Don’t Rub The Eye.

When yon get a einder or speck of dtist or other offensive particle in yotri* eye, don’t rub it. Don’t touch it. Don t pull down the lid. Don’t put your hand near it. Let it alone. This is very hard advice to follow,and in nine cases out of ten you will liud yourself rubbing your eye before you know it. But if you can refrain from touching your eye at all the action of that organ will itself cast out the offending juote in much quicker time, and with far less irrita'ii)ii, while your efforts would only iJertuips "fasten the intruder so that it.will stay a long time. Of course if it is a particle of metal you will consult a surgeon or oculist at once; but ordinary-substances are best treated as above indicated. Some people say, ‘‘rub the other eye,” but this is of no use.—GootZ Housekeeping. “Let us learn French Goslin. What do vou say?” ‘‘Cawn’t do it, Dolley; 'tisn’t English, you know.”— Harper'» Bazar.
