How the short.iahtsd Sac.

81
The shortsighted and those in pos
session of perfect sight look upon the
world from totally different aspects
The hitter see spaces between the
clearly defined leaves OF a tree and
the light shining through those spaces.
the former gaze at soft, blurred
mass with no spaces.
A shortsighted man gets quite used
to addressing people who are appar-
emily without eyes and nose. and out
of doors faces at quite short dis
lance melt into the atmosphere and
become simply cloud. Looking down
a brilliantly lighted street you would
probably see a long procession OF
lamps, twenty yards distant, and each
having a distinct flame. but your
shortsighted friend would see con-
glomeration of shining circles shut
ting out the rest of the street. But.
by way of compensation. color to the
shortsighted becomes much softer
and more beautiful. A coarse red
face appears to wear only becoming
blush and the sky seems nearer to
short than to the normal sighted per-
son.-London Answers.
