WHY COMETS DISAPPEAR.

Halley's comet has doubled the cane
of the sun and has commenced it's long
journey through the sky. For over 3S
years it will rush through trackless
space at rate of speed past our com
prehensiOn. It will stop at no way
stations. After this long journey it will
swing about in it's celestial pathway
toward our sun again. It's return will
consume another 38 years, provided it
shall return at all. Should it have at
tanned sufficient momentumin in its present
visit to carry it beyond the confines of
our solar system it may be seized upon
by the attractive power of another sun,
and may never return to us again. 1t
IS very probable that many of our comets
have left our system forever, and that
many comets from other systems have
come to US. The journey which this
comet is to make is a perilous one.
1t is attended with many dangers.
Planets are scattered through the sky.
They are sending out their attractive
forces across the comets path. They
are dangerous highwaymen. They may
draw the comet into themselves, or
may convert it into a satellite to revolve
around some primary. Prof. Samuel
Phelps Leland in the Christian Herald.

THE JUDGE SCORES.

Several lawyers in a Southern city
were discussing the merits aud demer-
its of well-known member of the bar
who had been gathered to his fathers,
when one of the party related an Incl
dent of the time when he had studied
in the old mans office.
1t seems that the inefficiency of the
copying clerk there kept the Judge con-
tinually worked up to the point of ex-
plosion. one day n wire basket fell off
the top of the clerks desk and scratch
ed his cheek. not having any court
plaster. the young man slapped on three
postage-stamps and went on with his
work.
Later in the day he had occasion to
take certain papers to the court, and,
forgetting all about the stamps, he put
on his hat to go out. At the door he
met the judge, who raised his head and
fixed the clerk with an astonished
stare.
Anything wrong sir?" stammered
the bewildered clerk.
''Yes, sir. there is!'' thundered the
old gentleman. "You are carrying too
much postage for second-class matter.

THE fULL.RlGGED MAN.

The full-rigged man who stands four
square to every blast that blows.
For him the hour is ripe, indeed. in
earth's dark battle-throes.
The puny ships are well enough for
pastime and for play,
But, oh, how splendid when the great
full-rigger cuts the spray!
The full-rigged man, on all sides trim 70
meet the windy weather;
In purpose like lance of steel, in heart
as light as feather;
Dark bending to the instant's need with
will and strength supreme,
Now lifting in the clouds his brow in
some eternal dreaml
The full-rigged man, whose balanced
power leaves nothing to be said
Skilled hand, true heart, impervious
zeal, firm spirit and cool head;
No mincing gait TO oplease the crowd, but
winged as shapes of morn
To brave the thunder of the deep and
round the dreaded Hornl
The full-rigged man, whose stately life
of use and strength and will
Goes down as ships do on the sea beyond
the last low hill
Hail and revere and welcome him, and
four-squared with him toll
To lift the public life from stain of graft
and greed and spoil.

GOOD ROADS IN VIRGINIA.

The glowing report of the progress
made in road building this year is good
news to Virginia and Virginians. Every
mile of approximately permanent road
construction is a direct and valuable
addition to the wealth of the State, be-
cause it facilitates transportation. re-
duces the cost, and saves the wear and
tear on teams and vehicles that have to
travel over it.
The mud tax" has been shown to
be the heaviest (unless it be the tariff
taxi that our farmers have to pay; and
it is one by which nobody profits.
For far too many years the attitude
of the average farmer toward the roads
he was condemned to use was that of
the Eastern fatalist. A bad road was
decree of fate or visitation of Prov
idence sent upon him for his sins.
About all he did for the roads was to
pay his road tax"-for the most part
wasted in temporary and generally
worthless repairs-and, if given to pro-
family. fervently to cuss his supervisors
when the subject of roads was men
toned.
But change has come over the spirit
of the farmers dreams. He is begin
ming to realize more or less clearly that
his bad roads that kill his teams, smash
his vehicles, and ruin his temper are
due not to fate or Providence, but to
foolery and negligence essentially his
own. Throughout the State the farmer
is moving to correct both. He has ac-
cepted the fact that if he wants good
roads he will have TO pay for them; but
he also begins to realize the difference
between perpetual drain on his re-
sources for which he gets nothing in re-
turn, and wise and judicious invest
ment that pays from the beginning.
This is the secret of the great i'm
petus that has been given to road
building in the State. Good roads can
only be built at heavy cost; but the
universal experience of the world has
been that, however much it was neces-
sary to expend in building sthem, good
roads have been worth all and more than
all they cost.
1t is infinitely gratifying to all who
are interested in the progress and we'll
being of Virginia to see the growth of
the demand for good roads. ! News

Can't Stand the Strain.

The new skirts may be expected to
razzle along most any old afternoon.
That they have not arrived before this
may be attributed more to the good
sense of the Virginia women than to
any hardness of the local fashions. But
femininity cannot be expected to stand
the strain too long. Struggle as it will,
it is bound to succumb. and the hobble
skirt if not here, is on the way.
Oriental richness is the main charae-
teristic of the fall and winter millinery.
This will be a,great season for bright
colors. AS the head style artist of a
swell establishment said, things will be
generally "rainbowish. For instance.
when milady dons blue dress she will
wear raspberry colored shoes, bands
of gold around her hair and prob
ably green hat.
Will that not be going some?

"KETCH-AWLS S"FROM EVERYWHERE

1t is generally wise to believe the
best of people from whom we differ.
and not the worst. We may sometimes
be mistaken in our judgment. but bet
ter err on the side of charity than on
the side of adverse prejudice. Proba-
bly, most misunderstandings arise from
the tendancy to think evil of those who
oppose us.-BedfOrd Democrat.
Men and women don't need to swing
clubs to threaten home concords. The
husband. armed with a sneer. and the
wife who carries waspish tongue, are
just as well comparisoned for death
dealing battle, as though they pounded
each other with base ball bats. Sar-
casm and nagging are TO the atmos-
phere of love what sand-fiies and fieas
are to summer weather. Who would
not prefer an occasional brush with q
roaring June bug, to the eternal tor
ment of flea you can't catch?
1t must be awful to have good ears
and not be able to hear. just because
our minds are so full of hate and worry
and imaginary trouble, that sounds go
unheeded. 1t is the soul that hears and
sees. The same ears and eyes that
could hear and see are useless when the
soul has fled. The soul sees things by
means of eyes and by means of faith.
Don't be one of those about whom it
was said Having eyes ye see not. "
