.4buses Of lie Eye.-The last number of Dr.
Alcott's Library of Health, published by G..
w. Light, contains continuation of the Ed
itor's excellent remarks relating to the abuses
Of the eye. The Doctor says that rubbing
the eyes when we first wake, or indeed at a.
ny other time, should be wholly avoided
The Germans have proverb which Illus
trates the importance of avoiding any irrita-
ton of the delicate membrane of the eye, e.
venb by the fingers. They say-"Never touch
your eyes except with your elbow
OF eye ,cGfers the Doctor does not seem to
have an exalted opinion. Hear him:
Thousands of eyes-we should say rather
thousands of millions--have been hurried on
to destruction by these usually pernicious ap-
plications. THE student whose eyes are af-
fccied," says DR.. Reynolds, "should never
use stronger collyrum than good river wa

informed physician
He enforces this advice by an anecdote Of
celebrated eye water which made the for
tune OF family in Paris by the wonderful
cures 1T wrought, but which proved to be the
tcafcr Of Tie rirer Seine
vi sympathy he discourseth as follows
Let IL ever be understood as fundamen-
TAI law OF the human system-one which has
been understood by medical men for two thou
sand years or more-that if at any time one
member or organ of the human system suf-
iers, all the other members or organs suffer
win 1T; and If one member or organ is bene-
h'ted or improved, all the others are benefit
ted with 1t. Thus it is in a remarkable de-
gree with the eye. Jfthat suffers in any way,
the whole system suffers more or less with
III and II any part or parts Of the system,
however distant from the eye, come to suffer,
the eye suffers with them in its turn. The
mutual fdmilylike relation Of the members OF
organs OF the human body-this readiness to
be made more miserable or more happy by
the misery or happiness Of each other-we
call sympothy."

destroying black beetles and cockToaches is,
to stTew the roots of black hellebore on the
