The CARE oE The EYES

Defective eyesight is now more the
rule than the exception, and we can
scarcely wonder at this when we con-
slider the careless way in which the
eyes are treated. Even an infant IN
these modern days Is allowed to lie
with the fierce sunlight blazing away
directly on its face, or in the house
the same lack of caution is noticeable
in regard to gas, lamp or freight.
Many children and older people regu-
larly sleep in rooms which on summer
mornings are in a blaze of light. Their
beds are so arranged that they face the
glare from the window, and although
we all love the glorious sunshine at
proper seasons, 1t should not be al
lowed to injure the sight. Dark shades
should be the rule in our bedrooms;
these really afford subdued light,
white ones do not. If possible, the bed
should be placed in such way that
il does not face the window. II this Is
impossible, and it Is so in some rooms,
the bed should be made up "the wrong
way about" the pillows arranged at
what is usually the bottom end of the
bedstead. You will say this looks odd,
and il does strike a stranger as un-
common. but it must be remembered
that a bedroom is intended for rest and
repose. and is not to be regarded as a
showroom.
To many people of weak sight, 1t Is
absolute torture to sit facing the WIN
dow at meal times. Those with strong
sight do not realize this, and invariably
mt visitors at the side of the table
opposite the window. l think hostesses
knowing of their friends weakness
should unostentatiously arrange tnat
a more congenial seat is given them.
The strongest eyes cannot long sur
vive the test of reading, writing or
sewing in a strong sunlight, and equal

occupation in q dim light.

preston and as regards the strength

order to avoid one being Immediately
before the sight. Some wells make

ing. as we'll as injurious to the eyes.
In the case of dust or grit entering
the eve. 1t should be removed as quick
ly as possible. Some people treat the
matter very lightly and think the grit
will work out by itself This may be
the case sometimes, but 1t is always
better to have 1t removed at once De
fore Inflammation sets in. Very often
II is possible to remove the particle

chief, but IL this fails, a druggist will

glasses at haphazard without the pre-
liminary and necessary caution OF

MANY ARE*. ASKED
ProgressiVes and Regulars To-
vited to Meet Roosevelt

Washington, May Shelters i76z:
Colonel Roosevelt have been received
by many members of congress in the
last few days asking them to meet him
in Oyster Bay Immediately after his
return to the United States. These
letters have come to progressives and
regulars alike and to members of both
houses who have been closely identi-
fed with legislative and political mat
ters in the present and former ses-
sions OF congress.
It is apparent from the character of
the letters received in Washington
that the former president desires to
discuss in detail the legislative and
political developments of the last year
with the men identified with every
phase of affairs in congress. He has
not swerved thus far from his deter
mination to refrain from public utter
ances upon American politics until his
return to this country.
There is every reason to believe that
an endorsement of either side of the
Republican factional controversy will
be forthcoming from Mr.. Roosevelt
after his return to America. His earli-
est speeches will be those made on
his Western trip, when he will speak
at Cheyenne, >Wyo.; Kansas City, Chi
caro-. St Paul and other points.

Attorney Vertrees Addresses investi-

Washington, May 29.-"Mr. Ballfn-

upon him by reason of the disappoint-
ment and revenge of men incapable of
generous impulses and sentiments"
exclaimed his defender, Attorney John
J. Vertrees, during his summing up
argument before the Ballinger-Pin-
chot investigating committee.
For more than two hours of the final
public hearing of the committee Mr..
Vertrees addressed himself to the sub
ject of the Cunningham Alaskan coal
claims in support of the contention
that there was nothing in Mr.. Balm
gers connection with them either as
commissioner of the land Office, as Sec
rotary of the interior or as private
citizen that justified criticism.
Former Secretary Garfield and for
mers Forester Pinchot were bitterly
excoriated by Mr.. Ballinger's attorney.
