WHY CHILDREN soUINT.
shocks to the Nervous system often
the Cause.
From the London Standard.)

(From the London Standard.)
In a learned paper on the subject of
convergent strabismus by Prof. Priestley
Smith, which constituted the last Bow
man lecture of the Opthalmological
Society ii is stated that the onset of
strabismus is often attributed to a fit a
fright, a fall or other such occurrence
and still more often TO an illness. such as
whooping-cough. or measles. Making al
lowance for the frequency of such events
among children. and for a certain disre-
gard of time and sequence in their elders
it seems to me- says Prof. Smith, highly
probable that these supposed cuses are
very often real causes. Some such eX-
planation of the onset was given, with
show of reason, in more than two-fifths
of my cases, and the proportion would no
doubt have been higher had not many of
the patients been brought by persons who
knew nothing of their antecedentS. In
many cases the history was definite. and
not to be upset by cross-examination-
For example, a child who had never been
seen to squint before came from school
squirting badly, having that morning
been put into the corner with cloth over
her head; another did the same immedi-
ately after having his head pushed into d
bucket of water by his brother; another
after sitting in scaldiug water; another
after being terrified by monkey which
Jumped on to her shoulder. No less clear
in many cases was the history of onset
during measles. whooping cough or other
constitutional disorders.
All these are conditions which may
gavely disturb the nervous system. Shock.
anger, or apprehension impair the con-
troll of muscular action: they cause the
knees To shake. the voice to tremble, and
even the hand of the opthalmic surgeon to
become unsteady. Febrie disorders cause
delirium, commissions. and sometimes
transient strabismus, and leave the aer-
vous system exhausted. Is it not highly
probable that such disorders occurring In
young children may interrupt the action
of those higher centers which control the
movement of the eyes, and this not only
where control is already difficult by rea-
son of amblyopia, or error of refraction
but even IN children whose visual appa.
ratus is normal for their time of life, but
not vet fully developed? The old idee
that the squirting child needs little skill
ful surgery and nothing more is dyins
| out. Most people know that glasses arr
| often necessary But that the chile
may require teaching. at some trou
BILE TO use the squirting eye, is aHnev
| idea to nllny. 1t is easily grasped, how
| ever, and must be graspcd if our efforts
| are,to be effective. ] haye used the wore
| edueative as help in that direction. o

Expire sses the Opinion That Con-
grcss VIII he Generous mt the
Coming Session.

Representative Hilborn Of California.
one Of the leading members Of the House
Committee on Naval Affairs. was asked
what prospect there was FOR Increased
naval appropriations at the short ses-
sion of Congress.
- think the committee will do well by
the navy al this session." he replied.
THE appropriations will be generous,
and all that will be required for the prop
er increase and maintenance of the naval
establishment. Ny opinion is that the
navy will be increased hencefOrth on lines
suggested by our experience in the war
with Spain. That will mean that the
largest expenditures for additions 10 the
navy viii be for more powerful battle
ships ana armored cruisers of a high
class. The bsttleship is to be the war
ship Of the future. and the cruisers must

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 24.-The anti
Hanna Republican leaders are flirting with
several younger Republicans In connec-
tion with the Republican nomination for
governor next year. Prominent among
them are ex-Copgressman John A Cald-
we'll of Cincinnati; Mayor r. E. McKis-

S''N
1t is very certain that, without the abolition
OF the British preferential tariff, a reciprocity
agreement cannot be reached. II Canada wants
closer trade relations with the United States it
is illogical for the Dominion government 10 dis
eriminate against this country in her tariff laws
As matter of fact. she should give 10 this coun-
try all the advantages she gives TO the most
favored nation.
The operation of this preferential tariff has al
ready entailed great loss upon American manu-
facturers. 1t is claimed that the shipment OF
American cotton cloth to Canada has fallen off
from Sl.11o,OOO in 1897 to S7SS, 600 in 1895 less
of nearly 81 .000. co., due TO the fact that British
cotton cloths received reduction of . per cent
in duties below that which American manufac-
turers were required to pay.

SNOW, BEAUTIFUL
SNOW is FALLING
THE FIRST OF THE SEASON
Thanksgiving Day La Not the Sort OF
a Day the Weather Bureau
Predicted.

IL SHOWS.
This short sentence is employed not as
a matter of news. but as a matter of con-
venience 1t has probably been observed
by everybody in the District Of Columbia,
that it SHOWS.
There is some humor in the stoim. but
the humor is at the expense of the fore
cast division of the Weather Bureau. The
prophets there said yesterday after due
deliberation and after having taken the
proper soundings, that Thanksgiving Day
would be cold and clear. Ii woald be- they
said. an ideal day for giving thanks. IL
would be one Of those beautiful days
which occur more often in moves than IN
this latitude.
The facts do not confirm the theory.
The day is not the sort OF day which
the weather officials forecasted. The only
feature which saves the day from being
denounced as disagreeable, is that il is
Thanksgiving Day-a day of rest, and
feasting to a majority Of Americans
Another feature of the day, is that this
is the first authentic snowstorm OF the
season Anybody can prove by direct,
original testimony, that it showed today.
II will be recalled that an apochryphal
Snowstorm occurred at the baseball park
last July. Several persons seemed TO
have been told by several other persons
that they were told that il showed. The
matter got into The Times at once and
into other papers in the course Of time
and provoked a scientific discussion. But
today's storm is the first authentic snow
of the season. ii Is also the first snow
ball which has occurred on Thanksgiving
Day at Washington in "a great many
years.
This is how the forecast official at the
Weather Bureau discusses the situation:
No weIl-defned storm appears within
the region of observation.
The barometer is relatively low along
the Atlantic seaboayd. whore light rains
or snow fiurries have occurred. Rain Is
reported IN the North Pacific Coast States
and snow in the northern plateau and
northern Rocky Mountain districts. Over
the interior Of the country. from the Al
Ieghany 10 the Rocky Mountain districts,
fair and very coid weather for the season
has continued.
The indications are that snow fiurries
or rain will occur along The Immediate
middle Atlantic and New England coast
States. and i'm the Southern States and
Ohio Valley the weather will continue
fair and cold. Ia the East Gulf States,
extreme northern Florida and in the in
terror Of the South Atlantic and West
Gulf States the temperature viii fall to
freezing or slightly below tonight
