook s
next door to each other, with a
laundress's next to that! That was
the pudding! In half a minute Mrs.
Cratchit entered-flushed, but smil-
ing proudly-with the pudding, like
a speckled cannon ball, so hard
and firm, blazing in half or half-a-
quartern of ignited brandy, and be-
digit with Christmas holly stuck
into the top.
Oh, a wonderful pudding. Bob
Cratchit said, and salmly, too, that
he regarded it as the greatest sue
cess achieved by Mrs. Cratchit
since their marriage. Mrs. Cratchlt
said that now the weight was off
her mind, she would confess she
had her doubts about the quantity
of flour. Everybody had something
to say about it, but nobody said or
thought it was at all a small pud-
ding for large family. 1t would
have been flat heresy to do So, Any
Cratchit would have blushed to hint
at such thing.
At last the dinner was all done,
the cloth was cleared, the hearth
swept, and the fire made up. The
compound in the jug being tasted,
and considered perfect. apples and
oranges were put upon the table,
and a shovel full Of chestnuts on
the fire. Then all the Cratchit fam
lily drew round the hearth, in what
Bob called a circle. meaning half
