MAN MUST LEARN TO SEE. HOW OPTICAL ILLUSIONS ARE PRO DUCED IN PANORAMAS. What tho Painter Haa to Study Caro fully la Order To Bo Successful? How the Most Critical Eyo Is Deceived?Tho Senses Bequlro Training. "To learn to see, doctor? Is not the Bense of sight natural?" exclaimed the re porter in surprise. The oculist, who had been enlarging upon optical delusions, re plied with a smile: "Sounds queer, does it notp Well, tho sense of sight is inborn to a certain ex tent, but then so is walking. Still, if the child does not learn to walk it will never be able to do it The eye undoubtedly acts quicker and at an earlier stage in life upou exterior things, and is one of the first means to enlighten the growing piece of humanity about the world; yet it must be trained to do its work well. In other words, man has to learn to see as well as to walk. The eye Is the busiest organ in the human economy. It does not only inform the intelligent couception about space and time and atmospheric conditions and gravitatiou?to a certain degree it represents sound, lor reading is nothing else than hearing with the eyes. You see the words and their sound is mentally present to you. It is certain that external impressions are at first al together indlsttuct to the new-born babe; it has not yet learned to make mental notes of the picture oa the retina of its eye. But then the impressions of touch and movements go hand in hand with the impression of seeing things, and by and by the child distinguishes what is within and without, on top and below, right and left. The perception of distances is one of the last things the eye learns to tinder stand, but still ths best-trained eye is fro qaently subject to optical illusions in* the matter of distances. A MODERN' PANORAMA. "You enter a modern panorama and your eye?that is, your sense of seeing? is almost forced to believe in the reality of what you see. You look in an almost endless horizon, upon the episodes of a battle between thousands of men, many of whom you recognize; you are moved by the dying moments of one mortally wounded; you are enthused over the cour age of the advancing troops and feel like jumping over the barriers into the seem ing limitless pluin to be closer to the sceues of battle. You see in the fore ground the knapsacks, muskets, guns, the withered vegetation, the undulating ground, and far, far in tho background tho line where the horizon aud life join, cutting off from sight what is beyond. Everything is so natural, so realistic. For awhile you try to tlx the line be tween body and space, reality and pict ure, but you soon give it up and aro satis fied with the illusion. You do not even think of the quietude of tho surround ings, the mysterious stillnoss which rests over tho lighting armies, the burning buildings, and the thundering cannon. The optical illusion is complete. "Thero are so-callod local signs in sight which the painter of a panorama picture has to study carefully in order to be suc cessful. Fir* t, the eye brings the siz-2 of the Impression upon tho retiua into pro portion to the distance; then the lens ac commodates itself to tho distance; then comes the color perspective?distant arti cles being indistinct, the nearer ones plain; then the comparison of the object to be seen with objects intervening. If you, for instance, compare a distant tree with one near at hand, you do not calcu late upon the size of the former actually seen by you, but compare it mentally with the size of tho one uoxt to you. AFTER SKXTL'RIES OF EFFORT. Tho lirst artists painted things as they thought them to be?that is, as they would bo able to perceive them by tho 3euso of touching. Atter centuries of ef forts the dimension and color perspectives was Invented, and the effects of these aro I emplo)red in the panorama with great shrewdness and very subtle observation of nature. The perspectives of dimensions' and colors are so calculated that the ob server has Jittlo or no measure- for reality. The canvas is as far removed from the eye of the observer as possible, and conse- | qucntly the eye is compelled to accom- J modate itself to distance, an operation winch requires mental work and impairs criticism. There is uo frame to the pict ure, and in stretching the canvas care la taken to avoid any creases which would J offer a point of vantage to tho eye. "Tho objects intervening between the : eye aud tho picture are of uatural size, but carefully chosen as to diameter and position; the ground is sloping and the 1 connection between tuoso real objects aud 1 tho picture Is so arranged that the en- i sumblo is not disturbed. The spell of the illusion might bo broken should one stop [ directly from the street in frout of the picture, so that his mind would be tilled by a lively remembrance of the reality j without. In such a case it would t#ike time before tho eye accustomed Itself to the illusion. But then you have to pass through darkened corridors and narrow i passages, dimly illuminated by arti?eiul light, before you cotno into the panorama proper. These changing impressions de stroy the last remnant of the scenes of [ reality offered on the street without, and after the first glance at the picture the illusion is complete."?Chicago News. "Men Talk, but Don't Converse." "Doyou know," said a St. Paul young i lady, who is somewhat of a literary turn Of mind, to a friend, "that one of the best ways to form an estimate of any person; with whom you are acquainted, with re-! spect to his mental endowments, is to I note the ratio of personalties to generali- j ties in his conversation. 1 have tried this ! and find it to be n:i infallible method. It requires but little effort of mind to nc quira a .-tuck of personalties, and less effort to narrate them. Ono whoso con- I versation abounds with generalities and ! occurrences that happen outside of his ] personal experience manefests an nctive j mind; mental activity is nocessary to generalize and formulate. By con versa- j tlou 1 moan what is ordinarily under- , stood by the term. In its higher sense it may bo said that all men talk, but few have the art of conversation.Pioneer [ Press.

