By EDWIN K. NYE. CROSS EYED fCOPLCa Th. technical name given to cross eyes by oculists Is strabismus." But Do you know there is such a thing as a distortion of the mind's eye a sort of Dental strabismus? As the vision of tbe natural eye Is impaired by tbe defect In tbe eye mns cles. so is the vision of the mind's eye affected by tbe hick of control of tbe mind muscles, so to speak. Tbe vision is distorted. I know a farmer -.who cannot rightly see things. When It rains be fancies tbe crops will be ruined by tbe flood. and when It doesn't rain be is quite certain there will be a long, disastrous drought I know a merchant who suffers In tbe same way. It never is com enougn ro sell bis stock of winter goods, and mostly tbe weather la too chilly to offer his summer fabrics. I know a lawyer who suffers from a like mental defect. He can see no good in his fellow attorneys. In bis way of seeing, every member of the bar save himself Is crooked. And tbe commu nity never has given him credit for tbe ability be possesses. Cross eyed! I know a preacher who always sees and deplores tbe decline of religion and the state of tbe church. He blames the people. Instead of himself, because his congregation Is so small. I know a doctor who takes the time b. should give to his medical Journals to explain to yon bow bis brother phy sicians violate "professional ethics." while he himself Is Immaculate. I know an editor who forever Is find ing fault with his town and Its people and who seldom prints a boost for bis community. I know a man who can see no good In his neighbors or their children and who Is busy the summer through with a controversy because of his dogs and chickens. I know a woman who scents a scan dal each time she sees two persons of opposite sex talking with each-other, who is sure the grocer always cheats ber and is ready to suggest that So and so is not as good as she appears to be. Crosseyed people. They cannot see things straight Victims of mental strabismus, pos sibly they cannot be blamed for It And the cure? Flesh and blood cross eyes may be straightened and cured by a surgical oiHTjition. That Is common. Possibly there Is no other way by whlcb cross eyed minds may be cured. Dr. Bathurst's Lady. Writing In the last half of tbe seven teenth century, Anthony A. Wood, an old bachelor who knew bis own mind. thus commiserates his friend and con frere. Dr. Bathurst: "Dr. Bathurst took his place of vie. chancellor, a man of good parts and able to do good things, but be has a wife that scorns that be should be in print: a scornful woman, scorns that be was dean of Wells; no need of marrying suco a wo man, who !s so conceited that she thinks herself fit to govern s college or nniversity."
