1t this season it Is as well to make Il
change from the summer dresses. Lawn

now as ever, and there Is a pretty no

WHY People Forget Names.

Many persons are especially forgetful
with regard to names. They are en-
barrassed to find that they cannot, on
the spur Of the moment, recall the
name of an acquaintance, or that Of
some familiar object, although, in other
respects, their memory Is not Preacher.
Gus. DR.. Bastian, in discussing sucE
defects, recently quoted, with approval.
this explanation: The more concrete
the idea the more readily Is the word
used to designate it forgotten when the
memory fails. We easily represent
persons and things to ourselves with
out their names. More abstract con
ceptions, on the contrary, are attained
only with the aid Of words, which
alone give them their exact shape IL
our minds" Hence verbs, adjectives
pronouns, adverbs, propositions anG
conjunctions are more intimately re
lated to thought than nouns are, an<
can be remembered when nouns, o.
names, slip from the mind.

SEEING WITHOUT EyEa

German Say0 These Orgons Are Not
Actually Necessary to viaiou.
Eyes are popularity considered to be
quite necessary to sight. but this Ia an
error. II We are to believe DIR. Nagel,
. recent German experimenter. Many
creatures without eyes can see. at least
they can distinguish between light and
darkness and even between different
degrees Of light. This Is the lowest
degree Of seeing. to be sure. but still
1t Is really sight. and differs scarcely
more from the vision Of some insects
that possess eyes than this does from
our Ow-. clear sight.
Creatures that see without eyes see
by means Of their skins. All skins,
says Dr. Nagel. are potential eyes;
that is, they are sensitive to light In
animals that have eyes the sensitive
ness has been highly localized and
greatly increased-so that man. for in
stance, has a Wtina very sensitive to
light, and an expanse Of ordinary skin
which possesses a sensitiveness to light
90 slight that 1t is hardly conscious of
grees. as is proved l,y the fact that It
sunburns-that Is, light may cause a
disturbance in the pigment Of the skin
just as 1t does in that Of the eye. In
the eye the disturbance Is accompan MED
by a nervous change. which sends a
Geographic message along the optic
nerve to the brain. In the skin, too.
there are nerves. and there are mes.
sages, also, but their udings imprint no
image on the mind; they simply ex-
press discomfOrt-cry out ''sunburn."
But In many eyeless creatures the
lack OF eyes Is In part made up by in
creased sensitiveness of the -yhOle skin
surface to light. Darwin long ago no.
ticed that earth worms. although they
have no eyes. will suddenly withdraw
into their holes ut the approach Of a
lighted candle. Some creatures seem
more sensitive to sudden increase OF
light; others to sudden diminution. II

SUGAR BEET INDUSTRY.

Rio Ora nde Valley.

Santa Fe. N. NJ. Oct. l9.lndustrial
Commissioner Davis Of the Santa Fe rail
way. and party Of capitalists, have been
examining the sugar beet farms in this
locality. They have found acres Of beets
weighing from one to six pounds. which
according TO analysis by the territorial
agricultural college. yielded from Is to Is
per cent sugar. Much surprise is express
ed that Rocky mountain valleys. above
700 feet in altitude. can show results.
There is project ON foot to erect su-
gar factory here and Commissioner Davis
said his corporation will give It all pos
sible support. He also says that II is
probable that eastern capital will in a
short time establish sugar factory some
where in the central Rio Grande valley.

The Queens Wealth.

Queen Victoria Is the wealthiest SOW
ereign that has ever ruled over Great
Britain. All Of her predecessors upon
the throne bequeathed to their success
ors nothing but debts, which Parlia-
ment was called upon to pay. While
the Queen permitted the nation thus to
settle the liabilities Of her uncles. King
George ~. and King William w.. she
made 1t point Immediately after her
succession to pay Off the large debts
contracted by her father. the Duke Of
Kent. This. the portloning of her
daughters. as wei! as some Of her
granddaughter, who have in each case
received from her dowry Of $500, 1000
on marrying and the settlement on one
occasion Of some very pressing liabili-
ties Of the Prince of Wales. may be said
to have constituted the only very heavy
expenses which the Queen has been
called upon to meet since she assembled
the throne, in 1887.
From that time forth until the pres
ent day she has been in receipt OF a
civil list amounting to close upon $3,-
600. 600 year. or this the major p0r-
ton Is assigned to definite heads of
royal expenditure. But $4,000 per an
mum is devoted to what Is called the
Queens pr;vy purse. and constitutes
her pocket money, Of which no account
Is ever asked. Besides this, she has al
her disposal the net revenues Of the
Duchy Of Lancaster, which have
amounted on an average to $780, 600 a
year more. From this it will be seer
that after having all the expenses OF
every conceivable character, down Il
. her very charities and servants wages
betrayed out Of the civil list. she hal
a sum Of Mt least 100000 each year t,
