The EYES DURING SLEEP.

II is very important that the ewes
should really rest during the hours az
sleep, and this they cannot do If they
are not properly shaded. If possible
the bed should not be placed where
the light will fan directly on the face
OF the sleeper. but in a small room;
this is sometimes inconyeniCut. and
therefore the windows should be pro-
yided with dark green blinds and arti-
hcial lights properly subdued with
green shades.

strain or other defects. 1t is equally

But the park does not rely on MEM

natural state it is a place of endless
charm. AS everyone probably knows,
1t embraces what was once the main
fighting ground of the two armies that
commended at Vicksburg. And this
ground, hilly and broken, presents 9
variety of beautiful scenes that could
never be found on a more level field.
The grass runs over the crests OF the
hills, down the ravines, up the slopes
like coverlid of green that fits to g
sleeper's form. Every now and then

glimpses Of wild beauty or, equally en-
chanting views Of spots Of historical

indescribable charm to each and every

Gun Crew at Work.
The first panel shows a gun crew at
work on one of the river ironclads as
Porter's fleet swings by the batteries
at Grand Gulf in Its unsuccessful eff
fort to silence them sufficiently to per-
Clernand's Corps. Powder and ball
have been rammed home in the IL

peers through the port hole and the
gunner, Professionally calm and
steady in the midst Of pandemonium

motions his directions towards the

group symbolizes what was going on
at the moment on the six other vessels
of Porter's squadron as, for five hours
their 81 guns hurled projectile after

In the second panel the Union

sault remarkable for the tremendous
daring of the Union forces and the
equally vigorous defense OF the con-
federates. In this assault three Union
flags were planted on the confederate
parapets, among them that Of the 22nd
Iowa. In the concerted movement of
the Union army against the fortifica-
tons two regiments of LAWYERS bri-
gade, the 22nd and 21st Iowa, had
charged the hill leading to the confed-
crate works and had reached the ditch
where they were brought to a halt by
the heavy fire poured down upon them
from above. smaller number, led by
Sergeant Joseph Griffith, managed to
enter the fort, which was for a short
time abandoned by the defenders, but
was commanded by second work
higher up and about 100 feet in the
rear, which prevented the Iowa troops
from maintaining their hard-won po-
sition The scramble up the parapet IS
the instant perpetuated in the panel

upward one man spiking his bayonet
into the clay of the embankment to
helf his ascent, another half turning and
dragging companion after him by the
collar, the color bearer leading and
bending under the weight Of his ban
ner, torn and frayed by the storm OF
bullets through which 1t has already
been carried. And here, as In the 9TH
er panels one sees, beyond the impet-
uous, self forgetful fury of the assault,
the higher motive of patriotism and
love of country actually inspires 1t,
momentarily forgotten. as men must
always forget the motives in the heat
Of strenuous, dangerous labor.

tillery horses in full charge and fol-
lowing piece of artillery whose wheel
is now alone visible, occupy the center
of the panel, fanked by a group of ad-
yancing rinfantrymen; beyond them the
panel is completed by the tossing bay
onets Of the rest of Crocker's division
which here had the advance. And here
again is the orderly disorder of actual
battle with ranks compact, yet each
figure showing its own individuality,
with no perfect alignment of shoulder
ed muskets, but instead a disciplined
crowd of determined men sweeping
forward resistlessly and gathering

In the fourth panel, dedicated to the
engagement Of Champions Hill, the
central figures are the gunners of a
confederate battery firing their last
desperate shot before abandoning their
untenable position, one man aiming a
cannon while another, with his thumb
on the vent, grimly watches the ap
