AT BOTTOM OF EVERY T HING The Eye Is the Key to Harplness, to Good Behavior and to Succeaa, Declares Oculist. If yon are cranky instead of amiable, if you are bad instead of good, or I if you are unhappy Instead of happy, it may not be your own fault afte :.14, but rather the condition of youi bralu and of your eye. At least that is v hut Dr. Archer Leslie Hood, au English oculist, claims aftth' years of exhaustive study of the relation of the human eye to character. He believes, in fact, ' the eye is the key to happiness, to good behavior, to success. It is now possible, declares Dr. Hood, to make a man a useful member of society, no matter how erratic, unbalanced. and disagreeable be has been, simply by seeing his brain and eye muscles receive proper nourishment. When anything is wrong it means the man’s brain or some par ■ ticular part of It. is being poorly nour ished. For instance, that part in which the faculty of benevolence Is situated may not be getting enough blood. Then such a man will not be benevolent. He will be animal-Uke lu his propensities. He will not know how to keep order either as to his person and clothes or in any work he does. An examination ct .i. eyes of such a person shows his brain doesn't gal enough blood The blood can be sent there til! the part is normal. Then the man becomes benevolent and kindly Every one knows how a,steady eye is always the mark of a well-poised man. His eye muscles are strong. An , examination of his eye would show M-ll pays v. ere getting thx right amount of nourishment. Criminals, on the other hand, real criminals and not those overcome by circumstances, have weak, shifting eyes. Those ars examples ev- ry one is familiar with. A woman who has no maternal ini -stincts is always found to have a poor supply of blood to the back lobes of the brain. She cannot help not caring i for children. But send the tight I amount of blood to her cerebrum cud ; she will become loving and maternal at once.

Easier to Be Good or Sad? Is It easier to he good rhan to bo i bad? It has occurred to an eminent minister to assert that it is. And be is quite right. Indeed, it is etmage that the world has not toued it out, and become sinless. Much—even-thing— conspfrea In favor of bring good. The first thirst 'for applause. rh<- de“ire to strut with , ; inflated ches-’ the memory as virtue’s rewards previous’:' enjoyed—all these I drag the helpless vietta fr.to 'he meshes of ge-mlnees. Ths wonder is that sin tic s not b'crunc .-xtln.-i, I:4* those functions of the body which were use .1 before simian* stopped climbing trees and became men. Really, isn’t it a wonder that -fter ' Innumerable years ot experience with ’he inevitable penalties of bod and 1 with the highly d.-sirable rewards of ] b’OOdness people wt.l go ot» ’n: bebsving themselves? Fiona cr pagan, the facts are obvious to all, and a well, developed business sense our’.'.t to be : enough to make everybody virtuous. For virtue fits in with th ■ way tho world is built. The pagan would say that virtue is virtue because it does i ut, and that vice Is vics because it doesn’t. Th" pions would say that virtue fits because it is virtue, end I that vice does not fit because .it is I vice. But pious or pagan, we ail nurnit I that virtue flts and that vics-tfoee rot; and then we ail alike try to mak< vice . fit when we know it won't. I his is the great business *ra of the world’s history. But we are au slow today as ever to learn the greatest business principle ever known to the world—that virtue io easier tc practice than vice, and that virtue is all profit and vice all loss.—Syracuse Journal. Burglar-Proof Glass in Parts. Great strides have been maua In France these last few months in the use of burglar-proof glass. Its dis | covery was due to Ito tremendous ■ need, for Paris, of all cities in the I world, seemed to be most at the mcr- ' cy of that particular form of highI wayman who frequents the boule vards at night, breaks the window* of i jewelry stores and make* a wav ■ promptly with the valuables. It is claimed that this burglar proof glass is made by a secret p;o<>. ■ though, of course, it is admitiud that its thickness is one of its first ess.-e-i Hale, it is from one-half to an iocn thick and is able to resist a hard blow, aimed by a strong man. from a 15-pound iron handle. Ordinary glnF* would have been shattered by l. b'-.w less than one-tenth as heavy. Much is expected from this In veni tion in the near future. — ■ Boundary Strictly Observed. One feature in which the Russian frontier differs from others is the complete ignorance of those living near the border of what lies bevond A correspondent jf the Autocar say* that he called at the Automobile club in Breslau, hoping to gain some information. “The members received i..kindly and did all they could to help, but explained that they never crossed '■ the frontier and had no flrst-ha:.d knowledge. The German custom of. i fleers, living for ten years within yards of Russia, spoke no word of Russian, and the Russians beyond th* fhnlu no German. There I* a I neutral strip some three or four yterd* wide between Russia and Germany. Itlong which many Russian sent.-lev ire potted, and mounted Cossacks pea* it short intervals riding the bou» ■> iurv.” 1
