A GOOD IDEA.

A lot of San Jose people have or
ganized a Don't Knock club.
Boost, not knock is its motto, and
members are under obligations not to
talk III Of their neighbors.
Its purposed is summed up in the
statement, 40 overcome in its mem
bers the deplorable habit Of speaking
i'll Of our fellows, and by precept and
example trying to induce others to DO
likewise
A Is cent fine is a penalty for a
violation Of the rules.
Whether in a society having the
announced purpose Of that at San Jose
or not, it might be a good idea for peo-
pie all along the line TO see just how
long they could get along and live
comfortably while trying to live up TO
the simple requirement.
There's room for some sentiment OF
this sort in most every town. and for
its application to other things than
personal remarks. too.

FATIGUE or THE EYES.
How to Tell When They Are Suffer-
ing From ~OverwOrk.

How to Tell When They Are Suffer.
ing From OverwOrk.
1t is no more dangerous to tire the
eyes thar to tire any other organ or
the body. It does not hurt the hand to
tire it, and after a brief rest 1t is as
good as ever. 1t is the anne way with
The eye.
Every precaution should be taken to
preserve and aid the sight. The light
should come from over the left shout
der. Artificial light should be steady.
Pains or blurring or any symptoms OF
blindness should receive proper treat
ment, and when necessary glasses
should be used. These are common
sense measures for the preservation of
the sight.
But when this is done the worker
need not feel alarm over having to use
the eyes daily, perhaps for a long Pc
riod and until they are very tired.
When the eye for a long time rests
upon near objects, the muscles which
adjust the eye to vision necessarily get
tired, but If the eyes are rested at
proper intervals no harm will be done.
The eye can bear maximum fatigue
as well as other parts of the body.
A sure way of telling when eyes are
overworked is by the fact that their
natural power and freshness fail to re-
turn after a proper amount Of rest
When this is the case-that is, when
they have had time to feel fresh again
and there Is still the strained, weary
feeling-they are being overworked.

Electric Light in Notre Dame.

Paris Corr Of the London Pail Mall Gazette.
One by one the old landmarks of Paris
are disappearing beneath the advancing
strides of science and the requirements OF
an ever-increasing population. But yes
terday the Place de rEtoile. where the Arc
de Triomphe stands. was a suburb and
Passy was a village in the country. Now
the Etoile is almost in the center OF the
town. and not only Passy but Maisons Laf-
fitte and st. German are almost suburbs.
The Palais Royal under the colonnades of
which the gay life of the empire used to
center, is a desert: the Temple-the Petit
coat Lane of a few years agois disappear
ing altogether: and now electric light Is
being rapidly installed in Notre Dame The
white haired officials and the stately Suis-
SEES do not approve Of 1t. Progress? Per-
hapa." they answered sadly when Ques-
toned them this afternoon: but surely, in
q church with such a record, something
might have been left to sentiment. Even
the tourists will not likesthe garishness Of
electricity, and for those who come here to
pray alas! the charm of holy dimness in
the place enhanced the fervor OF their pray
ers. which will be vivid now. and to the
point / suppose, like this new electricity"
But Paris is forgetting Notre Dame, and
knows it and its history no longer. But
yesterday two ladies-fashionable ones too
were talking of the old cathedral as they
left 1t. "And propos, ma chere," said one,
who built the church," "Que tn es beteI

American Energy VS.. English.

When the Egyptian government placed q
large order for railway bridges Of excep-
tional size in the United States, British
makers Of such goods excused their back
wardness in allowing the business to slip
out of their hands on the ground that GER
tain American firms happened to have the
very things required in stock. The same
extenuahon was pleaded when American
locomotives were preferred to English when
occasion arose to increase at once the roll
Ing stock of some Burmese railways. But
two new orders have lately been sent across
the Atlantic which surely ought to have
come within the compass Of British
achievement. In the one instance a gigan-
tic American dredger will shortly be seen
scoOping out the bed of the Thames to an
increased depth of four feet. In the other,
a dozen motor omnibuses. of American de-
sign and manufacture. threaten to add to
the existing congestion of traffic in Lon
don streets. 1t must certainly create an
idea among foreigners that John Bull. of
old the self helpful, is getting played out
when he finds himself constrained to invite
American assistance in such purely domes-
tic matters. 1t was not to be expected Of
course that any British firms would keep
in stock such out-of- the-way goods But
their American competitors were. it is
said, similarly circumstanced when the de-
mand first arose. The difference was that
they at once addressed their minds and
energies to supplying the required articles.

Napoleon's Character.
Goodwin Smith, In the Atlantic.

G0ldwin smith, IN the AtlAnt1c.
In character Napoleon may be said to
have been not so much wicked as devoid of
moral sense. The first principles Of moral
ity seem to have had no place in his mind
and it is difficult to see how they could
have found entrance there. He had really
no country. and consequently no patriotism
Born a Corsican. and setting out with Bit
ter hatred of France as the destroyer Of
Corsican liberties. he never really became
a Frenchman. He never learned to write
the language, hardly to pronounce it.
Franco was the seat and fulcrum of his
power. his throne and the recruiting
ground Of his armies. Whatever he might
say in proclamations. in his moments of
sincerity he spoke of the French con-
temptuously as people who were to be gov
erned through their vanity, which it was
necessary to feed with a perpetual course
of victories. Domiciled in France. he had
consorted with set of adventures as
profigate as any that the world has seen.
The only sort of public morality with which
he had ever been impressed was the fidelity
of the soldier to military duty.

Telephones and Disease.
from the Literary Digest

From the Literary Digest.
That the telephone transmitter may serve
to carry disease from one user to another
has been suggested more than once. The
feasibility of such occurrence has been
experimentally tested by DR.. William Bissel
of Buffalo. who reports his results In the
Buffalo Medical Journal. They are mega
tive. far as thc, go. and seem to indicate
that the suppce: danger is rather remote.
We quote the following abstract made by
the Medical Record:
1T is well known that an individual to all
intents and purposest in good health may
be the carrier of noxious germs. For in

was being made being the diphtheria bach

out, you can have first class cold.
Some raw cloudy day when the wind
blows from the northeast, go up town
wearing no shawl or cloak for the pur-
lose Of making vain display of your
new style dress, and you will surely pre-
pare yourself for grippe or pneumonia.
Whenever your clothes become thor
oughly wet, do not make an exchange
for dry ones, but allow tho wet ones
to dry upon you. After doing this
several times you will be fit subject for
consumption.
When you go to party Of some kind
which carries with it the dignity of
Sristocracy, take otf your heavy gar
ments in almost mid winter, and dress
yourself thinly, so as to make neat,
wasp-like apI earancs, and you will
surely fud to your satifaction, that
there is no better way Of comforting a
/ deep seated cold.
Lastly come to tho conclusion that
you are all the composition OF cast iron
and entertain the Lnshaken belief that
you can endure all you encounter, and
then expose yourself by disobeying the
laws Of your mortal being for the sake OF
carrying out some fashionable notions oi
vanity, and in very short time you viii
discover to your utter astonishment
that you are as good for nothing, as frai
as tender and as weakly as hot bed
plant, that has been years in the dense
shade.
Now, il the foregoing items which are
only hints to many ways by which tC
