DERHAPS the most wonderful product of
L the vegetable world is cellulose. which
is at the same time about the commoncSt
thing in that world, being the material of
which the cell walls OF every plant is con-
struCtcd. So eminent an authority as Dun
can has estimated that CcllulOSc constitutes
onc-third OF the plant life Of the globe
one Of the most wonderful qualities Of
ccllulo,c is that, ike gold and Silver, it is
capable Of resisting the effects Of time. When
pure, il neither rustS nor decays, but en-
durcs through generation after generation.
II is a curious fact that, as common as ii
is, cclluloSc is one Of the least understood Of
substances. Every bit Of knowledge that
We add 10 our store Of information concern
ing cclluloSc generally leads to the establish
mcnt Of some new industry. The uses TO
which it has already been put have resulted
in enormous benefits to man.
Linen is almost pure ccllulosc; 50 IS cot

substances are the same, their structure dill

How to Save the Eyes"
is the title of a

At last the good news can be published.
1t is predicted that within few years eye
glasses and spcctacles will be 50 scarce that
they will be regarded as curOsities.
Throughout the civilized world there has,
for several years, been a recognized move
mcnt by educated medical men, particularly
eye experts, toward treating sore, weak or
strained eyes nationally The old way was
to fit a pair OF glasses as soon as the eyes
we're found to be strained. These glasses
were nothing better than clutches. They
never overcome the trouble, but merely give
a little relief while being worn and they
make the eyes gradually weaker. Every
wcarcr Of eyeglasses knows that he might IS
well expect to cure rheumatism by leaning
upon a walking stick.
The great masses Of sufferers from eye
strain and other durable optic disorders have
been miscd by those who were making for
tunes out of eyeglasses and spcctaccs.
