STRAIN ON THE EYES.
Children at School Are Inclined TO Have
etho Academy Headaches"

Children at School Are Inclined TO Have
"tho Academy Headache."
One Of the common causes Of pain
above the brows is the overuse Of the
eyes and the strain Of accommodation
in constantly looking at near objects.
In its transient form it may be famil-
far to some as the result Of q visit to
a picture gallery, but In moro senses
than one this may be known as 'thO
academy headache, for if it is tempora.
rily developed in a morning spont at
Burlington House it is even more
readily excited and permanently estab-
hshed among the children at the board
schools and the girls Of the high schools.
Seventy-two per cent Of the children Of
today are said to be sufferers from de-
fective eyesight, generally in the direc-
tion Of difficulty in seeing near objects
clearly. Headache is almost always pres
eit in tho cases of the poor little crea-
lures, whose bodies are starved while
their minds are overfed in the scramble
for educational grants.
The ocular headache Is often cock
istent with the anmmio headache, ospe-
cially in growing girls Here we find
frontal or supraorbital pain, due to eye
strain, associated with the vertical pain
felt all over the top Of the head, which
Is scharacteristio of bloodlessness. Plenty
Of wholesome food, fresh air and out OF
door exercise will help to combat the
an@mia, while the practice Of looking
at distant objects, and, alas tho use Of
appropriate spectacles may relieve the
headache of eyestrain, but reading,
writing and sowing will permanently
damage tho sight, so that for the sake
Of education and in the struggle for life