Lot us suppose the mental powers grad ually diminished, while the bodily powers remain unimpaired. Suppose that pro c?8s continued, until the mind no longer troubles itself about unseen things, but is csntent with drawing inferences from actual present sensations, so that the look ing forw ard?the taking thought for the morrow, which is the principal source of human mental suffering?ceases to exist. You then approach tho consti tution of one of the higher mammalia. It is a constitution in which the ohief sources of human pleasure remain un touched, while the chief sources of hu man pains are either removed or dimin ished. In such a constitution, as com pared with man, tho reduction in total pleasures should be relatively small, while the reduction in total pains should be relatively large. Grant to an animal so constituted un stinted food, and it ought in theory to be happier than a human being, the limita tion in its pleasures being more than counterbalanced by far greater limitation in its pains. Imagine a graminivorous quadruped with limitless pasture and you have a state of things in which you ought to find the maximum of happiness of which the organization is capable. Granted that the totality of its pleasures would not equal the totality of human pleasures, by far more would the totality of its woes fall short of the totality of human woes. If suoh an animal can not taste tho pleasures of the knowledge of good and ovil, neither has it to taste the mis eries of poverty aud loneliness, of loss of wife or child, ef failure Ir business, of knowing not whore to procure food or where to lay its head. The problem how to make both ends meet never vexes the mind of the ruminant; monotony has no terrors for the ox; no fear oppresses it of another's rivalry; no jealousy of another's success. Even when disease and decay overtake it it knows nothing of that which make.i disease terrible to man? the knowledge that it must end in u separation from those whom he loves.? Nineteenth Century. Extravagance and Poverty. Mr. Zig Zag spends $1,000 a wesk in en tertaining on his yacht, does he?

Miss Flyaway sports five dresses a day in the spacious ballroom of the West End hotel, aud the precious stones, that dance and sparkle in her ears and the gorgeous necklace that rises and falls with the heavings of her bosom are esti mated at the sum of an old-time fortune, but, nevertheless, with bare feet, scuflling through tho dusty roads of Long ?ranch, I saw with my own eyes a w?sran, 75 years of age, with but one slazy garment between her and the ocean breezes, ex tending, as she stood timidly and Irreso lutely, a veined and shrivelled hand, shaking with the palsy, and begging for a cent. Men and women appeal every day in every week to the publl?, through the col umns of tho daily papers for something on which they can stand, for some werk on which they can build a hope.

Tho Writing of tho Stars. The marvelous nature of star photo graphs is keenly appreciated by Mr. R. A. Proctor, tho English astronomer, who says: "I know not how it muy bo with others, but I flud myself strangely moved by photographic records of the heavenly bodies. To see on a small area of photo graphic film the ripple marks of light waves which have traveled across the il limitable depths of interstellar space, tak iug years or ceuturies ou their way, to close their career by writing down their record for the astronomers on our tiny earth?this, surely, among the most moving achievements of the scienoe of our day." Describing the process of engraving n zincographic plate, by sunlight, from the star-made negative, he concludes: "Thus was an engraving formed by the action of the stars and onr sun alone?or, remem bering that our sun is himself a star, we may say that the zincographic plate from which charts ure printed was the work of the stars only! No human hand has touched the disk-shaped hollows by which each individual star has recorded its place,"?Arkansaw Traveler. An Unusual Occurrence.

Ex-Governoi Alexander II. Stephens, and have been postal clerk on different railroads since 18G8. For ten years I have been a sufferer from a cancer on my face, which grew worse until the discharge of matter became tirofuse and very offensive. i became horoutjhry disgusted with blood purifiers and pronounced then, humbugs, as 1 had tried many without relief. Finally'l was induced to use B. B. B., Which was about the 1st of February, and continued its use until the latter part of April. The offensive discharge decreased at once and the hardness around the cancer disappeared. It improved my general health and 1 rapidly gained flesh and strength. The discharge gradually de creased and the cancer became less and less in size until nothing remains except a scar to tell the talc of a once, dangerous cancer. All who have seen me since 1 have com menced the use of 13. U. I>. bear testimony of my great improvement, and the scar on my face shows that it cured the cancer. I find that 13. IJ. 13. comes squarely up to what it is recommended, and I cannot say too much in praise of this wonderful medi cine. I have tried them all but 13. 13. 13. stands at the top as a blood purifier. The above is copied from the Athens, (Ga.) Banner-Watchman, being the volun teer language of Mr. James A. Greer, which Editor Gantt indorses : "Mr. Greer is an honest, upright citizen of .Athens, who had a bad cancer, and his numerous friends thought that lie could not live very long, as the cancer was grad ually sapping the foundation of his con stitution, hut now looks well and hearty. 3 Against 18.
