BEAUTIFUL EYES.
An Ocullst Auth GRITTY Says Those With
Large Pupils Are Apt to
BE Defective.

A large pupil is one of the chief beau
lies Of the eye, and so we'll is this rec
ognlzed that the atropia, which dilates
the pupil. has been named belladonpa.
Yet dilated pupil is very common
symptom of defective vision. The iris
is a shutter to regulate the amount OF
light falling on the retina, and il the
latter be dull or defective it requires a
larger supply. Hence dilated rapiI is
often associated with feeble re:ina.
which. of course, means feeble vision.
Short-sighted people have often a
greater convexity of the front of the
rornea, and this lends certain bright
ness to the eye. Apart from these me-
chanical causes, there is a very COM
mon. but unexplained, association of
defective sight, and an irritable and
easily inflamed eye. with some of the
rarer and more beautiful colored irises.
The much-admired violet eye, and GER
tain shades of gray and blue. often suf-
fer from such associated dsfects
Those with long eyelashes are said to
be more subject to "stye" and other in
Examinations.

WITCHCRAFT IN ALASKA.
The Government Trying to Stamp Out
the Troublesome Practice of
the Medicine Men.

The United States court of Alaska.
acting under Instructions from Wash
ington, is endeavoring to stamp out
witchcraft, as prac;iced by the Indian
tribes on the southeastern coast of the
territory. A number OF Indians are at
Juneau under arrest, and their cases
are being considered by the grand jury
that is now in session. These Indians
are very superstitious, even more so
than those of the interior. If the med
icine man is unable to effect cure in
any case he pronounces the patient be-
witched. The relatives of the sick In
dian will accuse some of the tribe of be-
ing the witch devil" The accused is
confined until the fate of the patient is
decided. In every case he is put to
death il the sick man dies. The num-
Der of Indians killed as switch devils"
increased during the past year. and
| Gov. Brady gave it prominence in his
report.
Judge Johnson, in charging the
grand jury, said: You will be called
upon to investigate number OF Of
lenses peculiar to this territory grow
| iEg out of the belief in witchcraft prev
alent among the native people. Many
Of the cruel murders among them may
be traced TO this belief, and it is your
duty not to ignore, but to make patient
inquiry and return true bills where
the evidence so warrants, for the pro-
lection of these people. The stamp OF
the laws disapproval of all such prac-
tees must be emphatic"

Able ON the Platform.

The queen of Roumania is perhaps
the only royal parsonage who acquits
herself as a public lecturer. For some
time past her majesty has been accus-
toned to give lectures privately in her
palace to the young ladies of the lead
ing families in Roumania. These lit
erary assemblies proved SO attractive
that the demands for admission have
grown inconvenient. so that the queen
has thought it expedient to lecture IN
the high school for all the pupils who
cared 10 attend. Before her majesty
could do this, however, she had TO OBJ
tain regular professors diploma from
the king and the minister of instruc-
ton.

Could Change His Mind.

Prof. Hendershott is well known in Pitts
burgh as a man of affable temper, and it is
rare that he shows even Impotence. One
day while travelling on suburban trolley
car to call on a friend, he asked the con-
cars at certain point. Soon afterward the
car stopped and he was surprised to see out
side the very friend he was seeking He
started to leave the car, when the conductor
accosted him. You can't change for your
car here he. said. brusquely. The pro.
change cars here, l tell you," snapped the
conductor again. The professor, deep in
conversation with his friend, merely waved
his hand to signify that the car might GO
on without him. Here" cried the man
IN brass buttons, angrily, don't l tell you
that You can't change cars at this place -
Then the good old professor answered with
severity: "But I can change my mind a,

AFFEcTIONATE DOGS.
HOw an English Setter kescued His
Companion from Death by
Drowning.

An illustration of the devotion Of ami.
being the two dogs of c. P. Pitkin, one
an Irish and the other an English set
Ter, reports the Montpelier (Vt.) Ar
gus. The dogs are devoted to each
other, and are together almost con-
tinually. The other day the Irish set
ter went on the ice on the river behind
Mr.. Pitkin's residence, and broke
through when near the opposite side,
being precipitated into the water. The
animal made desperate efforts to get
out, but the ice continued to break or
the edge under its paws every time it
attempted to climb out. In this way
the dog moved to near the center of tn i.
river, where the swift current com.
menced to drag it under tie ice. When
the dog broke into the river the Eng
fish setter appeared to be greatly dis
turbed, and when it failed to get out
rushed up and down, evidently trying
to devise some pan for rescue. When,
however, the dog commenced to be
drawn under the ice the English setter
set up a heartbreaking howl and ran to
the barn, where George Fitzgerald was
at work, and, barking and evidently
trying to tell him to follow. at last got
him TO the river bank. where he saw
what had happened and pulled out the
other animal from the river. When the
Irish setter reached the shore the other
seeEed overcome and barked and made
the most extravagant demonstrations
of JOY. tapping the other. and very
plainly showing that IT, realized the
danger from which the other had es.
capped and its thankfulness therefor.

indignant to get curly answered:
