Il. Kinds. who told the story of the
tree, and then Major Spalding placed

Blindness.

It may come as surprise to many
to learn that fewer than fifty-five peo-
pie in every thousand are more or
less color-blind. The commonest form
Of color-blindness is not-as is usually
supposed-the inability to distinguish
red and green. That affects one per-
son in fifty-five. The most usual
symptom is to get mixed between blue
and green. One person in sixty cam
not distinguish between brown and
green. Color-blindness is more COM
mon among educated than among un.
educated people, and is far more usual
among men than women. Only about
one woman in thousand is badly
color-blind. A very odd fact is that
musicians are more liable to this affec-
ton than any other class or profess
sion. Illness may cause color-blind-
ness. There is case of woman
who became entirely color-blind after
q form Of ear disease, while signal
man who had suffered from lock-jaw
or tetanus became equally unable to
distinguish color.
