precisely the dlroclloa In which tbo orbit of
too dead oomot runs down to cut the ter

"No danger need ba apprehended from the

"Ulela's history has bcon nn eventful one.
The cotnot was discovered in 1820 by Illohi ,
nrt Austrian onicor , and ten days later by
the French astronomer , Oamb.irt. Both ot ) .
norvors computed Its orbit. It was novel1
Visible to tt\o naked oyc , but In Sir John
IleUchcl's grout rulloctorlt was described as
a conspicuous nebula of such tenuity that , a
knot of mlnulo stars of tlio seventeenth
magnlludo was vlslolo through the comet.
Yet the UopUi of cometarv matter througti
which muli faint stellar rr.vs punctutou un-
dlnimod was , near tbo cantr.il parts of thu
Klobo , not loss than ( .0,000 miles.

"It Is curious thot this seemingly harmless
Dody gave occasion to the fust of tbo since
numerous 'comet scares. ' Certain calcula
tions published by Olbor. showed tliitt on
October'J'J. ' 1SUJ , n considerable portion of Its
nebulous lull would actually sweep ever the
spot which , a month latar , would bo occupied
by tbo earth. It needed no moio tobot the
popular mind In n ferment.
"And yet the two bodlc } were never really
within 15,000,001) milci of each other. At Us
next return in 183' ' ) , It failed to bo observed ,
but it nmuly compensated aitronomcra by
npDcarlii d'ouulo In ISl'i. The hairy star
had nctuallv spill Into two. The twin com *
ets traveled along sldo by suto for
tnoro than four months , on parallel tracks ,
&s tranquilly as If nothing unusual had hap
pened ; but Internally both wt.ro intensely
active , ouch developing a bright nucleus and
stiort tall , although their slra had exhibited
neither of these siijns of ccmctary vitality
Each alternately outshone the other , and

Sure enough , tbo comet was tborc , just i

occurrence toox place In ISftt and 187- . The
mooting was nbsolutclv Inoffensive.
"As regards tbo olTccl of the full uf a

ble that a comQt may enter our solar system
from without , so accurately nlmcd that It
will hit the sun. In that case the eomotnry

