Do you Have'you ever paused to you not, al one time or another, had causo to doubt the perfect safety of your eyes? they ever feel sore after a speH of close work, aching or smarting, ov maybe feeling as if some sand was lodged behind the lids? Do not, in reading, find that the print suddenly "goos misty" and confused, but becomes clear again after closing the eyes for a moment? Is it necessary for you to hold the book or'ncwspaper further from the eyes than do you need a stronger lifiht? Do you find you cannot'afford to let this slip. No man or woman of today can afford to rest content with anything short of the best possible vision. Conditions oC labor are so exacting, and the demands for efficiency so insistent; that a handicap like bad vision bids fair to overwhelm those whom it affects. These defects can be corrected.

Thousands of-peoplo arc today being kept out of their rightful sphere by bad vision. Their natural ability is spoiled b'y bad vision, and often they do not'rcalizc it. Defective sight is insidious, bqcause it never loaves always there, always-limiting your understanding and injuring your work unless it is corrected by moans of suitable Glasses. Short sight, long sight and old sight affect of an enormous number of their vision and muddling their work. Astigmatism is another common trouble which is probably the cause of more than half the headaches with which civilized mankind is afflicted.

After remaining in London for weeks, following the landing of steamer, the. young women in Miss Wilcox'u parly went to Southhampton, and from there' wore on an English hospital ship which conveyed them across the English Channel.

Misn Wilcox says: "Many of tho moRt pit i fill cases we have are due to shell shock. is difficult to describe I poor victims. The however, are nervous wrecks.

The "Tommies' are the most appreciative men you ever saw; and it surely makes a person's heart bleed to seo t)io poor boys como In linlf crnzeri and to put them in bed in a lout and see them act as if lltey were In paradise. The boys have lold mo so many things about tho front and their experiences in the trencher that it seems impossible to begin to believe it all. Why cannot this 'horrible slaughter' be slopped? These Rboll shock cases yield (o medica treatment but rarely, and the vic- tima will go through Ufo norvouf and broken In health, indeed, ii iiioy live at all, have of tun heart: the big guns oh the- battle front from our hospital us they rip the lines of the anemy.
