A Matter of Serious Importance.
Under the direction of the Baltimore
school aushefitves a rigid investigation
of the eyesight of the pupi's was made
some tineago. Ii was found that eut
ot a total of 53,030 pupils whose eyes
were exewined fully 9,000 were dis"
qualified trom attendTnz school.
In addition to this startling disclosure
it was ulso found that several thousand
others in such a bad condition
that prompt n edical attention was ad"
vised.
Were
The precedent established by the
Baltimore schoo] authorities in causing
the eyesight cf pupils to be investigated
to the good sense of
educational boards all over the country.
In Atlanta there are nearly 15,000
children enrolled in the public schools,
It is fair to presume that every pupil 'g
blessed with gocd eyesight and that not
a single one of them is in need of med"
ical attention? Such an assumption |=
would be ridiculous in view of the reé
cent disclosures in Baltimore. The
subject is one which the board of edca-
tion should gravely consider, as it in"
volves not only the efficiency of our
public school system, but the physicul
condition of numberless pupils attending
the schools of tnis city. "A lanta Cox-

A Curious Custom,
A strange custom prevails among the
members of a certain tribe in the Qau-
cacus. When a single young man dies
some one who has carried to the grave a
matriageable d2ughter in the couse
of the year calls upon the bereaved
parents and says: oYour son is sure
to wanta wife; ITll give you my daugh-
ter and you shall deliver to me the
marriage portion in return.� A friend-
ly offer of this description is never re-
jected and the two parties soon come
to terms as to the amountof the dowry,
which varies according to the advan-
tages possessed by the girl in her life-
time. Cases have been known where
othe young manTs father has given 30
cows to secure a dead wife for his dend
son."Chicago News.

mot gn spre
tion In the pos
ing to ap oiticial of the jot oie: dle
partment who has been i in the | service
for over 20 years, there have been no
counterfeiting of stamps during that
period. The official referred to has
been identified with the third assist-
antTs office for many years and he is
familiar with almost e% very detail in
relation tape stamp question. He has
a large fund of anecdote on the sub-
ject of stamp collectors, which he gives
out in homeopathic doses when not too
busy with the routine business of his
office.
There are several thrifty stamp col-
ectors in New York who make hand-
some incomes from buying and selling
stamps. A few years ago the postmas-
ter general ordered a reprint of an
obsolete design of a five-cent stamped
envelope. It was a mistake on the part
of the department and as soon as it
was discovered all of these envelopes,
about 10,000 in number, were called in.
A stamp collector in New York in some
way learned that these envelopes were
soon to be called in, so he bought 1,500
of them before the postmaster had time
to send them back to the ccpartment,
After all the others had *~n called in
he had a monopoly of the issue and he
was selling them freely at five dollars
each to ostamp cranks.� He paid but
five cents apiece for them, hence his
protit was enormous.
There is another incident where a
stamp collector learned that there
would be a short issue of a certain de-
nomination put in circulation, so he
went to the contractor and purchased
$10,000 worth of the new issue. He at-
tempted to sell them at greatly ad-
vanced prices and complaint was made
to the department. An investigation
was ordered and the result was an un-
limited number was ordered to be
printed and the man who had invested
in $10,000 worth was so badly stuck
that he appealed to the department to
redeem those he had not sold.
oStamp collectors are a queer lot,�
continued the official, ofor there are
many of them in the business who will
resort to almost any means to get hold
of a rare issue. They keep a sharp
lookout for all changes made in the
quality of paper used in the manufze-
ture of stamped envelopes and they
manage to find out every time when a
change in any design of stamp is con-
templated.�"N. Y. Times.

features, what its readers, who include the most noted
nares of the English-speaking world, are pleased to call
oabsolutely up to date,� othoroughly abreast of the times,�T
~invaluable,T and ~~indispensable.�T It is profusely illustrated
with timely portraits, views, and cartoons. Its original articles
are of immediate interest, by the best authorities on their respect-
ive subjects. The EditorTs oProgress of the World� gives a
clear, rightly proportioned view of the history of the human
race during the current month. The oLeading Articles of the
Month �T present the important parts of the best magazine act.es
- that have been written in every part of the world. The newest
and most important books are carefully reviewed. Indexes, .
