Not many years ago in London you could get five things for a penny—a farthing’s worth each of tea sugar, bread and butter —and the shopkeeper’s boot into the bargain. You will get most things that you require for your larder next Saturday at the. Methodist shop day sale. You -want the goods and the ladies want the money, so come and shake hands on it, and, if you’re feeling really generous, bring or send something saleable to help things along. A serious warning against the practice of sun-gazing was given recently by Lieut.-Colonel R. H. Elliott, at the Institute of Hygiene, London. Lecturing on “The Care of the Eyes,” he said that every time there was an eclipse numbers of people lost their eyesight through looking at the sun. Parents ought to warn their children of the danger of this practice.
