Effect Of Coffee Drinking on Eyes.

Snaitkin, according to the Medical
Review, says that the Moors are invet-
crate coffee drinkers, especially the
merchants who sit at their bazars
and drink continually during the day.
1t has been noticed that almost invar-
iably when these coffee drinkers reach
the age of 40 or 45 their eyesight be-
gins to fail them, and by the time they
get to be 80 years old they become
blind. One is forcibly impressed by
the number of blind men seen about
the streets of Fee, the capital of Mo-
rocco. 1t is invariably attributed to
the excessive use of coffee.-N. Y.

While he was presiding elder in this

at Lee Center, in Lee county. and rode
and drove about the circuit. A Mount

to him as a good jockey, not that he
was inclined to horse racing. but that
he was the best judge Of horseflesh in

1.-The young emperor who honors the
Ottoman capital by his second visit is

faith of the middle ages and the steady
perseverance of the captains of ancient
Rome He is an epitome of every age,
a combination Of every talent. Not only
is he interested in every science and ev-
cry art-he is a pronounced specialist. ,
He is a soldier in every sense of tho
word, passionately devoted to his pro-
fession. How inspiring is his eloquence
when he appeals to the loyalty of his
comrades in arms, and with no less
ability does he play the diplomatist in
acquiring sympathy and appeasing
wounded susceptibilities! 1t is a re-
markable fact that in France, where a
journalist once styled him a 'distin-

while an Englishman can perceive no
trace of difference between his accent
and that of his fellow countrymen.
"As to the arts, he is both painter
and author. He can design ships, COM
pose orchestral scores and work out
military plans. and when he seeks rest
after extraordinary exertion he refreshes
his poetic soul by contemplating the
wild scenery of Norway and the Ncrth
