n Has Many symptoms and May At
feet the Whole System.
Chief among the symptoms OF eye
strain are watering Of the eye, glu-
ing together of the eyelids on awaken
Ing in the morning, headache, the posi-
ton and character Of which vary with
each individual. 1t may be neuralgia
or it may be deeply seated. as was the
case with Wagner, the musician. who
was complaining constantly of 1.-THE
nerves of his eyes"
The headache is often replaced by
an Inflammation of the eyelids. espe-
cially in young and healthy persons,
who also have a little conjunctivitis.
with feeling Of tension or fullness In
the eyes which may become real pain
of dull aching character. the eyeballs
being very tender on pressure.
Sometimes there are vertigo and
sickness, with dyspepsia, palpitation
and even difficulty In breathing.
Sleeplessness is a very frequent symp-
tom, due in part to the excessive flow
Of blood to the brain and in part to the
low tone Of the whole nervous system.
The symptoms Of eye strain appear
sooner in those who lead a confined
and sedentary life, who follow occupa-
tons which need a constant use Of the
eyes in bad or unsuitable light and In
those who are debilitated from any
cause. The symptoms appear later In
those of coarser fiber, who pass much
of their time in the open air or who
follow occupations which do not need
prolonged use Of the eyes for CLOSE
work.-LondOn Lancet

Defeated by BAYFIELD,

The Washburn base ball team
iourneyed to Bayfield, last Sun
day afternoon where they played
during the afternoon with the
Bayfield, nine. The score was
13 to in favor of Bayfield, at
the close OF the contest. Allen
Boutin.of Bayfield, was on the
mound for the locals and pitched
good game but at times was
given rather ragged support by
the balance of the tie am. Elev-
en- errors were credited to the
Washburn team, three of which
let in six runs. Had it not been
for these errors the game would
have been a very interesting
one.
