Care of the Eyes.

The Turks regularly cut open the outer
corner of the eyelids, if the eyes of girl are
not large enough for their ideas of beauty,
and inferior eyes can be gradually enlarged
by gently drawing the lids apart, day after
day, and bathing them in cool soft water.
The stronger the eye the larger it will seem,
for the first instinct of weak eyes is to con-
tract and span themselves from light. Amer
leans ruin their eyes with too much news
paper reading. The enormous tax of going
over twenty columns of close print daily
besides office work, is more than human CT
gans can bear. One uses his eyes more in
this way in month than cur forefathers did
in years study over black letter folios
Indeed the relief of reading such huge vol
umes in block print as ''Miller's Dictionary
of Plants" for instance, is SO apparent to
overworked modern eyes that one wishes
only one book in twenty were printed. and
that in large plea.
Worn type, poor impressions and crowded
pages with fine type exhaust our cyesight
from the school book to the cheap novel and
cheaper newspaper. Reading long lines on
wide page is trying to the sight, as there is
a change Of focus necessary in following tho
lines which is positively hurtful. So says B.
Joy Jeffries, of the Massachusetts, Eye and
Ear infirmary, who first gave the warning
that the eyes of school children were steadily
injured by defective books, desks and lights

The Plague in ENGLAND.

The plague in England, described by Defoe
as an eye witness, though he was not an in
FAINT in 1865 and 1866 when it ragged, though
terrible, was not to be compared for severity
with the plague of 1916; as many died, in
deed perhaps more, but in a much larger
population 1t began in the autumn of 1865,
but the cold winter of 1565-16G6 greatly
checked its ravages, and many hoped that it
would altogether disappear. But with the
early spring of 1866 deaths from the pesti-
1ence began to be announced, until presently
it began to be recognized that the real attack
had commenced. The symptoms were akin
to those observed during the plague of Flor
ence but sometimes death came even more
rapidly. In July 1000 died weekly, but by
September the weekly number of deaths
from the plague had risen to 5000.
The dead were buried together in certain
fields, then suburban, now within London
proper. There is one triangular space mot
built ON between Brompton and Kensington
where large numbers were buried. Many of
the dead were buried in the fields at present
occupied by the houses on Golden square,
and it was noticed that during the visitation
of cholera in 1916 the disease seemed more
malignant in that region, but whether this
was due, as some surmised, to the opening of
drains communicating with the trenches in
which the plague stricken were buried In
1865 and 1905 seems open to considerable
ouestion.-RicharJ A. Proctor
Writing in Railway Train.
Some authors appear to be able to write at
any time and in any place Anthony Trollope
did much writing in a railway train. stIt
was" he says, 'while l was engaged on Bar
chester Towers that l adopted a system of
writing which for some years afterwards /
found to be very serviceable to me. NV time
was greatly occupied in travelling, and the
nature of my travelling was now changed. I
could not any longer do it on horseback.
Railroads afforded me my means of con-
veyance, and l found that | passed in
railway carriages very many hours of
my existence. If / intended to make
profitable business of writing. and
at the same time do my lest for the post-
office, must turn my hours to more account
than could by reading. made for myself
therefore, little tablet, and found after
few days exercise that l could write as
quickly in railway carriage as could at
my own desk. l wrote with a penctl. and
what wrote my wife copied afterwards
My only objection to the practice came from
the appearance of literary ostentation to
which felt myself to be subject when going
to work before four or five fellow passengers
But I get used to it. "-Saturday Evening

