not move on its way.
A chemist who happened to see
the affair went up to the bullock

Enset Of Age On the Exe..

The following are some of the ef-
fects of age upon the eyes: The cor
nea takes the form of border ring
of whitish tissue, the cause being
the fatty degeneration of the sur
rounding parts of the cornea. The
strength of sight decreases with age
until it becomes difficult to distin-
guish small objects placed close to
the eyes. This, however, may be in
q great measure remedied by the use
of suitable spectacles. Cataract, al
though frequently accompanying
old age, is by no means a necessary
consequence of it. In youth the lens
is perfectly transparent and color
less. After the thirtieth year it be-
gins to acquire pale yellow tint,
and as age advances this becomes
more pronounced until it is finally
transformed into a deep amber.
These changes in the normal trans
parency coincide with a failing in
nutrition, but their progress is not
accompanied by loss of sight When
a total loss of nutrition ensues, how
ever, the lens becomes quite opaque,
and the operation for removal,
which has been brought to such per
lection in late years, becomes neoes-
sary.-New York Ledger.

A. Queer Gravestone.

Henry Jacobs of Lincoln, Kan,
has erected a curious monument
over the grave of his son, who was
of rowing disposition. He had a
stone cut in the shape of an old fash
ioned travelling satchel On the plate
in the center of each side is the
name, ~. s. Jacobs" just above
the name is this inscription: Here
Is Where He Stopped Last" Un-
derneath the name are the date of
death and his age. The stone is
white marble, and the base is a big
bowlder which the father hauled
from his farm and rolled on the
grave. When questioned as to why
he chose such q unique design, the
old man said: WAL, Jim, he were
a sort of a rovin feller, and I allow
ed that this design would bout suit
him. He never stopped very long
before in any one place, but the last
time see him he were at the grave
yard, and l jes' concluded that he
might stay thar long while. So
had a sign printed on ther stone
sayin whar he was last seen and

teers and regulars. The Trib-
une has secured the names of
1894 who have died in camp. on
transports or at home after
contracting the dread malady
at one of the camps.
There is no doubt about the
1884 whose names have been
secured. Neither is there any
doubt that there are hundreds
of dead whose names could not
be secured on account of the
lack Of records or inability or
unwilllngness of army officers
to furnish lists of the dead.
The Tribune gives the follow
ing statistics of dead in each
camp. giving in every instance
a full list of names and the ma
ture Of the disease. The list
