HELP TO PRESERVE SIGHT.
Things Worth knowing About tn
Eyes,

IS
Few people are aware what an excel
lent tonic a cold water bath is for the
eyes. Not the ordinary sponge bath, with
closed lids, but opening the eyes and hold
ing them open tor a minute or more in
clear, cool water.
To do this take a %teacupful Of water and
hold it close to the eye, against the face,
and open the eye in it. Open and shut
Then dry with a soft towel. Never rub
your eyes; it is an exceedingly injurious
practice, and children should be warned
against it. If your eyes are weak, put a
pinch of salt in the water.
To relieve a sly, wet a compress of old
linen with boiling water and lay on the
sly. Repeat every few minutes several
times, and do this once an hour as long
as it may be necessary.
Good sight is among the greatest bless
lngs of life, and it behooves women for
their own sake to take good care of their
eyes. When you have nothing to do,
when 0 are simply resting, close yOur
eyes and let them rest also. AS long as
the eyes are open they are at work to L
greater or less extent, and oculists will
tell you hat the moisture of the closed
lids is good for them.
Never press the eyeball, as that ~tlattcns
1t and brings on premature loss OF vision.
1t a cinder gets III the eye, wet Il HaXseed
and put 1t IN one corner of the eyend.
Close the lid and the seed will attract the
clnuer and bring it out. Closing the eye
and amounting the edges Of the lid with
Yaseline is another means to accomplish
the same end without irritating the deli
cate organ.-NeW York Press.

PRACTICAL
One Hundred Thousand Grateful Sol
diers,

These war times have tried mems souls
in many unexpected ways, but like Il
shaft of sunshine and good cheer out of
the cloud of priyation and endurance has
been the work that The American To
bacco Go. has done mong the .. S. Sol
diers and Sailors ever since the war be
CANTOR when they discovered that the
camps and hospitals were not supplied
with tobacco they decided to provide
them, free Of cost, with enough for every
man. and have already given outright to
our Soldiers and Sailors over one hun
dred thousand pounds of Battle AK
Plug and Dukes Mixture Smoking
Tobacco, and have bought and distrib-
uted fifty thousand briar-wood pipes, at
a total cost of between fifty and sixty
thousand dollars.
This work has been done quietly and
thoroughly, by establishing headquarters
in each camp, so that every camp and ev-
cry hospital of the United States Army
has been supplied with enough tobacco
for every man and the sailors on thirty
United States Ships in Cuban waters
have shared with the soldiers this most
welcome of all ~''rations,"
Perhaps it will be only fair to remem-
Der when we hear the remark again that
corporations have no souls" that there
is one American corporation whose soul
has been tried and has not been found
wanting in practical kindness"

The Deaf and Dumb Barber.

An experience with a deaf and dumb
barber is something unusual, but a Pitts
burg man tells the following story:
"A couple of days ago l was in a sub
urban town and dropped into a BARRIERS
chair. There were two BARRIERS, one kept
talking along at a good clip from the time
| entered the room, but |. noticed the
other fellow wasn't saying much. AS l
dropped into the chair 1 gave my usual
Instructions Once over and light
The barber kept on saying nothing,
but began to shave me very close. So
deep was he cutting that it hurt me, and
l demonstrated with him. In spite Of my
rapid and forcible talk he kept on shaw
ing close until l Strengthened up in the
chair. He looked at me in surprise, then
glanced at his mirror.
with a queer sound he sprang for
ward and picked up a printed card about
nine inches quare on which was printed
III great block letters the fact that the
barber was deaf and dumb. and that
those whom lie was shaving should take
account of this in i~nstructing him. He
had not noticed that his card had fallen
down and he was profuse in his apologies.
| also apologized to him for getting him
out of temper for a moment

VALUABLE SPRUCE.
Some of it Worth More for Certain
Purposes than the Finest Rosewood.

Spruce is not commonly accounted a
costly wood, but some of it may be very
valuable. Spruce is largely used for the
tops of stringed musical instruments, such
as guitars and mandolins, the finer
grained being the more desirable. The
value Of rosewood depends upon its color
and quality. Is ang in price from a
cent and a quarter to 10 cents a pound.
Thirty-grain Adirondack spruce would be
worth more than the finest rosewood. 1t
might be that not one such log would be
found among 10O0-New York Sun.