Eha1l tic Newspaper Article Be Signed?
Effects of the Space System.
Space writing makes newspaper work O
vast gamble; there is always the allurin3
vision of Fbig story" tomorrow, which
iustifies the extravagant expenditure OF
TODAY, Theirs is nothing more calculated to
demoralize man than constantly varying
income. 1t is all very well for morallsts to
claim that the worker should calculate upon
the minimum, it is not in human nature to
do So The cases where a space worker man.
ages to save any money are very rare, whlle
the salaried man, whose weekly pay may not
be so large as the average of the space worker,
in nine cases out of ten has snug bank &C
count. Besides demoralizing the men, the
space system directly INJURIES the papers them
selves. A salaried man has very little tempta-
ton to enlarge upon the facts, his effort is not
to make long story in order to lengthen his
string, but only to make good one, that he
may strengthen his hold upon the paper The
salaried man is rarely a ''fahir," the space
worker has every temptation to be. or the
padded stories and sloppy writing which the
space system encourages, there is no need to
speak: we have to suffer more and more from
it every day.
The vast injustice of the space system is
that it makes no distinction as to quality,
but only regards quantity. One result is
that every live newspaper has each day pre-
pared as much again copy as can be used,
and in every office one or more men are enl-
ployed for the sole purpose OF destroying the
labor of other men. For obvious reasons it is
almost impossible for man in the office to
understand thoroughly every story which
passes under his blue pencil, and as a natural
result " copy chopping is rarely done very
judiciously. Again, there is very little in
ducement for nlanto make a story good,
unless at the same time lie can make it long.
A column is a column whether it be brilliant
or dull
If, as many editors claim, it is impractical
BILE to do away with the space system, sigma
ture could be brought in with good effect to
modify it and lessen its injustice. If the
copy reader was empowered to attach the
signature of the writer to a meritorious
article, it would furnish an inducement for
better writing and more accurate work. 1t
would enable a conscientious man to build up
a reputation for himself outside of the paper
on which he is employed. 1t would be, at
least, e. recognition of good work. There are
very few men who would be willing to see
their signatures appended to statements
which they know to be false or to writing
which they know to be sloppy. The benefit
would be mutual to the paper and the writer.

How.,rd on the Whipping Pos..

We need different grade of penalty. We
need something that shall appeal to the ma
ture of the criminal. A man beats his wife
OF his mistress, whales her until it would
seem as though life itself must leave its frail
tenement. He is arrested and given six
months ON the island. insist that not only
is the victim uncompensated. but the GRIM
inal is in no sense punished. An eye for an
eye, a lash for lash, would seem to be nearer
equity than the present incomplete sequence
The whipping post is regarded as a relic of
barbarism, and when some years ago its use
was discontinued in Delaware, l remember
all the northern journals made much of the
fact-congratulated the state upon its ap-
proach to more complete civilization.
Now, l believe that the use of the lash on
beasts of burden is at times necessary. Brute
force is often an essential There is but one
way of managing bull dog. There is but
one mode of dealing with wild beasts Ex-
perts tell me that an attempt to control
company of elephants without the prod would
be supreme folly. The elephant is cum
ming. The elephant is cruel. The elephant
is long suffering. He waits for his opportu-
nifty, and then in a twinkling of an eye
his docility disappears, and his marvellous
strength, intelligently directed by an ex-
traordinary degree of cunning, is utilized
ito uproot, to pull down, to sweep into de-
struction everything and everybody that
has ever stood in his way or afforded him the
faintest excuse for SO doing. Beast tanners
tell me that nothing under heavens keeps
the lion, the tiger, in his place, crouching
with fear, except firm faith they have in
the superior physical strength of their mas
ter. The red hot iron, the knotted lash, the
lancet shaped prod, starvation, red hot Goals
of unquestioned fire, these are the elements
with which to control four legged brutes,
and when man, made in the image of his
Creator, puts his moral nature Oil all tours,
approaching the very beasts in their BRITISH
ness, he invites, it seems to me, the lash, the
red hot iron and such physical, torment as
VIII convince him OF the physical strength of
of his master, the community
Do l advocate the lashs For men who use
the lash, do.
Do advocate physical torture? For men
who use physical torture, I do.
We hang men who kill; why not fog men
who whip?-Joe Howard in Boston Globe.
