five years. Indeed the comet
is already visible through a

Even to this good day there
are some fearful souls who
await the coming Of the comet
with fear and trembling. One
college professor has declared
that the tail Of the comet,
which is formed of some nox-

face of the earth soon a GER

thing in sight. Another hurts

there is nothing to fear-that
Halley's comet is a perfectly
lady-like and entirely harm

And thus it has been going
along for the past several
months. The comet, meantime
has been approaching earth
at the rate Of several million
miles a minute and is at last
within range Of the field glass

April and May myriads Of
