On the authority of DIR. Fraser Halle,
it is quite possible for a mar to see his

since Purkinge observed that by pass
ing a candle TO and fro several times b:
the side of the eye the air in front was
transformed into a sort of screen, on
which was reflected rat was then sup
posed to be IA masniied image of part
of the retina." Sir c. Cthen Mr.
Wheatstone believed it to be the
shadow of the vascular network. "
Mayo thought it wa IAN image of the
blood vessels Of the retina" Sir Ben
taInin Brodie said that it vas TO him
really incoInprehensible. BY means OF
more careful drawings DR.. Fraser Halle
resumed the exploration and succeeded
in identifying the picture with the rep
resentation Of the anterior lobe of the
cerebrum."
The picture consists, he has long OBJ
served. OF red c~onvolutions with dark

ndmixture Is sometimes visible These,
he says, constitute exactly the imagV

brain with the burrows between them
The candle should be moved TO and

Action Of Hot and Cold water.

II is somewhat surprising that cold
water and hot water should differ 81
radically in effect upon corpulent PEG
pie. The former certainly favoE theiI
complaint. II Is a well known fact
that beer is fattening, but it owes such
action almost entirely, if not absolutely,
TO the water. Here it is interesting TO
note the experiment of German ply
stefan. For four years he drank two
gallons Of beer daily, and increased bis
weight seventy-eight pounds On stop
ping the beer he lost fourteen pounds
in seven days In corpulent people the
f~attening effect of cold water is always
greater if it is INDUCED in freely with
the meals OF shortly after them.
A probable explanation IS that by
distending the stomach and diluting
the digestive fluids it retards digestion,
which process, as already said, is sell
dom, If ever, as active Is it ought to be
in corpulent subjects. Hot water, on
the other hand, stimulates digestion,
and at the same time promotes a freer
action Of the liver, kidneys and bowels
Beyond this it favon the elimination Of
waste through the pores Of the skin

DInacuIties In Getting snd
Arranging the Land.

Dimeulties Encountered In Getting sud
Arranging the Land.
As most Of our readers know, there is
plenty Of land in New Hampshire that
IS lust as wild nov as it was when Hud-
son first looked on the ground where
the Statue of Liberty now stands. There
was a deal of il in Sullivan county
perhaps not the widest in the state,
but certainly a plenty of unbroken
forest that covered hills and valleys and
surrounded little lakes-forests Of birch
and beech and maple and pine and
spruce and hemlock and balsam; for
ests beautiful and fragrant enough to
give a city man the heartache when he
thinks of them. Mr.. Corbin deter
mined to buy from 10000 TO $4,000
acres of these hills and valleys and there
establish a park for his new found four
footed friends in which they would find
the conditions as near as possible to
which they were bet suited.
Everybody knows that New Hamp-
shire farms In the back country will not
bring the price of the buildings at ordi-
nary sale, but Mr.. Corbin could not
buy all that land without people learn
ing that much land was wanted.
Thereat prices ros amazingly, and soil
that wouldn't raise oats brought the
prices Of truck farms in Jersey. IL takes
a stack of money to buy a game park
where 500 different people hold the
titles 20 the tracts. Still, the location
was suitable for the purpose, and more
over, there was the old home. Mr..
/ Corbin had TO have il at any price, and
he eventually got %, 900 acres in one
tract

Men wor. More Lac. Than Women.


Ii is all Of a thousand pities that real
lace is so little in fashion. In place OF
it women buy and a hundred
gewgaws wholly lacking in beauty and
worth. The French peasant dame is
wiser far. She saves her money until
she has 100 francs, 200 francs maybe,
then buys her lace cap and is bonneted
for a lifetime. IL folk would but I'M
derstand that it is something to buy
n FOR a generation to wear, but not
wear out, to keep and hand down with
silver and jewels, it would be very well
for the lace merchant, but better for
the appearance of the feminine half Of

The sisaI Plant.

The leaves Of the sisal plant are of q
dull green color four to six feet long,
as many inches wide and terminated
by a stout dark spine. The margiU
are commonly described as smooth, a.
they are without teeth, but in all ths
plants examined by the writer tia
leaves were slightly rough on the edgS
and in many of the young plants some
Of the leaves had well developed teeth.
A full grown plant presents a rather
striking appearance, bristling all over
with the long. spiny tipped leaves
thickly radiating from the short cylin
drical trunk, which is crowned by .
sharp, slender, conelike bud. Indeed
a large plant makes think of a q.
Rantic sea urchin. The leaves as they
unfold from the bud slowly assume 9
horizontal position but remain rigid
and straight, never curving downward,
as they do in the century plant.
When the plant arrives at maturity
and has a sufficient store of nourish.
nent it sends up its flower stem,
known TO ~cultivators as the mast" on
"pole." This is from twenty TO twenty.
five feet nigh and about six inches in
diameter neal the base. On the uppe'
tvo-thirds branches are developed, con.
Verting the pole into a huge panicls

yellow flowers. joins J. Northrop b

THE FIRST PUBLIC BANK.
To Lovely Venice Must be Given the CIR ed
of Its Embellishments.

