WILL THU COMKT HIT US?
A Young Nephew (Jlvcs His Anxious
Auntlo Sonic Pointers.
Now York, Jan. 24, 1910.
My Dear Auntlo: I have your re
cent letter, and I feel very much In
flated over the fact that you havo
asked for my opinion relatlvo to
Halley's comet coming In contact
with this little "green footstool"
upon which wo reside. j
You could hardly havo found a
person more competent to answer
your Inquiry than your lulmhlo
Bcrvant, as I think I know a power
ful lot about astronomical matters.
I ought to, at any rate, for onco I
went through an observatory, and
of course, 1 got n heap of Informa
tion on astronomy then and there
And, on my way out. I foil down
a twenty-foot flight of stairs and
got a few more points on astronomy.
And at another time. In somo most
mysterious manner. I bumped my
head on a policeman's club, aud It
was upon this eventful occasion
that "I looked into the future as far
as human oyo rould see," and next
morning paid the judge for this les
son in astronomy.
Thus, you see, I should be well
versed on tho subject, and In fact
ray astronomical bump is very well;
developed.
My private and professional opin
ion Is that Halley's comet will hit
this little globe of ours. However,
from my recent observations, I can
nssure ,you that on this corner of
tho globe we are in no danger. Tho
comet will not hit tho United States.
At present it is headed for, and will
probably hit, about two car-lengths'
south of Hohokus, N. J. It is now
rC7,392,682 zacters (one zacter is
equal to 65,387,859 miles) to the
leeward, and it Is traveling at the
rate of well, I don't like to tell
you how fast it Is coming, but, ac
cording to my latest calculations It
should dock nt about 12:23 a. m.
on February 30th.
Now, do not become alarmed, If
you havo any friends in the vicinity
of Hohokus, as there is a possibility
that I have made an error In my
figures. Other astronomers have
done such things. I remember,
many, many years ago, when 1 was
a boy, I had tho goldarnaest scare
of my life on a similar proposition.
I heard the older wiseacres talking
about a star or planet, (Arcturus I
think was the name), that was com
ing our way at the rate of several
hundred thousand million miles per
second and was then only some mil
lion billion miles away to the horl
zonward, and, my impression was'
that It was only a matter of days
or weeks when old mother earth
and all her cargo would disappear
like a snow ball in Hades., That's
one of the reasons why I never would
study or do anything that wasn't
absolutely necessary to r.ustaln life.
I said "What's tho use when tho
grand finish is just around tho cor
ner?" That was years and years
ago, and yet that darned old star
has not touched us. It must have
had bad weather or broken some of
Its machinery.
Speaking of being touched by
stars: A few nights ago I got touched
by a "star" for ray watch and pin
but she wasn't of the heavenly va
riety. Being hit by things from way up
yonder does not worry rae half as
much as how I am going to hit a
job paying about ten thousand with
two six-months' vacations a year.
Now, ray dear Auntie, dont wan
der away into the solar system any
more. Stay right hero on earth.
Sit down In your easy chair, take a
good pinch of snuff, and keep right
on with your knitting; keep Uncle's
socks well darned, don't play bridge,
and, when wo all "cross the river,"
I will guarantee that you will land
right on top of a great, big, fleecy
cloud where you can play all day
upon your golden harp and sing "I
Love to be In Heaven, But Oh! You
Nnughty Old Earth."
1 am now going down around the
corner and make some "observa
tions" through the bottom of a great,
big thick glass. Good-bye,
VICTOR.

WHAT IS A COMKT ?
Tho appearance of a small cornet
and the near approach of Halley's
are Incidents which havo aroused
much interest among those who
know little nnd usually care less
about astronomy. Wo aro asked to
ntate tho nature of comets, and ans
wer as fully as posslblo In brief
space. Very visible comets, possi
bly all, are members of tho solar
system, havo vory eccentric ellipti
cal orbits and reappear, according
to the measure of eccentricity, somo
having a period of few years, Hal
ley's about seventy-eight years and
others possibly thousands of years.
