Nature provides a safeguard to a manner somewhat similar to that of the water-cooled motor. Transparent fluids are circulated within the eye, and.the anterior surface of the eye is bathed with fluid coining down from, the tear gland above the eye. The peculiar special function of the eye heut require# transparency, and excessive de stroys thst quality; the loss of trans parency Is fatal to the function of that special organ, even though Its forsa and strength are fully regained. i Pride o l Possession “Every man U entitled to his own opinion."

That prob Vein Vs made more difficult because amny people do not know how to quallfy themselves as "renters" or borrowers.
