The Eyesight.

Millions blindness, says DIR. Hall, was
the result of overwork and dyspepsia.
One of the most eminent American
divines having, for some time, been COM
PEELED to forego the pleasure of reading,
has spent thousands of dollars in value,
and lost years of time, in consequence of
getting up several hours before day and
studying by artificial light. His eyes
never got we'll.
Multitudes of men and women have
made their eyes weak for life by the too
free use of the eyesight, reading small
print and doing fine sewing. In view of
these things, it is well to observe the fol-
lowing rules in the use of the eyes:
Avoid all sudden changes between
light and darkness.
Never begin to read or write or sew
for several minutes after coming from
darkness to a bright light.
Never read by twilight, or moonlight,
or on very cloudy day.
Never read or sew directly in front of
the light or window or door.
1t is best to have the light fall from
above obliquely over the left shoulder.
Never sleep so that on the first waking
the eyes shall open on the light of a
window.
Do not use the eyesight by light SO
scant that it requires an effort to dis
criminate.
Too much light creates a glare, and
pains and confuses the sight. The mo,
ment you are sensible of an effort to dis
tinguish, that moment cease and take a
walk or ride.
AS the sky is blue and the earth green
it would seem that the ceiling should be
a blush tinge, and the carpet green, and
the walls of some yellow tint.
The moment you are prompted to rub
the eyes, that moment cease using them

The Colorado Cardiff Giant.

A telegram from Denver, Col, contains
the following: "Mr. Conants discovery
of the petrified missing link or statue Of
an ancient man was yesterday exhibited
for several hours. Crowds poured In and
gazed with varied emotions upon the
giant as he lay on the back on boards, en-
circled by sound, temporary fence, to
keep hands from injuring him. Prof.
Semper, of Wurtemburg, Germany, says
he does not believe the figure to be of
archaeological origin, nor petrifac-
ton, and says it iseasy in fossiliferous re-
mains generally to trace the outline be-
tween the bone and flesh, the substance
connecting the joints being different from
the substance on the body, and there is
more difference between the substance on
the body and limbs and that connecting
the iointsth is found in the substance
connecting thelegsfor instance. There
mains should be more shrunken, and, If a
petrifaction, should have hair. DR.. Denni-
son. saws one arm from the elbow to the
wrist is lower by an inch than the other.
The arm is out of proportion to the legs;
also the neck, hips, and head are not
proportioned. The abdomen, high In
dead persons, falls to level with the
hips. The substance is said to dissolve
in nitric acid. The majority think it is
piece of statuary or clay image of very
ancient origin. Semper says the head
is similar to the heads of the ancient
EAztecs. 1t is certainly great curiosity,
and, if not fraud, a most wonderful,
awe inspiring figure. If tits a petrified
human body, the four inches of tail will
90 far to sustain Darwin's theory, and
J Supply the missing link"

Women Swimmers Miss Bennett
Teaches the Art of Swimming.
New York Evening Post.l


The days of the nymphs are returning.
Miss Kate Bennett, who for several years
has had the reputation of an expert
swimmer, and her sister, Miss Eliza Ben
nett, gave yesterday afternoon in a pri-
yate bath-house in this city an instruct
i've and very pleasing exhibition of their
prowess in the water. Miss Eliza Ben
nett is the young woman who swan across
the North River few days ago.
The girls and young women who dis
ported themselves yesterday in the Hud-
son were, it is believed, not less agile,
pretty and graceful than Europa, Helen
and other swimmers of the gentler sex in
the days and streams of old. Some of
them had taken only three or four les
sons, but the visitors who watched their
movements did not see the need of any
more instruction. One little girl, Miss
Dexter, only seven years old, swan as
easily and lithely as swan in the
basin.
Miss Kate Bennett, of course, received
the most attention. She was dressed in
a plain suit of dark wooden underwear
without any sleeves and without stock
ings. She stays in the water with COM
fort for three hours, and says that she
never chills." She is full of energy
and enthusiasm. Her method of teach
ing is this: First, she shows her pupil the
proper motion for the hands aud arms,
placing the pupil fiat on the chest with
the feet touching the bottom. Shallow
water, say three feet deep, is chosen for
the first lesson. Then she teaches the
proper motion for the lower limbs, and,
in order to make the limbs supple, takes
hold of the feet and exercises them in
the appropriate positions while the
pupil is lying on the water with hands
holding on to the wooden steps leading
down to it. Finally, she again puts her
pupil fairly in the water in the same re-
cumbent position, directs her to move
arms and limbs according to instruc-
tions, and helps hera little with one
hand placed under her. After the sec
ond or third stroke the pupil is swim
ming independently although uncon-
scious of doing so; for Miss Bennett keeps
saying, "Go on, that's right, / am hold
ing you," when really she is not holding
her at all. The art has been learned,
and practice soon gives entire confidence.
Miss Bennett does not use corks, RATS,
life-preservers, or flats of any kind. Her
little white lie, l am holding you,"
does the business, she says.
Miss. Eliza Bennett says that the easiest
way to rescue person in the water who
cannot swim, is to put him on his back,
hold him lightly by his clothes at or
above the waist, with your lefthand, and
then swim off with your right hand, and
on your side. Or, if the person to be res
cued is moderately self-possessed, and
will simply put his hand upon the
shoulder of the swimmer, the latter can
use both hands for swimming, and secure
the safety of the former. In either case,
only slight assistance is necessary. The
person who cannot swim should keep cool
if possible, and above all should not clasp
his arm around the swimmer, If such
person, in deep water, she says, would
only let her alone, she could easily res
cue him from drowning.

A Sioux War.Dance.

A correspondent, visiting the Sioux,
writes to the Globe Democrat: A day was
set, and the Drummer and White Shield
returned to their camp to tell their war
riors to get ready. At noon of one the
warmest days horrible pounding and
screeching were heard in the distance,
and, going out, wesaw bedlam advancing
one hundred Indians painted red, yel-
low. blue and green, ornamented with
feathers and strings of small bells,
were advancing beating a tom-tom,
screeching with all their might, and
STOPPING over from one foot to the other
Arrived in front of the house, they
stopped and walked ON to the parade,
ranged themselves in semi-circle, put
their blankets under them and waited
for the musicians to begin. The six or
eight members of their band, wrapped in
gray blankets, were huddled around Ia
bass-drum, each armed with substan-
tial drum-stick, and as they began
pounding the dancers set up strange
chorus of shrill chirping cries, and then
darting to the middle, began dancing back
and forth, around and through in con-
fused mass, themselves still singing, their
bells rattling and feathers moving. The
step consisted in raising one foot, up, and
then changing positions, carrying it out
to the end. Two pauses are made to give
chance for breaking and they began
with redoubled yigor. A feathered ar
row was stuck in the ground, and around
it they circled and hopped more madly
than ever, and at the second interlude
White Shield, a magnificent savage, over
six feet in height, broad shouldered and
muscular as Hercules, stepped to the
center and related some of his own glo-
rious deeds. As his speech advanced his
hearers grunted their appreciation, and,
when he had finished relating the de-
struction of his enemy in the open field,
an applausive Howw came from the
red coryphees.
