"EyiI Eye" Based on Fact.

Most people have heard of the Evil
Eye" and now We are informed by
Charles L. Smith. a noted New York
refractionist, that the superstition
arose because everyone, without know
ing il. has one eye that is different in
power and activity from the other. He
designates it the dominant eye," and
according to whether it is the left
or the right children will grow up left
handed or right-handed. II is sheer
cruelty. and may entail lifelong mis-
cry, % force a child to become am
bi6extrous. Such a course may result
in Erecking the nervous system, and
can only be cured by a reversal of the
process so that the dominant eye"
may regain natural and ~undisputed
sway. Men who are ambidextrous had
better keep a strict guard over their
actions lest they should be credited
with the "evil eye"

"A lovely little press item floating
up from Chatham Courthouse, Va,

said that a juror sneaked out of the

were asleep, and went and MIXED his

the others walked up. but somebody

could hear that he was perfectly sober.
He did not strike a match. but threw
himself down upon the bench In the

She did not dare to speak, but II was
nearly daylight before she fell asleep.
and then she dreamt that b saw
her husband and Don Massino walk
ing together on the narrow. dangerous
path on the cliffs between the h2rbor
and the citadel e the town
Suddenly she saw one of b men
stumble and fall and heard the thud
OF the body as II struck on the rocks
below.
She woke up wet with cold perspira-
ton: II was broad daylight, but what
was that noise outside. what did all the
shouting mean?
1t came from the street. near b har-
Dor. Throwing on only a skirt b ran
out, down to the water. and there was
a crowd standing around Don Massino's
lifeless body. Two fishermen had found
him on the rocks a hundred feet be-
low the path she had seen in her dream.
She did not know o she got home
She ran into the store, took hold OF
Varicca's arm. who pretended to be
fast asleep.
What is It? Why do you wake me
up?" was all he said. but he did not
dare look at her.
Then she knew II all and with a cry
Of despair she fell to the floor.
At noon Varicca was arrested by the
chief OF police and two carbinierf- He
had left Don Checco's tavern with Don
Massino a little after 10 the night be-
fore, and no one had seen either OF
them since. Varicco swore that he had
come home a few minutes after 10 and
had slept soundly all night.
Lurita threw herself down before the
chief of police. who had known her
since she was a little tot on her moth
er's arm. His eyes filed with tears at
the sight OF the misery expressed In her
face.
Il must do my duty, Lurita- Let US
hope that Varicca is innocent, as he
says, but he must come with me-"
She looked into the fac OF her
band. He was smoking a cigaret which
he had Just rolled.
DO not be afraid. in two ours !

the most unconcerned manner.

Object Lesson.

A ramshackle building In Winston
Salem vas recently burned at the re-
quest of the local ti-Tuberculosis
league, because it was said to be alive
With tuberculosis germs and could not
be properly fumigated.
For days before the building was
burned huge placards announcing the
hour OF destruction and giving rea-
sons for the burning were hung about
IN prominent places. Among other
things the placards said: Within the
past Is months two men who sold
fruit, etc, here have died of tuber-
culosis but unconsciously left millions
OF tuberculosis germs by careless
splitting. The building Is so open that
ii cannot be effectively fumigated.
The only practical means Of disinfect-

At the appointed hour. while mil

ing burned, 5000 pamphlets telling
bow 10 prevent consumption, were dis

But Lurita asked advice from no
one She married Varicca and said
that h did not e why 1t concerned
any n but herself. Varicca, who had
served his term In a Brsaglieri regi-
ment, was, with his discharge papers,
given a small government store, where
he sold stamps, salt, matches, tobacco
and other articles monopolized by the
government
In the beginning the couple were as
happy as turtle doves, and the arrival
of three wonderfully beautiful "'bam-
binos' tied them still closer together;
but after five years the young wife
she was only IA when b married
could not help noticing that her hus-
bands love had begun to disappear.
Lazy he had always been, and the
little store gave a sufficient income
only because Lurita was behind the
counter from sunrise until long after
dark. But lately Varicca fell into the
habit of hanging around the "osteria,"
neal the harbor. where he took to
gambling and drinking with the pro-
fessional loafers of the town, who nat
tered him by affecting hig hrespect for
"the government officer"
When he came home he was quarrel
some and often struck both wife and
children. but no complaint was ever
heard from the proud Lurita-
Just then she Unexpectedly inherited
q little money, a 1000 lire, from a sis
ter. and though she had never had q.
secret from her husband before. she
hid the money under an image of the
Holy Virgin, to be touched only as a
last resort.
1t was in the middle Of July. and a

from the early morning. squandering
his money on the gang who laughed

anlined Varicca's cash drawer, which
was found to contain Is lire over the

Lurita was behind the counter every
day taking care of the business, as
usual, but h was only a shadow OF
her old self.
From the moment when Varicca
swore hat he had come home a little
after 10. she knew that she was the
wife CT a murderer. She had told it al.
to her confessor, and told him that even
should 1t cost her her eternal life she
would not contradict her husband be-
fore n court, and the kind pater did
not have the heart to condemn her,
though he advised her TO tell the truth.
n fatal day came. She was taken
to court and testified that her husband
came home a little after 10 and had not
left the house until arrested, but she
was a poor hand at lying and, though
she remained firm, her blushing face
told the truth which her lips refused to
pronounce.
