An umbrella, when used in an af-
fray. usually plays an innocuous part.
A fist is often more serviceable, and
the average man would find himself
handicapped with a light umbrella and
would throw it away. In a fight in
Chicago the other day, however, an
umbrella was used with fatal effect.
One Of the belligerents used his UNI
brella as a sword, driving the ferruled
rod deep into his opponents throat.

MOON BLINDNESS.

J. L. d, Elizabeth Miss.-I have q mare
about years old that has very weak
eyes, and sometimes say about every
two or three months. her eyes get so in
famed that she can hardly see. ] battle
them with salt and water but 1t doesn't
seem to do any good, kindly give some
remedy in your columns
Answer am surprised that you do not
recognize SO plain a case of ordinary
moon blindness. for which prescriptions
have very often been given in this
department. The marked popularity Of
this disease is its periodical attacks, va
rying in different animals from three or
four weeks to as many months Between
these attacks the eye Cor both eyes, seem
to get well. But each recurring attack
leaves the eye in q more deranged condi-
ton and the sight will finally be destroy
ed if the ANNA! does not die of some
other disease. There is no cure for It;
but proper attention will be helpful In
postponng the entire loss of sight. When
an attack is seen to be coming on keep
the animal in a moderately dark place and
battle the eyes with cold water for ten
or fifteen minutes three times a day At
ter each bathing apply In the eye a few
drops of a mixture of 10 grains of acetate
of lead, 10 drops Of laudanum and IL
ounces of water. Also give one dram of
odide Of potash in q bran mash twice
day. The effect Of this treatment will be
to leave the eye as clear as before the at
tack, but it will not prevent a return of
the attack.
