Must Have Overhead Light

DY the laws Of evolution the human eye hai
- become accustomed TO sunlight, or sky
light. coming obliqucly from above, and our
ewes resent light coming from any other
source. Snow blindness, distress from white
sand or water, is the result OF violating this
rule. The upper cyclid is adapted to shade
the eve from strong light from above. The
lower lid cannot perform this Office; so when
q strong light is reflected up into the eyes II
blinds us. Blackening the lower lid will et-
feet a cure. And the eye Is also grown used
TO lights and shadow The effect OF a soft
gray. hazy, or foggy day Is very firing to the
ewes. On such DAYS the light seems to come
from nowhere in particular.
The iris diaphragm Of the eye Is capable OF
adjustment 10 various degrees OF lllumina-
lion. Quick as this membrane IS, 1t Is not
instantaneous; therefore, if we pop out OF
fine darl, into a well lighted room, Il will be
sometime before we can see at all. ms
iris adjusts itself to cope with the brightest
lioht il has to encounter; therefore we iall TO
see beyond the powerful scarchlight5 OF an
automobile. while after the machine has
nassed we can see for long distance.
The ewes have only certain range, weak
cnouqh at best. As all know. there are
plenty Of times when all appears black 10 US,
and vet the horse can see the road and the
cat hunts along the hedge. The trouble IS
that the faint light rays move too slowly to
be registered on the human rctina. The y
raw has proved beyond doubt that there are
liGht ravs which move too fast for human
nTcs to register. This light pcnctratcs
books. wood, paper, and even human flesh.
With the Horoscope to assistcur eyes, We can
..e the bones in our arm without bothcring
10 remove coat or shirt. But a man with y
raw eyes would be sadly handicapped in this
world: for he could see nothing but solid,
such as carths and metals, and would be
unable to see a board fence at all. Beyond
doubt there is light SO bright that the eyes
cannot see it, and 20 us all is darkness be-
vond what our eyes will register

nearer the skin when we wear black.
If we place a red shade on the lamp, only
the red rays will be transmitted, as the rest
will be absorbed by the glass. Instead Of
getting all the energy Of the light, we get
only that Of the red rays. In many dark
finished rooms the wallpaper and tinishlng'
absorb most Of the light; therefore II costs
less to illuminate light finished room than

ascertain whether iron is present in
paying quantities to mine it. Mr..
Frost states that other parties owning
land adjoining his are interested in
the project and will assist him in a
financial way in developing the
property.-Oconto Enterprise.

ACCIDENTAL DEATHS
Interesting Article Taken From Oconto
Enterprise

Last week in Fond du Lac, Mr.. N.
w. Sallade, a prominent business man,
came to his death through accidental
poisoning. He had gone in the early
morning to medicine chest and tax
en- what he supposed was bottle con-
tanning stomach medicine. Instead
of this he took cyanide of potassium a
deadly poison. Mr.. Sallade was an
intimate friend of mine, being at the
head of the firm which made the
furniture for our church. His death
is exceedingly sad and a great loss to
| the cause of church architecture.
But the reason l have asked the
privilege of printing this article is to
call attention to the great evil of care
lessly leaving poisons lying around.
We should at least have all our bottles
labeled or have the poisions in a separ-
ate place. L think it was last year
that the ''Ladies Home Journal" in
vestigated carefully the results for ten
years, of accidental poisoning. 1t
was aboug 100000. Think of it!
About 10000 deaths a year in the
United States as the result of miser-
able carelessness.
1t is very probable that so per cent
OF the homes where this paper goes
will find on Investigation that in their
medicine chests are poisons improper
ly labeled, or else not at all l have
known case of a mother, rising in
the night to give a child soothing
syrup, feeling sure she knew Just
which was the correc+ bottle, and not
taking the time to use a light-gave
the child carbolic acid instead.
l understand that in England every
druggist has, by law, to put death
head in the cork of every bottle con-
tanning poison of any kind. This is
so much superior to a label-for the
label can be easily washed off, while
the cork remains. A gentlemen from
Milwaukee recently gave me one of
them. The head is red-signiying
danger-has two horns which can
easily be felt in the dark, and is insert
ed into the cork by a long screw. They
are sold, two for five cents. This is a
hint for our druggists. l do believe
that this question is SO very important
that every person should at once look
into this matter and be sure that Death
shall not come to them at least, in this
very sad and unnecessary way.
Sincerely yours,
FIR. CAMPBELL.

find it worth a journey across the

The secretary of the Iowa state

for their fair, but this is the first
year that Mr.. Conway has consented
to play at fairs.

The superiG tendent of the machin-
cry department has at this early date
assigned more space than ever before
and those who visited the fair last
year know that the machinery de
partment was a liberal education in
itself. e
The board is making arrangements
for large space for automobiles ant
for better policing of the grounds.
Farmer autoists will find good ac-
commodatiOns.
More attention will be paid than
ever before to keeping the grounds
free of all Objectionable features, and
to make this fair what it ought to
be, the grand round up of Wisconsin s
agricultural interests, and at the
same time place to enjoy week s
holiday that shall be both pleasant
and profitable for the people from
the city and country alike.
More attention is being paid TO
special days, and State day, Milwau-
kee day, Woman's day and Military
day will vie with each other in at
Effectiveness.
Plan this month ahead to attend
and enjoy the fair.
