Eyestrain causes •headache,

Other things may give relief
but perfectly adapted glasses
are the only cure.
The most important thing
about a pair of glasses is the

fits them.
If I cannot help you, I say

debentures for a term not exceeding
thirty years and to bear interest at
such rate as Council may deem expedi-
ent for the following purposes:—(a)
$12,000.00 for the payment of the float-
ing indebtedness of the said Corpora-
tion; (b) $1,200.00 for the settlement of
a damage claim against the said Cor-
poration, (2) " And to permit the -
said Corporation of the 'Town of Wing --
ham to invest it's Sinking Funds in any

or By-laws that may be passed in

and partly through the falldre of a
Manufacturing Industry to repay mon-
ies loaned to it by the said Corporation
