Some Variety of Eyes.

Birds of lofty flight, as the condors,
eagles, vultures, and carrion- seek ing
PRIV ers of the feathery race, have tele-
scopic vision; and thus they are enabled
to look down aud discover their unsus-
pecting victims, As they approach noise
es,ly from above the axis or vision
changes, shoI oItening, so that they see lust
as djstin tly within one foot of the ground
as when at an elevation of one mile in
the air. This fact explains the balanc-
ing of fish hawk on its pinions half a
mile above a still pond, watching for fish
When one is selected, down the savage
hunter plunges, the focal axis varying as
the square of the distances, giving the
hawk di tinct view of its intended
prey always. As they ascend, then the
axis is elongated by a curious muscular
arrangement so as to see far again. Snails
have their keen eyes at the extremity of
flexible horns, which they can protrude
or draw in at pleasure. BY winding the
instrument round the edge of leaf or
small >tock, they can see how matters
stand on the opposite side. The hammer
h AIDED shark has its wicked looking eyes
nearly two feet apart. 1t can bend the
thin edgings of the head on which the
organs are located, so as to examine the
two sides of an object the size of fully
grown Goldfish. Flies have immovable
ewes. They stand out from the head
like half an apple, exceedingly promi-
nent. Instead of being smooth hemis-
pheres, they have an immense number of
facets, resembling old-fashioned watch
glass seals, each one directing the light
li cctly 10 the Optic retina That eX-
plains why they cannot be approached in
any direction without seeing what is
coming Dr. j. f. y. Smith.

The Parrot and the Earihquak e.

At 10 o'clock ON the night of Aug.
81, says a newspaper correspondent, /
was seated near a famous parrot. Its
cage was covered. | was reading a
newspaper. Suddenly the bird dropped
from its perch in great excitement.
Sand and gravel flew in all directions,
and the water was sprinkled against the
wall. 1 snatched the covering from the
cage. The bird hung by its feet from
the top bars. Its eyes were wild and 1t
seemed dazed. Under the supposition
that an ant had bitten it l tried to
soothe it, and searched the cage without
result. The parrot answered no ques-
tions, and beyond contraction of the
pupils OF its eyes made no motion. At
last, after ten minutes had passed, in
clear and startling accent: ''Wbat is
it 2" From that on it was dumb until
daylight. The cause of its terror was
learned the next morning when the
newspapers were filed with accounts of
the great earthquake. The parrot had
felt the shock which had been unnoticed
by those near It,

men being destroyed by city life. Every
| September and October there is large
number of them coming to the cities.
Many of them have no idea as to what
| they are coming to, and among the vast
multitude of young men in these cities
| believe New York and Brooklyn ever
year damn at least thousand. They
are shoveled off and out with no more

with the wine cup and the gamblers
dice and the scarlet enchantress, with
out the grace of God young man is not
safe ten minutes There is a great deal
of talk about which is the worst city.
Some say New York, some say Chicago,
some say st. Louis, some say New Or
leans. What l have to say is that you
cannot make much comparison between
the infinite. We have a great mill of
destruction and it is running day and
night. 1t is grinding its grist every hour.

ground around this great soul destroying
mill is saturated with the blood of vic
tins. Machinery running day and night.
Give us full chance and we could grind
out 500 day. We have enough ma
chinery and enough men to run the ma
chinery, and we say to the villages and
neighborhoods of Long Island "Send on
more lnen and women" and we say to
Westchester and Ulster counties and all
the other counties of the State of New
York, "Send on more men and women" "
Let them come down under this grind
ing wheel, put them into the hopper,
the homesteads, the family Bibles, the
wardrobes; put them in. Grind on and
grind on. Give us more material for
this great mill, wet with tears and sui
phurous with woe and trembling with
the earthquakes of an incensed God,
which, if our cities do not repent, will
cover us up as quick and as deep as in

A tumble of scattered brushes
As they lift him up to the walk,
gath'ring of curious faces,
And snatches of whispered talk;
Little Joe all trembling beside him
On the tagging, with gentle grace
Pushing the tangled, soft brown hair
Away from the still, white face
At his touch the shut lids lifted,
And swift over lip and eve
Came glow as when the morning
Flusbes the eastern sky;
And hand reached out to his brother,
As the words came low, but clear;
''Joe, reckon We mind our mother
A minute back she wor here,

Prof Max SCHUYLER of Berlin, is con-
WINGED (Deutsche Med. Wochensch., No.
24) of the superiority of massage over
other measures employed in the treat
ment of sciatica, and relates his ex-
perience of fifteen cases-all in males,
and except in one or two instances
(Which were traumatic) due to exposure
to cold. Most of the cases were dealt
with from the first by massage; but in
few instances electricity, vapor baths.
ETC.. had been fruitlessly employed prior
to coming under his care. The mOdus
operandi is as follows: The patient lies
on the unaffected side with knees and
hips slightly tlexed. The course of the
sciatic nerve is rubbed from below up
wards, partly with both thumbs, partly
with the ball of the little finger or
thumb; sometimes struck with the
closed fist, sometimes the muscular mass
over the nerve pressed and kneaded
with both hands. The pain evoked by
these manipulations soon passes away,
and after a short time becomes less and
less at each sitting. The neuralgia
pains very soon abatc. diminishing after
severe and painful massage, then re-
curing with less severity, and grad
ually disappearing entirely. The power
of walking improves after each sitting.
On an average the treatment lasts about
two weeks and half, but i'm one case
nine days and in several from ten to
fourteen days suiliced. One patient
abandoned the treatment after five
days. owing to the pain caused by it.
and tried without relief fortnight's
course of electricity and vapor baths;
he then returned to the massage treat
ment, and was cured in two weeks and
