Another Belief Shattered.

One by one the cherished beliefs of
the past are swept away, or attempted
to be swept away, by some smart Aleck
who can't find anything better to do.
Nothing is sacred from their touch.
Stories that have been handed down
from generation to generation as
gospel truths are pronounced fables or
myths or downright prevarications,
even though they have been implicitly
believed in for centuries.
According to these ghouls there was
no William Tell, archer extraordinary;
or ut least, if such parsonage really
existed, he never shot an apple from
the head of his boy; the story of
Washington and his Ratchet is laughed
to scorn; Leander never swan the
Tablespoonful wasn't such devil of
a swimmer anyway; Shakespeare, the
"divine bard," did not write the plays
credited to him, but Bacon did, and so
on, and so forth.
Almost every week some new theory
is advanced regarding something that
has endeared itself TO the people from
long association, and one of the latest
is that CASTLE soap is not made in Cas-
tile, and moreover, instead of being
the ne plaIS ultra and de n,0TtuiS nil niSi
bonam of saponaceous purity, the very
best of it is made from rancid olive
oil and other unknown refuse. Think
of it, gentle reader-the beautifully
notified soap which erstwhile played
such an important part in your very
first bath, and in the additions of a
large part of the children in the civil
lied world, is said to be a likely cause
of most skin diseases so prevalent,
such as letter, salt rheum, ringworm,
SPAWN, st. Vitus Dance, string-halt,
eczema, sea sickness, blind staggers,
pole evil, rash, pimples, tistula, and
many others.
This attack on CASTLE soap by ply
slcians is accounted for on one hypothe-
sis, however. Some of the diseases
enumerated above are constantly oc-
curing among wealthy families,
where the utmost attention Is paid to
cleanliness; and the physicians, un-
able to give any better reason, and
knowing that the cause is expected to
be explained, fall back on CASTLE soap,
used IN infancy, even if there hasn' t
been piece in the house for years.
1t is Just barely possible that civil
lied people use too much soap, as fire.
quently ablutlons may have tenden-
cy to open the pores of the skin for the
admission of molecules, microbes, in
fusoria and various other parasites
which the science of the last decade
has brought to light. Savages and
others not addicted to the use of soap
to any great extent are, we believe,
comparatively free from cutaneous
eruptions, and it may be worth the
while of some M. ID: To investigate and
see if we as nation don't wash too
much; or, the washing being all right
as to frequency, whether we thorough
ly rinse the soap off after each bath.
That may be the cause of the trouble.

Neglecting Home Talent.

There are artists and musicians
among us who have won fame and for
tune. But for one that Is successful
scores struggle against the petty jeal-
ousy of their countrymen and poverty
produced by this foreign craze. 1t Is
a notorious fact that Americans who
have painted pictures and published
music under their own names have
been complete failure; but on ASSUME
ing foreign, high-sounding name
their works have found ready sale.
A large number of paintings held by
the rich in this country, with French
and Italian signatures, are the works
of resident American artists. IL their
owners knew that tho artist was a
plain George Smith OF John Thomas
they would not consider thcm worth
the canvas they arc painted on.
Why have not Americans more ma
tlonal pridep Why do lot the rich
spend more of their money at home?
Money paid out here for luxuries hene-
fits the masses. The artist and musi-
clan pay it to the merchants, who in
turn pay it to their employees.
Foreigners who excel should be well
paid for their works, which should be
brought to this country; they help to
educate us, to elevate and refine, but
they must not be patronized to the ex-
clusion of our own. We have the
same elevating, refining influence with
us, in men and women of talent and
genius, but who languish in obscurity
for want of patronage. because our
great weakness is for show, and that
Is made better by buying in Paris,
Florence or Rome. In order to avoid
the loss of millions we must learn to
appreciate, to encourage and support
our own.
Another evil consequent upon the
first is, that, seeing Americans rushing
abroad to spend their money, foreign
ers have naturally come to the conclu-
sion that our art productions must be
of very inferior order when we will
not buy them ourselves. This impress
sion is created by Americans wherever
they go; consequently they not only
send their own money abroad, but
prejudice foreigners, so that they will
not send their money here for anything
that can be had elsewhere. If Ameri-
cans had that true-born pride and love
of country which should animate
every heart, there would be no bowling
at the feet of strange talent to neglect
our own; but with helping hand
American genius liberated would
mount and hold place with the highest
talent of the world.-Philadetphia

Queer Indian Names.

