The Comet and Weather.

1t is often asked if the stranger in the
skies has anything to do with this
strange weather. 1t is not at all i'm
probable. Weather is a very delicate
matter, and it is likely to get out of
proper adjustment from the slightest in
reference from the outside, and this
delicate adjustment involves every orb
that flies through the skies. Victor
Hugo says substantially, somewhere:
The anthill moves the constellation, ]"
meaning that there is a relation be-
observation-disclosures that gives to each
certain dependence upon the other
1t is very natural to conclude that the
comet, occupying millions of miles of
coma and tail, bristling everywhere with
electrical emanations, flowing out into
the ether, would so far affect the earth
as to change south wind into flash
of lightning or hang veil of clouds
over a lustrous dawn. We often ascribe
to the comet malevolent influence, but
that is because it is a mystery and it's
appearance is threatening. But it is the
very opposite. 1t is a blessing or it
wouldn't have come. Just as likely its
mission was to avert a danger or to i'm
prove condition, and if it hadn't come
we should have had an epidemic or a
smashup. Certainly 1t obeys Law, and
who dares challenge the wisdom of that
Law?
