General Broke Down, Fearing He

A year or so before the venerable
C.. C. Clarke, now in his eighty-eighth
retired, in 1900, as vice-president
of the New York Central railroad. he
called me into his Office and pointed to
a paragraph in a newspaper contain
ing some reference to Robert Morris,

unless he could have some money

to gain a victory in the approaching

Striking q Comet.

If we ask the effect of 8 comets striking the earth we will readily sec that if the head of the comet were com posed of powders collision would have disastrous consequences. A rain of millions of great meteoric stones would, of course. bring catastrophe. If, however. it were merely rain or small particles or dust we might never become conscious of it. for the partl- cles would never reach us. They would be fused into gas through friction with our atmosphere many miles before reaching the surface. If the gases lib erated by friction were in excessive volume we might suffer discomfort or even disaster. It is estimated that hundreds of millions of meteoric partt- cles strike our atmosphere every day. This would be serious matter if we were not protected by our great shel- tering envelope of air. Occasionally 8 meteoric powder is large enough to resist the heat generated by this fric- tion and reaches the surface. This we call a meteorite. The now established connection between comets and me- teors is matter of great interest," Ralph B. Larkin in North American Review

Human Neare as . Power EnS,nss


 A great physician once remarke0 that, despite its complexity. there was no organ of the body readier to adapt itself to circumstances or more capa- ble of repaying ordinary care than the heart This Is very true. and an np- preciation of that fact should cause us all the more carefully to follow the wise mans advice and to keep our heart with all diligence. When VI have regard to the tremendous wosk the heart accomplishes we might well with Wesley say. Strange that harp oc thousand strings should keep in tune so long," Estimated in scientific fashion, a mans heart in twenty-four hours performs an amount of work which if represented by the energy de handed for big lift would raise 12C tons of weight one foot high. Such @ calculation can be accurately deter mined by measuring the force expend .d in one heat or cycle of movement # the heart and multiplying the short work into that of the day. Thus in nc small degree does the hearts labor contribute to swell the big total of the energy the human engine expends each day 1t iives.-New York World.

Cockades and Buttons.

The cockade originated simply In u knot of ribbons or strings by which the broad flaps of the seventeenth cen cury round hat were cooked" or drawn up to the brim in fine weather and thus originated the three cornered hat as we'll as the cooked hat of lates times. There was nothing specially military about the usage, as the ig- aorant assert. The same strings sur. vive in the loops of the hats of bishops and other ecclesiastical dignitaries in Great Britain. in the strings of the hats worn by French cures and Span lsh aud Italian padres and in the cords which are still seen on the hats of some livery servants.
 It naturally became the custom TOT military men to "cock" their hats with the livery color of the prince they served. and as the Hanoverian color was the convenient one of black the "black cockade' became associated in the minds of the people with military uniform In an old Scotch song of Shirra muir citing "Woodword's Her. aldry." we read of "the red :oat lads with black cockades," and a knot of white ribbons was naturally chosen as the badge of their opponents. When the old use of the strings was forgot ten the knot. in the form of rosette of ribbon. survived. just as did tho buttons on ehe backs of our coats. which were intended to fasten back the flaps in riding or marching.-"Jus- tice of the Peace"

MChoiir.n p

Churchgoers who follow the service in their prayer books would certainly miss the dear old phrase" concerning "quires and places where they sing" and in time the old fashioned ''Quires' may be made new fashioned again by the coming of rationalized spelling. "Choir" was a most unnecessary out rage upon the language. The old Eng fish "quer" or "quere" became quite naturally "quyer" or "quire," and so 1t remained until the end of the seven teenth century. when somebody seems to have introduced "choir" bcause it looked more like the French ''choeur," as if that were valid reason. There could have been no danger of confus- ing a church "quire" and a 'quire" of paper, which is different word, the French "cahier." probably from Latin "quaternarium," collection of four leaves.-London Standard.
