I I i 1 1 1 i i i i i TOS? BILLY EFFECTS OF INTENSE LIGHT They Are Not So Serious When the Amount Received by the Retina Is Reduced. It is not so much the intensity of the light focused on the retina as it is the quantity received by that sensitive organ that causes retinal fatigue or worse. In the great snow fields of the irctic regions the natives protect their eyes from the glare of tjie snow by goggles made of hollowed pieces of wood in which they have made small holes to look through. This, says the Optical Review, reduces the quantity of the light which passes Into their eyes with consequent relief from the glare.

So, too, if we look through a minute pinhole disc at the sun we can endure the very bright light much longer than when we look with the naked eye. If we look at a distant electric arc light there Is no retinal fatigue, while if we look at the same light from a short distance there is great discomfort, and yet the two retinal images are of equal brilliancy, only in the first case this Image is very much smaller than in the second case; that is the quantity of light is very much different Then there is the flaming electric light which Is now to be found in all of the large cities of the country. This light Is much less brilliant than that of the arc light, and yet Its size is so great that this more than makes up the difference, and it is, therefore, very glaring and uncomfortable to look at. In skiascopy it is possible to use a very intense light if it is made small in area and for the reasons above stated. What She Wanted.

113 MAIN STREET WHEN HEINE SAW NAPOLEON The Trees Appeared to Bow to the Little Emperor, Said the Great German Poet. There came a day also when the young Heine saw Napoleon: It was in the avenue of the. palace garden at Dusseldorf. As I thrust my way through the throng I thought of the deeds and the battles wrhlch M. Le Grand had drummed to me, and my heart beat the march of the general- and yet at the same time I thought of the police order prohibiting riding through the avenue, penalty five shillings and the emperor with his suite rode down the middle of the avenue, and the scared trees bowed as he passed and the sunbeams trembled in fear and curiosity through the green leaves, and in the blue heavens there swam visibly a gold star.

The emperor was wearing his modest green uniform and his little cocked hat known the world over. He was riding a little white horse that paced so calmly, so proudly, so securely and with such an air. Listlessly sat the emperor, almost loosely, and one hand held high the rein and the other tapped gently on the neck of the little horse. The emperor rode calmly down the middle of the avenue. No agent of the police opposed him; behind him proudly rode his followers on foaming steeds and they were laden with gold and adornments; the drums rattled, the trumpets blared, and with a thousand voices the people Juried: Long live the New York World.

Maines Deserted Villages. Maine has had her deserted farms and now' and then one can find her deserted villages. Such a one is Welch-ville, in the town and county of Oxford, w'here once the pulse of machinery kept life beating fast- in- a thriving little community. To day the population Is scattering, on the farms thereabouts chiefly, while the change in the value of the property is indicated by the story recently related of the sale of a house for $175, which was. worth $1,500 75 years ago.

But the number of such towns Is small. Maine is building up fast. Her deserted farms are being taken up, Eometimes by progressive young farmers, and again by summer people, and the deserted Maine villages promised a new lease of life. Sanitary Science in the Kitchen The importance of the kitchen as a or in the well-being of the home should be ognized by insisting on the best sanitary conditions that modern sanitary science makes possible.