MllUltllp Of ClllllPK.
"Any tiorson who will redact but n moment
'
ment 'upon Iho physical constitution of
comets will llnd no cause o ( . iippiehenslon In
n frloodly visit from n 'hairy star.1 Many
reasons load us to suppose that tbo head of h
cnmot Is n swarm of mutcorlo stones widely
separated , though wbotbcr thojo Iron stocos
uru many foot In diameter , or only n fuw
inches or only n few thousandths of an Inch ,
llko nartlelcs of dust , no ono can say , hi
fact , It , now scorns oulto llkoly that the
greatest portion of n comet's mass Is imulo
up of such pirtlclcj of solid mutter , carrying
with them a certain quantity of enveloping
gas. The tall U simply an assemblage of
cometary dust particles repelled bv both the
comet and the sun. Tails nro of three typo" ,
namely , lone , straight rays probably com-
poaod of hydrogen , thocurvod , plu i ollku
train of hydrocarbon gas , and tno abort ,
stubby brushes of Iron vapor.
"If ouo has any dlflloulty In reconcil
ing the theory of stoao particles with
the layers or tails of vapor , he must remember -
bor ttint vaporous masses such as clouds , fog
and smoku are teally eomposea of miiiuto ,
separate particle ) of water or sollit caroon.
Hence It will appear that the tall which xvo
see on ono evening Is not absolutely the same
wo saw the evening bafora , H portion
of the latter having bcun dissipated while
new matter has taken its nlncc , as with tbo
stream of smoke from : i chimney.
"i'hcro has been much discussion whether
comets shine by light reflected or Intrinsic ,
That their liitlit must in somu way bo derived
"
from tbo nun"seems evident from the fluctua
tions of brilliancy they undergo as they approach
preach and rcccdo from ttic sun , and dually
disappear from sheer faint ness. If n comet
sbono with Us own Independent light , llko a
star , it would only growsmaller as it receded
from the earth , noi fainter , liiit wln'.o ' tbo
light of n comet is undoubtedly reflected
sunlight , It Is not so altogether. For it often
vnnoj greatly and almost , capriciously , \\ne- \ \
In.t out for an evening with un
wonted splendor and thun collapsing , like c ,
inlnd-rcadcr , far below the normal stato.
/This indicates an intrinsic ligbt-evolvlng
action , akin to phosphorescence , or , tnoro
correctly , electricity , which Is excited ba-
twoen the comolary particles by the sun's
Influence. Comets are not then , It , thus
seems , bodies incandescent through solar
heat , llko globing coals on the irr.uo , but , as
1'rof. Nuwton expresses It. 'sandbanks,1
that Is , swarms of solid particles of unknown
size , glowing by oloutrlclty and moving in a
gaseous envelope. .And this u compatible
with a relatively low tomniraturs. In nart ,
the gaseous spectrum of comets is certainly
duojto rclloutod sunlight ; In part , it is llitoly ,
to the ignition of minute solid particles.
Tint Origin ui Comets.
"Having thus disposed of the Interesting
question of thu niturn and light of comets ,
wo may , by way or conclusion , say a word on
the orfgin of comets. It is obvious tnat those
which movu in parabolic orbits cannot taa
citizens of our solar family , But as to Biela
HUU other periodic visitors it is a question
whether they nro nutivoborn or merely
naturalized. Did the ; originate it our sys
tem or are they captives ( When n comet
enters tbo system from an inllnilo distance
and comes near a largo planet , the cnances
are that it will deviate from its course to llnd
itself numbered among the satellites of tbo
planet. In this manner the cornel Blola
was added to tno retinue of Jupiter.
"In a similar manner Neptune has cap-
lured six , Uranus three ; Saturn stands responsible -
sponsiblo for two and colossal Jove has a
largo family of sixteen. If Proc-
tor's theory were correct that
tbo comets of Jupiter's family once formed a
portion ot Its mass nud woio at some lima
Ignomlnlously ejected with a velocity suf-
llolent to set thorn free in space , wo might
account for the roving disposition of the
Biolas nnd look upon their reverses as
tbo necessary consequences of early Injuries
nnd n shattered coaMltution. Nutnrally the
comotsarc free and moveln prodigiously"long
ellipses. Tnls bidng so It follows
that their condition piovions to being
attracted uy tbo sun or kidnaped by planetary -
ary pirates , was ono of relative"loposo. .
Those were halcyon days when they shared
tbo movement of translation through space
of the solar family. The 'cosmlcal current , '
which bc.ir.3 us with our sun to an unknown
goal in space , carries nUu with it nebulous
masses oi undefined extent at an undo lined
distance. Detached fiagmonts , continually
entering tbo sphere of the sun's attraction ,
lilt across our skies under the form of
comets. Those are , however , so far stangors
to our system that they took no part In Its
formation. They are , perhaps , survivals of
n state of things anterior to our solar family ,
< "ben thu chaos from which sun and planets
were , by dlvlno doereo , subsequently to
cinnrgo , had not as yet separately begun
to be. "

Strictly
Pure White Lead
is the Best Paint.
Care is necessary though , to
obtain strictly pure , as the
market is flooded with so-
called Pure White Leads that
in reality contain but very little
white lead.
The following analyses of
two of these misleading brands
show the exact proportion of
genuine white lead they con
tain. The analyses describe
the labels and brands on the
packages and give the con
tents as follows :
Misleading Brands
"C. F. Lawson & Co. Strictly Pure Will *
Lead. " KcJ label , with brush , on which i :
printed , "Guaranteed to be stiictly pure.
forfeited Unadulterated. "
Materials Proportions Analyzed by
Barytcs 58.10 per cent , j'
Oxide of Zinc 24.90 per cent. Milwaukee.
White Lead 13.60 per cent. .
Calcium Car
bonate 3 , so per cent.
"Masury's Railroad White Lead. " White
label , marlted "Railroad White Lead. 35 ;
pure ; John W. Masury fi. Son , New York
and Chicago , warranted superior. "
Materials Proportions Analyzed by
Oxide oT Zink 55.70 per cent. Ledoux & Co. ,
Uarylca 45.30 per cent. New Vork.
We have a book which gives
the analyses of a large number
of misleading brands. If you are
going to paint it will pay you
to send for it.
In Painting'
use strictly pure White Lead
( see that you get either
"Southern , " "Collier , " or
"Red Seal" ) , tint it with the
National Lead Co.'s
, Pure White Lead
Tinting Colors , -
and you will have the best
paint that it is possible to put
on a building.
