Eyes Strained, Nervous System Shattered and
Brain Affected, the Patient then
Becomes q Wreck.
From the Leader, Cleveland, Ohio.

"A dressmaker, you know, Is by the very
nature Of her work compelled to overtax
herself in many ways. This Is especially
true of the eyes and nerves, and therefore the
brain and almost every other organ of the
body. Very often dressmaker must work
by lamp or gaslight and thus an undue
strain is imposed on her optic nerves. The
result of this over.&ension with me was q
constant and severe headache, lassitude, loss
Of appetite, and loss of sleep. Being in that
condition, my work was naturally performed
in perfunctory manner, and for q while /
was compelled to rest entirely. While bend.

The Zone Of Fire in Cuba.

It can be truthfully said of the whole
province of Matanzas that it resembles
nothing 80 much az a great ash heap.
And the same is true of the three other
western provinces. But there was ra.
dius of five miles around the city OF
Mantanzas that had not been destroyed
in January. This had been pointed
out as the zone of fcultivation. where some
day, some remote mama, the land
would be allotted to the paci6cos. and
seed be given them to plant. But finally
more cruel counsel prevailed, and in
March the destruction of all this prop.
erty, and even the growing crops, was
decreed by General Molinas, the military
governor. The last time stood on the
summit of Monsterrat there were three
great fires burning to the right and to
the left of me, and before me. Every.
thing was on fire except the sea, which
cannot be made to burn, even by royal
decree. And for q week Mantanzas,
usually 80 bright and clear, was as smoky
and sooty as Birmingham.
Here in Mantanzas, as elsewhere at
every station of RECOMMENDATION, I
noticed that the people are without any
organization whatever, and they seem
to be lacking absolutely in the Anglo.
Sxon faculty of combination by which
they might possibly make their wants
and their grievances heard. They have
no committees and no selectmen. Each
family starves alone. Not but that they
are not very kindly and charitable the
one to the other. They are helpful
to one another to surprising degree,
but they do not organize for selfpreser.
