HEALTH AND HAPPINESS
PEOPLE WITH DARK EYES RESIST
MALADIES BEST
BY DIR. LEONARD KEgNE HIRsHBE rig
a. B., NJ. A, M. D. tJohns Hopkins).

iEOPLE WITH DARK EYES RESIST
MALADIEs BEST.
The color of the eye is the visual
echo of the shade OF feel
ing IN the heart. In every hue
and shade and pigment of the eye
there is prophesy which must sad
den, soften or daunt every Cassan-
ORA who can interpret it. The eyes,
according to another philosopher. are
held as lions, rowing, running, leap
ing, here and there, far and near,
ihey speak all languages; they wait
Tor no introduction; they ask no
leave of age or rank: they respect
neither poverty nor riches, neither
learning nor power.
In another of these ESSAYS / told
OF the experiments in psychology
which associated certain characters
with eyes of definite hues.
1T is of more serious associations
that this has to do: of the coloration
of the eye in its relation to life and
death; contasion and severity Of
such distempers as diphtheria scar
let fever and similar disorders of the
bodily hygiene.
The patholoeists of the Plaistow
Fever Hospital of England, led by
DR.. A. L. Dykes, the senior assistant
medical officer, at the suggestion of
DIR. j. BiernaeiSi, observed that chill
dren with light-tinted eyes seemed
to be more susceptible to malignant
nlaladies of childhood and also more
likely to succu1pb to their ravages.
SO they set about putting their sus-
plcions and mere Impressions to the
test of scientific investigation. These
results are now announced. and to
say they are Significant. and full of
practical interest is to put the mat
ter mildly.
DR.. f. c. Shrubsall finds that epi-
lepsy and eczema of the skin are
more common in the brown-eyed.
whereas acute inlammatory rheu-
matte fever attacks light-eyed per-
sons.
DR.. David Mcdonald. in an investi-
cation of illness among Glasgow chill
dren, found acute fevers to be more
frequent. as well as the recuperative
powers to be wanting, in light-eyed
youngsters.
Drs. Dykes and Biernaeki studied
the ailments of 1000 children under
twelve years of age. One-third dark
eyes, one-third hazel or green eyes
and the other third light blue and
gray eyes were included in the tl1ou-
sand.
In five thousand children i'll with

scarlatina the black and brown-avel
children recovered most easily aud
suffered the fewest complications
Less than per cent. of these s1,e-
cumbed to the mslady.
On the other hand, nearly ner
cent. Of the light-eyed children died
and there were over 20 per cent. III
extraordinarily severe complications
in the other light blue and lighT
gray-eyed little ones.
In diphtheria, tuberculosis ana
some of the other maladies. such as
septic sore throat, this selection bV
diseases of those whose eyes were
light colored was even more strikil1a
Indeed, very few black-eyed and
dark broRn-eyed children fell victims
to the diphtheria contagion. a little
over two in each hundred of these
dark-eyed ones died, while over IA
per cent. of the green-eyed. araV-
eyed and light blue-eyed ones died,
Thus the color of the eye takes ON
a new importance for physicians and
everyone. IF these researches 90 m.
refuted, they indicate that all Of ina
who have light eyes must exert triple
precautions against the inroads of
disease.

Bombardine the Oslcr rhcers.
From the Troy Times.
Among other things the so-called
Osler theory gets a bad setback as
one of the RESULTS OF the war in
Europe. IT has been rather vehcm-
entity asserted that this is the age OF
tho young man. Undoubtedly it is n
fact that never before did the capa-
BILE, industrious and ambitious youth
have a better chance than at present,
when the insistent demand is for en-
ergy and capacity, particularly as re-
CARDS commercial and industrial de-
yelopment. Specialization also plays
q very important part in the material
affairs of the world, and gaining spe-
cial knowledge and applying II to
practical uses is the particular prov
ince of the young man.
Yet IL is evident that the world has
not yet decided to dispense entirely
with the elder statesmen, financiers
and soldiers. 4 glance over the re-
cords will show how many persons
we'll advanced i'm years are still active
and influential in public and CONNER
cial life and playing leading parts in
operations of vast consequence to
their fellows As to the armies en-
gagged in the mighty struggle no one
will deny that they are composed
largely of young men. This is con-
spicuously true of the forces called in
to service at the first mobilization in
Austria, France, Germany. Russia and
elsewhere. The standing armies are
made up for the most part of soldiers
in the early twenties. The reserves
are composed of older men. Many OF
these reserves are now in service,
and accordingly the average age OF
the European fighters has advanced
somewhat.
