tions OF the Draper memorial,
The instrument employed is a
Photographic elescope with Il prism or
a series Of pTismS in front of the object
glass, the whole mounted like any large
telescope, and provided with an accurate
dri wing clock. With an instrument Of
this kind we obtain upon the sensitive
plate the spectra of all the stars whic
happen to be in the field OF view-some-
times IA hundred at a time, as when a
cluster like the Pleiades is in question,
This method has made it possible TO
complete, in compaativ vely short time
a general survey of the spectra of all the
bri ghter stars of the northern hemis-
phere, and the survey is now
being extended to the southern hemis-
phere, whereit isalready well advanced

Dance ON His StOm aCh.

Tn referring 10 thedead the Apache
always points upward, say the Illus
trated American. The medicine man,
too, before beg inning his song to the
Great Spirit rinSes his mouth with pure
water, thus indicating the belief hat
"what comcth from within detilcth the
man." In the absence ot remedies
the medicine men and women
are agreed that nothing is
SO conducive to the recOv-
cry of the patient asa good kne aiding of
the abdomen. So that one OF the every
day sights of the camp is II haltgrown
daughter or son dancing, not TOO ten
dcrly, on the stomach ofhis parental an
cestor. 1t is hardly necessary TO ado
that the Apache, like hisignoran W white
brother, violatcSevery rule ofhygicne and
hence is subject to many ailments. The
sick are always carefully, if not gently,
attended by relatives, and when death
comes, us comeit does very often, they
consider ita duty TO contribute Of their
house hold goods and wearing apparel
valuable artic les, TO enable the dead one
tomake Il good appearance in the next
world.

CONCERNING CATARACT.

A Disease Of the Eye Which Usually A.
tacks Elderly Person. Only.
The crystalline lens of the eye Is sit
uated just behind the pupil, and lies be-
tween two fluids, the aqueous in front
and the vitreous behind. It's object is
to focus the rays of light which pass
through the pupil upon the retina be-
hind, where they act upon the terminal
ends OF the optic nerve, and thus give
vision. This lens seems to get its sus-
tenance from the fluids In which it is
immersed, and when disease of its
structure occurs 1t probably arises from
some lack OF proper nutrition from those
sources
Perfect Transparency Of the lens is e.
sential to good vision. When any por-
ton Of it becomes opaque the entrance
Of light is obstructed, or it passes
through in an irregular manner, and
loss OF vision, more or less complete, re-
suits The condition Of opaqueness con-
stitutes what is known as a cataract
1t may affect only portion of the lens,
or the whole may be so dense as to pre-
vent the perception of any object,
though it can never of itself be SO COM
plete as to shut of entirely the sensa-
ton of light
Cataract may be congenital, or 1t may
come On in youth or in adult life, but
by far the majority Of cases occur in
persons over fifty years of age, in whom
1t takes the name OF senile cataract.
Generally there is found some embar-
rassment IN the use OF the eyes for .
longer or shorter period before tho
opacity is visible to the eye.
The cloudiness usually has q definite
starting point. and from that place it
may progress until the whole lens is in
volved, or 1t may be arrested spontane-
ously in any part OF its course. Such
cases of arrest have given rise to the be-
liof that certain nostrums will prevent
the formation OF cataract, or will re-
move it.
In reality no means Is known of STAY
Ing or preventing it, The only hope
lies in removing the mechanical OBJ
stsuc ton by surgical methods.
The form Of cataract which follows an
injury is explained by the fact that the
capsule which surrounds the lens is
ruptured. and portion of the fluid on
ters the lens and PRODUCES sodden con.
dition at one point, from which the dis
tntegration may continue.
There seems to be predisposition to
the formation of cataract in some people,
for in elderly persons, when one eye has
become affected. the other is very likely
TO pass through the same experience.
While 1t is best, In order to get the
most satisfactory result to delay the
operation until the cataract is ..ripe,r
