Color Blind.

John Dalton, without VIII ose discovery
Of tho laws of chemical combination
chemistry as an exact science could
hardly exist, was wholly color blind
His knowledge Of the fact came about
by happening Of the sort which we
call chance. On his mothers birthday,
when he was man CT 2G, he took her a
pair Of stockings which he had seen in
O shop window labeled:
silk, and newest fashion. "
"Thee has bought me pair Of grand
hose, John, - said the mother, "but
what made thee fancy such bright col
or? Why, l can never show myself at
meeting in them. "
John was much disconnected, but he
told her that he considered the stockings
to be Of very proper 60 to meeting
color, as they were dark blush drab.
"Why, they re red as cherry, John, 1"
was her nstonished reply.
Neither he nor his brother Jonathan
could see anything but drab in the stock
ings, and they rested in the belief that
the good wife's eyes were out Of order
until she, having consulted various
neighbors, returned with the verdict,
"Varra fine stuff, but uncommon scar
lety."
The consequence was that John Dali
ton became almost the first TO direct the
attention of the scientific world to the
subject of color blindness - Youth
