The Care Of Children
Good EyesIght

Good Eyesight.
AS the mouth has been named the
gateway of the body so the eyes
have been called "the windows of the
soul" Blindness from birth means a
loss which those of US who can see
realize only family. The pity OF 1t is
that the main cause Of blindness In
early infancy Is one which is easily
preventable. Much loss OF sight soon
after birth is caused by transmissible
disease. and IL a little solution OF the
salts of silver were dropped into the
eyes of baby at birth, blindness from
this cause would soon cease to exist
Every mother should demand this
treatment for her baby, whether or no
there is any suspicion that the baby's
eyes may be affected. The mother

clean, fresh, cold water. Now arrange
the flowers in 1t. They will give much

CoaSse salt has nearly the same ac-

Explanation Of the Power Many Poe
ssss Of Always Knowing the
Time to a Minute.

Did YOU ever know a person who
could always tell the time to a min
ute without seeing timepiecei That
there are such people is a known
scientific fact. The latest theory in
regard to the power Of those whose
minds count out the hours and min
utes is given by French psychoio-
gist-
'Time is measured in the subcon-
scious mind by heart throbs. The
heart beats for the most part with
great uniformity and ticks of the
seconds as regularly as a clock.
at is in sleeping hours rather
than in waking that the mind works
out the problem best. 1t is no un-
usual feat TO say to your mind at
night, "Call me at $780," and you
viii waken and wonder why, until
you recall that you planned to get
up at just that time.
''This alarm clock in the mind
can be trained" the psychologist
goes on to say, "to be much more
accurate than the buzzer on the table,
which sometimes fails to awaken US
in the morning because we have
heard it too often"
The writer says nothing as to
whether those who are in love will
waken earlier ecause of their quick
ened heart throbs, or whether those
who are depressed and whose heart
beats lag will be late in reaching the
office.

OLD PIPES RELIeHTED.

England may yet become a sue
eessful rival of Virginia in the rails
ing of tobacco, now that its cultiva-
ton is being tried seriously and
backed up by powerful association
formed for the purpose. Tobacco
growing was comparatively impor-
tant and remuneratiye industry in
England at the time of King James
l., but the government put a stop
to it. The king hated the weed, but
with thrifty inconsistency abolished
the tobacco fields of England that he
might gain a greater revenue from
import duties levied on the PERM
cious stuff.
Oddly enough, nearly three centu-
ries passed before England, the only
European country permitting this
neglect, again took up the cultivation
of tobacco with any serious intent
Now the hope is entertained that it
growing and preparation for thu
market may give profitable occupa
ton to many persons as well a
prove remunerative to holders O
small acreages, for cooperation il
curing the crop will be one of tn
features of the movement.

Mediums Of exchanges Have Not A.
ways Taken the Form Of the
Familiar orcenbacts.

A curious medium Of exchange In
Scotland not many years ago was
handmade nails. This is equaled by
Switzerland, where eggs are still
current coin. Eggs would be rather
risky coin to deposit in the bank for
several reasons, but not 50 wheat and
oats, which have been used for all
purposes OF sale and purchase in
Norway and have even been banked.
The national corn crop of Mexico
is maize, and not very long ago
formed the chief money Of that re-
public.
In the time OF our grandfathers
tobacco was used almost exclusively
in Virginia instead Of gold and sill
yer. In Newfoundland dried cod
fish was at one time great medium
Of exchange. 1t had the advantage
Of keeping indefinitely, and it is
said that the Newfoundland miser
got as much pleasure from the odor
of his possession as though it were
from Araby.
In savage lands they used more
curious things as money. Salt cir
culated in Abyssinia; cubes of bees
wax were the medium in Sumatra;
cubes of tea were used in Tartary;
in some of the Portuguese posses
sions the coin consists of straw mats.
In the islands of the Pacific they
depend upon feathers, while in Mad
agascar the natives count their
wealth in iron shovels. China has
had varied forms of currency, not the
least curious being the coins made
Of clay, while japan used the slight
ly more expensive substance, resin.
