LOST EYESICHT
Through Coffee Drinking

have been but few cases Of its kind
before, and they have been caused by
whisky or tobacco. Leach has never
used either, but has been a great cof-
fee drinker, and the specialists have
decided that the case has been caused
by this. Leach stated himself that
for several years he had drank three
cups OF coffee for breakfast. two at
noon and one at night. According to
the records Of the specialists OF this
country this is the first case ever
caused by the use of coffee.
The nerve is ruined beyond aid and
his case is incurable. The fact that
makes the case a queer one is that the
sight forward has been lost and the
side sight has been retained. Accord
ing to the doctors statement, the
young man will have to give up cof-
fee or the rest of his sight will fol-
low and the entire nerve be ruined

Be Orioinal.

Do not be afraid of being original,
even eccentric Be an independent,
self-reliant new man, not just one
more individual in the world. Do not
be copy of your grandfather. OF
your father, or of your neighbor.
That is as foolish as for a violet to
try to be like rose. or for daisy to
ape a sunflower. Nature has given
each a peculiar equipment for it's pur-
pose. Every man is born to do GER
tain work in an original way. II he
tries to copy some other man. or to
do some other mans work, he will be
an abortion misf1t, a failure.
Do not initiate even your heroes.
Scores of young clergymen attempted
to make their regulations by imitat-
ing Beecher. They copied his voice
and conversation, and initiated his
gestures and his habits, but they fell
as far short of the great mans power
as the chrome falls short Of the mas
terpiece Where are those hundreds
of imitators now? Not one of them
has ever made any stir in the world

EXTINCTION OF ANIMALS.
Buffalo. Elephant, Lion, Giraffe and
Others Passing Away.

Recently published transations from
the German writings of c. b.. Schill-
ings, the noted African traveller and
animal photographer, have been inter
esting a good many people in this
country. says the Indianapolis News.
Mr.. Schillings has an enthusiasm for
this sort of scientific investigation that
has carried him to daring lengths in
the achievement of his purpose. He
realizes that the larger animals of AT
rica-the elephant, the lion. the giraffe,
etc.-are rapidly becoming extinct
that in few more generations the
world will know them only as it now
knows the dodo; and for this reason
he has undertaken to make an accur-
ate and scientific record of their exist
ence in their native habitat. To do
this he has gone into the widest parts
of the dark continent and photo-
graphed these animals in their wild
state, both at night by means of flash
light and in daytime with such sun
exposures as he has been able to OBJ
tain His work has been excellently
done. and the record is interesting to
us, and will be even more so to those
who come after us.
With its economic usefulness it IS
likely tnat tne elephant VIII. III tne
course of time, take the status of the
camel in the Orient and never become
extinct. But the others are doomed.
The graffes are almost gone. the rhi-
noceros and the river horse" are be-
coming rare, and lions grow scarcer
year by year. And this is largely be-
cause of killing for sport" Some OF
these animals, to be sure, are danger

Rinutail Wildcat Caught.

ringtail wildcat, an animal decid-
edly rare in northern Michigan, has
been caught by Herman Thiele, a Ne
gaunee man, in a trap set at Goose
lake. The animal has fine silky gray
fur. Though there are some black
stripes down the back, the most strik
ing characteristic is a series of black
stripes around the bushy tail. In this
appendage it differs radically from the
ordinary wildcat. The wildcat, like
the lynx, is possessed of bobtail,
while the ringtail cat has tail over a
foot in length and very hushy.
