I.oor INTO space.

A young man whose eyes had been
troubling him consulted New York
oculist what you want to do" said
the specialist, sis to take trip every
day on the ferry or in New Jersey,
Leg Island-any place where you can
ste long distances Look up and down
the river, across fields or, if the worst
comes to the worst, go on the top of a
skyscraper and sean the horizon from
that point. The idea Is to get dis
lance. You use your eyes great deal
and always at close range. You can't
use them any other way in town Even
when not reading or writing the vision
is limited by small rooms ana narrow
streets. No matter in what direction
you look, there IS blank wall not far
away to shut off sight"

Home Consumption Nurses.

Commissioner of Health Dixon of
Pennsylvania has inaugurated a cam
paign against tuberculosis involving a
house-to-house inspection and instruction
by visiting nurses, who will go to the
home of every person applying to the
State Dispensary for treatment. 1t will
be the duty Of the visiting nurses to in
struct the patient and the patient's fam
lily how to obtain the requisite amount of
fresh air, the most desirable foods, and
how to conduct themselves so as to avoid
infection. Every member of household
in which a consumptive lives will be in
spected, and where there is a sign of iii
health the suspected person will be per-
suaded to adopt precautionary measures.
In this way 1t Is hoped the State will
be able to check the spread OF 'the great
white plague" by discovering hundreds
of cases In the early stages when a cure
is probable. The difficulty which has
been experienced in sanitarium work
heretofore is that cases are not reached
until they are too far advanced to be
susceptible of cure.
