Measuring Eve Jumps.

We know that an eye, at ordinary
reading distance, takes in about one
inch of a line at a time, and that in
reading line of an ordinary book the
eye makes five or six (more or less,
according to the length of the line) dis
tinct jumps. But how many know
what direction the eye takes in making
these jumps? And, as the movements
are so very minute and rapid, how have
they been studied? A very ingenious
means has been employed, as follows:
A beam of light is thrown upon the
cornea of the eye under examination,
and this beam is reflected by the cor
nea on to a Photographic plate. AS the
eye moves in reading the reflected beam
also moves, and upon developing the
plate, which is also kept moving, zig
gag line is found. A study of such
Photographic tracings shows that the
eyes in turning back to pick UP the
next line have some difficulty In so do
ing.
The longer the line of print the great
er the effort, and for this reason we
may conclude that narrow line is bet
ter for an eye than long one, and if
the line be much wider than the Ordi-
nary newspaper column there is great
err effort involved.-Jewelers' Circular
Weekly.

A Woman.s Complexio n.

1t is rank foolishness to attempt
to remove sallowness or gressiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or local treatment, as advocated
by the beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that woman can
improve her complexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly on the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, purifies the
complexion. It also cures consti-
patton, biliousness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case of dyspepsia
and digestion. New trial size bottle
20 cents; regular size 70 cents. At

Child MARRIAGES in India.

More than 250,00O girls in India, S
years OF age or less, were already mar
ried when the last census was taken,
and of these necessarily many have
become widows. Between and 10
years the number of married girls was
well over 100000, between 10 and Is
years it had risen to nearly 100000.
Of course, to the girls in the first two
categOries marriage meant nothing
more than contract entered into for
them by others, long before they them
selves were capable of understanding
it; many of them had been bound by
engagements when they were still chill
dren in arms; some had even been be-
trothed before they were born.
Most of the widows Of such tender
years become so before they know what
widowhood means. 1t is only as they
grow out of infancy that they learn the
sad life to which they are condemned,
to people of western countries, yet is
enforced by HindOO customs. 1t is
life of hardship, of unmerited shame, of
irksome penances and of wearisome at
tendance at religious functions.
Though the English law in India
would recognize the legality OF re-
marriage of these youthful widows, in
exorable custom forbids it and it's oc-
currence is rare. There were in India
in 1901 nearly 426,0O0 widows under Is
wars of aon Of which noor1v On 000
were less than years DID,

From the Press:
Bayfeld's fishing feet was safe in
port during the recent gale and the
only loss sustained was to nets and
time.
Loggers report about sixteen in
ches of snow in the woods which
makes it bad for those having logs
unskidled.
When you mention storm to the
"oldest inhabitant'' he merely
shakes his head and passes on. He

Thanksgiving turkeys were twenty
two cents pound here this year.
A mans bump of hope needs to be
of washtub proportions if he can
feel thankful under such circum
stances.
Those individuals who persist in
speaking i'll of their home town
ought to remember that it is a
filthy bird that befouls it's own nest. "
Bayfield, has clubs of several kinds
but none devoted wholly to it's ma
terial advancement as has many
other towns, not very far away.
Why not convert the ''Hasbeens"
club into the ''Get There" club?
