DON'T (JET SCARED MAY I8TH. 1
On May 18th many of us earth be
ings will witness n sight the llko of
which has never before been Been by
men, at lcnBt slnco men havo kept a
written history of events. On that
day, for over three hours we shall bo
vlowlng the sun through the great
blazing head of a comet.
Of a sudden our earth, swinging
through spaco at C5.000 miles per
hour, will plunge Into the tall of
Ilnlloy's comet, close to the neck of
It. The tall will have been whipped
against us at Its own speed of 105,
000 miles an hour. Thus this globe
will dive through the luminous haze
at a total speed of 170,000 miles nu
hour, 47 miles per second, the cnrth
entirely Immersing herself In the
celestial mist In less than three min
utes, yet so thick Is the tall nt the
point of perforation C00.000 mllos
that wo shall be nearly three hours
and a half passing through.
What will happen? No two scien
tists agree In detail. They are, how
ever, practically certain there will bo
no harm done to any creature of tho
earth, save tho harm which fear
does. Hut the superstitious are al
most certain to be stricken with
mortal terror during those three
hours.
For those three hours will show to
men the most Bubllmo, awe-inspiring
display of heavenly fireworks this
earth has witnessed since space roar
ed with the primordial flames of
creation, the astronomers say.
But, the chances nre it will be noth
ing but light terrific, but harmless.
For our sunlight during thoso 205
minutes will be filtered through the
comet's head or nucleus fthe head

in the very flames of the sun. This self out-
gaseous head, 51 times as big as our j When a man Insists upon giving
earth and only 14,000,000 miles you advice, you can readily got rid
away (a mere step compared even1 of htm by offering him a little in re-
wlth the distance of the sun), will bo
boiling, fuming; exploding, blasting,
in titanic convulsions of beat after
Its recent experience.
And It Is through such a lens our
sunlight must come filtered for three
hours and a half May 18th.
We did, indeed, have one slight
previous experience with the tall of a
comet. On June 30, 1SC1, we snip
ped through part of tho tall of Teb
bet's comet. But It was a mere wisp
of tall just a thread at the extreme
end of the tail's 24,000,000 miles of
length a hair a scant 300
miles
thick.
let, for tho experience of seeing
that hair severed, tho French as-!
tronomer Liais journeyed to Kio de
Janicro and set up his Instruments.
The moment came. Suddenly
Liais saw the sky turn llko blood at
midday. Then there was a rapid
plunge into a lurid, phosphorescent
yellow and almost Instantly the sky
darkened to a coppery green, as if a
tornado were approaching. And next
instant, before the observer
could
,,.,
realize It. tho sun shown serenely
again, the earth's minute for passing one-
through tho 300-mile-thlck hair was Just as nearly as you can, grow all
up and Liais packed his Instruments 1 the stuff you will need for your fam
and went homo. j '!' an1 your stock right at home thiB
We'll be In Halley's comet's tail ! J'ear. One thing that keeps a good
over three hours. Will the effect be
proportionately awful?
Scientists all over the earth are
warning peoplo to bo prepared for
strange sights, but not to bo frighten
ed. For, as the saying goes tho
whole 02,000,000 miles of its tall,
condensed, "might bo packed in a
trunk."
Says Andre, director of the Lyons
observatory: "You must not bo as
tonished If it shows an aspect as
strange and stranger than anything
eer seen before."
What effect tho adventure will
have upon tho earth Is disputed.
Comets are little understood. There
aro instruments which can detect
their weight and instruments which
partially show their composition, but
beyond those known facts each scien
tist has a different explanation.
A recent theory Is that the comet
nucleus or head Is simply an enorm
ous gas lens, and what appears to be
a tall Is, in reality, only the pencil
of concentrated sunlight such as pro
ceeds from tho ordinary searchlight.
Outside of this pencil wo can see its
length. But onco In it, we would ob
serve an Increase In tho heat and
brilliancy of tho sunlight.
I'nder this theory tho only effect
that will be noticed May 18th will bo
that the sunshine will fairly burn
one. But in tho shade It should be
fairly comfortable.
If tho comet's tall Is of gas, at
Ica3t tho gas Is much diluted.
Some observers foar the deadly
cyanogen gas, which, If thick, would
trifle all breathing things at once.
Diluted, such a gas might turn tho
whole world very sick to Its stomach
for two or three hours.
Sorae'prodlet a display of electrical
phenomena, tremondous, but harm
less as tho aurora boroalls. Dosland
rcs, a Frenchman, says tho tall is
made up of cathode rays, which,
touching our atmosphere, would be
come X-rays of groat Intensity. Tho
e ffect of X-rays upon air is to wring
Hie wntcr out of It. So wo may bo
soaked with deluges of rain during
our comet bath.
Somo bolievo tho comet's tall is In
tensely hot. But this heat must be
thinly distributed, owing to tho filmy
character of the tall. Moroovor, tho
earth has an enveloping blanket of
cool air to savo It. Tho foundryman
can wet his linger and plungo It safe
ly Into molten Iron, Tho air blanket
would act llko a water Jacket.
Thero Is a chanco yet that wo won't
touch tho tall at all. Tho full ob
servations havo not yet been taken.
The final calculations may show that
tho tall will miss tho earth by a fow
thousand miles a microscopical dls-
tanco In space but still enough so
that wo would pass tho tall In bliss
ful Ignornnce of Its nearness.
At any rate thero scorns little dnn
gcr of any hnrm to come to us of tho
enrth. The thing to do Is to hold
tight, don't lose cournge, and keep
your eyes open. Tor you're likely to
see things you can tell about to your
grandchildren.

