The archbishop OF York has been

avoid those long lines of monotonous

Proper Lighting Of Streets.

EYES OF A PORTRAIT.
They Seem to Fellow You, but That 10
an Optical illusion.

Why do the eyes of a painted
portrait follow you? II is simply
an optical illusion, easily explained.
To produce such an effect the
eyes Of the person represented in
the portrait must be looking direct
} ly in front and not toward one side.
So much for that. Nov, under
such circumstances the pIpil Of
each eye is necessarily in the mid.
die thereof. with ~ much "white"
on one side rs on the other.
Obviously this relation does not
vary at all with the position assum-
ed by the observer. The latter may
stand far over on either side Of the
picture, and yet, from his point Of
view, there is a. much white" on
one side of each eye as on the other,
and the pupil is still in the middle.
Such being the case. the painted
image continues to look directly at
him.
That is all there is 10 il. And
exactly the same principle applies
10 the pictures often seen in adyer-
Using signs. which not only look
but also point steady finger Iii
rectly at the observer, no matter
where the latter may stand. Some
times instead Of finger it is a pis-
tol in the picture that is pointed.
This very curious optical phe-
nomenon is exhibited most striking
ly on the street cars. One enters,
say, at the rear door and sees on
picture sign man pointing a
finger or a pistol at him. As the
passenger goes forward the man
actually seems TO turn and follow
him with eye and pistol, still point.
ing the latter at him when he has
reached the front door of the car.
Ii is a swing through an are of nine
ty degrees or more.
You see. whatever the point of
view may be $50 long as the picture
is in sight at ALI. the muzzle of the
pistol or the finger tip is always
OFFICIALLY central. The picture be-
ing n plane surface. the relation Of
finger tip or muzzle To the other
parts of IL is unaltered; hence
wherever you stand the pistol or
finger points at you.

about il that CHIEFLY interests most
people who see il is that, no matter
which OF the two flights (which are
fifty feet apart one ascends, the
sheep seem to be running directly
toward the observer. Here again
the optical principle involved is ex-
setly the sane.-New York Amer

must suffer also. This Is a case
where the iniquity Of the fathers is
visited upon the children TO the
third and fourth generations.
But the remedy. Young women
have the remedy very largely with
in themselves. The influence OF
pure-minded sister over a brother
cennot be estimated. The influence
Of young women over the young
man who loves her is strong enough
10 he a determining factor in most
81 his conduct Every man who has
any self respect at all has some
spark Of chivalry within him, and
this best part Of his nature always
responds to the love Of the woman
he admires. Beauty, virtue, gentle
ness, all the wholesome and natural
charms in a woman, appeal TO all
that is best in a man. An inclina-
ton TO be weak and flippant in a
woman appeals TO the less noble part
Of the man. Like appeals to like.
The young woman can nearly al
ways have the kind Of appreciation
aud devotion she wants from
young man. If she always lives at
her best she will always appeal to
the best there is in him. The divin-
ily in his nature responds to the
divinity in hers. There are cases
where this is probably not true, but
in such cases the man has low ideals
and is almost incapable Of thinking
wholesome things and living the
Wholesome life.
" the young women who know Of
the dangers ! have been discussing
assert their rights they will usual
~ get them. n they insist that the
man they expect to wed be pure in
body and mind as they themselves
are great many men will begin to
think of some things differently.
Perhaps every normal, healthy
Young man hopes to have home at
some time. IT he is told by the
Young woman he loves that she can
not help him realize his hopes unless
he keeps himself unspotted from the
world, and il she means what she
says and he knows she means il, the
better nature in him will respond
and he will usually endeavOr to be
worthy Of her An attitude Of this
kind in the young woman would go
a long way in determining the con-
duet Of the young man she expects
to marry. The strongest ties in all
the world are the ties Of holy love.
II the force of love cannot succeed
the young woman has another very
powerful ally. In number of
states a young man is compelled by
law To- present a health certificate
given by reputable physician be-
fore he can secure a marriage Ii
cense. Such law does not operate
in this state. but the young woman
still has the right to ask for such
certificate that must be given by her
own physician. At first thought it
seems that this would be little I'M
pleasant, and so il would be in many
instances. But if this rule were fol-
lowed by all young women before
the marriage vows are taken there
would be fewer young wives and
mothers compelled to go to the OPP
Grating table, there would be fewer
childless homes, there would be
fewer divorce proceedings, there
would be only a few blind children
in the country instead of the thous-
ands who are hopelessly blind to-
day; there would be far less misery
and occasional illness in the home,
and welded life for thousands of
people would have all the Joys that
they had hoped for before they
knelt before the marriage altar.
