Care Of the Ewes.

Within the netx few weeks mil
lions of children will be started
to school in this country, and
preparations are already making
to fit them for entry. Clothing is
being put in order, and mothers
are busy everywhere fitting out
offspring for the coming session.
1t is probable, however, that the
most important item in the whole
matter will be entirely overlook
ed. Youthful pupils will be re
quired to examine carefully the
small and usually poorly printed
maps used in the school rooms,
with no regard whatever to possi-
BILE defects in eyesight. A Phila-
delphia physician in an article in
the Medical Journal of that city
declares that many of the cases
of vomiting in school children is
not due, as is generally supposed,
to trouble originating In the stom-
ach, but to strain on the eyes.
which could readily be remedied
by the use of properly selected
glasses. Headaches, from which
children suffer during the school
term, and which disappear during
vacation, are also probably due
more to eye strain than TOLL ven
tilation of school rooms, to which
the illness is usually ascribed.
Children who grow irritable, ner-
vous or rebeIlious, and who have
dizzy spells, whose stomachs are
in constant disorder, if otherwise
in good health, are in generally
suffering from imperfect eyes.
which call for examination by an
oculist, or at least by a physician
who has made some study of the
eye.
The fact that the child does not
complain of pain in the eyes does
not indicate that they are in per-
feet condition. The optic nerves
and other details connected with
visual functions are extremely
delicate apparatus, and can not be
too carefully treated. If the
child needs glasses he or she
should have them, and if the par
ent is not able to provide this
protection to the eyes, it would
be better to withdraw the child
from school. Education is a good
thing, but eyesight is much more
important. Parents and school
teachers, especially the latter, for
the parents of school children are
not always intelligent, while
teachers should be, can not guard
too carefully the interests Of their
little charges in this matter, for
inattention may wreck the entire
life of the helpless youth.
In public schools, at least, it

STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS.

Further declines were recorded IN yesterdays
stock market sales representing the operations
Of traders who desired to take profits and trans
actions by professional element that, for the
time was interested In the short side Of specu-
latton- There was little important liquidation
that IS selling for the account Of the big pools
and individual operators of large financial
sources. while there was no indication In the
character of trading that the movement toward
lower level foreshadowed the beginning of
sustained decline in values. The fact that on
the decline large offerings were taken by sub
stantial market interests encouraged the idea
that the men who for so long period have
been operating for higher prices were still be-
levers in the bull side and confident that prices
would work TO better range than any yet re-
corded IN the course of the next few weeks.
Advocates of lower quotations may believe that
their success in the last two days will be fol-
lowed by q long and active bear market but in
the current position Of speculation and in the
conditions affecting the actual value Of invest
ment securities there is no good reason for en-
thusiasm over the chances Of important
campaign for cheaper prices According TO the
opinion Of the best Informed market observers
the current reaction merely will serve to en-
courage further accumulation Of securities by
strong market interests. The market reached
a position ten days ago that warranted turns
the short side of the account, and the fact
that speculation developed two sides helped
rather than injured the prospects Of further
period of bull activity.
In the last hour of trading there were sharp
rallies throughout the list, and as consequence
many of the early losses were recovered. The
Improvement, however, did not last final deal

instance. showing loss averaging about 124
at yesterdays close. against 127.16 on March
il. In the industrial list however, the average
price for the leading issues shows only a small
loss from the best figures of the year. An ad-
ternoon was a factor In he late decline. while
stronger rates for sterling exchange also con-
trdbuted TO the weakness in securities.

OUTSIDE SECURITIES.

The market for outside securities showed an
irregular tendency almost from the start and con-

mediately followed on heavy realizing Trading

the business concentrated in five or six of the
