Strikinoa Comet.

If we ask the effect of comets striking the earth we will readily see 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 of small particles or dust we might never become conscious of it. for the parti- 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 parti. cles strike our atmosphere every day This would be serious matter if We were not protected by our great she taring envelope of air. Occasionally a meteoric howdnr is large enough 10 resist the heal generated by this frie- ,ion and reacheS the surface This w. ,a,l q lnctrurite The now esta bliShn,! connection between comets and ,ae feors is a matter of great interest. - tlalph R.

As he entered the schoolroon he matched plot to get the coveted holiday. He went up to the teachers desk and told his story. My mother wants to know if you won't excuse me for today" he began. "She wants me to do some work at home and thought if I'd study at home this even- tng and make up what I'd missed mebby you'd let me off,"
 Something about the lads manner kept the words from carrying convic- don. The teacher bluffed back as fol- lows: Tommy said she, you won't need to go home at all. Since you started to school your mother called me on the phone to tell me that she had changed her mind and for you to stay here."

A Wealthy Soldiers Idea.

Australians still tell stories of the colonial volunteers, although the war Is far memory. One, member of the Stock Exchange, was left one wet and miserable night to guard wagon load of goods. He shivered in the un- sheltered place for some hours ponder ing many things. and then bright thought struck him just as the colonel >ame around on his tour of inspection.
 Colonel" he asked, "how much Is this wagon worthY'
 'I don't know" was the answer. "Much or little, we can't afford to lose it.
 "Well, but, colonel" persisted the amateur soldier, you might give me | rough idea of the value."
 About f200," said the colonel testify.
 "Very well," was the answer; "1 will come down to the camp and give you a check for the amount Then I'll turn In. I wouldn't catch my death of cold for twice that much"

Fourteenth Century Doctors.

Synge's Social Life in England" quotes number of fourteenth century hints to success for physicians:
 Suppose you know nothing, say there is an obstruction of the liver Perhaps the patient will say. May, master, 1t is my head or legs that trouble me-" Repeat that it comes from the liver, and especially use the word "obstruc, tion." for patients do not understand 1t. which is important.
 Never dine with a patient who has not paid you. It will be cheaper to get your dinner at an inn, for such feasts are usually deducted from the surgeons fee.
 When you are treating wound or accident, the friends of the patient should be excluded. for they may faint and cause q disturbance, but some times higher fee may be got from persons present fainting and breaking their heads against wood and the like than from the principal patient.

Secret Society Among sese isIanderA

Secret Society Among Sese islanders
 The Sese islanders have attained a peculiar notoriety in Uganda because of a secret society called the Bachichi, which is not burial society, although its members take a deep and intelli- gent interest in all deaths and bur1als In their midst. In the more retired vil- lages. although greatly discouraged by the British authorities, it is said to be still the custom for the sorrowing rel atives to bear the body of the deceased wrapped in bark on rough bier to some forest thicket, desolate ravine or other unfrequented spot, where it is left unburied by the bearers, who nev. CT revisit the place again. The Bachi. chi, who are denizens of neighbor1ns village. and distant relatives of the deceased avoid the necessity of burial or cremation and show their respect for the deceased by simply eating him.

Cockades and Buttons,

The cockade originated simply In tos knOt of ribbons or strings by which the broad flaps of the seventeenth cen tury round hat were cooked" of drawn up to the brim in fine weather. and thus originated the three cornered
 iat as well as the cooked hat of later times. There was nothing specially military about the usage. as the IS aorant assert The same strings sur. v.ve in the loops of the hats of bishops and other ecclesiastical dignitaries ir Great Britain. in the strings uf ti;' hats worn by French cures and Span ish and Italian padres and in the cords which are still seen on the hats Of some livery servants.
 It naturally became the custom for 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 tue minds of the people with military uniform In an old Scotch song of Shirramuir. citing "Woodword's Her aldry." we read of "the red 'oat lads with black cockades." and 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 the buttons on she backs of our coats. which were intended to fasten back the flaps in riding or marching.-"Jus- tice of the Peace"

Died at Manila, p I.

Marion, March 18:-News was re-
ceived here today announcing the
death of Arthur Byars in Manila,
Philippine Islands. The news came
through cablegram to E H Byars,
his father. No particulars were
given except that typhoid fever was
the cause of death.
Arthur Byars was about "a years
old and a graduate of Clemson
college. Last year he received an
appointment in the agricultural de-
partment of the Philippine govern
ment, and he had every promise OF
a useful and successful career.
The foregoing despatch published
in the State newspaper last Satur-
day was read with regret here by
the friends of Mr. Byars, whom he
gained while stationed at this point
as cotton buyer for Inman & Co, a
year or two ago. In fact, we be-
lieve it was while he sojourned
here that he received notice of his
appointment in the far-off Philip
pines.
