According to the JPopular? Science
Monthly there is a s'ad deterioration
in human eye-sight. J,t is claimed
that white paper and black letters are
doing it. According to this authority:
'Lord Bacon lone airo said that th
o the sun are reflected by a white body and
absorbed by a black one: Hence the shm
of the letters in an ordinarily printed; book
are um, receivea on ine retina by a spon
taneous direct action of that organ. The
white surface of the paper is reflected, and
the letters are detected only by a discrimi
nating effort of the optic nerve. "This, effort
annoys the nerve, and when long continued
destroys its Busceptibility." ' 2 :

terday there was a rather strange sight to
be .seen, at- the r Agricultural, building.
Stretching a distance of 108 feet was a dis
tinctive exhibit of North, Carolina's varied
resources, m the most compact form imagi-,
nable. The exhibit is. to go to fourteen
Northern fairs, to compete for gold medals
offered,: for the largest variety oft field
crops, woods, timbers and minerals exhib
ited by Southern and Western.. States seek
ing immigration. J The idea is Mr. Pat
rick's own and struck the observer as be-
ng just the thing to hit the popular fancy.
There was a strip of cloth, plaid, goods, ;
xorty . ieet long, upon wnicn was pamted
"North Carolina Mills Manufacture a Fine
and Durable Grade, of Cloth." Then came
a map of the State, and on a white strip of
cloth twenty feet krag-the words -"North
Carolina." Another map followed, af
ter which was another strip of cloth,
on which were the words, "North
Carolina Plaids. Thomas M. Holt.
Haw River Mills." Below these-in
scriptions and maps hung cases made of
all the woods found in the State; and divi-i-
ded into little fJompartments. . There are no
leas tnan twenty-one of these cases. Tne
compartments; each lour inches square, are
covered with mica or glass, and they con-
tarn eighteen kinds of corn, as well aa every
grain or grass in the State, beans, wild nuts

Oils of various kinds, dried fruit, 71 varies
ties and medicinal herbs, 163 kinds of mm
erals, as well as grain and . grasses in the
abeaf, and hundreds of . other things which
illustrate North Carolina. The compact
ness of all this may be understood when it
is stated that the cases are 2x3 three feet in

building, which was thought to' be more

long, .however, when the house to which
theyhad -retreated succumbed to the vio-
lence df the hurricane' and became partial
ly demolished. There was -no alternative
now,, left but to return to the house they
had abandoned. On the front, fadnthe
ocean,, the sea washed up against the build
ing to such an extent, before they left it,
that ingress and egress would have been
next to impossible; no w.on their return.they
found to their consternation that the high
steps at the rear of the house- had been
washed away during their absence; and
there was no means.of entrance. Alt they
could do was to select the least exposed lo
cation and patiently endure the pollings of
the pitiless storm until peace had once more
een . restored to the warring elements.
Fortunately, though fairly. plastered by

MBS. WINSLOW'S SOOTHING STBUP.-Bby
STLyANtra Cobb thus writes in the Boston Chris
tian Freeman. : We would by no means recom
mend any kind of medicine which -we did not
know to be good particularly to infanta. .. But
of Mrs. Winslow's Soothing 8yrnp we can speak
from knowledge; In our own family it has proved
a blessing indeed, by giving an mfanf troubled
with colic pains, quiet sleep, and the parents un
broken rest at night. Most parents can appre
ciate these blessings. Here is an article which
works to perfection, and which Is harmless; for
the sleep which it affords the infant is perfectly
natural, and the little cherub awakes aa "bright
as a button." And during the process of teeth
ing its value is incalculable, we have frequent
ly heard mothers say -that they would not be
without it from the birth of the child till it-had
finished with the teething siege, on any conside
ration -whatever. Sold by all druggists. 25 cents .