who was charged fifty cents for two
boiled eggs In a Washington hotel re
cently, has no cause to shake his
fist at the farmer. That modest In
dividual got only eight cents for
thoso two eggs. The forty cents dif
ference wont mostly for style.
Seeding oats and peas: As a soil
ing crop for stock, use one and one
half bushels of each per acre. The
peas need to bo covered much deep
er than the oats, hence it Is neces
sary to seed them separately. Seed
the peas first, weighting tho drill
hoes in order to put them in four
or five inches deep. Tho oats are
sown broadcast and harrowed, or
else drilled shallow. Mako tho first
seeding as early us it Is possible to
work tho ground, following with two
later seedings at intervnls of two
weeks each. Canadian field peas
are the kind to sow for this purpose.

I Golden Weddings.
Married couples look eagerly for
ward to their golden wedding an
' ill- ersary. and immediately after Its
, ro ebrntlon one or the other as n
I Mile, dies. This Is due to supcrstl
! Hon. If the golden wedding were
celebrated at sixty-five years of mar
ried life people would live fifteen
years longer than 'h.y do, ever
looking forward In happy anticipa
tion of Its approach. Let's try it.
Out of 1,000 couples only seventeen
live to celebrate their golden wee
ding. Assuming that the marriage
takes place at 20 years, this means
a life of three-score and ten, the al
lotted space. The golden wedding la

About the Potato..
The history of this vegetable af
fords a striking Illustration of the in
fluence of authority. For more than
two centuries its une as a food was
vehemently opposed. At last Louis
XV. wore a bunch of Its flowers In
the midst of his courtiers, and the
consumption of the root became uni
versal In France.
House Refuse In Germany.
In certain towns in German r
householders are compelled by law
to sort out their house dust. Thoy
have to provide three receptacles
one for ashes and sweepings, one for
cooking refuse, and one for rags and
pai.cr. The rubbish is utilized by
the town authorities.
Electric Meat Saw.
The up-to-date butcher shop Is now
provided with an electric meat saw,
and the old handsaw Is relegated to
the junk pile. In its place is a
fmall handsaw driven by an electric
motor, which severs all bo..e3 in a
neat and expeditious manner.
Whales nnd Dolphins. .
About 40 different kin Is of whales
and dolphins are known, and al
though they live in the open sea and
look like fish they are not fish at all,
but are true mammals, breathing air
and feeding their young on milk llko
cows and horses.
Tobacco Smoke.
Tho smoke from the oowl o" one's
pipe is blue because coming direct
from the red hot tobacco, It is very
hlgh'y ox'dlzed, but tho smoke from
one's Hps Is gray, because It Is high
ly watered and hydrocarbonlzed.
Costly Attempts.
It has become known that tho three
attempts made by Sir Thomas Lipton
to capture the America's cup, the in
trinsic value of which is about $250,.
have cost him $500,000 for yachts
alone.

