But if the blind man's attention be distracted by something conspicuous in the appearance of the other, such as lamp black on his eyelids, a mole, or a scar, the feeling of dissatis faction, which is fatal to the complete effect of the envious glance, is certain to arise. This theory that the glance may be neutralized or avoided by some blot or imperfection is the basis of many of the popular remedies or prophylactics invented with the object of averting its in uence.
