BRAVE BOYS RESCUED CHILD
Hard Work Followed Long Swim to
Save Youngster Drifting In
Small Boat.

Two twelve-year-old lads of Far
Rockaway, the other day made a
long swim to save a three-year-old
child from drifting to sea in a row.
boat. They got back to shore some
what done up but none the worse for
their exertion, and they received a
$40 reward from the infants father.
The child was Charles Sterling, Jr.,
Of Bayside place, Rockaway Beach,
New York. When the tide vas out
the youngster climbed into one of
three or four rowboats that had been
hauled up on shore. The rising tide
swept the boat away. Mrs. Ster-
ling had missed the boy and she
reached the shore when the boat was
some 900 yards out. Her cries sum-
moned other m who ran into
the water up to their knees and
screamed. David Kuh and Milton
Baillie, two little lads who were
swimming nearby, heard the screams
and saw the women pointing to the
drifting boat. They struck out for
the boat and reached it almost ex-
hausted. When they climbed in they
found that there we're no oars. After
resting for a few minutes the boys
slipped overheard, and one of them
towea the boat by the painter while
the other pushed from astern. They
made for a dock, where they tied up
the boat and then took the child
to his mother.

BEST KIND OF VACATION.

To be productive of lasting bene-
ft, a vacation should mark a COM
plete change in one environment and
habits. Country people find this in
going to the city, while city folks
flee to the country; those living on
the salt water 90 to the mountains,
and vice versa. For this reason
camp life has become SO deservedly
popular. The dweller in a modern
city needs to get away for a while
from telephones, elevators, subways,
automobiles and all the multitude of
things that make life easy and con-
venient, and get back to primitive
simplicity. Tent life in the woods
or beside lake or stream constitutes
the biggest possible contrast with
the artificial life of the city, and a
vacation thus spent means not only
physical recuperation, but a tonic to
the spirit, a renewal of kinship with
natures elemental forces.-Leslie's
Weekly.

MANY ARE BLIND IN ONE EYE
Person May Suffer This Physical De-
feet and Go Through Life With
ous Knowing Il.

An English author, Mrs. Francis
Vivian Campbell, has brought a
damage suit embodying some novel
features against a Newcastle steam
ship line. She complains, among 9TH
er things, that while on a voyage in
the Mediterranean she contracted
ptomaine poisoning from the bad
food on the Carib Prince, and that,
as a result, she had lost the sight of
her left eve. Medical testimony was
to the effect that the loss of sight
was due to blood poisoning and that
it was not usual for ptomaine poi
soning to affect only n eye. 1t
would appear that Mrs. Campbell
was not Immediately aware of this
loss of sight. One OF the physicians
who gave testimony in the case said
this was not remarkable, that scores
Of people have been blind in one eye
since birth and yet had not realized
it. He gave as an explanation that
with perfect eyesight one has what
is known as a field Of vision. A per-
son with one defective eve e all
right but on one side a piece of the
view is missing. This n may new
er notice because he has never seen
differently, He said that while the
majority of people may find out for
themselves that they have a defec-
tive eye, or one from which sight has
gone, there is a large minority that
only make this discovery after
many years, and some who go to
their graves without ever making it.
