From III" Ei"oklln Eagle.
The horse shOw this last week has led to
mu@h intelligent conversation about one of
our best friends. Some school girls who
wer" interested in thu entries stood discuss
ing the Necessity for putting h!in,!ers on
horses. An exhibitor. % whom the qu nstion
WAS referred. suggested the following in
tercstin.s experiment in order to test how
wide our range of vision is: Put your arms
out straight in front of You. the hands open
and together. Fix yoar eyes upon some
stationary object directly facing you.
Then move the arms back slowly and note
carefully the exact point ct which you lose
sight Of one or the other while the eyes re-
main upon the point originally selected.
That viii explain your width of vision.
Now, q horse has A much wider range.
Moreover, his eyes magnify to sIch a de-
gree that human beings appear d giantS.
1t is said that is compared with our sight
objects are at least five times high. With
such an eye and such sensitive or@aaiZa-
ton the horse possesses. il may easily be
seen how dangerous it would be TO attempt
to drive a horse through crowded street
unless vision could be in some way limited.
Nhe test, as the listeners applied it, re-
suited in a strange discovery, namely that
those who We're near-sich teI had the widest
range of vision. This may account for the
fact known to naturalists that near-Sightcd
persons are apt to be the most fortunate col
lectors in an exploring party.

Coffee as Il Disinfectunt.
From Modem Medicine.


"A year ago a Russian bacteriolog!st
made some experiments for the purpose of
determining the influence of coffee in de-
stroying disease germs The conclusion
was that coffee is to some degree a disin-
fectant. The dsinfeCtant properties of cot
lee depend. however, not upon the active
principle Of coffee, or caf"ln which it
contains. but upon the substances develop
ed i'll the roasting of the coffee. 1t was
found that the various substitutes for COT
Zee are also GcrnllcideS, AMI. like it, de
Nelop diSlnfectant properties during the
roasting process. \ watrry infusion Of
either coffee OF its substitutes was found to
be capable of killing the germs Of cholera
within few hours. and OF typhoid fever
in a somewhat longer time. The conclusion
should not however. be drawn from these
statements that either coffee or its SubSti-
tutes are to be considered OF value on ac-
count of their slight antiseptic properties
as too long a time is required for the de-
StructiOn of germs by them.
