The incident That Opened John 0al-
toms Eyes to His Affection.
John Dalton. the famous English
chemist and natural philosopher. with
out whose discovery Of the laws Of
chemical combination chemistry as an
exact science could hardly exist. was
wholly color blind. His knowledge Of
the fact came about by a happening OF
the sort which We call chance On his
mothers birthday. when be was a man
Of twenty-six. he took her a pair Of
stockings which be had seen in a shop
window. labeled silk. the newest
fashion"
''Thee has bought me pair Of grand
hose. john" said the mother. but
what made thee fancy such a bright
color? Why. can never show myself
at meeting in them"
John was much disconnected. but he
told her that he considered the stock
ings to be of very proper go to
meeting color. as they were a dark
blush drab
"Why. they're "A red as a cherry.
John" was her a<tonished reply.
Neither he nor his brother Jonathan
could see anything but drab In the
stockings. and they rested In the belief
that the good wife's eyes were out Of
order until she. having consulted vari-
Gus neighbors. returned with the YER
dict, "Varra fine stun. but uncommon
scarcity"
Tho consequence was that John nal.
ton became the first to direct the at
tention Of the scientific world to the
subject Of color blindness.
