The presence of hundreds of young
sters of all ages wearing glasses in our
public school should have admonished
the school authorities long ago that
present school methods or practices are
largely responsible for the impairment
of the eyesight of children. In many in
stances it is noted that before child
has passed through the primary grades
it is found necessary to embellish it's
face with a pair of spectacles. While
the present tendency to cover with
glasses the face of childhood may be
partly ascrbed to the modern industry
and persistence of eye specialists, it is
nevertheless a fact that in the large
percentage of cases there is positive i'm
pairment of vision and the glasses are
Indispensable to study and to good
health. There is no longer any DISPOSE
ton to challenge the statement that
visual defects have a positive and direct
effect upon the nervous organization,
interfering with digestion or heart ac-
ton or causing headaches and mental
depression. An investigation of the eye
sight, or visual acuity, Of children in
the public schools of one city, has re-
suited recently in some important dis
closures, among them being the fact
that 30 per cent Of the boys thus far ex-
amined have less than two-thirds of
the normal keenness Of sight, while 81
per cent Of the girls fall below two
thirds OF normal. It is also ascertained
that the first three years of school life
Increase eye defects one-third. The
marked increase in the visual defects
In the first three years of school life is
attributed to the greater concentration
Of the powers OF vision in the effort to
learn to read. In older persons, where
cursory glance at few letters in a line
OF reading reveals the meaning, the eff
fort to read Is not attended with much
eye strain. provided the type is Of good
size. In children however, the eye must
take IN the form OF every letter in every
word. Increased eye defects in the
lower grades are also due to the fact
that the primary rooms are invariably
the poorest lighted. When 1t is known
that eye strain has a deleterious effect
upon the general health and that eye
defects are uniformly accompanied by
decline in mental power. amounting in
many Instances 10 dullness, 1t is easy
to Justify every movement on the part

MAURICE THOMPSON.

With the death of Maurice Thomp-
son, author of "Alice of Old Vim
cennes," at his home in Charlottesville
Ind, one of the most brilliant lights
that ever shone in the literary firma-
ment of Indiana disappeared, and a
career that was destined to outshine
some Of the most prominent of latter
day lltterateurs was cut short.
Maurice Thompson was born in Fair
field, Ind, In 1874. and in early life
removed with his parents to the south
ern part Of Kentucky, and from that
State to the northern part of Georgia,
where he first attempted to describe
life as he knew 1t from observation.
Always a lover of outdoor sports, he
cultivated many of them in this sec
ton. and It was here that the dead au-
thor first learned the art of archery,
which, 1t is said, inspired his noted
work, "The Witchery of Archery"
which had so much to do with reviving
that game in this country.
He entered the Confederate army
when a mere boy and obtained distinc-
ton as a scout and for his well-known

NEW PROOF OF EVOLUTION.

Darwin,s Theory Sustained by Com
pairing the Blood of Men and Apes.
The latest proof of the correctness Of
Darwin's assertion that there Is near
relation between man and ape is furni-
shed by discovery Of the correspond
ence between the blood of man and the
ape.
Blood exposed to the air coagulates-
forms a jellylike mass. After a time
the coagulum contracts and expels a
perfectly clear fluid called serum.
Lately experiments with this natural
serum showed some queer results
When the serum of a rabbit was mixed
with the blood of an animal not closely
related to 1t, for instance a guinea pig.
the blood corpuscles Of the guinea pig
were thereby Dissolved. But the serum
of the rabbit mixed with the blood of
closely related animal, hare, for in
stance, did not affect the blood Of the
hare at ALL
The serum of horse works no
change In the blood of the donkey, but
destroys (dissolves) the blood corpus
cles of the rabbit, lamb or man. The
dog, fox and wolf readily permit ex-
change of blood, while the blood cor
puscles of the dog are dissolved by cat
serum. This, then. seemed to furnish
new and sure means for establishing
blood relationship between animals.
Experiments with human serum show
ed that 1t dissolves the blood corpuscles
of all vertebrates, also those of the
lower ape. But the experiments with
the higher apes gave different results.
Neither the blood corpuscles of the
orang-Outang nor those of the gibbon
were dissolved by human serum, and
human blood was carried into the
blood course of a chimpanzee without
in the least affecting the latters con-
dition.
These experiments serve to show
that the blood of man and that of the
higher apes must be looked upon as
identical 1t is absolutely sure that
none of the tested serum of animal re-
sembles the human blood as closely as
does the blood of those three apes-the
orang-outang, chimpanzee and gibbon.
This highly interesting scientific dis
covery furnishes new proof for the pro-
liability of mans evolution from lower
animals. 1t throws some light on the
sorry experience had with TRANSMISSION
of animal blood in the blood suffering
human beings Some scientists main
tain that the sheep and man, the calf
and man stand too far apart in the or
der of descent to permit intermixture
Of their blood without harmful results.