To Lovely Venice Must be Given the CIR edit
of Its Establishment.
To Venice, the "Queen of the Adri-
attic" belongs the honor of having es-
tablished the first public bank of which
any record can be found, such an insti-
tuition being unknown to the ancients.
In I'LL the republic of Venice was
very hard pressed for funds to carry on
the wars in which it was continually
engaged in order to uphold its suprema.
cy. AS consequence, tax was levied
on its moneyed men, who were prom
ised perpetual annuity of four pei
cent. on the loan t hus contributed, the
borrowers never dreaming of the posi-
bility of returning the principal.
The lenders Immediately instituted a
bureau for carrying out the proposed
plan of receiv ing and paying out the in.
terest, and, in a comparatively short
time, it was erected into the Bank OF
Venice. The exact date of its founding
is not known with any degree of GER
tainty.
Interest on the loan was promptly
paid and the creditors of the republic
were subseq uently paid in full the
sums they had advanced. Consequently
so popular did it b ecome that it was
found absolutely necessary to transform
the private bank into one of deposit
that all classes might take advantage o.
the accommodation thus afforded.
In 1928 the interest paid by the gov
ernment alone amounted to upward o
100000 year, and the shares anC
credits of the bank were so well sup
ported that at all times it's bills were
quoted and held at a premium above
the current money of the republic.
After many years of prosperity thC
bank was given it's death blow by the
French invasion of 1897. The freedom
of the city and the indie pendence of tn,
republic vanished like dream before
the invaders, and as natural conse
quence the bank, having thus lost it,
credit and support, also disappeared il
the general wreck. k.-Detroit Free Press

MENTAL WEAKNESS.
The Poisonous Effect of Overwork on tn,
Brain.


The Poisonous Effect of overworIS on the
Brain.
Brain WEAKNESS is analogous to wear
mess of the, muscles After exercise a
muscle becomes very tired, If some
other form of exercise is substituted the
tired muscle will soon be rested again.
AS to the cause of fatigue, interesting
experiments were made some years ago
by an Italian chemist by taking little
blood from some exhausted soldiers
and injecting it into the veins of dog.
1t had the immediate effect of making
the dog tired. He made further eXper-
iments by causing dogs to run and in
jecting some of their blood into the
veins of other dogs with the same re-
suit and by actual analysis it has been
demonstrated that when a muscle is
tired it is poisoned. These poisons are
the result of bodily activities, mental or
physical, and in effect they are paralyz-
ing, which gives the sense of WEAKNESS
which is experienced; so in mental
weariness the brain is poisoned by the
products of its own work 1t is like an
engine, cluked with it's own ashes and
debris. Brain weariness can often be
relieved by change of work which will
bring into activity another portion of
tho brain. This will draw the blood
away from the parts of the brain pre-
viously used and thus give it the chance
to recuperate. Some business men have
practice of solving hard problems in
mathematics as means of rest - DR..

ERyinble Independence OF the Servant Girl
In an Intelligence once.


In an Intelligence ONCE.
The owner of an employment burrau
In Sixth avenue, whose business is en-
tirely given to procuring domestic help,
said to representative of this paper to-
day:
"a good cook or other household SER,
want is the most independent person in
New York to-day. She never has to
wait for place. If she does wait it is
because she has to make u choice from
many offers She knows that she is in
the one occupation where the demand
exceeds the supply. She does one thing
almost unheard of in other occupations
she puts her prospective employer to
severe examination"
just at this point a stout, well-dressed
lady came up to the desk and inquired
II the girl she had written about was
there. The girl was called in from an
adjoining room. She was a rosy-cheeked
German of about twenty-five. She
walked in with great dignity and took
a careful survey of the lady.
Here is a synopsis of the conversation
which ensued.
Lady-You say you did the cooking in
Mr.. L. S family for three years.
Girl-Um.
Lady-And these references are, of
course, all right.
Girl-Um.
Lady-And you are not married?
Girl-Num! Mum! Mum!
Lady-Well, are you satisfied with the
household arrangements as l have eX-
planned them through Mrs. s.?
The girl was utterly apathetic during
the talk, but now she became animated,
and this was what followed:
Girl-Couldn't you change the dinner
hour?
Lady-Well, have not cousid-
Griffin. Six o'clock would be bet
ter than seven. | can't think of seven.
Where L was before, they
Lady-Well, all right; we'll arrange
that
Girl-You said you had one child.
How old is it?
Lady-Fiveyyears.
Girl--Of course that child is not to
come near the kitchen?
Lady-Not necessa--
Girl-Well, do not want any chill
dren in the kitchen, and that settles it.
May L have Tuesday and DThursday
nights off and one Sunday a month?
Lady-That can't be settled just now,
We will arrange that
Girl-No, we won't. 1 have always
had that viii you or will you not?
LADY, will.
Girl-Aud the house is just as you de-
| scribed to Mrs. S.?
Lady-Certainly.
Girl-Well, I'll think of it. I'll tell
you how | haveldecided tomorrow.
The lady retired, looking very hum
bic, and the prospective servant retired
to the next room, seeming to be very
much bored. N. Y. Commercial Advo-
