DODGiN0 MILITARY DUTY.

Ho0 Unfortunate Europeans Who Wish
to Escape Are Trapped
In the countries Of Europe IN which
the military conscription exists many
tricks are resorted to by the conscripts
in The effort to escape service, says Lon
don Tid-Bits- Often men have been
known to mutilate themselves, as by
cutting off forefnger, In order to rem
der themselves unfit for the service
Pretended inability to see is exposed by
the surgeons without great difficulty,
but pretended deafness sometimes
haffles the examiners
A oounter-trick ON the part OF the
0d1cera was for some time effective
against this fraud The recruiting aH-
cr, after q conscript had pretended to
6e 6eaf, remarked In IN ordinary tone
o3 vodce: ''You are unfit for the service;
you are free" In many cases the re-
CzMt showed by evident signs OF salts
faction that he had heard the remark
He was then recalled, told that he had
been detected In his fraud and sent to
the barracks After time, however,
the conscripts became too wary TO be
caught in this trap. They had beard Of
the trick and were on the lookout for
this remark, and when It was uttered
they made no sign of intelligence.
: Lately the French officers have In
vented q new trap" the success Of
which h q curious illustration Of the In
grained courtesy, or at least the o.
sumption Of courtesy, on the part of tho
frenchmen of all classes After tie
You go free" has failed to eNctte any
sign Of understanding In the recruits
face the command to 60 Is shouted to
him He starts out of the room, the
door Of which is held open by mechanical
means AS he passes through 1t the
officer says: "You might at least shut
the door" This little unjust impeach-
ment OF the mans politeness Is said in
nine cases out of ten of pretended deaf
ne6 to result In quick turn OF the
mans head. He Is then called back
and told that he has been found At fp

a person may see as far with one per

= clearly; for the advantage that
binocular, or double vision, possesses
over monocular, on one-eyed vision, Is
that the former, by allowing the OBJ
server to catch sight Of the object from
two different points Of view, gives him
at once some idea Of the proportions Of
OF its different parts
But though this II true tn theory, In
practice the Judgment interferes, and
the Judgment has been educated and in
measure rendered Independent Of the
services Of binocular vision by expo
Renee and the use Of other senses, such

Thus man with only one eye is
never deceived as to the nature Of an
object with which he Is well ac-
-quafnted, for the report Of It that he

supplemented by his experienced juda-
ment and transmitted to his centers OF
consciousness In as perfect form as
that which reaches those OF q man with

Notice to Teachers.

The Committee on Course of Study for
the common schools Of the county have
had the course printed and distributed
this week SO that each member of the
sub committees may get sufficient
number to supply all the teachers en-
gagged in their respective townships. To
save postage and because OF the uncer-
tainty in the addresses of many teachers,
the committee thought it best to mail to
the subcommittee of each township a
number sufficient for distribution in
that township. Each teacher engaged
to teach in this county the coming year
should see that he gets copy of the
course. The following are the sub-com-
mitteemen to whom to apply in the sew
eral townships. Their addresses as
given below are the addresses used by
this committee in sending out the sup.
