acquainted with It is not the well
known Halley's comet, which is due
to be visible to the naked eye next
spring, but an entirely new comet,
which has just appeared in the sky
and which is causing a sensation in
astronomical circles.
In Thursdays issue of The Gate
toned. it having just been sighted the
night before in America and seen the
night before in Africa. On Friday
night several Keokuk peop'e saw the
comet very plainly, it being located
just above the sun as the sun dropped
out OF sight in the west
M. Meigs saw the comet Friday
evening. He described t. as being
little to the north of the horizon and
looked in the evening glare of the
sun like jet from fireman's hose
seen through fog, or like shower OF
sparks from Roman candle seen
dimly. Later in the evening it grew
brighter as the sun lowered, but 1t
was soon lost to view as the sun dis
appeared At 500 o'clock Friday night
the comet was most interesting
sight.
1t was not visible last night on ac-
count of the cloudy sky, but will prob
ably be visible this evening, If the air
is clear and perhaps can be seen in
the morning, just as the sun rises.
II this comet remains in the sky I'M
til May. when the HALEY comet comes,
there may be big collision in the
sky with the pair of them chasing
around.
The following from a st. Louis pa
per of Saturday morning, is Of inter
est in connection with the new comet:
Father G. M. Charroppin, of St Louis
university, was waiting for twilight,
and the stranger with telescope. and
kept busy until the comet passed from
view at $50 o'clock. He says that
If tonight is clear there will be bril-
liant view of the comet, beginning at
5.45 and lasting about three-quarters
OF an hour. As to the identity of the
fsilOI, Ht rs III uOuDt, anu CO
incides In the opinion of other astrono-
mers that the comet Is q stranger, and
that 1t may never be seen again. Faith
er Charroppin said last night that his
observation OF the comet showed that
its coma or tail is about degrees in
length. He also announces that 1t has
two distinct tails, which will be some
relief to those who thought they saw
two tails, but were not quite GER
tain.
Until he has taken at least one more
observation Father Charroppin says
he will not be able to tell whether the
comet Is going toward or away from
the sun. If it Is going toward the
sun 1t will be soon visible in the early
morning This evening the comet will
nearly perpendicularly line up with
the horizon, head down, little south
OF the point observed last night. There
is no possibility OF this being Halley's
comet as it is in different part of
the heavens.
Prof. ri r. Hicks says the comet
must have slipped up on us on account
OF the cloudy days We have had re-

Gently. He says he observed it yester-
day evening, from $50 to 500. when
the tail or coma disappeared from view.
For the next two or three days PRIZES
,sor Hicks thinks the comet will in
crease in brilliancy. Last night, ac-
cording to observations OF Professor
Eicks. it was ten minutes after the
head OF the comet passed from view
before the two tails were off the scene.
He estimates the lengths OF the tails
at Is degrees, twice the length given
by Father Charroppin.
The comet was first sighted in Afri-
ca four days ago. Then in Cuba Fri

Delcately formed and gently reared. women
will find, in all the seasons of their lives as
maidens, wives or mothers, that the one simple,
wholesome remedy which acts gently and
pleasantly and naturally, and which NAV be
used with truly beneficial effects, under any
conditions, when the system needs a laxative
is-Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA. til
well known to be a simple combination of the
laxative and carninative principles of plants
with pleasant aromatic liquids, which are
agreeable and refreshing to the taste and
acceptable to the system when its gentle
cleansing is desired
Only those who buy the genuine Syrup Of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA can hope to get it's
beneficial effects, and as guarantee of the
excellence of the remedy, the full name of the
company California Fig Syrup Co.'s printed
on the front OF every package and without it
any preparation offered as Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA is fraudulent and should be
declined To those who know the quality of
this excellent laxative, the offer of any substi
tute. when Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA
is called for, IS always resented by transfer
of patronage to some first-class drug estab lisb-
ment, where they do not recommend, nor sell
false brands, nor imitation remedies. The genu-
inc article may be bought of all reliable drug
gsts everywhere; one size only. Regular
price SO cents per bottle. Get bottle today
