Now there 1t is figured out, not by the stattsticians or politicians, but by the folks themselves, stypical ones in America and in England, who get the wages and have to do the buying with those wages. The Burnley family has $1 50 more margain at the end of the week than the New Bedford family. Needless to say. the relative distances the margins will go are the same as are given more spending money" be- of life are very much higher in Amer ica. Car fare in New Bedford is $ cents, as everywhere else in America. In Burnley it is one penny. or 9 cents, AS 1t Is generally in English cities, ex- cept for long distances. The 10. 20 and 30 cents shows are here 4, and 12 cents. Our 25 cents summer vaude- villes cost here from 8 to IS cents, &C., cording to seats. Tobacco is about the same. but pipes are just half our price Insurance. one of the necessaries of life, is of course about the same in the two countries. That Is. life insurance; but the Englishman has no fire insur- ance because his house is of stone. and burning up, he'll think you are crazy. Not so. of course in America.
 Furniture for the same kind Is cheap CT here. though, op account of the scar city of wood, not much cheaper. The biggest difference is in the making which seems to be much better and more durable here. Generally speak ing. the Americans furniture is more showy but far less durable. not so sub. stantial and elegant.

Comet Has Famous History.

Cambridge Dispatch to New York
 The cablegram received yesterday at Harvard observatory from Prof. Woln. Haley comet had been seen and photo graphed by him gave great pleasure.
 Prof. E. c. Pickering, the head of the observatory, said:
 T was highly elated by pr. Halley's wire. and immediately cabled him my congratulations. Although the comet in this case appears earlier than ex- pected, astronomers all over the world have had one eye open on the lookout for it. It Is, you know, located in Gemini and Gemma.
 Tt was the first periodic comet whose return was predicted. Its discoverer based his deduction on the fact that It's identical with the comets of 1907 and 1531. and that he also found records of the appearance of a great comet in 1456, 1901, 1145, and 1066. From these facts he drew his conclusions on tn. time that should elapse between its

The Original remedy to

 Any article depending solely up- on it's advertising to achieve suc- cess Is never lasting. The history of Newbro's Herpi- eide Is one of continued successes. There is nothing of romance about natural irresistible growth.

stealth and disguise.
He returned to the city, bought a
shabby suit of clothes from a second

the hotel, put the precious dispatches
in q pocket within his shirt, and called
for an automobile. The machine car
ried him rapidly down a well-rolled
road till night fell, when he paid the
chauffeur, and as an additional pre-.
caution for the sake of secrecy walked
ahead till satisfied that he had put
many miles between himself and any
one who might have observed his COM

He had seen enough during the day
to be convinced that under ordinary
circumstances it would be impossible
to pass the sentries, whose beats were
exceptionally short, and who formed
almost a continuous Inc as far as he
had been able TO observe. His in.

was rendered more tenable because
the moon, being in the full, favored
him. The night itself seemed most
propitious, as from the west a dark
bank of clouds was slowly coming for
ward, promising to lend obscurity at a
time when it should be most needed
Cautiously he proceeded along the
river bank, gaining a position in as
close proximity to the moving sentries
as he dared, then slipped off his cloth

awaited the moment of darkness.
