only esse entail to the appearance, COM
fort and necessities of man, but In these
delicate organs are represented all the
TISSUES of the body. Intimately con-
nected with the brain and with the en-
tire nervous sysNm. the eyes are of
more than ordinary import tance, and too
much consideration canno OF be given to
their care and preservation. The eyes
arc subject TO numerous dI seases, some
pervertIng vision, some ,ca using cOntin-
ual distress, while the eXcr uciating pain
and virulence of others do, if neglected,
even tually shut out light forever and
may, under certain conditions, be fol-
lowed by nervous affections often end
ing in insanity and not unfrequently in
the loss of lite.

trouble of the eyes are inflammation of
the Orbital cavity. cellular tissues and

erysipelas, tumOrs, assesses, ulcers,

larly weak, watery and scrOfulOus sore
eyes. All of these disorders yield read
