'ROBERTS Having taken a con* of studies at the Detroit Optical Institute is prepared to fit all defects of vision. Astigmatism, Hypermetropia, Myopia, Presbyopia, or any compound defeet. Astigiratiem is due to irregular shape of the eye, and is usually congenital, but is often caused by inr- proparly fitted glasses. Many school children with tbie defect are called stupid, but with properly fitted glasses they maybecome tbe brightest of scholars. This is quite a common and dangerous defeat. Hyper- metropia is a malformation. which keeps the ciliary muscle in constant use, whereas in a normal eye it is at rest when looking at a distance. This defeat if neglected, may result in nervous depreseion and pain, and even prostration. Myopie is a diseased condition of the eye, whioh should be very carefully fitted to prevent an incrgase of the defect, and perhaps ulti- mate blindness.' Presbyopiteis a loss of accommoda- tion in the eye, which may cense cataract unleste cot- reeted by artlfloial aid.

The following illustration of ' a °WW1 spelling lesson and ber apt conclusion in regard to the orthography of the English language is taken from the New York Times; "Spell toes," said the mother, wlio was teaching her little daughter, 7 years old, to spell. "T -�-z e," answered the child. "No dear, that's not right. T -o -e -s spells; ice's." "But it sounds like t -O -Z -e. " , "I know it, but you cannot go by the sound." Then in order to enforce the proposi- tion, the mother called upon her daughter to spell froze, F -r -o -e -s," said the child. "No; you're wrong again. This time we do noel the z and spell the word r -o -z -e." • "Hub I" exclaimed the child. , Now spell rose," said the mother. The child hesitated. Finally she said, "I don't know whether to say r -o -z -e or r -o -e -s." "Spell it r -o -s -e," said the mother, "though there is another word pronounced just like it that's spelled r -o -e -s. That word is the name of the spawn of fishes." The child looked perplexed. "Just one word more," said the mother. "Tell Ime how you spell blows." "W011," said the little girl, who had bad • quite 'enough nonsense, as she viewed it, from her mother and had suddenly made up her mind to pay back in kind, "I spell it three ways. I spell it b -l -o -s -e for break- fast, b -l -o -e -e for dinner and b -l -o -z -e for supper." "I epell it b -i -o -w -s," said the mother. The child was silent for a minute as if wrapped in thought; then, looking up, she solemnly remarked, "I think, mamma, that the English language was made for -persons very, very well educated."

For years I was trobletl with Dear Sirs: periodical sick headaches, being affected usually every Sundity, and used all the re- medies that were advertised as cures, and was treated by almost every doctor in Guelph, but without any relief. One doctor told me it was caused by a, weak stomach, another said it was hereditary and incurable. I was induced by a neighbor to try Sloane Indian Tonic, and am happy fo say I did so. A few doses gave immediate relief, and one bottle and a half made a com- plete cure. This was three years ago and the head- aches have never returned. 1 was also troubled with asthma and nothing helped me like your Sloan'e Indian Tonic. I can heartily recornniend it to all, and will be glad to give any particulars to any one afflicted as I was. • W. C. Keogh.
