EYE TROUBLES
Caused by Improper Food.

Most people would never think OF
connecting eye disease with the food
they eat. But when we remember
that every part OF the body-every or
gan-is nourished by the blood and
the blood is made OF the food we eat,
II seems reasonable to trace even eye
troubles to food.
An. Y. man had an interesting ex
perience at one Of the great hospitals
in that city that may benefit persons
who have chronic eye trouble. He
writes:

cars to load under a shoot when one
of them got away and struck the shoot
with such force as to knock it down,
striking him on the head and pushing him
under the car, the front trucks passing
over his right arm before the car could
be stopped. The unfortunate man was
taken from under the wheels by his fell
low workmen and brought at once in a
sleigh TO the Miners hospital, where il
was found that his injuries were so great
that II was necessary to amputats the
arm at the shoulder The men who saw
