White Cats are Generally Deaf.

Harrison Weir, President of the Ma
tional Cat Club, England, says in his
book, "Our Cats" that white cat of
the long or the short haired breed is like
ly to be deaf Should it have blue ewes.
the fancy color, it is almost certain to be
deaf.
Mr.. Weir, at cat show, purchased a
white cat, a beauty, loving and gentle,
for the low price of two guineas. When
he got it home the cat proved to be
'stone deaf"
Then the trouble began. If shut out
of the dining room, its cry for admission
could be heard all over the house, for,
being deaf, it did not know the noise it
made, though its owner often wished
that it could hear its own cry. When it
called out as 1t sat on his lap, it called
out with ten-cat power, and its COM
handing voice caused it to be named the
"Colonel"
One day friend saw the ssbeauty, y
and admired it so much as to accept it as
gift, even after being told that it was
s'stone deaf" A few days after Mr..
Weir received letter from the friend,
offering to retMn the loud-voiced cat.
''Give it to any one you please, but
don't return it to us, !" was the reply.
The Colonel was given to deaf old
lady, and both were happy.

Eye-stones.

Eye-stones are really portions of the
covering of certain shell fish. They are
found at the opening of the shell, and
serve to close the entrance when the ami
NAL draws itself within. They are of
various kinds, but those used as eye
stones are hard, stony bodies, about the
size of split peas, one-third to one-sixth
of an inch in diameter, little longer
than broad, having one surface plane and
the other convex.
When they have been worn by the ac-
ton of the sea, they are very smooth and
shining. Like other shells, they are
composed of carbonate of lime. When
placed in weak acid, such as vinegar, a
chemical change takes place, carbonate
acid gas is given off, and in its escape
produces the movements which are popu-
larly supposed to show that the stone is
"alive."
When one of these stones is placed
under the eyelid, at the outer corner, the
natural movements of the lid in winking
push it gradually toward the inner side,
and when it comes in contact with the
mote which is causing the irritation, this
is carried along and finally expelled with
it. The belief that such stones have a
peculiar detective power, and move about
in the eye until they find and remove the
irritating substance for which they have
been 'sent," has no foundation in fact.
1t is interesting to know that in the
lining membrane of the stomach of the
crawfish there are found small bodies
which go under the name of "crab's eyes,, +"
and look not unlike the true eye-stones.
They have sometimes been mistaken for
them, and presumably would serve
similar purpose. Scientific American.

when l left his Office l had two of the

called the eye artist had six patients
ahead of me, all waiting their turns to be
treated. One man had both eyes black

"Can you wash your face when you
have painted-out black eyer"
"Oh, yes, only you have to do it care

The Royal Palace at Toffa.


The kingdom of Porto Novo on the
West African coast, which has lately been
placed under French protection, will in
time prove to be an important Colonial
possession for tho French people. Toffa,
the capital Of the kingdom, a city Of
about 10000 inhabitants, is the COM
mercial centre Of the surrounding coun-
try, and already there are established a
number of French commission houses.
The royal palace is one of the note
worthy buildings, stone structure, pro-
yided with glass windows, which are
considered great luxury in these parts.
The inner courtyard is triangular II
