Your eyes are the most important
organs you have.
They are the most used.
When you sit down your heart
slows up.
Your stomach gets some rest be-
tween meals
Your liver works in a quiet way. 1t
is not crowded to it's limit all the
time.
But whenever your eyes arc open
they are working at top speed.
They are working hard all the
time. You require great deal
from them.
Your grandparents did not use
their eyes as much as you do. You
read more in a day than people did
in a month twenty years ago.
You take a daily newspaper, week
ly and monthly periodicals, and
read them all. Your grandparents
had few or none of these.
School life now puts an excessive
demand on the children's eyes.
They are taught more things. They
have more to read. Their whole
school life demands increased eye
use.
Such excessive demands on the
eyes have directly developed many
defects. Have indirectly caused
many ills.
And however much you may desire
to slacken the pace you must use
your eyes more and more in order
to keep up in the race.
Yet you, or no other person, ever
had such perfect eyes that they
would stand constant use by arti
fetal light without developing some
defect. Some defect that needs cor
rection. Some defect that may
later lead to serious disorders.
Eye troubles do not always exhibit
themselves in local troubles. The
nervous connections OF the eyes are
complicated and peculiar.
Headaches develop from defective
eyes. Probably half of all head
aches may be traced to this source

and trace the cause OF such trou,

While in the hospitals of the ole
country, especially in Germany,
was constantly reminded of the in
creasing use of glasses. 1t seemed
like every man. woman and child
in Germany wore glasses. The Ger
man printed type is SO trying on the
eyes that this is necessary.
People in this country are coming
more and more to the wearing Of
glasses. And yet probably no more
than half the people who reall,
need glasses wear them now.
Records show, however, that oper
atoms for cataract OF the eye are
decreasing. Wearing glasses ha.
taken the strain from the eyes anC

efforts ne could not respond to his COM
panions gay spirits although he tried to
smile when she looked at him. She laughed
at the by-play of the already married cou-
pie in the piece She cried at the lovers
parting, and she waved her handkerchief
madly at the happy ending. 1t was per-
fecty lovely, she declared, although she
was inwardly bitterly disappointed that
Mcbride had brought no news from the
dinner.
Mcbride had been consulting his watch
very often toward the end. They were
among the last to leave the theater, and
when they were near the door, he said he
had left his opera glasses on the seat. He
begged her TO wait a moment while he
recovered them. He seemed to be a long
time finding out that they We're In his
pocket all the time, and the attendants
were beginning to turn out the lights.

to the kitchen to ask for more. But his
mother had gone upstairs for something
and the cook was busy In the pantry
PIGGY stood cycling the big pickles on the
table. Then a very wicked voice whispered
into his ear: Take a big pickle and run
to the barn and eat it all up" So PIGGY
forgot his mammals warning concerning
pickle-eating and reached up and got the
very largest pickle in the dish. And away
he ran with 1t hidden under his jacket.
When he was safely hidden in the loft OF
the barn-lying snugly in the hay-he
began to devour the big pickle, Then after
the pickle had been eaten Piggy lay quite
still in the hay, feeling bit bad in his
tummy. But he hoped the i'll feeling would
pass off soon, so he lay resting in the
barn loft
And after he had been there some time
he heard quick steps coming up the ladder
to the very place where he lay. He raised
his head TO see who might be coming after
him AS he did so he felt very, very sick
in his stomach. oh how I'll ! is" said
PIGGY, holding his hand over his mouth.
lie knew he must be very, very pale like
all sick people are.
AS he sat resting on his elbow there
came over the opening a funny form.

at PIGGY. PIGGY stared back, for never
had he seen so strange a creature. It
was being at least ten feet tan and
shaped exactly ike a pickle. When Puggy
noticed the likeness to a pickle the qualms
in his stomach became worse. He was so
sick that he feared he might faint. "Oh.
go away" cried PIGGY shutting his eyes.
Go away, MT Pickle. 1t makes me ill 10
look at you"
"Ha ha," laughed the great plvklelike
creature. Il always make children i'll
children who disobey their parents and eat
me. So you ate me awhile ago-when
mamma was not looking, Ell? That's the
way all naughty boys do. Well, II you
dsobey you must suffer pain"

Il ate a small pickle-one about as big
as your nose"
The pickle man took hold Of his nose and
pulled 1t out until IL extended half across

Ardmore gang as badly mixed as the vic
tim and the murderer, is seems"
That is about as close as private de-
tectives usually come to it," remarked the
lawyer, feeling rather silly at the recollec-
ton of his examination Of Mrs. Stewart
at the cafe.
Hartley again urged Mcbride to sit down.
81 can't; 1 am at the theater round the
corner with a friend" Mcbride explained.
"But I should like to speak word to Mr..
Maxwell before l 60"
The two men went into the hall together,
and when Maxwell returned to the room,
he looked decidedly pleased about some
thing.
II am ahead OF all you fellows in one
thing, l know" said Hartley Fill up your
glasses and I'll give you a toast We will
all drink to Miss Ohlstrom. stand up now,
and every glass goes over the shoulder
empty"
"Tll not only drink to that; but I'll have
a guess at what it means, and I'll promise
to furnish the house for wedding pres
ent. Am / right?" laughed Douglas.
Il should like to make few remarks"
said Groscup, after they had done the
honors to that toast, stil standing. Il have
had occasion 10 speak to both my clients
here about the evil results that sometimes
arise from after-dinner episodes. But this
one seems to have been a happy exception
Here We have two young men considerably
advanced in their business prospects"
And nice fat fee earned by the law

