ONE EYE ABOUT BLIND.

MR.. GEO. SHEETS WHO LIVES 6 MILES
NORTH Fast OF LOGAN, OHIO,
NEAR MAX, P. o.
My eyes have been growing quite
weak during the past few years. In
April / noticed the sight in my right
eye was nearly gone. Some days !
was entirely blind In that eye. 1no-
ticed aleo that my left eye seemed
tired and weak and the vision in II
was getting quite poor. 1 mad Mr..
and Mis-. Lingerfleld examine my
eyes and fit glasses to them that
surely have done world of good. i.
AS can now see quite plain at q
distance and see to read the finest
print which l have not been able to
do at all. 1 appreciate very much
the benefit received from glasses
and state same hoping that others
with defective eyes may be prompt
to consult these opticians and receive
good as have done.

iianna's Farewell.

The report comes from Cleveland
that Senator Hanna has retired
from business.'' The business al
luded to is not his most imp ,rtant
means Of obtaining a livelihood.
1t has no reference to politics. 1t
lie merely the business which poll
tics has helped him to secure, and
his retirement from it is on paper.
The case is not serious, but may
be worthy of some comment.
We are informed that Mr.. Hanna
is in a position to take vacation of
10 years, il necessary, and devote
all his time to politics. What
kind Of vacation that would be,
let those say who have most fa-
miliarity with political diversions.
1t is said that Mr.. Hanna's steam
ship lines, his iron ore business,
his coal mines and his street rail-
ways have all been disposed of, Z"
and thus he is said to be "unham-
pered." Y M q
We are glad to know that Mr..
Hanna has been relieved of all bust
ness cares. As the coiner of the
phrase, "We know our business, :"
he ought to know when it is time
to retire. That time with Hanna
is when 1t is necessary 10 ostensi-
bly, dislodge himself from certain
interests In order 70 fool the public
and give himself more time to de-
vote to such nefarious schemes as
the one that made him senator
and the one now relied upon to re-
elect him. BTsffspt vbfFl
Meanwhile the suspicion grows
that the Doodle senator's retirement
from business and political cares
will be very near one another in
point of time. One may precede
the other trifie, but both will oc7.

Thousands of dollars daily ex-
pended in the United States for pre-
scrIptions and remedies for head
aches aud nervousness is simply
money thrown away.
4 The old stereotype diagnosis of
many physicians that headaches in
variably come from catarih or weak
stomach has cost many sufferers
many dollar, with no satisfying re-
cults whatever.
Ninety-nine out Of every hundred
headache cases come either directly
or indirectly from defective eyes,
which also IN many instances is the
cause of that nauseating feeling Of
the stomach and the treatment OF
which has cost many persons hun
dreds of dollars, believing II to be the
direct and natural cause of terrible
headaches, where a pair of glasses,
at nominal price, properly fitted,
would have permanently overcome
the entire combination of trouble
nervousness headaches and nausea
besides restoring and preserving the
vision for the future.
An astigmatIc headache Is usually
located on top or at the back of the
head, extending toward the base Of
the brain, down the neck and often
into the shoulders. while the hyper
metropic Cor far sight) headache is
located In the front Of the head, Of
ten through the temples and direct
ly back of the eyes.
The more illiterate class of people
are Invariably accusing youngsters
of wearing glasses for style. The
factp are that to every person wear.
ing them for style. there are at least
l 600 perSons needing them who do
not wear them.
The question Ia frequently asked: |:
Why Is it that so manv people wear
glasses nowadays2 The answer is: /:
Progression in civilization.
Thirty-five years ago no such thing
as overcoming headaches with glass
es was ever heard of; the sight of a
child wearing them was a curiosity {;
but things have changed since that
time and the more Intelligent people
have awakened tn the fact that head
aches, nervousness, dizziness, sink
Ing spells, nausea excessive winking
and watering of the eyes can be
overcome by glasses for both old and
young, and single complaint of a
six-year-old results In hurried visit
to some we'll known specialist In the
art OF fitting glasses.
The up-to-date school teachers
take upon themelves nowadays the
duty ofreporting to parents all cases
Of children whose vision seems de-
fective, knowing full we'll the proper
correction of pair OF glasses VIII
enable the pupil to advance more
rapidly In school work and preserve
eyes for the future.
All Ofthese troubles can be entire
iy overcome by the wearing Of pro-
perly corrected glasses, without
medical treatment.