One Of those persons who are said TO

One does not need to be lawyer in
order to realize the force of Gen. Man
dersons address before the American
Bar Association, respecting the neces-
sity Of uniform divorce laws. No two
States exactly agree in statutory treat
ment OF the subject. What Is cause for
divorce in one State Is not cause In an
other. The result is that the legiti.
macy Of children is called in question
real estate titles are clouded and many
other lnjustices and ann0yances con
tinually arise which could be wholly
avoided by uniformity Of divorce laws
In all the States. Nor is there any Sc
rious obstacle in the way Of attaining
such uniformity. A Joint convention
or representative lawyers from the va
rious States would agree upon : de-
sirable statute and the various Legis-
latures would undoubtedly enact the
necessary legislation. Any Governor
who should take the Initiative In the
matter might depend upon meeting
with a friendly response from his fel.
low executives. And even IL there
should be a few dissenters large ma
jority Of the States would reach an
agreement which would greatly i'm
prove the situation. 1t is unfortunate
that there should be any necessity nj

about to come oan end 1t was taken
for granted that DIR. Eek and Miss
RhOads were to be married at last.
But they were mistaken. The great
stone house was never furnished or
occupied. Gradually the grass grew
tall and rank on the lawn. the bats and
owls invaded the empty mansion, and
the gates and fences fell into ruin.
Everybody called it "Eck's Folly" Still
the old physician kept up his regular
calls on Miss RhOads, and she received
him with as much favor as ever. Final
ly the whole community settled down
to the belief that they would always
remain single. Then 1t was the doc
tors turn to get up a little surprise on
his own account. One evening last
week he and Miss Rhoads were quiet
ly married and moved into the big
house on the hill. A force of painters
and decorators was put to work and
now "Eck's Folly has become "Ecks
Delight"

Most people who are not In gooi
health know In a general way what
ails them; some of them know what
kind of food they ought to eat in order
to overcome their bodily inhrmities and
prevent recurrence of them. But peo-
pie who have good health usually con-
slider only their taste or their pocket
book when they order a meal. An ex-
pertinent which one Of the Boston ho-
tells Is making shows that others be-
sides invalids are beginning to under
stand that II Is important to have the
right sort of food as well as to have 1t
properly cooked. The cafe OF this ho-
tel provides not only a bill of fare, but
diet list made out by a physician
and intended as guide to the patrons
Of the house 1t presc ' es the food
best suited to various physical condi-
lions. To the fat man it offers va
riety of dishes that tickle his palate,
and at the same time check his ten
dency to grow fatter. The thin and
anemic can procure the things which
make blood and tissue and build up an
enfeebled system. The new way of
looking at the food question puts health
first and preference afterward. 1t con-
siders the needs of the individual, and
makes practical application of the old
saying that zone mans meat is another
mans poison" 1t tries to make the
diet like a well-stocked wardrobe, Of
fering plenty Of variety, yet designed
for and fitted to the person for whom it
is intended. Lilac is a charming color,
but the red-haired girl does not need it
to enhance her peculiar charms. Sir
lOln steak is tOothsOme and desirable
thing, but melons and coarse bread
may be better for the full-blooded man
who has tendency to rheumatism.
How one can fit his diet to his own
needs is a matter which the physician
can best decide. 1t is certainly easier
to preserve heath by the use of proper
food than to regain it by taking medi-
cine; and the prescription filed in a
restaurant is pleasanter to take than
one compounded by the druggist.

The peanut seems to be playing the
part of "civillzer' in some Of the for
eign possessions in tropical Africa.
Traders give a negro bushel of nuts
for seed on condition that he returns
four bushels from his crop, and since
the yield in good years is twentyfold,
the black man generally has surplus
which he can sell at the rate Of shill-
ing a bushel From single station in
Senegambia there were shipped, in
1898, twenty-nine thousand tons.

Of the peanut; now statesmen also will
