AT the recent meeting of the British
Medical Association some of the most
distinguished eye specialists in Great
Britain discussed the subject of myopia
-short-sightedness. About thirty
years ago Donders, great ophthal-
mologist and scientist, declared that a
near-sighted eye is not sound eye, that
progressive myopia is true disease
and that in youth almost every myopia
is progressive. For men engaged in
study or in minute work there is some
advantage in slight degree of myopia,
which in old age confers the privilege
of reading without glasses. 1t has been
said that myopia is the companion OF
intellectual progress, but it is an un-
pleasant companion, not friend. Even
excessive intellectually, when accom-
panied by myopia, does not compensate
for the inability to see the details Of
landscape, the shapes and movements
of living creatures, architectural
beauties, and the facial expressions OF
our friends. Professor Landolt regards
myopia as an adaptation of the organ to
the functions of superior race, as a
something instituted at the interest Of
intellectual progress. But, we may
we'll ask, if nature really wishes to ease
the labor of the student by shortening
the focus of his eyes, why does she not
reverse the action of his accommodate
ing muscles and give him an active &C.
commodation for distance, so that he
may see beyond his book without
glasses?

AN express company refers to its en-

THE Turkish government has just ex-
pressed its regrets for the false arrest of
an American charged with completely
in the Armenian troubles. He was
seized at night and thrown into prison,
but he was released on condition that he
would appear for trial. Mr.. Hirsch, the
American Minister, made an energetic
protest against the violation of the right
of domicile Of an American citizen, and
demanded satisfaction and the punish
ment of the official ordering the arrest.
1t was charged that the accused had en-
graved seal for secret Armenian
committee, but proof was produced that
the man had no knowledge of the art OF
engraving and he had recently been
acting as agent for an American firm

A COMPARATIVELY new thing is the
Mutual Beneficial Association of the
italian fruit vendors. Each member
pays q small monthly sum into the as
sociation, and in return receives 81 a
week when he is too ill to turn the
crank of a peanut roaster. The Asso-
citation also undertakes to further the
common interests of its members in
various ways. The general public
knows little of the street fruit vender,
and probably thinks him penniless
wretch, whose days and nights are
given up to tedious and Improbable
toll. As matter of fact, the business,
though trying by reason of long hours
and exposure to weather, is more profit
able than many trades requiring greater
skill. The Italian newspapers TEEN
with advertisements of corner fruit
stands for sale, and the goodwill of a
well-established fruit business fetches a
considerable sum. The outdoor life
necessitated by the business is much
less trying to the Italians than to peo-
pie of most other nationalities, because
the Italians come to the United States
with the open-air habit fully formed ;
and even when their business does not
necessitate it, they do their best to imi-
tate here this feature of italian life.
Only the coldest and wettest weather
keeps the inhabitants of Little Italy
indoors, and ordinarily the sidewalks
in that region swarm with people
busted in their daily yocations.
