New Potatoes Grow Old.

If you place two-year-old potatoes
in a hox in perfectly dry dark place
and leave them for few weeks you
will find that new potatoes have grown
on the old ones. They will continue to
grow until the old potatoes have shriv-
eled to dry skins.

Eyeglasses.

The suggestion of the use of lenses
for the cure of eye defects was made
by Roger Bacon, the great scientist of
the thirteenth century. The making
of the spectacles was carried out by
Italians. Physicians of those days,
however, did not know the true theory
upon which they were based.
