A specialist baa claimed that he ran with th unaided eya distinguish ltnea ruled In glaaa that ar only ona ftKy thouaandth of an Inch apart, but La Cont ha limited th power of th eye to distinguish line to on one thousandth of an Inch. To how how Immensely superior la th sense of sight In defining single things on can try the sense of touch In- comparison with It- Two points ot a pair of compasses placed three inches apart on the least sensitive parta of the body will ha felt aa a single prick. With the aid of the microscope tha human eye can discern objects whoaa diameter la only about one one-hun-dred-and-elght-thousandth of an Inch. It haa been said that the eye of a fly can distinguish an object one flve-mll-llonth of an Inch in diameter. What we designate aa the eye of a fly 1 really a compound eye, made up of numerous lenses. Of these the com mon house fly has something like 4000 In the two eve. The structure of these lense ar well known, th op tical part of each consisting of two lense. which, combined, form a double convex lena. That each lena acta as a separate ey can be easily proved by detach ing the whole of the front of tha com pound eye. and by manipulation with a mlcroacop it Is not difficult to examine a photograph or other object through It- When this la done a dis tinct Image is seen in each lena. Carpenter haa shown that each lena reflect but a amall portion of the Image looked at. and that It require the combined action of the 4000 lensea of the fly to produce the same effect aa that een by th one human eye. The human eye Is. therefore, a mors perfect optical Instrument than the eye of the fir. ' Scientist who have given consid erable attention to the Investigation of compound eye have formed no opin ion that would lead to the conclusion that their power of vision with respect to small object exceeds that of th simple eye of th higher animals. Tha Images of object formed In the sepa rate lensea composing the compound eye are proportionally small, and the question whether Insects can see matl er objects than animal ftimlahed with Ingle erea Is not a question of optica, but of the sensitiveness of the optic nerve, and consequently a matter of mere conjecture.

Incapacitating the liver and kid neys for their work, debilitating the heart, choking the lungs and clogging th bowels.