Tho sun and all tho major planets
are substantially in the same plane,
but tho comets have unrestricted
paths. Somo como almost from tho
zenith, go around tho sun and dis
appear northward and others do tho
same from tho south. Sometimes
they are disturbed In their orbits
by planets, notably Jupiter, and
thereafter have shorter or different
periods. Somo break up and form
meteors, which wo see In tho sky
at night. They are bolleved to have
arisen at tho time of tho evolution
of tho solar system from the ori
ginal nebula. It should be said that
tho nebular hypothesis of Laplace Is
no longer accopted In Its entirety by
astrophysicists and by many Is re
jected absolutely.
The present theory has for its
basis that matter is eternal, that
there always have been solar sys
tems, just as now in our universe,
and that nebulae aro caused by tho
craBh of suns, either two dead ones,
Ilka our earth or moon, two burning
ones or one live and ono dead ono.
Tho result of tho crash, either di
rect or so close as, to result in break
ing up by tidal action and gravity,
Is tho production of a spinal nebula,
not tho fire mist of Laplace, but
containing more or less solid mat
ter and Immense quantities of
gases. Tho Bolar system la evolved
In tho piano of tho collision a cen
tral sun, planets and their stellltcs
but comets are supposed to bo
largely gaseous bodies hurled off at
any angle at such force as to get
to extraordinary distances before
returning In tho elliptical circuit
around tho parent body.
Comets nru so tenuous that faint
stnrs can bo seen through them.
Somo aro almost like a vacuum. It
Is estimated that a very large one
contains such a small quantity of
matter that It could easily bo com
pressed Into a pill box, although It
extends many millions of miles
across tho sky. A comet grows
brighter ns it approaches tho sun,
partly becnuse of reflection, partly
because tho heat of its own matter
increases and becauso the compon
ent matter is driven off from tho
head by the radial pressure of the
sun. The earth has passed, as Is
believed, through the tall of a com
et without Injury.
Comets cause no damage and
have little effect of any sort on our
system. Large comets are wonder
ful spectacles, and, although not
wholly understood, are being stud
led with great caro In these days by
astronomers. Halley's will be the
most brilliant seen since 1S82. It
will bo visible in the spring and will
probably be extraordinary in Its
phenomena.
DHACON WAS A SMAKT .MAX.
Opposite the railroad depot, where
the colonel had to wait for an hour
or two, was a grocery kept by a col
ored man, and to pass the time away
he strolled across. Business seemed
to bo very brisk with the grocer,
though all his customers were of his
own color. The colonel noticed that
sugar, tea and coffee were asked for
most frequently, and during a tem
porary lull he approached tho bat
tered old scales, on which everything
was weighed, and picked up some
of the weights. The hollow In each
had been filled with lead, and It was
quite sure that a pound weight
would balance 20 ounces of coffee.
By and by It was remarked to the
old man:
"I see you have tilled your
weights with lead?"
"Yes, sab yes, sah," was the re
ply. "What, was tho idea?"
"To keep do dirt outer do holes.
Can't git no dirt In dar' now."
"Was it your idea?"
"No, Bah. I nebber should, havo
dun got dat Idea but for Dokun
Williams. De dekun said It was
de way dey did down In Atlanta,
and ho fixed 'era up fur me widout
cost."
"The deacon buys all his grocer
ies here, doesn't he?" was asked.
"He do sah. Yes, sir, no white
man kin git de dekun's trade away
from me."
Ho was asked to take his weights
over to tho depot and see how they
held out. and ho picked them up
and started off with a puzzled look
on his face. They wore placed on
tho scales one by one, and when
the Inst had been tested the old
man threw up his hands and ex
claimed: "Befo do Lawd, but it am no
wondor I'ze gone into bankruptcy
fo'teon different times and had to
sell my mewl and make do old wo
man go barefut! Dat ar' pound
weight weighs 22 ounces, and every
time Dekun Williams or anybody
else has bought a pound of sugar he
has got three-quarters of a pound
ober! Shoo! I'ze gwino back to
close do stoah and put up a sign of
'Busted Agin!' " Exchange.

Fine Old EnslMi Oak llurned.
Ono of the seven fine old oaks In

It Is surmised that vlltors to the

complete destruction of the tree,
which Is said to be 800 years old.

The teacher was giving hor class
their first losson In fractons. An ob
ject lesson seemed to be desirable.
