Bat rummaging among the odds and ends
of vague impressions and half-eflaccd reg
membranous he. found the missing link. and
by its aid wove a chain of logic which do-
cided him to take the first train for the
East.

Briefly stating his argument. Fred Wel-
lington. his roomvmato at college. had mar-
ried :\ nits Ilrinkcrliofi. and they were liv~
ing at Palatine. the identical place which
Repentance '(as he supposedl had given at
her local address. He thought a great deal
of Fred. although they had not correspond
ad for three or four years. and Palatine war
situated in the Mohawk Valley. which was
noted for its beautiful scenery. “'hy
should he not take a trip to the Mohawk
Valley and renew his old friendship?
. C ‘ C O . O .

Repentance was standing on a kitchen
chair. tying up the sweet ports that rioted
over the porch. and looking like a magni.
fied blossom herself. in her pink lawn dre-
and garden hat. when the gatc chingcd and
her brother-inlay: came up the walk arm in
arm with a fine-looking stranger.

As she took a furtivc peep from under the
pink shadow of Mt hat. she dct‘iilt‘d that It.
was the handsomest man she had over arch.
and when a pair of dark—gray cycs looked
up suddgnly and returned her gaze. she felt
that he was a man to trust as well as to ad~
mire.

The stranger. on his part. discovered tlml
4 the sun had not been skilled artist enough
to d i justice to her face. and also sitisficd
his ‘ intellectual curiosity “ by noting that
her eyes were " darker than darkest pam-
sics." and her’waving hair “ more black
than :La‘ll-Illlils in the front of March."

“ Repentance. my friend Mr. Vainb lcur.
who is intrn-sted in lulllik‘11-:Lx‘t‘t‘nsiilni.

Fh‘il.

Charity. who had rushed upon her be
loy‘ed lbfi‘lllt‘l'~lll<l.\\\' from some leafy den it
the garden. and was now hugging him with
the energy of ii small bear. priekul up her
little ezir‘~ at this.

“ So are we interested in ballimu-ascen.

custard just then. and didn‘t know about it
till it was over V. and Jennie
llirdie Strayer. and a lot. more girls.“

" So I have chanced upon a company of
kindred spirits." laughed Max. tweaking I
yrllow curl on the head of his fellow-sci-
cntist. ‘

" \Vc tied Repentance‘s picture to the
balloon.“ continued Charity. unliceding this
interruption. “ so that people would sec
that she was pretty and tell us where it
went. Experience and I expect‘that it will
go to some ba-rwninl castle. and that the
man who owns it will come here and marry
Repentance." she added. clamping her
hands. and looking into the distance with
the rapt gaze of a sear-ass.

Repentance turned us pink in: her dress
under the amused. odd look which Mr.
V‘andcleur bent upon her.

“ Iain sorry that I am no ‘ baron cold.

So Experiencc‘s penciled inquiry was an
swcrcd. and a question that Max \‘andeleur

sow 'I'O ransévn run unclear.

The editor of the Huntsville Ah. Demo.
amt. who has passed his aim year!
without the use of eyeglasses, and can still.
with his natural ayes read fine print. wishes
to give other people nearing the sore and
yellow leaf the benefit of his occular experi-
ence. Therefore. he tell! them that In 18(‘6
he found his eyesight failing. indicated by
dark specks fiittering over the page and a
hazy appearance of the letters whenhc was
reading. Remembering to have heard his
mother say that Q‘s-President John Quincy
Adams (who lived to about eighty years)
had pnmuved his eyesight and read without
glasses by pressing the outer and inner
corners of his eyes together. the editor tried
the experiment. Aftcr retiring to his bed
at night. he has. ever since thgfall of 1875.
before going to sleep. pmsscd .gcntly to—
gether the outer and inner corner of each
eye between the thumb and forefinger of the
hand mponding to the right and left.
eye. applying equal simultaneous pressure
to both cym. 0r. using but one hand. hc
has put the middle finger on his forehmd
above his time and pressed together the
corners of one. between the thumb and fore.
finger. and the corners of the other eye I».\
tween the third and fourth fingers. striving
to give equal pressure to both eyes. 'l‘lu
philosophy of the cxprimcnt is explained in
this way : As people pan the middle age.
there is said to be (and we believe it) s
endcncy of the balls of the eye to lose their
convexityain common parlance. to flatten.
I‘lio habitual puissure of the outer and inner
corners of the eyes together prevents flatten.
;rig. and thereby prvxserves the original nor-
Jial convexity of the eyes. and thereby the
original power of seeing. Neartsightml
persons are exceptions to the rule. Their
nearsiglitcdncsa (as we understand) in
caused by too great convexity of the eye.
(li‘tentimes. as they advance in years. their
eyas flatten ; that is. lose their original con-
vexity. and become more nearly like the
good eyes of young people. and they can
see better without glasses and lay their
flslili‘. ‘ .
Whether our philosophical explanation is
right or wrong. this one thing we know.
that whereas we. over seventeen years ago.
were'losing our original power of seeing.
now. by the manipulation of our eyes :l.“
above evplained we can see clearly without
the use of glasses. we can read small print
almost. if not quite. as Well as in our youth.
while men and women many years.
juniors. some of them our near blood reli-
lives. who have not resorted to our "1" ‘e of
improving the eyesight. are compelled to
Jun ul’taii‘d. Believing it our duty to min-
kind to do them all the good we can. we
overcome our native modesty about writing
of ourwlf by the miiisidcmtiou that we may
benefit others by relating our own experi-

ence. .

The reason why both eyes should be sub
jected to the (\pial simulthiieous pressure ii
that. to see clcstrly. both eyes should behold
objects at the same focal disninee. and this
cannot be if the two cym haw not the same
aonvcxity. If the two eyes should see ob.
jects at different distances. the object would
present IliIIerent inngos on the two retimc
it tho eyes. and producer a confusion of
itnagort. and. of course. impair distinct
vision. Instances occur of persons who
nave a natural infirmity of the eyes with
different Itx‘lw'dlutl eye seeing at "no focal
distance. the other seeing at‘ another focal
iiatnnce. In such cascs occulists provide
aye-glasses of dificrent foci. so accommiated
‘ato correct the natural defect and lush.
both eyes one alike.

FEAR OF THE DENTIST.

Ten thousand dentists. whose thriving
business attests the baldness of American
teeth. meet with amusing adventures when
they encounter those who are sulfering from
what Burns calls the “ grim. mischiefdnak-
ing chiel " that makes “ mankind aft dime.
a reel.“ A Chicago reporter (I ‘ some
of these expcrlencca. as they wmed
‘0 him by several dcntists'of that city :

“ \l‘e encounter more that is ridiculous
in the extraction of teeth than in any other
branch of the profemion.“ said a dentist.

“ Why. I have had great strong men come
into my office with thcjntention of having
‘a tooth extracted. and at the sight of the in-
struments actually turn and run.-—ycs. run.
as if the angel of death had suddenly ap-
peared before them. '

“ On the other hand. I have seen hail-
lmking little women come in. and without
u word or look that would indicate any tini-
{lit y. take a seat and undergo the operation
with scarcely a sign of fear.

" Mon and women of large stature. as a
general rule. make more fuss than smaller
men and women, and women exhibit less
fear than men.

" Some very amusing incidents occur
luring the practice of a dentist. For in-
itanoc. not long since a prominent lawyer.
being greatly annoyed by an aching tooth.
decided to have it out; so. mastering up
courage. he went to a well-known dentist
and told him he required his services.

“ The lawyer took the chair and the den
list got everything in readiness, when the
lawyer spoke up and said, ‘ I am going to
