For duties that never diminished,
And never the sun when he sank In the

Looked down upon work that was fin

She cooked an unending procession OF
meals,
Preserving and canning and baking.
She swept and she busted, she washed

With never rest from it taking.
A family of children she brought in the

And raised them and trained them and
taught them;
She made all the clothes, and patched,

Till miracles seemed to have wrought

She watched by the bedside of sickness
and pain,
Her hand cooled the raging of fever;
She carpentered, painted, upholstered and

And worked just as hard as beaver.

rEAR OF THE COMET.

You don't have to discuss the ap-
proach of Halley's comet these days
with many people,. Of all degrees of in
terligence and education. to discover
that among a considerable proportion
of them there is just a tinge or FEAR,
or. perhaps it would be better to call
it. nervousness, that the fiery monster
of the heavens, or its most voluminous
tail, at least, may collide with the earth
with disastrous results. Among the
more ignorant these fears are more
pronounced. And in several countries
of the old world where there are large
numbers of unerlightened people, there
is a certainty in their minds that the
world is about to come to an end and
the famous comet is to be its execu-
toner. Take the people of Russia, for
instance, or the poor and ignorant
classes which abound there. They are
Sc sure that the comet portends the
end of the earth that they have quit
work, and are awaiting i'll more or less
1,anic the fate they think awaits them.
1t should almost be unnecessary 20
reiterate that such fears as these are
groundless. Halley's comet has been
lodging around in the heavens for
many centuries, probably for all
times. 1t hasn't hit the earth
yet, and the able astronomers ana
mathematicians of the world have been
able to figure it's course with such
nicely they can give certain assur-
ance that the comet viii pass the earth
this time just as it has so often done
before without getting within millions
of miles of 1t, and so far removed that
there will be no danger from the pois-
o-ous gases which may exist in its tall
Some of the scientists go so far as to in
sist that were the comet headed direct

to almost notflingness by the time 1t

ed assertions Of the astronomers are met

better reason than because" and when
they know they ought not to be. Others
will dig into their Bibles and point out
that one of the prophets said the earth
would endure until the gospel had been
carried to all peoples. This condition
they say has now been fulfilled and
therefore the time for the end of the
earth is at hand. Others will point out
Idifferent passages in the same book
which insist that the earth will be dis
solved some day and it's destruction
will be by fire. The Bible, however, is

..Fairy Tales of science"

Ten million miles of telephone wires

and transmitting on an average 10000
900 calls a day, is our world-beating

that the telephone has Joined forces
financially and mechanically with the
telegraph, the system of uninterrupted
intercommunication day and night be-
tween business and social centers
and the remotest country places,
spreading like a tissue of tinghng
nerves over the whole country, is some
thing to confound the imagination.
Yet the telephone was but new