"Mary McCauley," she said, "If
there was a mince pie on your dinner
table, and your mother asked you If
you would have a third or a fourth,
what would you say?"
"A fourth." said Mary.
Some of the children Uttered, and
tho teacher asked, "Why would you
have a fourth?"
'"Cause," said Mary, "I don't like
mince pie."

'flTBANOH OABR OF HY8T1CUIA..
The Running Away Mania nnd Double-
Personality Phenomenon.
Professor Pierre Janet, In his
book, "The Major Symptoms of Hy
steria," describes a number of io
markablc cases of what he calls
"fugue," or the hysterical mania that
Impels people to run away. Ono of
those Is the rase of a boy of seven
teen, living In Purls, who suddenly
lost all memory of his previous life
and his home. Hp left Pars. and
wandored about the provinces, at last
falling In with an old china-mender,
whom he accompanied, and for
whom ho worked. The restoration
of his memory Is described by Pro
fessor Janet as follows:
"One evening an unlooked for
event 100k plnce again. The day's
work had been a success; the two
companions had earned seven francs.
Tho old china-mender stopped and
said to R.: 'My boy, wo desorvo a
good supper, and we will keep to
day's feast; It Is tho fifteenth of Au
gust.' On hearing this, the boy heed
lessly said: "The fifteenth of Au
gust? Why, It Is tho feast of the Vir
gin Mary, the anniversary of my
mothor's name-day.' He had scarce
ly uttered these words when he ap
peared to bo quite changed. He
looked all around him with astonish
ment, and turning to his companion,
said: 'But who aro you, and what
am I dotng hero with you?' "
The poor man was amazed and was
quite unable to make the boy un
derstand the situation; the latter
still believed himself In Paris and
had lost all memory of the preced
ing months. They had to go to tho
village mayor's, where with great dif
ficulty the matter was made more
or less clear. The mayor telegraphed
to Paris, and tho prodigal child was
sent back home."
One of the most remarkable cases
of double personality on record Is de
scribed by Professor Pierre Janet In
"The Major Symptoms of Hysteria."
The patient, whom he calls Marce
llne, first camo to him about twenty
years ago. For several months sho
had not taken any food and was on
the verge of starvation. After try
ing other methods of treatment sho
was hypnotized, and a secondary
state was induced, which, although
apparently artificial, differed alto
gether from tho state In which she
had been on her entrance to the
hospital. She immediately began to
eat, and soon regained her Btrength.
When sho seemed on the road to re
covery It was thought necessary to
awaken her from the hypnotic state,
which was considered artificial. Im
mediately the patient fell back Into
her preceding state. She was again
unable to eat and in order to save
her lifo It was necessary to reinduce
the hypnotic state.
The same experience was repeated
over and over again, and as Pro
fessor Janet explains, "things contin
ued In this way for fifteen years.
Marcellno would come to mo in order
to be put to sleep, enter Into her alert
state, and then go away very happy,
with complete activity, sensibility
and memory. She would remain thus
for a few weeks; then either slowly
or suddenly. In consequence of some
emotion, fall back Into her numbness,
return to the state wo had consider
ed primitive and natural, with the
Eame visceral disturbances. The
forgetfulnesa was extended over
whole years, and disturbed her exis
tence completely. She would has
ten to come to me to get herself
transformed again. Thlng3 contin
ued thus for years together, till tho
death of tho poor girl who succumb
ed to pulmonary tuberculosis."
Alligator's .Tall.
A great delicacy In Florida Is the
tip of an alligator's tall. It tastes like
frogs' legs, though a bit more gamey.
Alligator tails aro best Just after the
rlco bird season. Tho big alligator
floats In tho water with only their
eyes showing. When they sco a flock
of these fat, Juicy little birds, they
dive to tho bottom. Their long wide
snouts scoup up Eomo of the loam
and they float to tho surface again,
with Just tho rich soil showing. Tho
birds think It Is an Island. They
alight upon It. When the wholo
family is there tho big reptile turns
suddenly. - Just as the birds scram
ble off ho opens his mouth once. They
are gono. The birds ara neat little
feeders and tho alligator Is an epi
cure at this tlmo of tho year. Tho
rlro bird diet makes tho tip of his
tall, of which ho Is most vain, tender
and sweet.
