Pacific ight for Bad Ewes.

One new reason why California's climate
proves SO beneficial to health seekers has
recently been set forth by n wel-known
physician there. He says that the many
tourists who visit the Land Of Sunshine
every year are suffering from nervous pros
traitor and other disorders. which have
their origin in unsupported errors OF vision.
and that the trip 10 the Pacific Coast bene-
fits them by disclosing to them the cause
Of their trouble.
~ brilliant light of that sunny country
Immediately affects eyes which have dis
moved to consult an oculist. He relieves
the strain on the visual organs. and in so
doing causes the flight. of a host of other
comfort, headache, melanchoiia. sleepiess-
less and incidentally a testy temper. which
had been caused by these ills and others
from which the invalid had been suffering.
