EYES THAT SQUINT.
HarmIess In Babyheod, but . Ssrioss
Matter Later On.

"eNNS' NSSS' >s
The eyes are meant to look both
in the same direction and thus to
help each other to see, as the feet
help each other to walk or run.
When they do not do 80 there is q
squint or a "cast" in one OF both
eyes, or, to use the medical term,
"strabismus." Not only disfgure-
ment, but also impaired vision, re-
suits.
Little babies squint more or less
during the first few months of life.
That is not a serious matter, al
though it often frightens a young
and inexperienced mother. 1t is
generally caused by a slight dis
turbance of the digestion and pass
es when that is corrected. But a
squint that appears later, when the
child is beginning to develop vision
by the constant use of the eye
muscles, must not be neglected. If
it is the unfortunate condition will
probably last through life.
The eyes should work absolutely
in unison, just as two horses har-
messed to a cart ought to pull to-
gethor. When they do not focus
on the same point at the same time
the crooked eye soon abandons the
struggle and leaves the straight eye
to do all the work. That is unfair
to the good eye and fatal to the
other, for an eye that is not used
grows gradually blind from lack Of
exercise. Even if the squint is so
slight that the child makes an un-
conscious effort to force the affect
ed eye to its task he is sure to suffer
the distressing ache of eye strain.
When young child has strabis
mus take him at once to a trust
worthy oculist, in order that he may
have the glasses that his condition
demands. And, when he has been
fitted with glasses that pull the
crooked eye into line with the
straight eye and make it do it's work
properly, see that he wears them
every waking minute, except when
he washes his face.
If the squirting eye has already
got the habit of shirking it may
have to be trained by exercises.
The good eye must be shut at in
tervals, so that the other will have
to do all the work, but the oculist
in charge of the case must decide
the precise character and frequency

Friendship,

A little boy got out Of bed wrong
one morning and was so hateful all
day that his father finally found it
necessary to punish him.
A little while after the ordeal
was over his mother found him out
back of the barn tenderly caressing
and petting an old ram that was
pastured there. Her heart was
touched by this display of kind
heartedness on his part, and she
watched him tenderly for some time
Then, walking over to where he sat
she inquired:
"What makes my little boy so
good to the old sheep?"
He did not stop or look up, but

Tho Flowing of Matala.

1t is perhaps not generally known
that one of the most important
properties of metals employed in
striking coins and medals and
stamping articles of jewelry is that
of flowing under pressure. Standard
silver is remarkable for this prop
erty. The flow takes place when
the metal is subjected to rolling,
stamping or hammering, and the
particles of metal are thus carried
into the sunken parts of the die
without fracturing, and a perfect
impression is produced.

Mate Tea.

Although most of the worlds cof-
fee is grown in South America,
there are some South American
states where it is hardly drunk at
all. In no country is coffee 30
dear as in Argentina, for the sim
pie reason that only foreigners ask
for it. The natives of Argentina
drink mate or Paraguay tea, as it
is sometimes called. Among the
working classes this is drunk as
freely and frequently as beer in
England. And after dinner, in
stead of coffee, many Argentine
housekeepers serve a basin of soup,
which guests from abroad find some
difficulty in swallowing. Attempts
have been made to popularize mate
in Europe, but these have never
proved successful.-London Chron-

EDITOR M'NEIL
GETS FUNNY"

The above caption was at the
head Of an editorial in last Satur-
days Free Press. For once in the
history of our esteemed contempor-
ary its editor chose live subject
for an editorial. Bro. Steninger
tried to be funny and he is still
laughing at his own wit. Needless
to say there are some people in
town who failed to see the joke.
The evolution from a painter to
an editor was more than our bro
ther quill driver could stard and il
it unbalanced his mind people
should have compassion on him.
He is an object of pity rather than
one of criticism and we hope the
good people of Elko will not hold
it against the poor fellow.
The probabilities are that he was
normal at birth but the smell of
white lead and paint in his young
er days may have given him soften
ing Of the brain; at least it ap-
pears to have affected the place
where his brains ought to he, to
such an extent that ne has lost all
sense of humor; he is liable to
have a fit of laughter when he
should be saddened, while on the
other hand he is liable to break out
in loud and boisterous laughter in
the face of death and desolation.
Please excuse him, dear reader, he
can't help it. He has gone so far
that he thinks calling for a state
ment of receipts and expenditures
is d "knock" and breaks out in a
long, lpud peal of laughter.
That silly grin of the astute Edi-
tor Of the Free Press is like an open
window. 1t shows the man in all
his weakness. The Merchants of
Elko know his limitations and
knowing as they do, leave him
severly alone. If he would only
employ an editor who has some
"horse sense" there might be some
hope for him yet. If he really
thinks The Independent is not a
force to be reckoned with let
him keep up the pace he has set.
He started the music and he must
stop it if he wishes the music to
cease.
