many diseases of the nervous order have
become traceable to defective eye sight
and glasses are now made to correct
the sight and thereby help nature to
restore health to the sufferer The
science of optics is therefore being
etudied more and more with reference
10 health and disease, and optical ap-
1Iiances more and more recognized as
important prOphylactic and therapeutic
agents. In view of these facts it is
gratifying to be able to state that
Walla Walla has the distinction of
having in the person of Professor G.
G. Scheller an expert eye specialist

fed the excellent credentials accorded

Dr. Schneider makes retinoscope ex-
aminations and makes no mistakes or
blunders; absolute certainty is his
rule.
This instrument is for the purpose Of
measuring the retroactive powers of the
eye from the interior and is the COM
petcd result of the patient, painstaking
Iabors of the most noted scientific and
skilled ocuIists in the world. DIR. G.
G. Schneider is the most scientific and
painstakinG ocular refractiOnist in the
west. In his examinations of the eye
he employs all the practical instru-
ments and tests, and uses every avail
able means to give his patients the
very best service that skill and optical
science can produce His optical de-
partment is lighted and operated by
electricity and he examines eyes eve
nings as we'll as in day time.
His knowledge of the eye and errors
of refraction enables him to correct
any and all eye defects without re-
course to the use of disagreeable and
dangerous mydriatic and cyclopegic or
drops He grinds lenses and has ev-
cry facility for prompt as we'll as ac-
curate work No case too difficult. The
high class of optical work DR.. Schneider
does you cannot have done outside of
Walla Walla except in eastern cities.
Some of the symptoms of eye strain
are headaches. dizziness, mental irrit-
ability. dullness, neuralgia, pain in the
base of the brain. dull aching in the
back of the eyes and forehead, eyes
water and blur in the wind or when
reading by lamp light, inability to
maintain clear vision at a distance, or
nearby; twitching of the eyelids, in
famed, sore eyes or eyelids, etc.
Any of the above are symptoms of
serious ocular arrangements and an
optical specialist should be consulted
at once. who is competent to pre-
scribe correcting lenses which will re-
lieve the eye strain.
The suffering of many school chill
dren with eye strain is not realized
by parents to the eXent that 1t pre-
walls. Children often fall behind in
their studies and are childed for lack
of interest and called dull. In known
cases they have been scOlded for dull
ness until they really believed them
selves lacking in capacity to compre-
bend their lessons and have become
discouraged. In such cases, where the
sight has been found to be defective
and the proper remedy applied in the
use of suitable glasses, the student has
regained hope and ability to study, and
not infrequently eXcelled in studies be-
lore found hard and impossible OF
