Whv Xop Wink.

The unconscious act OF Wlnk1ng
bears quite important relation to the
welfare of the eye. This being the
most delicate and sensitive organ of
the body exposed to the air, it is in
constant need of the protection given
by the eyelids, which not only close
quickly at the approach of danger, but
are employed in washing the surface
of the eye. Moistening is required to
offset the drying effect of the air and
cleaning to prevent the injurious effect
of dirt. Every time you wink the eye
is washed. Inside the eye is the little
tear gland, which, as it's name implies,
is busy storing up the supply of tears.
This gland keeps the inside of the lid
moist. and you wink automatically
whenever the surface of the eye be-
comes dry or particle of dust or any
thing else strikes it. This work is
done as often as necessary, and to
realize how often it is necessary try
how long you can keep your eyes open
without winking.

: Russia's Immensity.

The Russian empire is as compact as
the British empire is scattered. 1t is
one great mass with no parts, except
possibly few islands along the coast
separated from the main body. There
are no distant possessions, no oversee
territory, and the ear claims no dOmin-
ion over any land not in the northern
hemisphere.
Its area is what astOnishes. 1t is
larger than all of North America from
the canal north and with the islands
of the Caribbean thrown in. One-sixth
of the land area Of the globe is under
the cars flag and within its bOun-
aries is a population greater than that
of Great Britain, Germany and France
combined. And this population of be-
tween 160.O0O,O0O and 100000 is
increasing at the rate of 100000 q
year by birth. The population of the
empire has doubled in forty years
OF the many strange things about
Russia perhaps the strangest is that
this immense empire has no salt water
port which does not freeze up in the
winter. No big nation in the world
is so circumscribed in this respect
