"We Americans travelling abroad are
apt to be very proud Of L reputation
for cleverness, " said a tourist who went
bicycling in Europe last summer. "And
no doubt We have reason to be. But l
am going to tell you how l had some of
tho corccit taken out of me.
1--WE wero going through Switzerland
and had reached the close Of the first
days descent toward Geneva. The road
had been too steep to coast without the
aid of a brako, and as We were afraid to
use our brakes for fear our tires would
not last US through our trip we back
pedaled all tho way.
"As we woro sitting after supper ON
the veranda Of the lodge discussing the
fatigue of our unusual exercise and
dreading tho morrow, which meant
more of the same sort, our attention was
suddenly called to q cloud of dust de-
scending tho mountain side. Then we
saw a cyclist, coasting as nice as you
please, towing q good sized sapling by
u rope tied TO the rear Of his wheel,
which acted as an effective brake with
out injury TO the tires. One of the boys
calculated, Well, why didn't we think
of that?' Tho rest were simply dumb.
That man was a German. l now take

Teeth aud EyesiRht.

1t is not a generally understood fact
that the condition Of the teeth has
much to do with the health, beauty and
usefulness Of the eyes. That an liberated
tooth will often cause extreme inflam-
nation Of the eyes is true, and a case is
reported of almost total blindness caused
by the teeth crowding together. A half
grown boy, who had complained Of al
most incessant uneasiness in his jaws
and had been visited with periodical at
tacks Of the most violent toothache, re-
tired one night in his usual condition,
but upon awakening the next morning
it was discovered that he was blind.
The eyes presented a most unnatural
appearance and the countenance was
strained and distressed. After a good
deal Of investigation it was decided to
remove some of his teeth and SEQ If this
would afford relief. Six teeth were ex-
tracted and the boy was given sedative
treatment. After a few days the sight
became normal and there has been no re-
turn Of tho difficulty. Children who APP
pear to have too many teeth should be
carefully looked after, especially If they
complain Of their eyes in any way.
Sometimes the symptoms arc only sec
ondary, but an acute diagnostician will
