VIII, nrunkard, See IloubIe.

In answer to the question "N ny
does a drunken man stagger IN his gait
and see double2" DR.. j. W. cross
white said Yesterday double vision
is due TO want Of harmony H. the
muscles which control the movement OF
the eyeball This il owing to change
effected in the nerves or nerve centers
by the alcoholic poison.
Inflammation of the nerves and also
lot of energy in the centers of the
brain are produced by oyerdoses OF
alcohol. and TO this disturbance in the
centre is due the double vision, as also
the staggering gait produced by the
loss Of harmony in the muscles OF the
limbs. Should the muscles OF each
eyeball not act exactly as one then Il
different part Of the visual field is eN-
posed to the two retina.
Each rctina, acting independently
see the object and the impressions con
yeved TO the brain are therefore double
instead of single Were the muscles
acting exactly similarly the object would
be seen 10y the same part of each r"tlna
and the impressions therefore conveyed
to the brain would bc single, ordinary
vision resulting Il Kansas City Times.

Natures Freaks In Plants.

Nowhere is the evidence of design In
nature more emphatlcally set forth than
among certain forms Of plant life, which,
in their various functions, seem to az
proach so near the animal kingdom that
the observer feels that here is some
strange plant Notwithstanding that
might possibly form connecting link
between the animals and plants.
In close study of these plants we see
many evidences OF seeming intelligence
that are not found in some animals, and
so remarkable are the actions OF certain
plants that the impression is forced upon
US that we are confronted with intelli-
gence or something strangely akin to it.
In the present paper | wish to call at.
tention to the group which is popularity
known as carnivorous plants, or flesh
eaters. A familiar example is the little
drosera, SO common in various portions
of the country. The plant is small and
inconspicuous. The first one ever saw
caught my eye by sudden flash OF fiery
red light, and kneeling on the damp
grass fairly caught the little carnivore
in the act which has rendered it so fam
Gus. There we're several tender, deli.
cate stalks in the centre, and round
about it near the ground four or five
singular, round, pad like objects about
the size of small buttons. These were
leaves and their upper surface was
covered with reddish tentacles that stood
boldly up, each bearing delicate drop
Of dew that cleaned and glistened in the
sunlight like veritable garnet. Across
the top of the leaves long legged fra
gile insect lay, caught but second be-
fore and dying most terrible death.
Five or six Of the hair like tentacles
were thrown across its legs and wings,
holding it down and pressing its body
nearer and nearer to the leaf, while
other rich, blood red stalks were in all
positions, bending over to encompass the
victim. The sight was horror In a
miniature, and reminded me of the &C
tions of an octopus. 1t has eight sucker
lined arms radiating from small, bag
shaped body, and each arm has all the
sinuosity, all the possibility of motion OF
a snake, ever undulating, quivering, as
if with suppressed emotion, while over
the entire mass waves and varied shades
of color seem to ebb and flow. Cali

A Dogs Birthday.

Right or Left Handed.

The despised left hand makes good its
claims in many cases to be the DETER of
the two. The fingers that touch and
adj just with such nicely the strings of
the violin are surely as cunning as those
that move the bow. The hand that
guides the reins and steers with exact
ness the horse through the crowded
streets is quite as cunning as, one might
say much more than, the hand that
yields the whip. But great is fashion,
unanswerable is theory. 1t would appear
that as life becomes more and more com
pick we are becoming more and more
specialized, aud the difference between
our limbs is encouraged, rather than HIM
dered, by every pair of scissors turned
of at Sheffield, by every screw made in
Birmingham, and by every slap admin
istered to the young offending fingers
that would dare to shake hands incor-
rectly.
1t is curious to notice the vagaries Of
humanity in cases where no hard and
fast line has been already drawn. Al
though most rIght-handed persons put
on their coats left arm first, consider
able percentage thrust in the right first.
Soldiers fire from the right shoulder, but
sportsmen are found who prefer the left.
In working with the spade proportion
of right.handed men grasp the spade
with the left and push with left foot and
right hand; though, when using an axe,
the same individuals would grasp fur.
thest down with the right. The Per.
SLAMS mount their horses from the right
side, which is the different side from
that mounted by Europeans.
The buttons on coats, ETC., are placed
on the right side and the shed of the hair
in boys to the left, evidently to sui
manipulation by the right hand. Th'
great philosopher, Newton, records tina
at first he confined his astronomical OBJ
servations to his right eye, but after
ward he managed to train his left. Blu
there are persons who could not do this,
owing to the unusual strength of thei
eyes. Strange to say, the Chinese as
sign the place of honor to the left. A
kunyenye, in Africa, Cameron relates
being introduced to the heir prcsumptive
to the throne, the nails Of whose lef
hand had been allowed to grow to al
enormous length as a sign of high rank

ing him with the means of tearing tn,
