A Comets Tail.

The tail of a comet is compose of
gas, existing in a highly rarefied con-
dition. Little particles of electricity
called corpuscles, or ions, are beng
constantly given off at enormo is
speed by the sun. Each meteorite in
the comets head is surrounded by its
own rarefed atmosphere. When one
of these little ions strikes n OF the
molecules of gas in the comets at
mosphere, it carries it off with it to
form the tail. The electrical charge
makes the gas luminous, and i: is by
this light, and net by reflected sun
light, that the tail is made visible to
us. A comets tail. therefore, seems
to be merely a very extended aurora.

An Artists Criticism.

Falguiere, the sculptor, tells a cap
ital story of Henner, the great artist,
who, although he lived in Paris all
his life, never lost his Alsatian peas
ant accent or his country manners.
But Henner was a very keen critic
and had a clever way of showing his
dislike of wordy enthusiasm. Fall
guiere. whose talent as q sculptor y
known all the world over, was very
fond of painting, but he did not paint
particularly we'll. One day Henner
WEB in his studio. and Falgufere
showed him some of his pictures.
What do you think of this one?"
asked Falguiere.
"Suberp!" said Henner, with his
Alsatian accent. "Marfelous!"
"And this one?"
"B%roditchous!"
"And this one?"
"Suplime!"
Then the old man picked up a little
Inst which his friend had just fin
finished:
"Ah!" he said. "Now, dat's
good"

guiere used to say.-M. a. P.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

Reform is always headed TO" reac-
ton.
It isn't safe to make love, even to
an engaged girl, fo- she can break II
off.
A mans idea of indulging his wife
is if she will spoil him.
The longer a man a stay away
from his family the more he can lie
about how he misses them.
If there were no telling of lies we'd
have to disbelieve the truth.
A man starts out expecting to get
rich and ends up thinking he is lucky
to keep out of the poor house.
One good deed can deserve another
a long time without getting it.
The more none a man will spend
on flowers for his wife the less he will
want to spend on necessaries for her.
A can forgive her husband
most anything if nobody else will.
A girl is awful smart to be cross
with a man so as to make him think
be is the one.
The danger to a girl Of being pref
ty is she thinks she's prettier.
The reason a man bets is so he
can brag If he wins and forget to
mention it If he loses.
The good investment is for the fell
low who lets you have it for some OF
your money.
A woman spends her money for
what she wants; a man for what he
thinks he wants.
A little cold nerve will get a man a
bigger reputation for ability than a
head full of brains.
Money doesn't give a person viz
tues, but it makes people act as if he
had them all.
A man might be able to spend some
of his own money on himself If he
had no family.
The kind of popularity a man buys
by spending money on people he
couldn't sell for one cent on the dol
lar.
A woman is an exceptionally good
card player when she deals her part"
ner a poor hand and doesn't blame
him for it.-From reflections of a
