SEEING IS BELIEVING
We commonly place more faith in
our eyes than in any one of our oth-
er special senses. Our eyes may de-
ceive us on occasions but we are gen-
erally right in believing what we see.
The eyes are among our most preci-
ous possessions from the point of
view of usefulness and too, because of
their ability .to express feeling, they
are of natural beauty and attractive-
ness.
The eye is compared to the camera
with its box, shutter, lens and sensi-
tive plate of film. The eye is protect-
ed, excepting in front, by bone, par-
ticularly the overhanging brow which
wards off many blows. Further pro-
tection is given by a tough outer
membrane. The iris, or pupil, acts as
a shutter, controlling the amount of
light passing to the lens, which in
turn, is focused by muscles so as to
throw a clear image on the retina , or
sensitive plate at the back of the eye-
ball. The image causes nerve impuls-
es to .pass from the retina along the
opti nerve to the brain; thus we be-
come conscious of the image that has
been registered on the retina.
When you weep, you blow your
nose. The lachrymal gland secretes
tears. The tears lubricate the mem-
brane (conjunctiva) which lines the
eyelids so that they open and close
smoothly. The eyeball is washed in.
tears by the movement of the eyelids.
The tears drain to the inner corner of
the eye and from there down a tube
into the nose. An excess of tears in
response to certain emotions and so
the flow into the nose is increased,
followed by the natural stimulation
which calls for the use of the hand-
kerchief.
Sometimes the lens "does not''focus
properly and we have people who can
not sec clearly things ,which are close
to them; others have difficulty in hav-
ing a clear vision of things at a dis-
tance. In such cases, the focussing
mechanism is under constant strain
because it is always trying to do what
it cannot do. Properly fitted eye-
glasses meet this situation, - relieves
the strain and secures for the person
clear vision.
As we grow older the lens tends to
harden. This condition (presbyopia):.
is normal with advancing years, which
accounts for the fact that rriost'. peo-
ple,' after forty, require glasses, at
least for reading. The glasseswill`
need to be changed from time ,to time
as the condition of the lens alters 'At'
such examinations the eyes' may re-
veal other condition of the eyes
or the body, which is one, reason•eye
examination should be made by a phy-
sician.
Close work means tension:. .The
eyes require rest. When doing close
work, look up and out from time to
time; the eyes are built for distant
work .and doing this gives them a rest.
Use the eyes only with adequate light.
Never poke at your own eyes or the
eyes of any other person.

sociation, 184 College St., Toronto,

writes:—
"For years I suffered from lum-
bago. During wet ` weather, I could
only turn in bed with great effort. and
pain, I was so stiff and ached so notch:
Two 'years ago I had both lumbago`
and sciatica, and crawled about for a
fortnight, feeling very sorry for my-
self and looking 103 instead of 33.
Someone said, 'Try Kruschen Salts,'
so I did, and I have taken them, ever
since, with the result that I hardly
ever get a hint of lumbago these.
days." -(Mrs.) G. P. C.
Why is it that Kruschen is so ef-
fective in keeping lumbago at bay?
Simply because it goes right down to
the root of the trouble and: removes
the cause, which is an :impure blood-
stream. The six salts in Kruschen
keep the bloodstream pure and, vigor-
ous by promoting a clockwork regu-
larity of all the organs of elimination.
