QuAer pronuneiatiora.

There are many names or places in England that puzzle the stranger. Happisburgh, in Norfolk, for instance, Is pronounced HaZeboro, Abergayenny simply drops a syllable and becomes Abervcnny, and 1t Is alleged that St Neots sounds more like Shoots than anything else. Cirencester seems to vary from Sister to Sizeter. In Sui folk Waldringfeld Is "Wunnerfuf' and Chelmondiston "Chimston," while in the adjoining county of Norfolk Hun stanton is "Hunston,' and In the west country E3dgeworthy is "Badgcry' and Cornwood "kernood. Hunting donshirc claims the purest English, but they call Papworth "Parpor." And not far away is another village of beauty.

Striking a Comet.

If we ask the effect of Il comets striking the earth We will readily see that if the head of he comet were com. posed of bpWIticrS Il collision would have disastrous consequences. A rain of millions of great mete0ric stones would. of course. bring catastrophe If, however, it were merely d rain of small particles or dust W" might never become conscious of it. for the parti- cles would never reach Us. They would be fused into gas through friction with our atmosphere many miles before rc:phing th" surface. If the gases lih- erated by friction were in excessive vulllluc We might suffer discomfort or even disaster. Ii is estimated that hundreds of millions of mcIeoric parti cles strike our atmosphere every day. This would be a serious matter if we We're not protected hy. our great shel- terin@ envelope of air. Occasionally a meteoric powder is large enough to resist the heat generated by this fric- tion aud reaches the surface. This we call a meteorite. The now established connection between comets and me tcors is l nlattcr of great interest. = Ralph E. Idrkin in North American Review
