Loss of Sight.

A little accident, carelessness and ig-
norance in regard to the condition,
strength and power of the eye to endure
has given to many an early blindness.
1t may not be generally understood that
reading ON thecars, steamboat, coach, OF
anything in motion, is intended to i'm
pair the oversight,
The sculptor Crawford was accus-
toned all his life time to read lying
down. To this, very largely, the physi-
clans attribute the loss of his eye Very
soon cancer formed in the other, which
caused his death.
The great historian, Prescott, lost his
eyesight when q student, by a bit of
bread thrown in sport by a fellow
student at the table. A pair of scissors
or fork, thrown in sport or anger, has
caused the loss of an eve which the
wealth of the world cannot replace. A
friend, who was very ambitious to finish
a set of linen for her brothers spent al
most a winter In the stitching, sitting
up often late at night over the work, in
which she took great delight. The re-
suit was, the nerve of the eve was so
injured that she was obliged wholly
TO give mp sewing, knitting and read
ing, under penalty of becoming perfect
ly blind.
A young lady, who lived but ten miles
by train from school, used to spend the
time in studying certain lesson while
she was riding down In the morning.
The result wus a severe affection of the
ewes, which disabled her from study for
a long time. 1t is always hurtful to the
eyes to read in the train, though we may
not see the effect so plainly when it
happens only occasionally. A steady
practice like this, young ladies, may
produce even worse results when the
system is In bad state.
Never read by twilight, nor before
eating in the morning. The little you
gain in time will be doubly lost before
hfe's shutdown.
know a young clergyman who is a
remarkably well-bred man, but whose
eyes are perfect deformity. He said
he ruined them by reading at night,
long and intently, when he was getting
his education. He seems to have no
control of the lids, which twitch and
move in most grotesque manner
Don't fancy you can dc what youplease
with your eyes, and yet have them serve
you faithfully. Take good care of
them as you would of gold, for gold can
never replace lost eyesight.

CAN IT BE TRUE ?-Within the last
few months a considerable number of
persons have called upon DIR. Walker,
the proprietor of the popular medicine
known as VINEGAR Buffers, and assured
him that, in their belief, his preparation
is an infallible antidote for rum and
tobacco. The minute details which
have been furnished him forbid him to
doubt the accuracy of the statements.
This new claim of great remedy to the
confidence of tie public will give a vast
and well-deserved impulse to its popu-
larity. Heretofore the BITTERs have
been recognized as pure vegetable
tonic and corrective, devoid of alcohol,
and thoroughly adapted to the cure of
stomach and bowel complaints, nervous
disorders, bilious affections, muscular
diseases, and, indeed, majority of the
ailments within the reach of medicine /;
but if it will also cure the craving for
liquor and tobacco, philosophers, states
men and thelogians ought to unite their
voices in its praise. Can the good
news be true? 1t is easy to test the
question. 3

The Boy Butler.

In his younger days Ben Butler was a
school-teacher at Dracut, little place
opposite Lowell, and among his scholars
was boy named Ray, who subsequent
" became an Episcopal clergyman, and
finally developed into newspaper writ
er. Butler was then tank, iong-haired,
cross-eyed, queer-looking character, and
was the terror of the scholars. He often
got into an uncomfortable rage with
them, and fell upon them with tongue
and rattan. One day Ray gave him Of
Tense in some way. Butler made a
speech at him, wild in its invective very
much like his more recent speeches),
threatening. him with murder, slaughter
and all sorts of horrors, and, finally,
losing all self-control, he made rush
for the offender, who, however, sprang
for the door, got out, and took to his
heels. Butler seized a big jack-knife
which was lying open on his desk,
leaped over the benches, and, with hat
less head, heelless slippers, and long
tailed coat, gave chase. The boy was
feet of foot, and ran for dear life, get
ting ahead of the stun bling teacher.
Butler kept up the race, however, yell
Ing dlIcI HIS uyllS N1ctlIi, pursueu ullu
through Dracut, crossed the bridge over
the Merrimac river at the height of his
speed, entered Lowell at full gallop,
blowing tremendously, and rushed
through the streets after his prey, to
the amazement of the men, women and
children who happened to witness the
scene. 1t was Big Bethel affair or
Fort Fisher explosion. The boy escaped,
and, getting to his home after a two
hours race, made faces from the second
story at Butler, who, bursting with
chagrin, had to pick up his collapsed
nerves and wend his bareheaded way
back to Dracut with the closed jack
knife in his pocket The story would
not be worth recalling if it were not so
very characteristic of Butler.

CABs.-London is famous for its luxu-
rious cabs, of which some ten thousand
are employed by the city. The rates are
cheap, for two passengers can be con-
veyed distance of two miles for twen-
ty-five cents. A novelty in the shape of
cabs is one fitted to accommodate four
persons it is set on very small wheels.
The idea of the inventor was that such
vehicles may be started and stopped
more easily than the large wheeled ma
chimes. The traction of the small
wheels is little more, but it is contend
ed that the sum of the work upon the
horse, in ordinary cab traffic, is less
than the large wheeled vehicles.
Another improvement for two-wheeled
cabs is shifting ballast box which the
driver can readily move at pleasure, and
thus counterbalance the weight of the
vehicle in respect to its pressure upon
the horses back, to correspond with the
number of passengers occupying the in
terrio of the cab.
