tear seen through microscope Of

evaporation leaves behind 1t the saline
ingredients, which amalgamate and

The tears are secrctcd in what are
called the ''lachrymal glands, situated
over the eyeball and underneath the
lid. The contents of these glands are
carried along and under the inner sur
face of the eyelids by means of six or
seven very fine channels. and are dis
charged little above the cartilage sup
porting the lid.
The discharge of tears from the
lachrymal glands is not occasional and
accidental. as Is commonly supposed,
but continuous. 1t goes on both day
and night-though less abnndautly at
night : through the "conduits." and
spreads equally over the surface OF the
lids. After serving its purpose the flow
is carried away by two little drains.

Why Food Must Become Dearer.

c. Wood Davis in the November For um.
The possibilities Of agriculture are
great, and with improving means OF
transport and of distribution the
earth will provide food for her chill
dren for many years; yet it is probable
that the latter part Of the nineteenth
century will be known in future days
as tho era Of plenty, when the masses
were enabled, by minimum expendi-
ture of labor, to secure more food
than at any prior or subsequent time.
European peoples may become more
free, their hours Of labor may be less
ened, the masses may enjoy a greater
share of the products OF their toll, the
tenure Of land may be radically
changed, and taxation and the money
lenders charge may be abated; but
food can never again be SO abundant
or SO cheap, measured by labor rs it
is now, for the sufficient reason that
all the best lands OF the north temper.
ate zone are already occupied. The
unexampled rapidity with which the
agricultural resources Of America
have been developed has created an

meat, with resulting low prices, and
has thus impoverished the cultivators
OF Europe and America. Were the
other continents as fully occupied as
Europe, how could the present popu.
lation OF that continent be fed and
clothedp Even after banishing one
third OF her children, Europe now
finds it necessary, in order to feed
and clothe her $50, 900 people, to
call upon Asia, Africa, America, Aus
tralia, and the islands Of the ocean
for enormous contributions OF grain,
meat. fish, oil, cotton and wool.
Imagine what would be the condition
Of Europe and its people with popu-
lation Of $500, 900, 900! In Europe food
has certainly ceased TO increase, even
in an arithmetical ratio, and al
though population has failed to aug
ment as rapidly MS many have feared,
yet the gap in the proportions widens
in an alarming manner.

SHE WASHED THE STEPS.
The Heiress OF Millions Is Not Afraid Of
Labor.

Florence Blythe. besides being q
damsel Of exceedingly novel ideas, bids
fair to become, like Beautiful Bertha,
"a model for housewives"
Saturday afternoon she paid visit
to her mother. Mrs. Julia Ashcroft. who
resides in very modest fiat at No.

not of the opinion that it was incum-

sit idle while her mother was busy. SO

rather strange that '.maid so rich"

her.

$4,000. ought to learn and practice
all the household arts. Why, it ought
10 be one of the chief aims of an Ameri-
can girls education to make a true
housewife out Of herself; don't you
think SOP"
The reporter expressed no opinion
as to this subject. but asked in reply:
'Do you intend washing the stairs at
Miramonte, Miss Blythe?"

anything better to do at the time. This

City Justices OF the Peace have
plenty of opportunity to study human
nature. particularly colored human ma
ture.
A colored couple walked into Justice
Sheftall's Office and in one breath both
asked the Justice for divorce. They
were evidently man and wife. but were
anxious to break the tie which bound
them. The Justice let the couple tell
their story out of curiosity. 1t was
tale of conjugal infelicity and mutual
dissatisfaction.
The man got in his story first. He
said. You see, Judge. meet dis wo-
man in Beaufort and / marry her.

Justice Shcftall explained that he
was not allowed by law to divorce

agreed together that they never could

Edward Eggls..on'. Early Training.

From the Nov smber Forum.
Ii had entered college In day
when studies were not elective, l must
have wasted a great deal Of time in pur-
suits that could not be OF much &C.
count to me in any way. Out Of school
l acquired the invaluable habit Of in
dependent study. Schools and col
leges-I do not say univer sities-are
primarily for those that cannot or will
not study without them. we'll re-
member when, at twelve years OF age,
came to one OF the most important
resolutions Of my life. put away
then the juvenile and other trash that
had amused me up to that time, and
settled myself in fixed plan OF read
ing nothing that did not in some way
advance my education. 1t must have
been by n sort OF inclined plane that
went into solid reading, for l remem-
ber that the Iirst attempt at self-im-
provement was the reading Of John L.
Stephens Travels in Central Amer
lea and elsewhere. But as l grew
older and 1t became evident that was
to miss all regular college training, l
took much more heroic doses OF self
culture; and since / was debarred
from committing suicide in college
did my best toward that end by over
study at home, rising at O'Clock,
sometimes, to read Virgil or Xeno-
phon. In all this was the victim OF
the ideas Of my time; it was believed
to me promotive OF health to break
ones natural rest before daylight, to
move about in the malarial morning
hours, to tax the system by mental
exertion while it was enfeeble by fast
demanded, on the theory that the
brain was clearer when the system
was anamic. But in this irregular
study, broken by recurring fits Of ILL
ness, and diversified by other pur-
suits, managed to dabble in six or
seven languages before was twenty
five, though the only literatures from
which l really got any culture were
the English and French, and in less
degree the Latin. My earlier reading
was chiefly in classical English and
French poetry. l read few Gcvels,
for.I was bred latter the straitcst sect
OF our religion" Methodist. But
though religious prejudices made me
shrink from novels, SO that l can
hardly call myself we'll versed in
standard fiction even to-day. 1 was
greatly given to reading dramatic
works both in French and English.
What delight got from the two stout
volumes of 1.-The British Drama" in
my fathers library! 1t is unaccount-
able that brought away in my men,
ory Of these plays no trace Of that
pruriency which I know now to
abound in plays of the eighteenth GEN.
tury. In French read much, in that
early day, of Racine, Moliere and
Corneille, and even good deal OF
Scribe and some other moderns; but I
should have esteemed it damnable
sin to see play on the stage. My
literary lie presents this anomaly:
when my first novel was written /
knew much less than most well-in-
formed men of the construction Of
