Sightedness. The near-sighted child
sees nothing distinctly at point fur
Their than the end of his arm. In the
school room he is helpless, for he can
not see the blackboard or maps I'M
less seated close to them To the cas-
ual observer, teacher or schoolmate, he
appears dull, inattentive or stupid.
The mental evolution of child suffer.
ing from nearsightedness is instruct
i've indeed. Unable to see what his
lows for his failures, he retires within
himself and seeks recreation in play
or occupation at close range. He be-
comes introspective and perhaps per-
verified in his tastes and self-conscious-
ness becomes one of his mental attri-
butes. Though he may be superior in
his knowledge to his fellows, his men,
tality is often mere precocity. Cor
rect such defect and you open before
him new world. He plays as his
schOolmates, his ambitions are aroused
to do as others do and no more doubts
are cast upon his mental condition.
On the other hand, walk into
school room, glance from row to row
and seat to seat, count the number OF
scholars who, with mouths open, not
from mere establishment but from I'M
perfect nose and throat conditions,
are breathing pure and impure air
through their mouths, rather than
through their noses as the Creator in
tended them to do. Their mental ca
pacity and ability is proportionate, in
many instances. to the size of the gap.
A certain number of those, you will
find upon inquiry, have or have had
running ears, are either deaf now, or
have been more or less so at times,
according to the condition which
causes the deafness. Such conditions
breed stupidity and mental dizziness,
too often depicted on such faces, in va
rious degrees.
Is it not time, then. to become
aroused to the destruction waged by
the conditions, and is it not our duty
as citizens. fathers and mothers and
teachers to organize our forces against
this invading foe? With the knowl-
edge OF these conditions and their
dreadful consequences, care. discipline
and vigilance, we shall conquer.

"The Warming. Bell.

THE Warning Bell" the splendid
attraction which is offered the patrons
of the metropolitan for matinee and
night on Saturday. is written on a pas
toral line, but contains many novel
and startling situations, and extraor-
dinarily thrilling climaxes. The story
Is written around beautiful country
girl, who goes away to boarding
school, and who is led astray by the
inevitable villain, whose game is to
rob the rich father by working on him
through her. The first act shows the
quaint old farm house and introduces
many entertaining country characters.
The second act shows the interior of
the magnificent gambling palace in
New York. where the child and her
mother are held prisoners and from
which they make their thrilling es-
cape. Act third depicts faithful re-
production of the famous Grace church
during an evening service. The play
Is one of intense heart interest, and it
has vein of excellent comedy through
out. Tho different characters are
drawn from life, and the artists who
impersonate them are we'll known and
clever.
