In a recent address before one of the
largest medical associations in the
United States, the speaker argued that
the medical students work should begin
with his academic life; that tile selec-
ton OF career in medicine being de-
termined upon, attention should b.
given to the cultivation of the mind in
the study of Latin, Greek, German.
French, physics, etc, TO the exclusion
Of the higher mathematics. Every one
admits that a knowledge of Latin is es-
sential to intelligent medical training,
and when one is reminded that practi.
caliy one half of the words in DungIi.
sons Medical Dictionary are of Greek
origin, it is not difficult to become con-
WINGED that this dead language is equally
essential. As far as medicine Is con-
cerned, nothing can be more deplorable
than the decline of Greek in the classi-
cal curriculum. In Hungary according
TO a recent letter in the New York
Times, it has been abolished, while in
Italy it is treated as an optional aid to
philology. The importance of German
and French may be appreciated when 1t
Is estimated that about one-half Of cur
rent medical literature appears In these
languages. II Harper's Weekly.

The use Of Tears b not generally ap
preciated. even By those who shed them
most freely. says tile Newcastle Chron
icIe IL il assumed that tears are shed
occasionally as an expression Of grief.
though tears OF joy are not wholly un
known. This. however. is a mistake, for
the discharge Of tears is continuous and
the flow Of moisture from the lacIlry-
NAL glands serves a very beautiful pro-
vision Of nature An immense quantity
Of fne dust is always floating in the
air. and though this Is impalpable to the
vision. it would soon obscure the sight
il allowed 10 remain in tile eyes The
continuous flow of moisture from the
IachEymal glands is sufficient to keep the
eyeballs clear from this accumulation
OF dust, but when any grit, insect, or
smoke gets into the eyes it so affects the
nerves as to cause an extra flow Of tears
to clear it away. Tears are thus invol
untary, and may be caused By any pun
gent yapor, such as arise from acids
the odor Of onions The chief element
in the composition of a tear is water.
but with water is associated minute pro-
portions of salt, soda. phosphate of lime.
phosphate of soda, and mucous; and
when seen under the microscope tear
after evaporation looks like very small
fish bone. owing to the salines forming
themselves into heightened CROSSINGS

FLYING spEcks BEFORE THE EYES.


Their Sudden Appearance-A Startling
but Not Serious Affection.
People are often frightened almost out
of their wits by the sudden appearance OF
flying specks before their eyes; sometimes
they are only one or two, but often thou
sands of them can be seen, particularly
when person looks toward 4 white sur
face, as white clouds, white houses, white
pavements or toward water surface. These
flying specks are mostly small points, con-
nected one with another by fine lines, and
the points often presented beaded appear
ance, At first persons are likely to try to
knock them away, thinking it is something
before their eyes. They come usually in
both eyes at the same time. They may di-
minish or increase in numbers at times,
but rarely ever disappear entirely. They
never interfere with vision by settling over
objects looked at
DIR. A. d. Williams explains in the st.
Louis Medical Journal that the nature of
the flying specks here described is not well
understood, but badly focused eyes are
most likely to be troubled with them. He
says that they signify nothing serious so
long as they are mere points connected
with fine lines, and do not interfere with
the acuteness of vision. Treatment is more
than useless. If the eyes are out of focus
proper glasses should be selected. 1t is i'm
portant that the patient should ignore
their presence entirely; should avoid see
ing them as much as possible and let them
alone. Large floating masses before the
eyes, which swim around and often OBJ
scure vision, are the result of serious dis
ease and should be promptly looked after.

A Bit of Sarcasm.

A bright but rather strongminded
woman on one Of the New York papers
was so persistently importuned to write
fashion articles for the Sunday edition
that she at last protested. why don't
you ask me to discuss the origin of spe
cies or bimetalism rather than clothes
l could deal with either subject more
intelligently."
"Thats just the idea" said the editor
"You don't know an earthly thing about
the fashions, and you do say such origi-
nal things"
Many of the hints ON domestic econ
omy one meets with in the papers must
have emanated from some such cause,
One item recently suggested Il resource
to the housewife, with an etching or en-
craving for which she could not afford
to buy a frame. She had only to place
it on an easel and drape u handsome
silk scarf over it. AS though the price
of the easel alone would not buy pic
ture frame.

1t is sometimes said that the left ear is
more liable to be attacked by disease, or to
be attacked first and suffer more severely
than the right. In regard to what he calls
the GENERALIZATION of ear disease" Dr. Low
enberg, of Paris, says that he has for along
time past been struck with the fact that
while deafness is more common on the left
side in men, the same does not hold good in
the case OF women. From statistics of 5000
cases which have come under his notice he
shows. in the first place, that the male sex
is more subject to ear disease than the fe
male, there having been l 100 of the former
to 1 ,2i0 of the latter. Among those in whom
only one ear was affected there were AS
men and 81 women. The right ear alone
was affected in BIZ men and 1877 women; the
left alone in PCS men and IA women. Deaf
ness existed in both ears in 1914 men and
ISL women. Among this number the right
ear was the more deaf of the two in 427meu
and $40 women, the left in G41 men and 397
women. Deafness was equal on both sides
in 22S men and 1G3 women.
