Spectacles DemoraIizinn

A certain Somerset vicar made him
self notorious by the vigor with which
in the seventeenth century he inveigh-
ed against the use Of the newly invent
ed optic glasses, since they perverted
vision and made all things appear in
an unnatural and therefore false
light. Microscopes and telescopes. with
their array Of lenses, he declared to be
impostors, since a man could not see
so we'll with two pairs of spectacles al
with one. Some asserted it to be sinful
to assist the eyes. which were adapted
by Providence to the capacity of the
individual, whether good, bad or indif-
ferent. ut was argued that society at
large would become demoralized by the
use of spectacles. They would give
one man an unfair advantage over his
fellow and every man an unfair adj
vantage over every woman, who could
not be expected on aesthetic and intel
lectual grounds to adopt the practice"

Hank White Gave the Tip.

Hank White, the minstrel. lived in
Reading VT, for many years. He was
very fond of horse races, and rarely
missed any of the meetings in Windsor
Or Rutland county. Once be attended
a breeders meeting at Rutland. The
breeders meetings were famous and
attracted people from New York, Mas
sachusetts, New Hampshire and all
over Vermont. On this particular day
Hank was seated in the grand stand,
one Of 5000 people.
"Hod'' Fish Ira, we'll known char
acter, was driving his horse Belvidere,
a very large bay horse, with not too
much speed, but the owner had an idea
that he was wonder. It was in the
free for all race. All the horses except
Belvidere had passed the grand stand
almost neck and neck on the first half.
It was beautiful race. Trailing be-
hind about twenty rods came Belvi-
dere, the driver urging him on to bet
ter efforts, and when he was in front
Of the grand stand Hank stood up and
yelled at the top Of his voice: '"Take the
first turn to the left, Hold; all the 9TH
ers have gone that way" Hod drove
Belvidere to the barn.-Boston Herald.

A Lively Paper Cutter.

Here Is little story which the Eng
llsh papers tell and any one is at lib
erty to believe if he will. No affidavits
go with it. When Lord Dufferin was
V1ceroy of India the maharajah Of In
dor paid him a visit and asked as a
memento an ivory paper cutter belong
ing to Lord Duherin. He consented,
the Indian left, and the viceroy never
saw him until some months later when
the maharajah introduced a fine young
elephant into the room. A pile of news
papers lay at Lord Dufferin's side. The
animal went up to them, cut them
neatly with his tusks, which had been
purposely sharpened, and laid them in
a neat heap on the floor, ready for Pc
rusal.

Great BFitain's Rainfall.

Rainfall is a condition which has
much to do with our health. A wet dis
trict with good deal of subsoil water.
making houses damp, is a locality in
which rheumatism and consumption
are likely to prevail. Over, England
and Wales the average yearly rainfall
is about thirty-four inches, in Scotland
it reaches forty-six inches and in Ire
land about thirty eight inches. Posi-
bly, the wettest parts of Britain are in
Cumberland, where the rainfall may
attain $50 inches per year. One inch of
rain on one acre Of ground means
hundred tons Of water.-London Graph
