SAILORS They Never Learn to Tie a Knot Properly Says a Skipper I dont know why it la said the captain of the tramp steamer but you cuut teach any of those Chinese sailors there to tie a real knot There Isnt much need aboard a steamer for the rope knowledge that used to be so much the part of a focsle training but we do need splices and knots now and again just the same Those Chinese there who were signed on as A Bs can do anything needed in the way of splices that would make an old tar green with envy and theyll fix up deadeyes better than most of the men Ive shipped But you cant get one of em to tie a right knot Teach em again and again and they remember the lesson for half an hour Nest time theres i straight virvday knot to be tied the ChlniwH rorVle hand makes up the same old granny Every child that tries to tie a knot makes a granny This kind of n knot is made up by passing the ends around each other in the reverse direction making the ends stand out at right an gles The ends should b wound around each other in the same direc tion When they come out of the knot they should He alongside the line on either side of the knot Such a knot wont slip But a Chinaman cant learn

Some Things That Are Said to Affect the Sense of Vision Many eye defects of course are due to the bad habits of their possessors Tobacco for Instance is generally held to impair the vision usually injuring the color sense so that gold and silver become indistinguishable According to some medical authorities again the connection between eye and tooth trou ble is more than an old wifes fable In his book dealing With the subject Han cock relates the story of a boy who woke up one morning to find himself blind On examination his teeth were discovered to be crowded together and a few of them were removed with the result that by evening he could distin guish between light and darkness More teeth were removed and in elev en days his sight was fully restored Other cases which tend to show the connection between eye and tooth trou ble have also been noted Very fre quently occupation has much to do wjth one or other eye defect Thus nystagmus is sometimes known as the miners disease Nystagmus is an Involuntary oscilla tion of the eyeball to and fro or round in its orbit In contradistinction to glaucoma it is a young defect having been noticed in infants but sometimes it attacks miners after forty Miners are inclined to attribute the failing to the bad light but it is more likely to be caused by the continual upward glance so often necessitated by their occupation Strand Magazine What the Light Revealed A story is told of a simple and de vout Methodist minister who was not sufficiently eloquent or businesslike to be approved by the presiding elder Through the influence of the elder he felt sure he was appointed to a small and widely scattered settlement where there was much hard work and the results were necessarily meager One day he was commenting sadly on the narrowness of his opportunities to a friend who said gravely that he ought to pray for light that he might see the hand of the Lord in his appointment I have brother he answered again and again But so far he added with a whimsical smile Ive had only light enough to see the in terfering hand of Elder Brown Youths Companion Eyeglasses Did you ever notice queried an optician that nearly every person who wears rimless eyeglasses when polishing the lenses with a handker chief holds the glasses by the nose piece thus putting all the strain of the rubbing upon the screws which attach the glass to the metal Of course this tends to loosen the glass and wear out the thread upon the tiny screw This in turn causes the lenses to wabble resulting In great discom fort ro the wearer Its strange how
