TRICKS OF LIGHT.
Why People Sometimes Feel Dull or
Uncomfortable at Table.


How few people realize that they
are actually suffering from snow blind
ness In miniature every time they
read or work over white surface on
which a brilliant light shines directly.
Half tone paper, for instance. which is
the common medium for the majority
of books we read, will throw a blind
ing glare into the eye Of the reader If
the light strikes 1t at the wrong angle,
and it forms an excellent test for the
selection Of proper lighting for a room
and for the placing of the lighting fx-
lures, for lighting diffusion should bs
such as to allow comfortable reading
from half tone paper in any position.
a dome hanging above a dining table
on which is white cloth causes the
light to reflect into the eyes of those
around the table at an angle that pro
duces muscular strain. This has q
peculiar effect upon the senses. ana
drowsineSs and mental inertia are apt
to result. People are apt to complain
OF a feeling OF dizziness at table or
that they have indigestion when 1t Is,
In reality. the effect Of the light.

Of the males, all having been entered
together and the initials of the former
used in many cases. Commissioner
Martin Budgren, VINO tried to figure
out the returns, was able TO give little

Some Of the judges had counted the

women registered in the first pre-.

An average in the four precincts in
which the female registration is OBJ
tainable, multiplied by the number OF
precincts in the city gives about $50

as the registration in the upper pre-

The Washington Times has been
leading the attack against the Geor-

for by the fact that this is not only
a violently Republican newspaper,
but is owned by Munsey, who was a
liberal contributor to the Bull Moose

ic newspapers, notably the Washing

and editorials commenting the
choice CT Mr. Harris, and calling at
tention to the fact that he got the APP

reasons, but because or his solid
