Tribune, has a summer place on Peli-

next neighbors are often camping In

Sunday Magazine.
About nine O'Clock one night two
men came to her house asking her TO
go to a saloon and set the shoulder OF
a huge half-bred Indian named Billy.
As she entered the saloon her splendid
head, fine features and snow-whlte
hair, shining out against the dark
background OF lumbermen and farm

HAD ALWAYS SEEN DOUBLE.
For That Reason Woman strangely
Afflicted supposed Others
Were the same.

A remarkable story can be verified
by well-known oculist in Kansas
City, says the Journal. In one of the
counties of western Kansas is a cat
tleman who has grown wealthy. His
wife, a charming woman of some 40
years, recently began to have severe
headaches. A local physician decided
that the trouble was with her eyes.
The family could not believe 1t, as she
had very keen sight from both far and
near. However, the husband took her
TO an oculist in Kansas City for ex-
pert examination. In the course OF
the examination the professional man
held up a candle and asked her what
she saw. Il see the two lights" she
answered calmly. Two" exlaimed the
surprised husband. Have you always
seen two Of me when you looked at
me?" why, certainly. dear" was the
answer; don't you always see two OF
me?"
And then came the revelation that
this educated. intelligent woman had
never known in all her 40 years Of life
that everybody didn't see double. She
had accepted her own condition as
matter OF course. II instantly account
ed to the husband for little indefinite
movements which he had frequently
observed in his wife when she was
reaching for an object, and it was a
matter of great establishment TO the
woman when. by an adjustment Of
glasses and thorough treatment, she
began to see as other people do.