And doctor getting $50 for stealing a
cab" retorted the lawyer, bowling
And two private detectives working a
great snap for a month. But that's my
affair" put in Hartley
Now gentlemen continued the lawyer,
filling up his glass and motioning the
others TO do likewise, Il want this little
after-dinner joke to have a still more happy
outcome"
We've had that toast" interrupted
Hartley.
Il wish, gentlemen" continued the law
yer, ignoring the remark that one of the
results of this little affair may be that we
shall see Mr.. Hartley and Mr.. Douglas
bury the Ratchet, and be the best Of friends
in future"
Douglas set down his glass and extended
his hand to Hartley, who after moment
hesitation, grasped it warmly Hartley

Then they all sang He's a jolly good

nounced that he wished to say a word for
the police.
They never had n chance in this case,
he remarked. They didn't know what
they We're looking for, let alone where &c
look for it. Let us drink to their better
success In more important cases"
few minutes before eleven, Maxwell
who was evidently watching the time ner,
yously, begged 10 be excused. He had an
engagement which he must keep. He hoped
to see them all there as mis- guests the fol,
lowing Saturday night
"Goodby and good luck" they shouted
in chorus, as he went out. Don't get

writing appeared, his WORK in legal sub
jects having taken up mis- sole attention.
This work was entitled, IAN Addition to
the Parasites of the Human Ear" and is
to be found in the Transactions of tho
American Microscopical society of 1901.
This is but purtial photography Of Dr..
Pounds works in botany, but it goes to
show how extensive his Investigations in
botany have been.
1t was when Roscoe Pound had finished
the most advanced courses of study Of
fered at the university that real struggle
took place within him. 1t was that great
struggle between the influences which
should determine what would be his great
work in life Although it might seem
from the foregoing tracing of the boy S
l!fe that the ather-influence had not been
working this was not really the case. AL
though the boy had been almost solely I'M
der the direction and instruction of his
mother before entering the university,
nevertheless that influence Of father on
son had been working, and when the
young man left the university at the age
of responsibility which goes with doc
tors degree, he felt that longing for the
life of the active man. He longed to be
with men. The father was that firm kind

Although DIR. Pound had done consider
able writing along botanical lines before
1893, yet in that year his first important
article appeared. This was "Symbiosis and
Mutualism," which appeared in the Amer
lean Naturalist. The following year came
his Revision of the Mucoraceae, With
Especial Reference to Species Reported
from North America" In 1895 he wrote
on THE Synchytria, Mucoraceae, and En-
tomophthoraceae of Nebraska This APP

During the next four years he and DIR.
Clements produced four important studies.

North American Hyphomycetes," was pub

1899, "A Method of Determining the Abund-

which appeared in the American Naturalist
in 1895 and 1896. This he translated for
the Journal de Botanique of Paris as LES

PIGGY and the Pickle
THE END.

"Ah, my nose is a fine pickle" he cried,
shaking himself with merriment Am not
a jolly fellow to be so sour?"
PIGGY was getting sicker and sicker.
The very sight Of the big fellow made him
feel like fainting. "Oh, go away" moaned
PIGGY. "And please call my mamma"
Then he began to cry bitterly.
Have bite SOM" asked the pickle
sticking the end Of his long nose under
Puggy's short nose. IT'S as sour a pickle
as you can find anywhere, And-my little
chap-I have ordered a barrel Of pickles
just like my nose for you. You shall have
them for morning, noon and night. All,
you'l get to resembling a pickle yourself.
l was once a little boy, but l ate so many
sour and indigestible pickles that l grew
into one. All, I'm sour fellow. And
there is enough indigestion in my body u

go away-go away" screamed PIGGY.
Then he got up and started, 1t was quite
dark in the loft, and he was alone, and
very. very III. Evidently ne had fallen
asleep and had been suffering a bad
dream Just then his mothers voice
called him: PIGGY, dear, where are you?
Come in this minute. Supper is ready"
PIGGY dragged himself from the loft and
went TO the house, but no supper could no
eat. And he was so sorry that he had
disobeyed his mother that he began to cry,
and when she asked him what the matter
was he told her the whole story-his hay-
ing eaten the big pickle and about the ter
rble dream in the hay loft. And his
mamma said: Poor, naughty boy. You
will find that you must always suffer for
YOUR disobedience"
And Puggy repentant, said, "Tu never
disobey again, mamma. And I'll never,
never eat another pickle"

Hardy Maxwell is correct" said the

hands with the stupefied Mcbride, who
seemed actually to shrink from him.
