A Qumc Pot About VUlon.
In tho eye Itself certain things may
to on which glvo us wrong sensations,
which, although not truly Illusions, are
vory much like thorn. Thus when wo
suddenly strike our heads or fuevs
against something In the dark wo seo
"stars," or bright sparks, which wo
know aro not real lights, though they
aro quite as bright aud sparkling as if
thoy wero. When wo close one eye and
look straight ahead nt some word or
Utter In tho middle of this page, for
xample, we seem to o not only tho
thing wo aro looking nt, but every
thing lo Immediately about It and
for a long way on each side. Hut tho
truth Is there Is n largo round spot
omowheto near tho Klnt nt which wo
are looking In which wo sen nothing.
Curiously enough, the existence of this
blind spot was not discovered by acci
dent, aud uobody over usMu(ed It
until Mnrlotte reasoned from the con
struction of the eyeball that It must
txtst nnd proceeded to II ml It.
