Speaking before the National Associ-

tuberculosis recently, DR.. Henry Far
mum Stoll of Hartford, Conn, said:
Every city should have one or more
outdoor schools" He recommended
such institutions for all delicate. So
called scrofulous or anaemic children,
and those with tuberculosis of the
bones. who are now in ordinary
schools. Doctor Stoll declared that
twenty to forty per cent. of school
children in large cities are infected
with tuberculosis. BY the use of tu-
berculin. it was ascertained that 70 per
cent. of the children from tuberculous
homes were infected as against only &c
per cent. of those from supposedly
healthy homes. 1t was also found that
80 per cent. of the frail children from
healthy homes had the germs of the
disease, but that only 13 per cent of
the robust children from similar homes
were thus affected.

Surprised Her.

A gentleman who had spent the greater portion of his life in Canada relates an amusing experience which befell him.
 He had been on hunting expedition for several days in the backwoods, roughing it rather severely, and on taking a seat in a railway train re- turning homeward he looked as be grimed and weather beaten a trapper as ever brought his skins into a set tlement.
 He happened to find seat next to a young lady, evidently belonging to Boston, who, after taking stock of him for a few minutes, remarked:
 Don't you find an utterly passion ful sympathy with natures mountains and the dim aisles of the horizon touching forests, my good man?''
 "Oh, yes," replied the apparent back woodsman, "and also I am frequently drawn into an exaltatfon of rapt soul fulness and beatif1c incandescent h. finity of abstract contiguity when my horse stumbles."
 ''Indeed!" said the young lady, much surprised. "I had no idea the lower classes felt like that."-Chicago Rec. ord-Rerald.

Niaht Blindness.

Inability to see by day is matched by the commoner night blindness which most of us have known in friend or relative. This defect, which includes an inability to see even by artificial light, is congenital with some people and never overcome. It is often he
 reditary. It may also be caused, how
 ever, by long exposure to an overbright light, coupled with fatigue. A strange story is told concerning ships crew two centuries ago which were over come by night blindness so extreme that their captain was obliged to force a fight with a Spanish privateer dur ing the day, knowing that by night his men would be helpless. In order tc obviate this difficulty for future occa
 sions he ordered each sailor to keeI one eye bound during the daytime discovering, to his qualification, thai this eye, having rested, was then free of the defect The sailors were very smusing in their efforts to retain the bandage well over the eye that must be ready for night duty, and so s method of modifying this trouble was discovered-London Strand Magazine