A Nomadic Piece of Land.
Cape Cod Itself Is sand, and llko
everything of a desert naturo Is no
madic. Like tho Arab, It Is always
silently stealing away, so that tho
appearance, of tho peninsula con
stantly changes. The 4 prevailing
winds In the winter being from the
north, the sand Is blown south; In
summer It Is blown t'other way, but
tho winter winds being stronger the
land Is gradually working south.
Monoraoy at the lower end used to
do an Island, Its extromlty being
called Cape Malabar, a name not used
now. This Island of Monomoy Is
rapidly growing toward Nantucket,
It having advanced some flvo miles
in the last fifty years.
Seemed Unlikely.
Little Lorcn had watched the rain

New York, N. Y. Thomas A. Edi
son, looking Into the future, thinks
the prospect of the laboring man Is a
particularly bright one.
"In 200 years, by the cheapening of
commodities, the ordinary laborer
will live as well as n man does now
with 1200,000 annual income. Auto
matic machinery and scientific agri
culture will bring about this result,"
Mr. Edison says. "Not Individualism
but social labor will dominate tho fut
ure; you can't have individual ma
chines and every man working by
himself. Industry will constantly be
come more social and interdependent
There will be no manual labor In the
factories of the future. The men In
them will be merely superintendents,
watching the machinery to see that It
works right.
"The work day, I believe, will be
eight hours. Every man needs that
much work to keep him out of mis
chief and to keep him happy. But It
will bo work with the brain, some
thing that men will be interested in,
and done In wholesome, pleasant sur
roundings. Less and less man will
bo used as an engine, or ns a horse,
and his brain will be employed to
benefit himself and his fellows.
"Tho clothes of the future will be
bo cheap that every young woman will
bo ablo to follow the fashions prompt
ly. "The monorail docs not appeal to
me. It was a fundamental mistake
that our railroads were built on a 4
foot 9 1-2 inch gauge Instead of a 6
foot gauge, which we will probably
havo to come to yet.
"Tho aeroplane of the future will, I
think, have to be on the helicopter
principle. A successful air machine
must be able to defy the winds. If
Wright's aeroplane had one-twentieth
of its surface, the wind principle Is
tho only way to rise above atmo
spheric conditions. By increasing tho
velocity of propeller revolutions the
size of the machine can be diminished
and thereby wo vanquish the hostility
of the wind. A helicopter could have
foot-slzo planes distributed on a 100
to 150 foot circle and controlled from
the centre by wires.
"Chemical food has been worked
out pretty well by Emll Fischer and
his students, but It won't be a com
mercial proposition. You can't beat
the farm as a laboratory, commercial
ly speaking. If wo should dry up like
Mars and couldn't raise vegetables on
the earth wo might turn to a chemical
diet.
"Society will have to stop this
whiskey business which Is like throw
ing sand In the bearings of a steam
engine.
"Among tho many problems which
awuit solution In the future ono ot
tho most important Is to get tho full
value out of fuel. The wastefulness
of our present methods of combustion
Is tremendous.
"There Is not as much power In a
ton of 40 per cent, dynamite aa there
Is In a ton of coal.
"Everything In nature would burn
up If It wero not for the fact that near
ly everything except coal Is already
burned up. Iron would burn and make
a good fuel If In a very lino powder
but It has already been consumed
In Nature's furnace.
"Wo may discover tho germ of get
ting nil tho power from fuel to-morrow,
and then again It may take a
long tlmo to find out.
"To get rid of friction In our ma
chines is ono of the future problems.
Tho only machine without friction that
we know Is the world, and It moves In
the restless ether."

Directions for Treating Pimples.
Susan M. To get rid of pimples re
quires time and patience. Ono must
be exceedingly careful In tho way of
diet, abstaining from sweets and
fried foods, not forgetting tho dally
bath, using n bath brush and scrub
bing tho body vigorously.
Before retiring each night cleanse
the face with the cleansing cream;
remove at onco with a soft towel;
bathe In hot water and apply the pirn
plo cream. In tho morning batho In
hot and cold water alternately soveral
times; into tho last cold water put a
few drops of benzoin.
