BY w. r. Meyer, University OF Cali

from the earth will be little less than
IA million miles. II is hardly neces'
sary to repeat that no disastrous con-
sequences whatever are to be feared
from the approach OF the comet. The

be no scare over the approaching
event Nothing will happen. II will
be nothing more than we passed
through on July 3 1861. when the
earth cut through the comet OF that
year The nearest Halley's comet
could ever come TO the earth would
be 6,235 900 miles.

versity.-The comet might strike the
earth. though such collision is most
improbable. But even II 1t should. the
visible effects would probably be no
greater than those produced by fall
ing stars" The other possible danger
from the comet, the chance of suffoca
ton from the gases In the tail. is also
negatived by actual observation.

by western editor, according to
a writer in the Detroit Tribune, is
an example of that spirit of getting
something for nothing which ami
mates many persons:
Please send me few copies of
the paper which had the obituary

week or so ago also publish the
enclose clipping about my neice's
marriage. And l wish you would
mention in your local columns, if
1t don't cost anything, that | have
a couple bull calves to sell. Send
me couple copies of the paper
