of the eyes for those who find their
sight beginning TO fail:
"Sit in such q position as will allow
the light to fall obliquely over the
shoulder upon the page or sewing.
Do not use the eyes for such purpo-
ses by an artificial light. Avoid the
special use OF the eyes in the morning
before breakfast. Rest thsm for half

by looking at things at a distance, or
at the sky; relief is Immediately felt
by so doing. Never pick any colleo

of the finger over the closed eyelids

/" The Whistle.H

sat on corn-sheaf one evening about
quitting time; @you have heard, I
dare say, OF the Danish boys whistle

The maiden had heard Of the won
derful things which could be accom-
plished 10y means of the magic whis-
tie, and, coloring slightly, said:
"And what would you do with IL,
pray?" while a smile played over her
beautiful face, extending clear round
to her ears. ac'
Il would blow It," he answered,
"and ther my fair maid would fly to
my eide and sit down on the same
corn sheaf with me, which would
make me extremely happy and make
it a matter OF supreme Indifference to

She smiled-and laid her fair arm
around his neck.

pletely by surprise, but managed tt

fessed to the writer. it was by all odds
the greatest effJrt of his life.
A young man OF his age is nevel

moment the nectar OF the situation
so to speak, he exclaimed:
