students and faculty Of the Bible

had their attention distracted from

borers getting In line promptly at the
stroke Of II o'clock and starting for
beer. There are numerous saloons and
two breweries nearby. so temptations
were plentiful.
A crusade against the liquor sellers
in the shape Of speeches was DISCUSS
ed and quickly put aside as useless and
the students set themselves to devise
some more efficient form Of fortifying
the men against the temptation to
guam beer. Some one suggested a sub
stitute and coffee was chosen. Great
quantities. steaming hot, were carried
among the worknen as they Quit for
lunch and great falling off in the
patronage Of the saloons In the neigh
borhood has resulted. The faculty and
students express much qualification

Pecuiiarities Of Eyes.

The human eye In perfect condition

are only one minute OF arc apart. Put
two objects-as. for instance, two black
circles on q white ground Just one
inch apart and then place them at q
distance Of about 2S65k feet. AS seen
with the naked eye the apparent space
between the circles will be minute Of
arc. This space d plainly the limit Of
detail visible to the unassisted human
eye. Now. e might be supposed that an
insect, having d compound eye, would
be able to see more detail than we can
do-in other words, could separate
small objects closer together. Al &
matter Of fact, owing to the small
aperture Of the lenHs composing the
facets Of the eye and the spacing be-
tween the facets, insects see less detail
than we do. DR.. g. Johnstone Stoney
calculated that q dragon ny cannot see
separately two objects which IRE plac-

coins lying on q table three inches
