NEAR STGHTEDNESS.

Where acquired near-sightedness e1-
lists it may have begun to make its ap-
pearance in early life, perhaps almost as
soon as the child was set at his books.
Unless it appears before the age of Is it
Is not likely to appear at all. But
great many who think their eyes perfect
and, indeed, really have perfect eyes
IL comparison with those more griev-
lousy afected-are really more or less
myopic. Not only is the vision of ma
j0r-ty Of men and women defective in one
respect or another, but it has been es-
tablished beyond reasonable doubt that
II al highly-civilized communities my
opla Is developed in at least 60. and per-
haps %, per cent. Of the pupils who
reach the highest grades or go through
the last years Of school attendance. The
disease, 1t clearly appears, is progress
i've. The eye gradually elongates, or is
otherwise altered in structure or form,
reaching III most instances a constant
point Of misshapement, when the near
sightedness becomes fixed, but in some
cases continuing to get out of order
through all the years of book study, un-
til the Goth or 25th year, or even almost
until the close of life. In most near
sighted persons the acuteness as well as
the extent of vision is impaired, and in
the worst cases Of progressive short sight
the retina suffers serious damage, or ab-
solute blindness supervenes. Proper
glasses may enable short-sighted persons
to see comfortably, but they are always
voted by their wearers a nuisance, and
they do not restore diseased eyes to
health, or prevent them, under certain
circumstances, from becoming more and
more unsound.

PRESENTATION OF Voo0.

The increasing cost of wood in this
country has led to great number of
experiments in preserving all kinds of
wooden structures exposed to the wealth
er from decay. Among the more recent
plans suggested is one for impregnating
wood with asphalt, combined with some
antiseptic material. The finished wood,
ready to be put together, is first sub
lnitted to heat to drive out the moisture,
and is then placed in hot bath COM
posed chiefly Of asphalt and carbolic
acid. On cooling, the solvent of the
asphalt evaporates, leaving a skin or
coating Of the asphalt on the surface of
the wood chat resists water and keeps
the ant;Nr tic material securely locked
within tx pores of the wood. The ex-
terror q. he wood presents a smooth,
biac1 suT-ace that does not need to be
painted. The process is about to be
tried upon large scale. Century Nag.
