The United States naval officers

Admiral George Dewey thus paid

cussing the passing OF the wine

such an order will be obeyed without

1T will be observed as strictly as
the Congressional act of 1867 against
sp:rituous liquors on board ships
was observed. At that time the sail
ors' pay was raised cents a day
and that incident has been preserved
in the poem written by Pay Inspector
Schenck, entitled Farewell to
Grog. which is a little classic in its
way. So far as know, il is the
only poem he wrote. The reference
TO the increase in pay was con-
tained in the revse reading:

To return again, oh, never,
For they've raised his pay cents a
day,
But stopped his grog forever.

among the officers should buy were
described by Admiral Dewey.
In the former trick a page would
be chosen, and the officer who miss
ed opening the volume at the proper
place by the largest margin had to
buy" But the favorite scheme to
settle that question was for each Of
ficer to place a lump of sugar be-
fore his plate. The owner of the
lump on which a fly first alighted
was the victim for a round OF wine
or beer.
''Officers signed a check for their
drinks. and settlements were made
at the end of the month, just as is
now done in many clubs"
Admiral Dewey declined to ex-
press any opinion on the merits OF
Secretary Daniels order. He reiter-
ated his belief in the absolute sub
mission OF naval officers to the new
prohibition. He cOntrasted their at
titude with that of the British Off
GERS who resigned in protest against
Great Britain's policy toward Irish
home rule

cH,LpREn,s EYE STRAIN.

| Our excellent boards OF health in
many cities in the union, have very
wisely directed that children suffer
| ing from the diseases above mention
| ed should be segregated from the rest
of their companions in school for a
considerable length Nof time during
the continuation of their affection as
we'll as afterward for fear Of infec-
ton or possible contagion. This Is
eminently proper, and should be per
sisted in carefully. and a rigid quar-
antine effected and properly main
tanned during the disease and SO long
afterward as Is deemed necessary.
There is. however. an additional
reason WHY after an apparent cure
OF the local or constitutional disease.
the children so affected should be
granted a considerable vacation, and
that is the eye-strain which almost
Invariably accompanies these dis
eases, and continues with the suffer
er for some time after apparent bod
lily recovery. II we permit children
so affected to enter school at once.
at the time when the physicians per
NIT them to return as free from con-
tagion, there is great probability that
bad results will follow, so far as the
eye is concerned For they are at.
this time weakened for use at near
objects. and the sudden exe-tson
demanded from them, as for instance
in writing in book and then look
ing at a distant blackboard for notes.
or in looking at a book and then al
an example on the blackboard, exerts
the accommodation of the eyes to an
unusual degree and leads to eye
strain from which recovery may not
take place for months. Instances OF
this sort have also been recently OBJ
served after the humps, in which the
eyes could not be used for work for
seven weeks, tn least exertion beina
followed with flow Of tears, smart
ing and burning of the eyes.
Instances Of this sort OF eye-strain,
occurring daily in the practice OF
ocuhsts. prove how intimately the
eyes are connected with the body and
the folly of regarding them as mere
things by themselves, the sight OF
which needs only to be tested by liz
experienced men. People have to be
taught by constant REPETITION. that the
eyes are part Of the body. and are
constantly exhibiting symptoms. such
as have above been mentioned, te
prove their close relationship.

Cutters and Sleigh Balls Give Place
Nowadays 70 Gasoline Cars
With Non-skid APP
pii.ness.
BUT FEW sLEIGHs OUT
First sis Snow Of Season Here and
Roads in Good Shape for Cut
tiers Fails to Find
Many Out.

What has become OF the old fash
toned cutter and sleighbells?
Three guesses are not necessary to
solve the question. One word VIII
do. It is t:.Automobile." The auto
has made terrific inroads into the
old mode OF getting around over
snow streets.
This fact was borne IL on persons
following the heavy snow Of the past
few days. There Is distinct lack 81
sleighs and the jingling Of sleighbells
is rare. In the place OF this tinkting
of bells ther4 sounds the strident
notes Of the auto horn, warning OF
the approach of the machines.
In years past the first snow al
ways brought large number OF
slefghs on the street. The first snow
struck Keokuk the latter part of last
week, and more came during the
week which is ending today. The
snow was OF just the right sort to
make good sieighing. but the sleighs
failed to appear. Only about one
was seen where ten used to be count
ed. 1t did not take long to find the
reason for this decrease In this mode
of travel.
The automobile answers the ques-
ton. Just az the joy car has dis
placed the horse and buggy, SO has
1t taken the niche formerly allotted
to the sleighs With chains on the
rear wheels. and the car all closed in
to keep out the cold and snow, the
auto furnishes an ideal method Of
transportation even In snowy wealth
er
And, as matter of fact, the roads
are in much letter condition with
covering Of snow 80 far as smooth
ness Is concerned. For this reason
the gasoline car has supplanted the
sleigh bells and cutters.
