Snakes may almost be said to have
glass eyes, iuasmuch as their eyes nev.
er close They are without lids. and
each is covered with a transparent
scale much resembling glass When
the reptile casts its outer skin the eye
scales come off with the rest of thu
transparent envelope out of which the
snake slips.
This CLASSY eye scale is so tough that
1t effectuully protects the true eye from
the twigs, sharp grass and other OBJ
structions which the snake encounters
In its travels yet 1t is transparent
enough to allow the most perfect VI
sion Thus if the snake has not a glass
eye it may. at any rate, be said to wear
eyeglasses.
A similarly protected or cased eye
which very nearly approaches a glass
eye, or, at any rate, an eye in glass. is
to be found In fish. From the charac-
ter of the element In which they live
and the subdued light that reaches
them fish have no need of eyelids either
to wash the eve or protect it from
glare and therefore eyelids are absent
but some of them need the protection Of

On one occasion u barrister who was

roundly rated those who were still

gregation for not coming TO kirk and
remarked, Those of We who do come

a voice said, If I'd nae been an idiot
| had been asleep too "
While generally ocular at the ex-
pense of others, the commissioner could
appreciate and enjoy a good repartee
even at his own expense. Thus on
one occasion an advocate with a beard
and mustache, which he then hated,
appeared before him. How can
hear you, sir II you cover up your
muzzle like terrier dog?" he asked.

If, instead of shooting the birds,
scotching the snake, smashing the
beetle and pnching the tiny life out
of the butterfly we were to watch any
one of these creatures on a summer
day the day would pass like an hour,
so packed with exciting experience it
would seem. Through what mystic
rious coyerts Of the woodland, into
what haunted underworld of tunnel
ed banks and hidden bitches and Sc
cret passages the snake would show
Us the way, and we should have
strange hearts II, as we thus watched
1t through its mysterious day, we did
not find our dislike of the clever little
creature dying away and even chang
ing into a deep tenderness toward the
small, self reliant life, so lonely speck

RestfuI Simplicity.

of modern simplicity in the way of
decoration Beauty of colors in car,
pets and wall paper has been sought
and beauty of line in furniture, but
there is very little of what we call
bric-a-brac and in some of the rooms
there are no pictures, but plaster casts
