pecuiiarities OF American Eyes,

The efforts of the war department to
secure a field glass for tho service of
greater power than the one they now use
has discovered tho fact that the eyes OF
the average American are closer together
than those Of men In foreign countries.
The double glass, known as the field
glass, now used Is weaker than that used
In the armies Of Europe. II Is Of only
from five to six powers--entirely too weak
for the purpose. The only glass they can
get Of sufficient power Is q single spy
glass, which Is defective In that 1t does
not take In a broad enough field This is
very serious defect In the equipment of
the American army, but there seems to be
no Immediate prospect Of It's correction,
because our eyes are too close together.
Some Of the colored troops may be able 10
use different glass, but the white Yankee
soldier cannot overcome the national pecu-
liarity. The best military field glass in
use Is that with which the German army
is supplied. An attempt was made TO
adopt them by tho war department, but
1t was found that the eyes OF the glasses
were 80 far apart that they could not be
used by Americans. Tho department is
studying how to overcome this difficulty.

High Art in Advertisements.

The very high class Of art work notice
able In advertising matter calls attention
to the fact that almost the very best
artists are now employed by advertisers
(at the highest prices they command for
any work. to draw pictures for circulars,
pamphlets, guide books, the advertising
pages Of the magazines, and for the public
columns Of the newspapers. The artists
have taken warning from the fate of
bright young fellow who allowed his sig
nature to appear too often in pictures in
railway advertising books, and all these
fine pieces Of work they now turn out are
copied without their signatures; indeed,
they contract that their names shall
neither appear nor be mentioned in CON
nection with their work. Not long ago
a large firm of manufacturers was so
pleased with the pictures very famous
artist drew for one Of the pamphlets that
they scattered broadcast the statement
that the head Of the house offered to pay
the artist his original price over again II
he would sign the picture he had made, In
ssasr ssc.~r.r ssat they may hang in .5 the manu-
not DO SO for any price within the means
OF the rich man.
The same companies that make use Of
these high grade pictures also employ ex.
cellent talent for the writing OF the read
ing matter that accompanies the pictures,
and great advertisers now have private
arrangements with literary or al least
semi literary men, whose work in the
back columns of the papers attracts al,
most as much attention as the news IL.