Once a week cleanse tho face with
tho following cloanslng cream; then
steam tho face over a basin of bail
ing water; cover tho head with a
towel; partly dry tho faco and with
an instrument that comes for tho pur
pose press out any blackheads you
have. If the pimples have formed a
yellow head contents of these may
also be expelled with the Instrument.
Mpssage for ten minutes with tho
pimple cream; remove all the cream
from the face and bathe with toilet
water.
Cleansing Cream.
Oil of sweet almonds, 4 ounces;
White wax, 1 ounce; White vaseline,
1 ounce; extract of violet. 2 drams.
Pimple Cream.
Lanollne, 1 1-4 ounces; Oil of sweet
almonds, 1 1-4 ounces; Sulphur preci
pitate, 1 1-4 ounces; Oxide of zinc, 5
drams; Violet extract, 1 dram,
toilet Water.
Eldorflower water, 2 ounces; Dis
tilled water, 2 ounces.
To Reduce a Woman's Weight.
Miss Maud B. You should take a
long brisk walk every day; eat no
pastry, confectionery or sweot3 of any
kind. No soups, salt fish, salmon,
veal, pork, sausage, no fats, macaroni,
potatoes, com, beets, carrots, pars
nips, turnips, cereal, rice, spices,
cream, milk, malt or spirituous
liquors, beer, champagne, or nvct
wine. You may eat fresh fish, etss
(boiled or poached on toast), lean
beef, mutton, lamb, chicken and game,
always sparingly. Stale bread or '-y
toast. Lettuce, celery, cress, spinach,
asparagus, onions, white cabbage,
cauliflower, radishes, olives, tomatoc3
and ripe fruit of the acid varieties.
One cup of coffee or tea without milk,
cream or sugar, or ono glass of pure
wnter at the end of a meal if it Is
sipped slowly. Place somo camphor
In a bottle and pour alcohol over It
See that there Is always a little cam
phor in the bottle. Bathe the parts
you wish to reduce twice dally.
Air In Sleeping Room.
Janet T. It is not to be wondered
at that you are small and havo a con
tracted chest If you sleep In a room
devoid of a window. Can you not
change your room? You can never
exnect to bo woll and strong as long
as you sleep in a room without ven
tilation. To expand the chest you
should stand before an open window
early In the morning, clad In a loose
gown, with feet close together and
arms relaxed at your sldo; riso slowly
on the toes and take long, deep In
halations through the nostrils, with
the mouth closed; hold the breath for
a moment nnd then come down quick
ly on the heels and exhale quickly
through the mouth. Drink plenty ot
water and try to walk at least eight
squares every day.
Blackheads.
Mrs. H. G. As long as you scrub
your face you aro very likely to have
blackheads. Always steam the face,
or bathe It well with hot water before
trying to remove the blackheads.
After removing them massage thor
oughly and then bathe the face with
toilet water. Apply tho following
blackhead lotion two or threo times
a iay. Before retiring use tho cleans
ing cream, in tho morning tho toilet
wn'er. Hot water with a teaspoonful
of phosphate of soda, taken before
breakfast will soon make the skin
look clear.
Blackhead Lotion.
Boracic acid, 1 dram; Alcohol, 1
ounce; Rose water, 2 ounces.
To Reduce Hips.
Subscriber. Stand with ono foot
on an ottamna and swing the otlior
toot back and forth titty times, night
and morning. Begin a short rather
slow motion, but Increase tho distance
and height with each movement.
Bathe the hips night and morning with
alcohol and massage them with a
deop, firm motion once or twice a day.
Talcum Powder.
Powdered talcum, 2 1-2 ounces;
Zinc oxide, 4 ounces; Powdorod orris
root, 4 ounces; Precipitated chalk, 1
pound; Extract ot violet, 2 ouncos.
Mix all the powders togethor and
then tho extract; let It Btand for
twenty-tour hours, then pass through
a fine sieve.
To Obtain Cucumber Juice.
Slice the cucumber without paring
the cover with a little water, cook
until soft, strain through a cheese
cloth. The essence ot cucumber is
obtained by mixing equal parts of the
lulco and alcohol.
