INJURIOUS TO EYESIGHT.
OeuIists at Chicago Condemn Incan-
descent Lights.

Chicago, Feb. 14-Members Of the ulu-
minating Engineer Society Of Chicago
were told by oculists last night that the
much-talked-of advance in methods Of IL
Elimination introduced in the last century,
has been in many ways a retrOgrade
They strongly condemned IN
candescent bulb lights, and commended
the old-time kerosene lamp.
A paper by DR., II. H. Seabrook, Of New
York, was read. in which he said:
Our country leads the world. apparently in the
brhancy Of its artificial illumination, and certainly
leads the world IN ocular exhaustion, discomfort and
congestion. When gas came into general use these
troubles began to increase. and further increase
was in evidence as the incandescent electric lamp
came more and mOTe into fashion.
Both here and abroad oculsts agree that the keTo-
sene burner is the least harmful artificial illumi-
nant The incandssCent lamp has given rise TO more
chronic eye degeneration and disturbances than any
other light used for neag work
All agreed that by a little care the In
bulb could be made almost as
harmless as the kerosene lamp. They ad-
vised the use Of illumination by reflection
student lamps, and ground glass bulbs.
