to the speed of the car. The e.
fects upon the eye bear an Inn

Of the exposure.
The most frequent causes or
inflammation OF the eyes, how
ever, are germs.
You will be interested to know
that probably the majority Of al
Of the inmates Of institutions for

have been made blind by vicious
germs that have Injected the eyes
at the time OF birth. These are.
the germs Of loathscrne diseases
with which the unfortunate moth
ers have become injected before
the birth Of their babies.
One Of the most common means
Of spreading diseases Of the eye
in former times was the roller
towel that was so much used IN
public places. such as hotels. res
faurants and schools. You can
readily understand that an In
dividual with sore eyes. uains
such a towel, would deposit upon
It germs which the next user Of
the same towel would rub into his
own eyes.
It is for these reasons that your
health authorities local. state and
nationals have ordered the ais
continuance Of the roller towel in
All public places.
It is also of the highest l1mpor-
lance that you should be personal
" circumspect in. carrying out
the same rule. II . member Of

<<"HAT mule certainly is

n we saw a big mule
thrust his head into the river
by which we were walking. in
England and take a long draught
Of the cool water.
Suddenly as we watched him,
the mule jerked his head out Of
the water, whinneyed, kicked up
his heels and wagging his tail
angrily jumped back from the
bank.
What's up?" 1 exclaimed.
What was it?" / asked.
THAT mule was attacked by a

What kind. Of a fish?} oueried
Bobby.
"A pike" said Bunny. "Tl1at
mule was not doing anything but
taking a drink of water when
along came al big pike-very
probably weighing fifty pounds
you know they grow to enormous
size often weighing hundreds Of
pounds-and shipped ut his nose"
THAT is amazing" said I, cal
though I know they are very
vicious and will eat ducks and
even bite peoples feet when they
are wading. But to attack a
mule. That is nerve"
They're called fresh water

fishy. But it actually happened.

before the Literary and Philo-

visiting at Durham at the country
seat of the Earl Of Stamford and

"One day he was walking by

kept.
Doctor Warwick stood by the
