Granular EYelids.

Trachoma, or granular eyelids, is the
disease which the authorities are striv-
ing SO. hard TO keep from becoming
established in this country. 1t already
prevails here to a considerable extent,
but it could be overcome if fresh cases
could be excluded: and il is because
many wouId-be immigrants suffer
from it that they are turned back from
these shores every year.
Ii is a disease which afflicts chiefly
The poorest classes in Europe, espe-
cialiy in Russia and Poland, and it's
spread through contagion is increased
ny The dirty I'D unhygienic surround
ings i'm which these people live.
The disease is extremely contagious,
and if introduced into a public school
Is likely to attack a very large number
Of the pupils unless it is early recog-
nized and the sufferers are excluded.
The Inflammation, which soon be-
comes chronic n its course, involves at
first the mucous membrane which lines
The lids, but is almost certain, if neg
lecUed. to spread to the covering of the
eyebaH If the lid is examined it will
ne seen TO be studded on its under sur
face with a number of little round bod
les Of a grayish-white color, embedded
in the thickened mucous membrane.
The upper lids droop, so that the eyes
are only half-open. After q time the
eye itself becomes affected and the cor
nea grows Opaque. This leads to more
or less complete blindness.
The treatment of granular lids must
be energetic, and begun early, if relief
is to be hoped for, since the disease is
progressive one, which advances
steadily to soaring and impairment of
vision unless checked in time
The treatment is one calling for the
skill Of the physician. Domestic rem
edies are useless, even harmful, since
The application Of them causes danger
Gus delay and postpones the institution
Of scientific measures Of relief
For the protection of others it is vi
tally important that the sufferer from
granular lids should have his own toll 1

wash basin-which must on no account

handkerchiefs used by him should not

always be thoroughly boiled for ten or

other members Of the family can be |

Mirth at Meals.

A doctor says: Don't allow a meal
to pass without a joke between each
mouthful.' This will enhance the value
to a great degree. Dinner will move
along something like this. Mouthfui Of
soup. Screams of mirth, flakes Of
laughter, and breadcrumbs pervading
the air. MouthfuI of roast duck re-
minds domestic humorist of something
do you know why a duck goes into
the water" Long silence and more
extensive eating. Domestic humorist
answers it himself as follows: For
divers reasons" More bread, vegeta-
bles, and general good feeling. why
does he came out?" No answer and
no sound but that of an old joke under
the table cracking it's kunckles. For
sunday purposes explains the ready
and brainy man, looking casually at a
memorandum on his cuff More din
ner, and then, Why does he 60 in
again?''
Nothing can be heard but the low
mutter of a thinker, perhaps, as he
grapples with the great problem. ITO
liquidate his bill" Yells of laughter,
screams of delight, and astonishing
feats of digestion promoted by nlirth.
And why does he again come out?"
More thought and mastication, then
the castle jester says: ITO make a
little run on the bank and amid a
general shower Of vest buttons and
mirth the genial, all-round tonic HUI
morist and joy-pronoter goes on.

Conducted by Helene vaIeau.

the same time there are other things
than shoulder blades to be remembered.
That is the poist of the body must
be perfectly held to do this; one must
stand erect, with shoulders back and
head up. Otherwise you will do your
self more harm than good.
Another most important matter is
that the breathing should always be
deep, inhaling through the nose, and
exhaling from the mouth. This is not
only necessary for the lungs, but also
that the poise of the body shall be cor
rect. Without good breathing the last
is impossible.
OF course, corsets are not to be worn
during the work, and it is well to have
window open so that there may be
plenty of fresh air. Should one grow
dizzy during the exercises, rest a few
minutes and begin over again, or
change the motion The latter is some-
unleg al that 1g necessary.
Some head movements may be made
TO connect directly with the back and
shouIder=biRdes- Put the chin down
until il reaches the chest and then tfF-
vie the head all the way round. keep
ing il so bent that one feels the pull
On tlae cords at the BACK To vary and
TO rest the muscles this exercise may
be done first always nodding down,
then alternating at each side, finally
ending with the circle.
Do these movements for six weeks
and you will see that not only is super
fluous flesh leaving but the figure is
improving generally. The chest will
deepen and broaden, the carriage will
be better. Do not try to work more
than five minutes at first, if it is too
firing, but remember that a little IA
tigue hurts no one. Exercise your
common sense and don't overdo.

When stoutness Comes On.

How TO reduce flesh on the back and
shoulders is a question mnay women
SIX. and fl can be done. There is no
possible doubt about that, but few
women accomplish ii, for the reason
that the work is hard and achievement
slow. 1t is entirely a matter Of eXer-
cising-not mere swinging of the
arms and head, but good, hard pull
ing on the cords and muscles situated
in this part of the body. ii is through
the effort that individuals are called
upon to make that the change comes
for pulling works off superfluous
flesh and strengthens muscles so they
stay in place instead of being flabby.
Any woman who is not willing to
work to the point of fatigue for this
might better save herself beginning.
To the others l say persist, and great

You must begin, probably. by exer-
Using only ten minutes at a time night
and morning. but as you become ac-
customed to the work the time may be
increased gradually to half an hour. If

or dumbbells, so much the better. but
they are not absolutely necessary.

use directly the shoulder-blade muscles.
You can get a variation OF this
movement by beginning with the right

hand down by the leg, raising one as
the other is lowered. AS you grow ac-

There are few stables SO con-

In larger quantities than at present.
Many of our stables are dark holes.
and that means also that they are
dirty. The dark stable that is clean
is an exception. First give light, and
then it will be easier to get the
cleanliness. Some of these dark
stables are so filthy that person
cannot stay in them for five min
utes without having the clothes be-
come so scented that It will take
