EVE TROUBLES
Caused by Improper Food.

Most people would never think or
connecting eye disease with the FOOD
they eat. But when We remember
that every part of the body-every or
gan-is nourished by the blood and
the blood Is made OF the food we eat,
II seems reasonable to trace even eye
troubles to food.
A N. Y. man had an interesting er-
perience at one Of the great hospitals
in that city that may benefit persons
who have chronic eye trouble. He
writes:

The Hellenic Epicures.

Enormous feasts were spread at the
Persian and other Asiatic courts, and
the great Grecian conqueror Of those
regions was once or twice in his daz.
cling career more lavish than even the
successor Of Caesar. But 1t was not a
regular habit with him, nor was reck-
less prodigality ever vice Of his ma.
ton. OF course there were exceptions,
and that societies devoted to luxurious
living existed in Athens we know from
the works Of Archestratus and Athe-
naeus, who wrote long poems to the
glory of cookery. The Hellenic cpl.
cures were ingenious and often fan
tastic in their ideas, but were not, as
q rule, guilty Of gross extravaganza.
They were fond Of such conceits as
having a whole pig served. one side
roasted and the other boiled and stuff.
ed with great variety Of delicacies.
although the animal had never been
cut or separated In any way. Their
cooks were also skillful In preparing
vegetables to taste like meat.

THE PEERAGE.
Curious Points About the Nobility q
Great Britain.

Curious Points About the Nobility OF
Great Britain.
1t will doubtless be news to the ma.
jority Of people that it is within the
power Of the British parliament to de
prive peer of his peerage. This would
only be done. however, on grounds Of
public policy, and such proceeding
is naturally of a very exceptional char.
acter. AS matter of fact, there IL
only one instance to be found on rec
ord Of a deprivation Of this kind. In
the reign Of Edward Nv. George Ne
vile, duke of Bedford, was stripped
of his title and dignity on the grounds
of poverty, and he died a commoner In
1883. The existing dukedom of Bed
ford was not created until more than q
couple of centuries later.
The many people who of late years
have brought forward claims to titles
generally regarded as extinct and the
lands which go with them may take
courage from the fact that peerages
die hard. In the Hastings case, for III
stance, the peerage was claimed and
the title thereto established in 1S41 aft
er remaining unclaimed $50 years,
while in 1889 the Camoys title was
successfully claimed after the peerage
had been in allegiance for 400 years.
There are at the present day five de
grees Of peerage- namely, duke, mar
quis, earl, viscount and baron-al-
though for nearly 300 years from the
time Of the Conqueror to the reign Of
Edward III. there were only two, earl
and baron. The latter degree is the
most ancient, dating from the con-
quest, while it is singular fact that
no new degree Of peerage has been In
troduced since the reign Of Henry VI,
who created the title Of viscount in
144O.
Regarding the marriage Of peers
there are one or two points which may
be interesting. When a peer marries q
commoner, the latter becomes peer.
ess and fully entitled to the privileges
of peerage other than the right to sill
In parliament. Furthermore, she re.
mains noble, Notwithstanding the death
Of her husband. If, however, during
her widowhood she marries common
er then she ceases to be peeress. Or
the other hand, a peeress in her OWE
right who is married to a commonel
still remains a peeress, but does moi
impart her nobility to her husband. a
well known example Of this law, Of
course, was furnished by the marriage
Of Baroness Burdett- Coutts to William
Ashmead Bartlett, who simply adopted
the name of Mr.. Burdett- Coutts.
Much has been written at one time
or another concerning the rights, duties
and privileges Of peerage. Here arr
one q two points, however, which an
not common knowledge. An English
peer has the right to a summons II

sit In the house until he is twenty-o ont
years Of age. Neither can peer do 81
