The Grip also, which has been so prevalent,
causes more headache and leaves the nerves
of the head in more weakened and diseased

THIS condition should nerer be neglected. Many

refraction." Dear me, that is very odd"
he exclaimed. ~ should like TO see that (;
do you think might venture to calf"
And call he did, and begged permission
to examine the young lady's eyes. The

eyes in clearer light. The problem grew
SO interesting thst he at length came TO
the conclusion to make IL life study.
