been stabbed TO the heart by Dessen.
Death was Instantaneous. Marie's
strained ears had caught the news even
before it reached me, saw her rise
from her knees, heard her burst into a
peal of laughter and watcher her rush
out of the church. From that moment
she lost her senses"
"Never to regain them?" said.
"Ah, never. From that moment the
world ceased to exist for her. When
she lost her parents she did not miss
them; her married sister died, but
Marie had no tears for her; one by one
her friends and companions dropped
from her path, but she seemed uneon-
scious of their departure. Deranged
and helpless, she has survived almost
everyone who knew her in her youth,
The charitable support her"
"And she has never forgotten her
lover?"
"Never! Throughout all these years
not a Friday has passed that she has
not dressed herself in her wedding
clothes and walked 10 the church at
half-past II in the hope of meeting
her bridegroom At first people tried
to reason with her-to prevent her,
but it was no use; then they gave up
interfering with her"
Poor unhappy SOUL"
Whenever ! can spare time l meet

through which you have just witnessed
We're her hopes less strong her heart
might have been broken long ago. The
week is spent in preparing for this day.
Nothing win persuade her that Lou
vigny does not live and that he win not

mercy will let her join him some day"

may be soon. Not until then will she

DESCENDANTS
OF North Christian County Couple
Number 2Is.

Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Hight, Of North
Christian county, living near the
postoffice at Wynns, are a remarka-
BILE old couple and have perhaps
more descendants than any other
couple in the State and SO far as
we know more than any other cou-
pie in the United States.
Mr. Hight is S3 years old, while
his wife has seen her IS summers.
They were married more than half
century ago, They have had
born to them and have reared IA
children, eight boys and six girls.
There are all alive and are married
with large families. There have
been born 96grandchildren and los
great-grandchildren, making 215
descendants in all Most Of these
are alive to-day.
Both these old people are yet
vigorous and Mr.. Hight has this
summer worked in the field and has
made a good hand. His wife is
able to look after the household af-
fairs. These good old people are
Primitive Baptists, and are re-
spected by all who know them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hight say they are
willing to show up descendants
with any couple in the State of
Kentucky. We want to hear of the
ones who can beat them. Glenn S

lHE AGING OF THE Eye.
Not the Cause of the Pupil Growing
Smaller.


Smaller
All oculists know that from mid
die age or the pupil of the eye grows
smaller, until in old age it is no larger
than a pins head Heretofore they
have tried to explain this by saying
that the muscles and nerves con-
trolling the pupils become stiff, or
weak, sooner than do the other mus
cles or nerves Of the body.
This theory is controverted by a
young Chicago oculist, DR.. Norburne
jenkins, who criticises many old
theories ir regard to the ewes.
DR.. jenkins was in New York re-

81 fnd," said he, "that advancing
age only brings into action certain
defects of the eye, and these defects
alone are the causes Of the small
pupil, whether in age or in youth;
and the greater the defect the earlier
the pupil gets small.
"This is proved, because the pupil
resumes its normal size and activity
after the defects are relieved by per-
fectly fitting glasses. In brief, the
small pupil comes from eye strain,
and is not present in perfect eyes.
AS only about one person in a thou
sand has perfect eyes, the mistake
has easily been made Of thinking the
small pupil came from natural loss
Of tone from age, but perfectly fitting
glasses show that these defects have
existed from youth, and that age only
reveals them, and also that when
these are relieved, the pupil resumes
its youthful action.
''It is not age, nor loss of tone of
the muscles or nerves that causes the
pupils to be small in adults. 1t is
either caused by astigmatism, unlike
eyes or far-sightedness
"Astigmatism is an eye trouble sell
dom understood. The apple Of the
eye and the curtain Of the eye are
covered in front by a tough, round
and clear, saucer-shaped skin, some
thing like a watch crystal This is
about as wide and thick as a silver
half-dime, and the white Of the eye
frames it. If it is perfect it has a
shape something like the big end Of
an egg, If it; Is faulty, it is more like
the side Of an egg, or awarped saucer,
and blurs the images that pass
through it.
"In about half the people the two
eyes are not alike in their defects;
for astigmatism, farsightedness or
nearsightedeness are apt to be worse
in one eye than in the other. ~
