SPOTS BEFORE
the EYES.

The prevalence of this condl.
tiOn has given rise to q great
many curious ideas. Almost ev
eryone either sees fixed or floating
spots at times, or hears some
friend complain of these condi
tions, 50 that it is not strange
that many popular misconceptions
have arisen. The commoDest form
of floating spots are those which
are known by the name of mnscae
vOlitantes, an old name which in
dioates how long the condition
has been observed These are
tiny transparent cb ,iDs, or strings,
which are seen especially on a
white or brightly illuminated
field. They persistently float in
the line of vision, and though q
shake Of the head may carry them
out Of the way, they at once float
back again. These spots are
probably caused by the remains IN
the fuid part of the eye of certain
cells which should have been
completely absorbed in the devel-
opment Of the eye, They never
lead to impairment of vision and,
a. before stated, are perfectly
transparent. Other floating spots
are due to cobweb like masses of
iDflammatory material which are
thrown out into the fluid Of the
eye by some low grade inHamma-
ton. These spots usually obscure
the vision, which is their great
polDt Of difference from the for
mer onos. 1t is, of course, very
important to find ont IN any case
whether the spots are due to in.
hamm alton, or not, and this can
only be done by skilled oh
server. It is prevalent idea
that the wearing of dotted veil
may leave permanent spots in the
field Of vision. While the dotted
veil may be a source of strain by
causing the wearer to pail on the
eye muscles In order to avoid the
obstruction TO vision, it certainly

THE NOISY MOVES AGAIN.

Ezra Pound, the Philadelphia poet,
whose work has thrilled London, said the
other day of Alfred Noyes. his British
rival:
"Noyes declares that my torch of diluted
Browningism after feeble sputter. has
gone out Now. i'm revenge, let me tell YOU
a story about Noyes and Swinburne.
fSome time after Rossettis death Noyes
wrote long memorial poem. He was so
proud of this poem that he waylaid Swim
burne one morning on Putney Common
and insisted on reading II TO him.
"Swinburne tried TO escape, but Noyes
bawled the whole thirty stanzas into his
poor. deaf ear Then. at the end, he said,
with a complacent smile:
There. sir. is my poem on Rossetti.
What do you think OF ii
ut would have been better Swim
burne answered, IL you had died and Ros-
setti had written the poem.
