Strange Result OF an Accident 80 a
sixteenth century Man.


Several authors of the sixteenth CEN
fury mentioned the existence of a man
who, having lost his eyesight, could
see through. his nose, says the Philadel-
phia Record Thesstory, much doubted
at the time and pronounced. fabulous
by physicians, is nevertheless true il
the researches of =. Douliot prove cor
rect. It seems that the victim had lost
his right eye early in life, and later
on while climbing ON a cherry tree fell
upon a fence, the picl1ets horribly mutt
lating the left eye, the check and the
nose. The surgeon called in consid-
cred the eye entirely destroyed, sewed
up the wound and it healed in time,
forming n large scar where the eye
had beeE. A year later the man, then
considered stoneblind, lay in the grass,
when he surprised himself by discov-
ering that he could perceive through
the cavity of the nose the sky and the
color of the flowers on the meadow
around him. From that time on he
practiced for five or six years TO see
with his nose, which to him became
practically the organ of vision. lie
gradually became more proficient in
seeing in this way and couldse every
thing beneath him while he remained
| quite insensible TO the light from above.
The condition of this man can be
explained scientifically. Although the
lens Of the eye had been torn from its
socket by the fall, the optic membrane
and the nerves at the rear Of tho cavity
OF the eye had retained some of the
seeing power When the eye had healed
together a small hole in the bone over
the nose must have formed which acted
as lens in the same way as pinhole
can be used to take photographic pic
ture. This also proves that the retina
Of the eye acts like a camera obscura
where the objects from the outside be-
come visible when the rays of light
arrive there after passing through a
small opening.

A vALuARLE DISCOVERY.
The Secret OF a Miner in the lkIon-
dixie Gold Yields.

The Secret OF Miner in the lkIOn-
dixie Gold Yields.
The Ilondil1e is responsible for the
concootion of o chemical compound
which promises to revolutionize mining
methods in every section where winter
puts a stop to operations every year.
The nature of the chemical is a Sc
cret, which the inventor viii divulee to
no one. The chemical is simple and
cheap, however, and can be manufac-
tured upon the ground where the mine
is located. The discoverer will locate
several mines in the spring, and devel-
op them tine following summer and
winter. Nomatter how cold the atmos-
phere, it win not interfere with the
thawing properties Of the wonderful
fluid.
The value of such a discovery is
readily apparent II practically con-
quers the Inconvenience Of cold and ex-
treme temperatures, and does away
with the necessity of thawing the
ground by the slow and tedious meth
Cd Of building fires and allowing them
to thaw out the frozen earth. The in
yentor estimates that tho chemical viii
melt the earth TO the depth Of two
feet. Continual application of the fluid
will allow the miners 10 keep continu-
ously at their labor.
Besides using the fluid for developing
whatever mines he locates, the in
ventor will take up enough material to
supply the other miners at reasonable
prices.
