In an article on tho human eye written
by DIR. Austin Flint the following passage
occurs: Viewed as en- optical instru-
ment, the human eye may well be called
perfect, for 1t Is an apparatus contained in
q globe less than an inch IN diameter, in
which Is produced an image, practically
perfect ia farna aad-enlnr- and which can
be accurately adjusted almost instantly
for every distance from Eve inches 10 In
finity, which Is movable in every direction,
has an area small enough for tho detection
OF the most minute details and 40 the
same time large enough Tor the apprecia
ton OF large objects. and which enables us
20 see all shades OF color and 20 estimate
distance, solidity, and, 70 some extent, the
consistency OF objects" And yet this
wonderful instrument perhaps the most
varied In its capabilities Of any part OF the
body, Ia peTslstcutly misuscd and neglect
ed. Is II any wander that some day no
ture resents this treatment and leaves the
offenders IN total and perpetual darkness