Poor Material For British Army.
If there be any doubt that physi
cal deterioration In the submerged
classes Is more serious than it used
to be the report of the Army Medi
cal Department pins-one down bet
ween that opinion and the conclu
sion that tho army Is recruited from
a lower social stratum "Average
British rocrults," the report states,
"aro not only the youngest but In the
poorest physical ,'ondltion of those
in any civilized army. They cannot
stand work which did not Injure well
fed conscripts of twenty years of
age; still less can they face exercises
which would do harm to robust
men." They are In fact from want
of food and from cigarette habit such
miserable, specimens of humanity
that It takes two years to make men
of them. The report confirms what
we said tho other day, to the effect
that a British army is painfully pro
duced from the army of the British
unemployed as many as 95 per cent,
of accepted recruits are hopeless
"out of works." There Is a good
deal amiss with the conditions that
mako those degenerates and the re
port gives ono to think furiously;
but tho larger question raised by it
is whether any amount of training
and selection can produce an effic
ient army out of such material.

England, commenced in the reign of
William l. (the Conqueror) about
1080, some say about 1US6. It was

FORCE OF HABIT.
How the Bluejackets on Shore and In
8helter Hold Their Pipes.
In a barroom where many of tho
bluejackets with the American fleet
took their nightcaps before returning
to their shlpB a petty ofllcer said to a
landlubber acquaintance:
"Se how the boys hold their
pipes!"
Almost every one of them had tho
bowl of his pipe covered by tho
arched fingers of his hand.
"8ee?" said the petty officer. "Now
wait till one of them lights his pipe."
In n little while a tailor filled his
pipe, got out his match and faced the
open door of the barroom. There was
not a breath of breeze coming through
the door, but the sailor covered the
lighted match nnd the pipe bowl with
ono hand while he was getting a light,
and after bo had thrown tho dead
match away he continued to smoke
with his fingers arched over the pipe
bowl.
"Force of habit." said the petty
officer. "He doesn't Intend that the
piping breeze shall blow the lighted
tobacco out of his pipe."
Superstitious Remedies.
For whooping cough a cooked dor
mouse Is good. In the eighteenth cen
tury this remedy was employed In
Scotland. Here Is another medica
ment for the same complaint: "Wa
tercross Is a very good thing, sir, with
a little bit of that brown sugar what
you uses to put onto bacon, and somo
honey mixed with It. And I'll tell you
what's a good thing for croup but a
rlcsty bacon fat fried down, and afore
It resolves add some pepper and vine
gar; It opens the pipes of the lungs,
d'ye see." And If you are adyenuu
ous you may try this for "phlegm c, .o
the chest": Catch a "dear little doity
frog" and tie a bit of string to one o(
Its back legs. Then you "keep on lot
ting It go down your throat and pull
ing It up again." The narrator of this
added to Mr. T. W. Thompson, who
sets down these stories: "It's the
dear God's truth, young fellow, and It
cleared the phlegm out of his throat
footful, but wo wouldn't do such a
thing as that."
Number of Nails to a Horseshoe.
Centuries ago there lived a farrier,
Walter Ie Brun by name, whose dex
terity at the anvil on the occasion of
n great tilting meeting on the banks
of tho Thames wbb noticed by the then
reigning monarch, Edward III., who
rewarded the blacksmith by granting
him sufficient land adjoining the titlt
lng green for the erection thereon of a
force. As quit rent he had to present
annually to the King six horseshoed
and sixty-one horseshoe nails.
To tho modern mind tho number
of nails would appear to be superflu
ous, but when it is remembered that
tho horseshoes of that period required
ten nails apiece it will be seen that
tho calculations of Edward III. mere
ly allowed one "over" in case of acci
dent. Furthermore, the shoes were
nil to be for the horse's forefeet, from
which fact some historians draw tho
inference that the animals ridden la
the knights' tournaments wore en-
couraged to Injure each other with
their front hoofs.
Had Expressed No Opinion.
Here tho judge took a hand In ex
amining the venireman.
"You don't seem to understand tho
questions nddressed to you by tho
attorneys," ho said. "What they want
to know Is whether you have formed
or expressed any opinion in this case.
That Is to say, have you told anybody
whether or not you believe the defend
ant guilty of the crime charged
ngctnst him, or havo you said to any
body that you bolleve him to be Inno
cent?" "Courso not, judge," 'answered tho
venireman. "It ain't necessary for
mo to xpress no opinion auout mm.
I've kuowed him for thirty year, an'
V"w blame well he stole the cow "
"That will do, Mr. Skiles. You may
staud aside."-- Chicago Trlbuno.
Short Wills.
Apropos of Mr. Harrlman's short
simple will. It is of Interest to noto
that Lord Mansfield found half a sheet
of noto paper nmplo for tho disposal of
his worldly possessions. Sir James

Coquetry of Golf.
Golf Is the coquetto of games. It
