Interesting is the case of little Ii

daughter of Mrs. Mary g. Burnett. OF
Forest Hill. for she is able to study
her lessons at school with comfort
for the first time In three years. and
the child and the mother are happy.
'Iinettas eyes have troubled her
for three years. said Mrs. Burnett.
IT hurt her TO read or to study and
the pains in her eyes and headaches
became almost unbearable. She kept
on going to school, though. because
she wants to learn just as much as she
can. 50 when l saw what the st. Agnes
specialist, 2lo East Grace street, was
doing for others. l said to myself he
might do the same thing for my lit
tie girl, and ! brought her down to
see him. He told me her trouble was
eyestrain, and he certainly has done
a fine thing for her. Since she put on
his method and prescription glasses
she has had no headaches or pains: 1t

BOYS AND GIRLS
SING AND RECITE
Novel and Interesting Program
Rendered in Fredericksburg
by Sundav-School Children.

Especial to The Richmond Nirginian
FREDERICKSBURG. VA, oct. Al
An exceedingly novel and interesting
program was rendered Sunday night
at the Baptist Young Peoples Union
service. The service was In charge
of the primary class, and more than
one hundred little boys and girls from
four to seven years of age took part
Their exercises consisted of solos
ehoruses. recitations and motion songs
and In each number the children
showed the greatest proficiency They
had been trained by Miss Lizzie l..
Proctor and her corps OF efficient
teachers. The primary department Of
the Baptist Sunday school has in 1t
about 200 children and eight teach
ers. The program Sunday night was
clear proof of the care with which
the teachers train the children. and
too much credit cannot be given Miss
Proctor for her untiring efforts In this
department.
Probably the highest compliment
paid the service was the fact that the
church was crowded to the doors with
friends interested in the little ots.

THE immense numbers Of people

experience for the past two years
wherever I have gone. The reason is
a simple one. Il is because my medi.

but It is in fact the key 70 health.
The stomach is the very foundation OF
life. I attribute 90 per cent. OF all
sickness directly 20 the stomach.
Neither animals nor men can re-