Many of the Indian names, writes a
correspondent TO The HdrtiOeH (Ga.)

chief of Cherokee nation. Capt. Six
Killer is United States police officer.
The widow of Five Killer is "charm-
ing belle" in the Enfaula neighbor-
hood. Rev. Mr.. Two Dogs is cler-
gyman living near the town of Blue
Jacket. Sleeping Rabbit was killed

Brother Rabbit is leading Baptist

conjecture what the little Foxes will
be called. Cindy Red Fruit is the be-
trothed of Eufaula blood. Dancing

of remarkable beauty. Every white
person is given an Indian name as

great many of the Creek names are

dams in their rythmical way. The
gushing writer's of poetry have eulo-
gized the beauty of the Indian maiden,
and quite number of prose. writers
have been guilty of the same extrava-
gance, but must confess that Indian
women are, as rule, ugly and repul-
sive, the only redeeming feature being
their jet-black, sparkling eyes. The
copper-colored skin, long snaky hair,
and cheek-bones jutting out like two
high promontories, destroy all beauty
and attractiveness. There may be a

DISEASES OF TIE EYE.
The Effect Of Modern Civilization Upon t1e
Visual Organs


Visual Organs.
Not only has the acuteness of vision
of civilized man fallen below the
standard common among savage ma
tions, but, at the same time, the eyes
of civilized man often depart from the
normal or approximately spherical
formation. They depart from it in
two opposite directions; either becom-
ing flattened from front to back, so as
to bring the retina too near the sur
face. or elongated from front to back,
so as to remove the retina too far from
tho surface The former condition,
technically called "hypermetropia,"
demands tho exercise of accommoda-
ton even for distant objects, thus be.
coming a source of fatigue to the eyes,
and IL is also the common cause of
squint. The latter, technically called
'myopia, is the cause of short sight.
These two malformations may be said
to have come into existence within his
toric time, aud into prevalence almost
within living memory.
Hypermetropia, or ''hat-cye," may
be regarded as matter of arrested
development. The eve is fat because
it has not attained its full proper
tons. 1t is stunted, and the imper-
lection is seldom limited to the shape
of the organ Us whole, but usually
extends also 70 its component parts.
The retina of fiat eye is commonly
defective, so that vision, even when as
sisted by glasses which correct the
fault of the shape, falls short of the
normal standard. 1t goes without
saying that hypermctropia is favored
by all circumstances which interfere
with complete bodily development,
and that it is almost common among "a
population living in unwholesome con-
ditions.
The original cause of myopia, on the
other hand, seems to be the applca-
ton of the ewes to near Objects; in
other words, the pouring over books
and handicrafts. When the eyes are
directed to near object they are
turned in, or rendered convergent, so
that the axes of vision meet upon it,
and this position is maintained by a
muscular effort which, if continued,
alters the shape of the eye in the direc-
tion of elongation. Manifestly the
alteration will be most easily effected
during youth, when the tissues OF the
body, including those of the eye, are
comparatively lax and distensble, and
IL will also be most easily effected
among those young people whose it's
sues are exceptionally weak by reason
of inadequate food or of unhealthy
descent or surroundings. Badly
lighted schools are the great manu-
factories of myopia, the bad light COM
polling approximation of the books or
other materials of study.
There is yet another defect of shape,
called astigmatism, which merely
means that the surface of the eye is
differently curved in different direc-
tons. All three, nat.eye, myopia and
astigmatism, however produced origin
ally, are peculiaritles of shape which
are constantly handed down by par
ents to their offspring. Philadelphia

ing the most convincing demonstra-
ton was to win the wager. The little
man was much better controversial
list than the big man, and, having the

he concluded the big man knocked
him down and punched his head, ex-
claiming: "Do you give upp Do you

When he arose to his feet he indig-
