Yellow Writing Paper Easy on Eyes

Oculsts have often called attention
to the fact that the eyes are easily
fatigued by the reflection from white
paper, especially when the surface is
under a strong light Since green is
known to be the color most restful to
the eyes, it is a common practice to
use wall papers and draperies of that
color in libraries and private studies.
For writing paper, however. green is
an unsatisfactory color. 1t imparts a
reddish appearance to the writing, and
makes it hard to read.
Yellow writing paper is not open to
the same objection. In strong day
light it is softer than pure white pa
per, and in artificial light is not too
dark. Black letters on a yellowish
background show clear and distinct
Many mathematicians use yellow pa
per in figuring long and difficult cal
culations, Z and many writer's have
adopted it for manuscripts. 1t has the
additional merit of cheapness.--

He stepped forward into the open
doorway, and blew three shrill blasts
on a silver whistle. The echo had
scarcely died away, when, out from

mile distant, horse shot forth, rae

The boy, grinning happily, swung
his horse around and, jabbing his sides
with bare heels, rode madly away di.
rectly south across the vacant land.
