READING IN BED.
Not Injurious to the Eyes if Few
Simple Rules Are Observed.

To those addicted to the practice
reading in bed the remarks OF
Dr. Carl Seller will be OF interest
He states that there is no valid rea-
son to be urged against using the
eyes in proper manner in recum-
b,nt position such use is the least
tiresOme and can be persisted in for
longer periods without damage than
any other position.
We all know that grave damage is
often done by reading in recum-
bent posture but therein possibly
some occulists are at fault. Had it
been the universal practice during
the last twenty or thirty years to
give careful directions how to read
lying down instead of saying to one
and all, You must not read lying
down" there would be less near sight
than now exist.
Three easily avoided errors cause
all the harm possible from reading
lying down, the first leading to the
C'hcr two. They are insufficient or
wrongly directed light. short reading
distances, and tipping the book ont
of place at right angles to the line
Of vision.
II. however, every one reading ~
ing down will SO arrange his lounge
or bed that the light comes over the
head without striking the eyes. and
falls well upon the page; il he will
hold his book at long reading dis
lance and take care that the line of
letters shall be at right angles TO the
line of vision he can be sure of doing
his eyes no more harm than if he
were sitting up.
More than this, there is much po-
sitively in favor OF reading lying
down. DR.. Seller concludes: The
recumbent posture allows more rest
of the bodily structures than the
sitting posture. and there is greater
possibility of resting and repair in
that position. London Globe.

Ants Rout Family

Caldwell, Tex, Sept. 3.-One Of
the oldest battles on record was
waged here Yesterday between n
million or SO ants one one side and
over a hundred chickens on the
other.
Eleven hosts OF big red ants be-
gan to swarm yesterday on the
place OF Henry r. Page, near here
and finally the rival swarms en-
gagged In what appeared to be a
life and death struggle. They
settled on the Page house and en-
tered II by every aperture, cover
ing the floor and furniture. The
family ran out at the doors and
Page turned his chickens into the
house in hopes they would be able
to make way with the ants.
Another strange battle then be-
gan. The chickens gobbled the
insects up by scores and hundreds
but there were seemingly Just as
many left, and they crawied over
and covered the chickens until
many OF them fled. Dead insects
we're throws away today In
sh~ovelsful.

Great Political Event

Governors day at the Missouri
state fair, October 2, is to be the
most interesting climax Of
all polit cal gatherings In the his
tory OF Missouri. Three OF Mis-
souri's most prominent political
leaders are TO adrdess the people
from the same platform on the
political issues Of the day.
Gov. Herbert s. Hadley will
speak on the progress OF Missouri
during the past decade and tell OF
the states growth In agricultural
development. the work accomplish
ed by the "good roads, crusade
and the achievements OF other bet
terments in the great common
wealth.
Hon. Elliott w. Major and Hon.
John C.. Mckinley, candidates for
governor on opposing tickets, will
deliver the best speeches OF the
campaign In behalf OF their can
didacies. Each Is an eloquent
speaker and their addresses on
Governors day will undoubtedly
be masterpieces OF oratory and
argument.
Arrangements are being made by
the directors OF the state fair for
ample accommodations by the
railroads to handle the crowds
that will visit Sedalia Wednesday,
Oct, 2, to hear Governor Hadley
and Messrs. Major and Mckinley.
Undoubtedly the appearance OF the
three great men OF Missouri! on
the same day will furnish the
browning epoch OF the political
campaigning In Missouri this fall.
This will be the only opportunity
for Missourians to see and hear
Governor Hadley, Attorney Gen
erai Major and Hon. John C. Nc
Kinley on the same day and hear
them speak from the same plat
form during the present campaign
At the same time the people O.
