WnlleGh3 business must come and go.
ZIG has found by recent investigation
thattl many offices business is kent
away by the incessant use made of the
telephone for outgoing messages, some
customers, weary Of finding the tele-
phone door blocked, went elsewhere
to Place their orders, and trade was
thus lost. The outcome of the study
resulted in one or two telephones in
many places being reserved and util-
izeg solely for incoming business. In
0Il6 Instance a subscriber with three
lines complained that he was never
abe to use any of them. tbs was
found to be due to the rush of calls
from outside, and was again remedied
by employing an instrument for out
going talk. Often the Office boy was
discovered to be the impeachment to
traffic. This can be cured by having
each user note his calls. Trouble fire.

Damage Done by o.e shell.

What n single shell can do one
modern projectile flying true to its
marlS-was manifested at the battle
between the Chinese and Japanese
fleets OF the Yalu river in September.
One Canet shell weighing nearly 1000
pounds, vt the Hotter make, struck
the Chinese battle ship Ping Yuen,
crushing through the after part OF the
armored deck, tearing a vast hole,
through which the water poured in
such volumes that the vessel went
down, carrying most Of her officers
and crew with her. The cost of such
a shell is somewhere between $500
and $1,000, but the cost of battle
ship is 100000 up. Such evidence
OF the power Of single shot 90 far
to support Admiral Farrgut's belief
that In the race between projectile
and plate the former was bound to
win, and the result would be that
arm0r would come OF ships as 1t came

that ceasing 10 be protection 1t be.

CROSS EYES MAY BE CURED.
Visual Defect Removed by the
u @t EARLY Use of Glasses

"A Visual Defect Removed by the
Early Use of Glasses.
Strabismus or cross eyes, are now
safely and almost painlessly corrected.
The desired result may be obtained
by the wearing of proper spectacles
In early youth, but, accordinw to the
Philadelphia Record, if the evil is not
then corrected, an operation later on
will be necessary.
The removal of a cataract" from
the eye is one of the most delicate
operations performed by the oculist.
a cataract is formed by the lens of
the eye becoming opaque so as to ap-
pear grayish OF otherwise, when it
shuts out the light from the optic
nerve. The oculist Of to-day cuts into
the ball of the eye and removes the
darkened lens, and the optician sup
plies the defect by artificial lenses
that make good the sight. The de-
mand for glass eyes is increasing as
the character and quality Of the eyes
improve. Unsightly eyeballs are now
removed in part, leaving enough of the
muscles to rotate the glass shell that
Is placed over them. Wher the work
is properly Gone the possessor of the
glass eye can move it about with all
the naturalness of ar cal optic, and in
many eases it is very difficult to tell
the manufactured article from the
genuine. All the wild stories about
substituting rabbits eyes for human
eyes, or the statement to the effect that
oculists can take eyes from their SOCK
cts wipe them on coarse towel and
restore them unimpaired to the happy
patient, are all mconshine, and any one
who is called upon to listen to such
tales is perfectly justified If under
such circumstances he should wink the
other eve.

But he made no effort to go, and
leaning nearer to her he said hoarsely:
'This is the last time l shall ever
be with you alone. You know love
you'll have not tried to hide 1t from
you. Only say you are not angry"
"Not angry but disappointed. II

ST. emily he let her slip from. his grasp,
you will not forgive mel have gone

She pushed him back to his seat,
and regardless of the boats rocking

"No, don't hate you-any more
than l hate myself, but I have never
loved you. Only your coming was

then" She paused, and her slender
figure swayed with the boat.
II had quarreled with my husband
just before you came, misjudged
him cruelty, and drove him from me,
so that he went away and was left
here to break my heart; for love my
husband and I knew I was wrong.
When you came it was comfort to
me. guessed it almost from the first,
but you are so young, that it didn't
seem serious. You must go away and
forget me-there are so many sweet
young girls, and your cousin and I
want to see you happily married. He
has forgiven me-" she went on, for
getful of the pain she was inficting on
him, as her face flushed and her eyes
lost that odd look of despair; che loves
me so that he wants to come back and
is willing"
She stopped abruptly-a terrible hor-
ror palling her face. her eyes strain

white lips opening, but giving forth no
sound. There was a movement in the
still, deep water and she threw up her
hands with shrill cry of horror. The
boat jerked at the chain and the bow

splash as the immense fork dislodged
from the tree where it had only rested

the depths dragging The Lady Of the
