PRETTY ExpERIMESr.-Professor Rog-
ers has solved the problem of +" Seeing
through mill stone." In paper read
before the Scientific Association at New
port he says:
Take sheet Of foolscap or letter pa
per. roll it up SO that the opening at one
end shall be large enough to take the
full size of the eve, and at the other end
lei the opening be not half 50 large.
Take it in the right hand, holding it be-
tween the thumb and fore finger place
the large end to the right eye and look
through it with both eyes, open to the
light You piH sec hole through your
hand. If you take it in your left hand
and hold it to your left eye, it will be the
same. You will in both cases be aston
ished to sec hole in your hand. The
illusion is most complete"
From this and other experiments the
Professors concludes that an impression
made on the retina of either eye cannot
OF itself enable us to determine on which
retina it is received, and that the usual
perception belongs to the part OF the op-
tIcal apparatus near or within the brain
which belongs in common to both eyes.

A Hero.

John B. Cough, the celebrated temp
eranco lecturer, who has returned to the
U. s. from visit to his native England,
and who recently spoke at the Cooper In.
stitute. N. Y, related in one Of his recent
speeches the following anecdote
John Maynard was well known in the
Lake district as God fearing, honest,
intelligent pilot. He was pilot on a
steamer between Detroit and Buffalo, one
summer afternoon. At that time those
steamers did not carry boats. Smoke was
seen ascending from below, and the cap
tain called out, I" Simpson, 60 down and
see what that smoke is" Simpson came
up with his face as pale as ashes, and
said" Captain, the ship is on fire r.
Then Fire fire fire on shipboard u
All hands were called up. Buckets OF
water were dashed upon the fire, but in
vain. There were large quantities Of
rosin ard tar on board, and it was useless
to try to save the ship.
The passengers rushed forward and
asked the pilot. How far are we from
Buffalo ?" "Seven miles" How long
before we reach it?" "Three quarters
Of an hour, at our present rate OF steam.' .
Is there any danger ?" Danger here
see the smoke bursting out! Go for
ward, If you wish to save your lives !
Passengers and crew, men, women and
children, crowded to the forward part Of
the ship. John Maynard stood at the
helm. The flames burst forth in a sheet
Of fire clouds of smoke arose the cap
tain cried out through his trumpet
John Maynard p AYE, aye, sir p
care you at the helm ?" Aye, aye,
sir y How does she head % South
east-by-ea SIR" Head her south
east and run her on Shore" Nearer.
nearer, yet nearer she approached the
shore. Again the captain cried out
John Maynard !" The response came
feebly, "Aye, aye, sir I" "Can you
hold on FIVE minutes longer, John ~
"By Gods help | will - The old man s
hair was scorched from the scalp; one
hand disabled. his knee upon the slanch-
ion, and his teeth set; with his other
hand upon the wheel, he stood firm as a
rock. He beached the ship-every man,
woman, and child was saved, as John
Maynard dropped, and his spirit took its
fight to his God. [Sensation.
He sacrificed his life to save the lives
of others. 1t is worth greater effort tc
save man from moral ruin-to save 9
child from drunkenness than from FIRE.
