Handkerchief. Buy all you want (By James Shepard) About seventy-five years ago 1 was Aocidentally hit In the face bunch of burdock burrs, ~:~rn.u, particles weroe caught in one ©f my oyes where they remained tor Boveral days with a prospect of re- maining for a long time. An eyestone Was procured and place between the ball and 1id of my eye. I lay flat on my back with my eyes closed while the stone moved about as if it was a Hving creature. The tears flowed freely and when it was thought th Wio stone had been In my eye long enough, it was removed.

Would accomplish the same purpose, fs doubtless it would, though I find no #pecific mention of such an object other than the two herein before Damed. Cral’'s-stones are the same as crab’s- eyos. The latter is defined in John- sons’ dlctionary (edition of 1756) as “Whitish 'n, rounded on one slde and depr d on the other, not tho eye of any creature, nor do they ®long to the crab, but are produced by the common crawfish.” The cnlled bla-eyes or crab's-stones a cal ous concre varying In Welght from 1 to 12 grains. They are developed on elther side of the stom- gh of the European crawfish previous 6 the casting of the shell. They are supposed to be a deposit stored up for the calcification of the new shell aro generally defined as tha door or mouth pieco of the small- or wpecies of mollusks In the Turbin- sdas family All of mollusks in thia v ly operculum They pin‘s head are 10 thr v.
