Oct. 10, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Schroer observed a comet in the northeast and have been watching it since.

Another strange feature of it is that it is about the same height in the sky each morning as it was when first seen by them.

LEE’S IDEA OF A GENTLEMAN

flrwt Southerner's High Ideals Shown by Memorandum Found Among His Papers. Lee hated parade, display and ceremony, hated above all things being made an object of public gaze and adulation, declares a writer in the Atlantic. His idea of high position was high responsibility; a superior was simply one who had larger duties, and the mark of a gentleman was a keen sense of the feelings and susceptibilities of others. Xo one has ever expressed this attitude more delicately than he himself in a memorandum found among his papers after his death. ' The forbearing use of power does not only form a touchstone, but the manner in which an individual enjoys certain advantages over others is a test of a true gentleman. “The power which the strong have over the weak, the magistrate over the citizen, the employer over the employed, the educated over the unlettered, the experienced over the confiding, even the clever over the silly—the forbearing or inoffensive use of all this power or authority or a total abstinence from it when the case admits it will show the gentleman in a plain light. “The gentleman does not needlessly and unnecessarily remind an offender of a wrong he may have committed against him. He cannot only forgive, he can forget; and he strives for that nobleness of self and mildness of character which impart sufficient strength to let the past be but the past. A true man of honor feels humbled himself when he cannot help humbling others.”

UP TO THE FREEZING POINT

Ample Cause Why Miss Oldgiri , Should Heave a Sigh on Awak- ' ing From Dream. Th# shimmering moonlight silvered the placid water. The tinkle of a banjo down in the cabin floated up the companionway and spread itself around the deck. The girl leaned against the rail. The captain was first. “Miss Oldgiri,” he said softly, “from the first minute you decorated this ship with your charming presence, I hare worshiped you. Yea, worshiped. Worshiped. As an old sea dog. the word ought to have ‘ship’ in it somewhere. Will you go halves with me for the rest of this eqfthly cruise?” The girl was just about to answer when the first mate appeared. “Hear me before you promise,” he begged. “If you don’t make me the happiest man on earth I will jump overboard and stick out my tongue at the life boat. iSay, yesr; ah, s’yes!” Softly, though. The second mate is approaching. “Hear me, ere you decide,” he besought. “I love you so much it’s a shame. Nobody did. Nobody could. Won’t you?” With a start the girl awoke and rubbed her eyes with two knuckles and a sigh. It was her thirty-second birthday, and thirty-two is freezing point.

Cossack and Saint.

A Paris contemporary by way of illustration as to how some persons discharge their religious obligations relates a story of a Cossack who was overtaken by a terrible storm of thunder and lightning. In his terror he prayed to the saint to save him and promised if only he once more reached his home he would sell his horse and the proceeds should be spent in candles In honor of the Saint. The saint, pleased with so generous an offer, stayed the storm and the Coesack reached home In safety. This is how he discharged his vow: The next day he went to the market a cock and a horse. His method of sale was this: He would only sell the two together, the horse at 30 kopecks (about 15 pence) and the cock at 200 rubies (about £2O). After a time the Cossack found a purchaser on these terms and faithful to his vow the Cossack devoted 15 pence to the purchase of candles for the altar of his patron saint.

MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE

Mr. Newlywed Equal to Fine Distinction Between His “Cherub" and Neighbor's “Brat," "Our likes and dislikes are guided by the personal equation—whatever that is,” commented the bachelor. “Indeed?” queried the suffragette. “Yes; the property we buy at a real estate forced sale is always the highest and driest, while the other fellow's property, we are willing to swear, is under water.” “Are you getting ready to argue?” "No, I’m still Unmarried. But I wanted to show how different we all feel about ourselves and our property from other people and their property. You know, I have a room in a flat with a young married couple. I have one there so that I can observe the martial—or is it marital? —existence. A couple of months ago the stork brought them a baby.” “A boy or a girl?” asked the suffragette revealing a spark of wolhanhood; then she added, quickly, “but never mind; it will be a voter, anyway, some day.” "On the floor below us Is another went on the Bachelor. “The other day the quiet of the house was disturbed by lusty yelling. “ *ls that our little cherub crying?’ asked the mother. “ ‘N T o,’ the father answered; *it's the brat downstairs.’ ”

Couldn’t Escape.

He was one of those timid, tinytoned chaps who become enamored by mistake, and live in perpetual fear of a pending engagement ring. He himself had become enamored of a sweet and soulful maiden, whose languishing expression tore him between delight and fear. At the conclusion of his first “call” she asked: “When are you coming again, dear?” He seizeu the wrong hat from the rack in his confusion. “Er—-what about some time next week?” he hazarded. A look of disappointment came Into the fair one’s eyes. “Next week?” «he said. "Yes, that will do lovely! Come round tomorrow night, dear, and we’ll decide definitely upon the day.”—-Answers.

Twin Gods of War and Melody.

How do statesmen get themselves Into the frame of mind to declare war? According to a popular German story the method in Bismarck’s case taj.B66 was one that would hardly be suspected. His subordinate Kendell was au expert pianist, and. Sir Mountstuart Grant Duff put it, “used, it is said, to fulfill toward him the function which David fulfilled toward Saul.” On on* evening Bismarck was unusually moody and Kendell surpassed himself at the piano. “Thank you, my dear Kendell,” said Bismarck finally, “you have soothed me and done me so much gfeod; my mind Is made np; we shall declare war against Austria.”

Wall Colors and Light.

In painting or papering the walls of a room the question often arises what color reflects the most and what the least light? Recent experiments in Germany gave the following results: Dark blue reflects 6% per cent, of the light falling upon it; dark green, about 10 per cent.; pale red, a little more than 10 per cent.; dark yellow, 20 per cent.; pale blue, 30 per cent.; pale yellow, 40 per cent.; pale green, 46% per cent.; pale orange, nearly 55 per cent.; pale white, 70 per cent. Glossiness and varnish increase the amount of light reflected. —Harper’s Weekly.
