THE OPHTHALMOSCOPE.
An Instrument Which Reveals the Inner
most Recesses of the Living Eye.

An Instrument Which Reveals the Inner
most Recesses of the Living Eye.
To the oculst Professor Won Helmholtz
gave the opbthalmoscope, and thus made
1t possible to investigate the conditions of
the Utmost recesses OF the living eye IL
the eye be illuminated, portion of the
light returns from the hinder surface, Is
brought to focus by the lenses of the
eye itself and forms an image Of the retina
In the external space. To see this was no
easy matter. If the patients eye were TO
cused on a luminous object, the image
would coincide with the source of light,
and even IL otherwise visible would be lost
in the glare. If he looked elsewhere, the
image would move, but inasmuch as the
lenses cannot be adjusted to the clear vi
sion of any object nearer than about ten
inches that is the minimum distance from
the eye at which it can form the image Of
its own retina. To see this clearly an OBJ
server without appliances must place him
self at least ten inches from the image
that is, at 90 inches from the patient. At
that distance the view would be SO limited
that no result could be obtained.
Won Helmholtz, however, convinced him
self that if these difficulties could be over
come the image of a brightly illuminated
retina could be seen. He made the obser-
vations through small hole in the center
of a mirror, which reflected light into the
eye under examination. Then by means
of lens he shifted the position of the i'm
age backward until the relative positions
of the observer and the patient were such
that, according to calculation, the retina
should be visible
Again and again he tried and failed, but
was convinced of the validity of the theory,
and at last the experiment succeeded.
From that time the oculist has been able
to look into the darkness of the pupil and
to see through the gloom the point of en-.
try of the optic nerve and the delicate net
work of blood vessels by which it is sur
rounded. -Fortnightly Review.

Papyrus and Paper.

There Is no evidence that papyrus was
grown for commercial purposes outside OF
Egypt during the whole Roman period,
and the industry of its growth and manu-
facture must have been a large and profit
able one In the time of Tiberius sedi-
ton was nearly caused by a scarcity Of
paper, and a rebellious paper maker in
the days of Aurelian, boasted that he
could equip an army from the profits of his
business-and did 1t too.
Parchment was invented by the Greeks
when papyrus was scarce and the middle
ages reinvented it. There Is evidence that
linen rags were used in paper making as
early as the eighth and ninth centuries.
In paper of that period the fiber was chief
ly linen, with traces of Gotten, hemp and
other fibers The known specimens are of
oriental origin and appear TO have been
clayed, like modern papers, the material
used being starch paste manufactured
from wheat.
The oldest manuscript written on cotton
paper in England is in the British mu-
scum and dates from 1919 A. d., and the
oldest on the same material in the Paris
National library is dated 1860. In 1885
the Christian successors of the Spanish
Saracens made paper Of rags instead Of
raw cotton, which had been formerly EN-
ployed. All the Year Round

Dogs and Consumption.

One of the questions discussed before
the Paris Academy of Medicine was,
Should consumptives and other persons be
encouraged to keep dogs? DR.. Megnin,
formerly veterinary surgeon in the army,
sent in paper to show they should not.
The dog is just as liable as his master to
be infected by tuberculosis and to spread
it. DIR. Megnin had under his care many
canine consumptives. They were of the
lapdog species, and 1t Is said caught the
malady from their masters or mistresses.
Dogs, said DR.. Megnin, were liable to
many sorts of septicemia and to scurvy.
The dog, so teachable was not given any
education of the palate, but was allowed
to eat infectious garbage and nameless
filth. This alone would account for its
liability to rabies The dog, by intelligent
care in its breeding, education and by
giene, might be made the paragon of four
footed beings and the worthy friend and
auxiliary of intelligent human beings
Dogs reflected the moral qualities and the
vices of their masters. Wherever manners
were mild dogs ceased to be ferocious. In
conclusion, the author of the paper pro-
posed the foundation of a chair for canine
anatomy and diseases. London News.

The Decline Of the Dance In Hawaii.

In looking over the polished floors Of
the Kamehameha School For Girls one al
most wishes that its founders had directed
that dancing should be taught and prac-
ticed upon them by the student girls 1t
certainly was a narrow and superficial
view of the native life which held these
childlike people, who did not have story
books and couldn't go wild over the old
catechism, should have been deprived Of
one of their chief sources of amusement.
Though the native dances were objection
able in many ways, they could have been
greatly modified and made respectable
The early teachers not only deprived
themselves of amusements from the die
tates Of conscience, but they failed to pro
vide the natives with any 1t was the re
suit of the Puritan inheritance which
quickly gives way when the Puritan stock
gets out into the world Honolulu Com
