The Eyelall.

The eyeball is white because the
blood vessels which supply its surface
are so very fine that they do not admit
the red corpuscles of the blood. The
covering of the eyeball. the tunica
s~olerotcia, thus named for it hardness.
is the largest and strongest coat of the
eye, and overs the whole ball except
the parts occupied by the entrance OF
the optic nerve behind and by the
cornea before. 1t is formed of elastic
fibers running in every direction. and
closely interviewer with each other.
and has few blood vessels compared
with the choroidS. The tendons of the
four recti muscles of the eye are fixed
to the forepart of the tunica solerotica.
These are the cellular vagina covering
them, and have been supposed to give
an additional wilderness to the eye. and
the part given such Wilderness has been
termed tunica a~lbuginea, but the
solerotic o a is everywhere a pure
white, and can receive little additional
brightness from any such covering

"I1l just sweep up this little pile of

Just at that time Bill was slowly

left Johnny, looking with great salts

his hand.

Quickening his usually lazy gait, Bill
rounded the corner to come upon a
a scene of n little excitement.
A small pony carriage had been
standing in front of the house next to
NJ Eraap rTl,o no.t-,,. lr,.-
it had gone into the house, leaving the
pony united and a little girl sitting in
the carriage. A noisy wagon being
driven rapidly by had frightened the
skittish little animal and he began
backing and rearing, finally turning
sharply and starting to run.
The little girl screamed with fright.
No n but Johnny CHANGED to be very
near just at the moment. Dropping
the broom with which he was clearing
away the last of the sand. he ran and
seized the pony by the bit. 1t pranced
about in Il lively jerking
Johnny from his feet, but the small
boy pluckily held On.
1t is not likely that anyone would
have been hurt. for plenty of help was
near. and the little girls father came
running out with her first cry, and was
soon adding his strong hand to John

the gentleman smiled very kindly
on the sunburned, freckled boy.
You did that very WELL" he said.

he went on looking over a handful of
change.

FASCINATED BY GAMBLING.
Refined Women Often Made Helpless by Iu
Alluring Powers.

Aiuihh IoNcTs
1t is often Il matter of wonderment
to me, said a citizen of. Washington,
recently why it is that gambling, even
under its most alluring conditions,
does not disgust persons of delicate
feeling instead of attracting them.
While visiting Monte Carlo a few
years ago l happened to stroll into the
Casino enc afternoon and there saw
seated at n of the tables a beautiful,
well-dressed lady, apparently about
thirty years old. She had a purse full
of gold in front of her and n large bun,
die of bank notes in her hand. She
vas playing rapidly, always stalking
large sums, and in nearly every case
she lost. She played boldly on, but
her apparent composure was belied by
her flushed cheeks and flashing eyes.
After watching a short time l left.
In the evening | returned again to the
gaming room and beheld the lady
seated at the same table. Her bank.
notes We're all gone and she had put
away her purse. as it was an easy ta.l:
to hold her remaining gold in her hand.
She sat looking ixedIy at the table,
from time to time moistening her lips
with a scarcely less dry tongue. Her
face wore look of infinite sadness,
which mig hit have been best relieved
by a burst of tears.
She kept on playing steadily until
all but her last coin was gone. She
held it between her thumb and finger
and gazed at it intently, as though de-
batting with herself about risking it.
She had evidently devised it for some
matter of fact purpose, perhaps to pay
her hotel bill. She did not hesitate
long, however. for the temptation was
more than she could withstand. and
with a hysterical little laugh she threw
it on the table. only to see it raked in
by the %croupier and placed among the
rest she had lost.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

Stub Ends of Thought.

1t is easier to marry than it is 20
love.
Mans mind to him a kingdom is,
while woman's heart is that to her.
A patch on the sea of a poor mans
trousers may be honester than the
crown on a kings head.
There may be charity without re-
Iigion. but there can be no religion
without charity.
Tears that come easy, go easy. Ditto,

Don't nurse a good intent; give it

her heart.-Detroit Free Press.
