A Close Shave.
Recently, says the Atlanta Consti
tution, Camille Flammarion, the noted
French astronomer, foretold in a
series of magazine articles the speedy
destruction of the world by a comet.
Within the past few days the new
comet now visible has come nearer
to us than any other comet of modern
times. It was less than 38,000,000
miles distant from the earth, the
other day, when it wheeled about aud
began to travel in another direction.
The seientistists regard this as a
close shave, although the average
reader will think that 38,000,000
miles is a safe distance. It should
be recollected, however, that this ce
lestial strsnger travels at the rate of
3,000,000 miles a day. If it had uot
changed its course it would have
struck our globe with a dull thud
next Sunday and there is no telling
what would have been the result.
It may be that a comet is not
equipped for destruction, but nobody
cares to risk a collision. Flamma
rion may be right and the earth may
some day be destroyed, in the man
ner he points out. The astronomers
have conflicting theories on the sub
ject, and as we know so little about
the matter, everybody will feel re
lieved to know that the new luminary
is going away from us.
TheLittle Leaks,
Young man, it is the small expeuses

Ten cents for cigars, liquids and the

It fs false pride, a wrong deference
to a wrong, that forbids any econo

little leak that always empties the
barrel; it is the small expenses run
ning up into hundreds of dollars in a
year that bankrupts the majority of
men. It is the trimming of a dress
that makes the bill so heavy. It is
the little wastes that keep thousands
of noses to the grindstone and sends
many to .the poor bouse.
