II couldn't 60 to sleep. l would lie
there looking at the ceiling. But
gradually I became used to it, and
sleep as we'll as any man-with my
eyes open.
For Is years it didn't bother me.
I did my work as usual, and was
healthy and slept at least eight hours
every night. Two years ago began
to have headaches, which extended
from the top of my forehead to nv
eyelids.
II thought had rheumatism of the
eyes, and when I couldn't stand the
pain any longer decided to come to
the hospital"
The physicians who are studying
Anderson's unusual ailment saw that It
is not rheumatism. Their explanation
is that the neglected irritation has
caused the eyelids to grow fast to the
eyeballs.
The junction is now so intimate
that If an effort to cut the eyelids free
were to be made, the surgical knife
would at the same time pucture the
cornea or delicate outer covering of
the eye and cause hopeless blind
ness.
Despite this opinion of the doctors.
Anderson still believes that rheuma-
tism is the cause of his trouble and
that he can be cured.
If his contention is right, the case of
Anderson presents a striking parallel
to that of Wilkie Collins, the English
novelist. Collins, afflicted with rhen.
matism of the eyes, lay on his face
shielding his eyes with his arm, and
dictated one OF his greatest novels,
'"The Moonstone''
The disease left Collins after a me-
riod Of eight months, and for the re-.
mainder of his active career as a
writer his eyes were normal

he naid as he rang, Il need you to-

Harlon, as he hurried along the
halls, wondered what his wife wanted
He wasn't the sort of husband whose
presence is frequently demanded.
Then he opened the door of the
boutoir and saw her sitting there
alone by the fire.
"You-you sent for me-"
She turned and looked towards the
voice, then rose up and stood there,
resting her hand on the chairback.
Her gown of velvet hung in great,
golden folds around her, and the fire.
light outlined the splendor of her hair
and throat and form. She was a strik-
ingly beautiful woman-the sort of
woman who wisely chooses to marry a.
man both moral and dense. She stood
there now, measuring him and measur-
ing herself, and then, at last, che
spoke
Il sent for you because I wanted to
know how much courage and how
much greatness of character you
possess"
Har:on, being masculine, naturally
was as completely sure of the DOS
session of every desirable attribute as
he was unaware that his ears stood
out and his legs were bowed.

"you know you can have"
As he spoke he could hear that his
words did not sound quite up to the
occasion, although it must be admitted
that rs general rule none could be
better suited to alleviate any female
Woes, be their cause great or small.
Mrs. Harlon leveled her big, glorious
eyes anon him and smiled.
"Thank you," she said. II have

to do Is to confess the whole to you"
Havlon looked frightened.
"My--my DEAR" he stanmered-and
then his legs trembled so that he had

Mis-. Harlon came towards him and
knelt at his feet, leaning her crossed
wrists upon his knees:
"It's Mr.. Chamberlaine!" she an
nounced without any further prepara-
tion, and then she buried her face in
her hands and began to sob violently.
Harlon recoiled. He was a good
man, but he did read the papers

situation.

Hexamer, president of the National

THE divine right of each man to pur-

who regard or pretend to regard drink

I'VE German-Americans never have
allowed our love of food or drink to
degenerate into intemperance or inter

The strongest plea that can be put for
