"A man, who had under his control fif-

cultivated a farm Of about ten acres.
In the year, he was so busy with the
whitlows( (bone-felons) he had planted it
all in cotton, and on account of the wet
weather the grass completely took his
crop. His fields looked like one contin-
uous green lawn. AS the rich farmer
left the Doctors gate, entirely relieved
of his suffering, he saw the condition Of
his benefactor's crop, and resolved to
send him some help the next day.
Calculating that the farm contained at
least fifty acres, he sent bis fifteen
ploughs and his thirty hoes, the next
day soon after breakfast, up to DIR.

grunt, peculiar to him, and was never

cause of the extraordinary changes that
had taken place in his two cotton

Easier 10 Save siaht than Any Sense.

There is nothing so pitiful as a aschool-
room of children not one OF whom has
seen the light OF the sun. There is no
substitute for the loss of eyesight. And
so when excessive work, long hours of
toll under the Pickering lights that man
has made in the futile attempts to turn
night into day, or when approaching age
bas made inroads on the sight, there Is
nothing so necessary as the effort to re-
enforce the wanting strength in all posi-
BILE ways. Science has made this easier
in the case of failing sight than in that OF
any other organ. As time chills the
marrow in old bones, as time takes from
the nerves and muscles of the arm, and
as time saps somewhat from the pigments
of color and turns our hair a plaintive
gray, so time fattens the lens of the ma
tural eye, draws its curves into more rigid
and straighter lines, and refuses the Vi
tality that could once have repaired any
waste. The eye has grown weaker, just
as all other members Of the body do when
they have seen the zenith Of power come
and go.
All that is needed is that another lens
be placed before that older and more
priceless one, aud that all lines of light
be sent to the retina at just the proper
angle. Opticians can tell after the brief
est Of tests just what is needed, and they
arc provided with glasses to meet all
needs. Men who deal in those instru-
ments say that nine out of ten Of their
customers are those who find some diff
Guilty with their eyes, but dislike to be-
lievc it is advancing age. They think
oil they need is something to tide them
over some present difficulty that has
made reading or sewing painful at night.
As a matter of fact, however, they will
probably never be able to do without
glasses again. And they never should
want to. 1t is but natural that the body
should feel somewhat of the ravages Of
time when one has seen forty years come
and go, for few Of us conserve as we
should the forces that have been given

Through Government officials an in

The request was granted. The artisans
spent year Or two in Germany, and to-
day Japan is selling the very same ar
ticle to the Germans at much less cost
than they can produce it. Those oblig-
ing Germans have had their business
ruined, and their factories have long
since stopped running. "-&. Louis Star
