One of the most astonishing objects In the heavens, especially when photo- graphed, is the great nebula in the constellation Andromeda, which is vis- ible as a misty speck to the naked eye. It has long puzzled astronomers, be- cause while its structure—a serles of vast rings surrounding a central mass —suggests a gaseous constitution, its spectrum is continuous, Tresembling that of the sun. It has been suggested that it may be composed of stars con- stituting a universe external to ours. Recent studies of its parallax, how- ever, indicate that it is nearer to us than some of the well known stars, such as Capella, and Mr. J, Ellard Gore, the English astronomer, points out that if the Andromeda nebula were assumed to be an external uni- verse, having a diameter comparable with that of the Milky way, its mass would be forty million million million times the mass of the sun. This is regarded as incredible and so may be taken as an additional argument in favor of the view that this nebula is a member of our system.—Youth’s Companion. A Curious Superstition. There is a curious superstition com- mon to Shetlanders and Cingalese. How islanders so wide apart—some 15,000 miles—managed -to adopt each other’s views one does not know, but here is the fact. The rice cultivators of Ceylon and the fishermen of Shet- land resemble each other in one or two rather remarkable points. They re- frain from speaking of the implements of thelr calling by their names. They call them something else, by names known only to themselves. The reason is that 1f the evil spirit were to think that they were speaking of spades and rakes or of nets and hooks he would be tempted to damage them or even to appropriate them.® The train of thought is ‘the same with both races: “There s an evil spirit always on the lookout for opportunities of doing mis- chief. He even hears what we say. If we let him understand that we are talking about our implements and tools, we shall direct his attention to them and shall suggest to him a way of doing an injury. Therefore we will agree to call a boat or a spade by some fancy name known only to ourselves.” Coronets. The coronet of a duke consists of al- ternate crosses and leaves, the leaves being a representation of the leaves of the parsley plant. The princes of the blood royal also wear a similar crown. The state headgear of a marquis con- sists of a diadem surrounded by flow- ers and pearls placed alternately. Anm earl, however, has neither flowers nor leaves surmounting his circlet, but only points rising, each with a pearl on the top. A viscount has neither flowers nor points, but only the plain circlet adorned with pearls, which, regardless of number, are placed on the crown it- self. A baron has-only six pearls on the golden border, not raised, to dis- tinguish ‘him from an earl, and the number of pearls render his diadem distinct from that of a viscount. A Bit of Blue Sky. Professor John Tyndall, who, with many great gifts, possessed a singular skill in devising and conducting beau- tiful experimental illustrations, actual- ly produced in 1869 a bit of blue sky in the lecture room. In a glass tube three feet in length and three inches in diameter he exhausted the air until it Was less than one-tenth the density of the atmosphere we breathe and repre- sented the rarer air high overhead. Into this exhausted air he introduced nitrite of butyle vapor, which is ex- tremely volatile. Then a strong beam of light in a room otherwise dark was passed through the mixture, and in the "glass tube there glowed a beautiful blue cloud, rivaling in color the finest Italian sky.: Here was blue sky brought down to earth. According to History. A woman who belongs to a com- munity called the Sisters of St. John the Baptist not long ago spent a month in a backwoods district. Shortly after her arrival she went to the local post- office and inquired if any letters had come for Sister Bernardine. The rural postmaster looked bewildered. “Sister who?” he asked Incredulously. “Sister Bernardine,” repeated the lady, “a sister of St. John the Bap- tst.” “I think not,” he answered. Then, after some reflection, he added, “Say, ain't he been dead pretty near a hun- | ‘eekly. ~ An Awkward Player. In 1608 King James published his famous “Book of Sports” and, thinking to render the Presbyterian form of worship less rigid, orderéd that cer- tain of the sports therein commended should be played in the several church- yards every Sunday at the close of divine service. John Ross, a minister of Blairgowrle, adopted a novel method of withstanding the royal ordinance. He was a strong, athletic man and seemed much interested in the recrea- tions enjoined by the monarch. Foot- ball was selected by the parishioners of Blairgowrle from the list of “Sun- day gams ‘When the services of the church were completed Mr. Ross ap- peared among his people in the church- yard and joined them in their sport. None of the assemblage kicked more eagerly at the football than did the reverend incumbent, But constant misfortune seemed to attend him. Ev- ery kick missed the ball and fell heavi- Iy on the ankles of those who stood near. Apologies were promptly ten- dered and, of course, received, though every Sunday many of the parishion. ers returned home halting; Finally it was agreed that on account of the minister's awkwardness the games should be abandoned. Thus the in- genious divine gained his end and pre- vented compliance with the obnoxious order. Where Greek Met Greek. The marble clock in the dining room bad - just announced in mellow tones the hour of 3 a. m,, when the wife of the plumber nudged him and whis- pered nervously: “Horace, there’s a burglar in the house!” “There 1is, hey?” answered the hus- band, now thoroughly awake. “I'll see about him.” ‘With cynning stealth he got out of bed and tiptoed out of the room. For ten minutes no sound broke the awful stillness. Then the house shook with a crash. There was a century of si- lence. Then a chair fell, the front door slammed and a heavy bundle thumped down the front stairs and into the street. The terrified wife fainted, to be brought back to consciousness by the voice of her husband. “It's all right, dear, I threw him out,” he chuckled as he turned on the light. “But the scoundrel bad only $4.30 in his clothes.”—Judge. How Mayne Reid Won His Bride. It was through his novel, “The Scalp Hunters,” that Captain Mayne Reid won a bride. He was thirty years old when he met a.damsel of thirteen, with whom he at once fell in love. The child took no notice of him, but he gave her the story to read. Two years later the young lady was at a public meeting where Captain Reid spoke on behalf of the Polish refugees. “An electric thrill seemed to pass through me as he entered the room,” she said afterward, and when the meeting was over she went up to him. “I leave for London on the next train,” he said hur- riedly. “Please send me your ad- dress.” “I do not know where,” she replied, with some embarrassment. He Instantly handed out his card and was gone. A formal little note followed: “Dear Captain Reld—As you asked me to send you my address, I do so.” By return of post came the answer, “Only say that you love me and I will be with you at once,” and then the reply, " How's This? ‘We offer One Hundred Dollars Reward for gny caso of Catarrh that, cannot be cared by rrh Oure. oA} CHENEY & CO,, Toledo, 0.
