SEEING WITHOUT EYES.
A German Professor Says These Or
gans Not Necessary to Vision.

Eyes are popularity considered to be
quite necessary to sight, but this is an
error, if we are to believe DR., Nagel
recent German eXperimenter Many
creatures without eyes can see, at
least they can distinguish between
light and darkness, and even between
different degrees of light. This is the
lowest degree of seeing, to be sure,
but still it is really sight, and differs
scarcely more from the vision Of
some insects that possess eyes than
this does from our own clear sight.
Creatures that see without eyes see
by means of their skins. All skins,
says Dr. Nagel, are potential eyes:
that is, they are sensitive to light. In
animals that have eyes insensitiye-
ness has been highly localized and
greatly increased-so that man, for
instance, has retina very sensi-
tive to light, and an expanse of ordi-
nary skin which possesses a sensitive
ness to light, and SO slight that it Is
hardly conscious of it. Yet his skin
is sensitive in some degrees, as is
proved by the fact that it sunburns-
that is, light may cause a disturbance
in the pigment of the skin just as 1t
does in that of the eye. In the eye
the disturbance is accompanied by q
nervous change, which sends telegra-
phic message along the optic nerve to
the brain. In the skin, too, there are
nerves, and there are messages also,
but their tidings imprint no image on
the mind; they simply express dis.
comfort-cry out "sunburn."
But in many eyeless creatures the
lack of eyes is in part made up by in
creased sensitiveness of the whole
skin surface to light. Darwin long
ago noticed that earth worms, al
though they have no eyes, will sud-
denly withdraw into their holes at the
approach of a lighted candle. Some
creatures seem most sensitive to sud-
den increase of light; others to sud-
den elimination. If number Of
oysters, kept in a vessel together are
found to be open, they will shut all
at once If dark object comes be-
tween them and the light. Another
beyalve, called psalmodia, has long,
whittish, transparent tubes which pro-
trude from the sand in which 1t lies
buried. If these are suddenly illum-
mated they contract and the brighter
the light the greater the contraction
If number Of them be carried into
direct sunlight, they hasten to bury
themselves in the sand; or, if there
is no sand, they move restlessly to
and fro in the water until they are
exhausted Boston Journal

The news Of the safe arrival OF the
Oregon in American waters was a
source Of unalloyed satisfaction to all
the naval officers. Apprehension as
to the safety Of the Oregon practically
disappeared when the vessel reached
the Barbados and reported her ar
rival to the navy department, but
there was always chance that she
might suffer from an accident or a
hostile attack in the short distance

CLASSROOM NOTES.

Boston is soon to have something
entirely new in the way Of school.
1t is to be called the School of House.
keeping, and is expected to do much
toward solving the domestic problem.
AT this new school housekeeping is to
be regarded as a science and to be
studied as such. 1t is to be a school
where employers and employees may
together learn the business OF house.
keeping, and 1t will aim to have its
graduates well versed in every branch
of domestic service.
The public schools are the means Of.
saving a great deal Of property. It

kinds to the amount Of 81 600 900 a
day.

DAILY PAPER ADVERTISING.

The World-Herald, OF Omaha, Neb..
claims to have solved the problem OF
how to get advertising during tho
dull summer months. and at the same
time Is giving retail merchants In
that city boom In summer trade.
This Ia being done by clever
scheme which originated, 80 far M
the present knowledge OF tho writer
Is concerned. with this newspaper.
The scheme Ia TO issue advertising
certihcates--ten certificates for every
dollar OF advertising all mer-
chants who advertise In the paper
during the months OF May and June.
One OF these certificates Is given out
by these merchants to every person
who buys dollars worth OF goods Of
them. the number customer can
get at one purchase being limited,
however. This arrangement IL In
force during May and June. and al
ready thirty-two leading merchants
have agreed to give out the certin-
Gates.
The incentive for people to call
for these certificates is found In the
liberal prizes offered by the paper to
the three largest collections Of thess
certificates presented at It's Offices on
July 8. These prizes are a piano, n
bicycle and an encyclopedia, aggrega-
ting in value about 5000. The out
come OF this scheme will be watched
with interest. Advertising Expert

RULES.

1t is Impossible to promulgate
set OF rules that will produce a MIL
lionaire, and IL Is equally impossible
to indicate one that will produce sue
cessful advertisers. In both cases
success comes as the result OF taking
advantage OF every opportunity, OF
being courageous and persistent, OF
using common sense and good judge
ment. II is the personality behind
the methods rather than the methods
themselves that make success IN
advertising or anything else.

With all due respect 10 the force Of
circumstances 1t must be said that
this is not a favorable time to look
for markets. One cannot make yearly
contracts for these surplus eggs be-
cause the surplusaSe is n matter OF a
few weeks only. This is the season
of the year TO encourage the home
market" Better make the heaviest
table drafts upon eggs now. Let there
be plenty OF eustards and puddings,
Let the home consumers get their I'LL,
so that the draft on the high priced
eggs later may be less, Thus one may

Poultry Notes,
Don't forget about sowing turnips
where the early potatoes were and In
the places whore the corn Is thin.
They make good winter feed for
chickens and sheep, cows and hogs,
and even the horses win relish them
when green feed Is gone,
If you have soma good chickens,
ducks, turkeys or geese. prepare to
take them to the county fair. The
poultry department always has as
many visitors IA any other place, and
good display there increases inter-
est In the business,
The best perches are made OF shin
Cling lath and Turing strips, 1x2
inches, laid fiat, and the corners OF
tho upper side rounded nicely to fit
the foot of the fowls.
A sheaf or two OF oats scattered
around for the poultry every day will
keep them busy and add to the gen.
eral health by inducing them to take
exercise.
Take good care OF the late-hatched
chicks. August is about the hardest
month Of the year on the little fell
