Says New York Physician
Here Is His Free Prescription.

aAany who wear glasses could dis
pense with them. Only ordinary care
Is necessary. The eyes of old and
young should be properly bathed night
and morning. This is more important
than cleansing teeth" says he and
then he goes on to say:
"1he following treatment is worthy
If fullest confidence. II is scientific,
immediately effective ana positively
harmless to the weakest of eyes. Go
to any drug store, get a tube of OPP
tona tablets, dissolve one in a two
ounce bottle of pure water and bathe
the eyes two to four times daily. What
is generally known as eye strain will
soon be banished while the muscles and
nerves are permitted to perform their
normal functions. 1t helps diseased
eyes and il keeps good eyes healthy;
II is absolutely harmless in every way;
does not smart Of burn, has a wonder
tui effect on granulated lids and is es-
peeially recommended for dull, bleary
OF CLASSY eyes. II helps all eyes and
sbotld be in every home for use in
emergency"
The following extracts are from let.
ters received from users of this pre-
scrjption:

in my eyes; it did me great deal of
good" +"
"My eyes have been failing for
years. / am sure Optona is doing them
good and shall continue its use. ,"
''Have only been using 0ptona
short time. My eyes are improving
wonderfully"
"I find Optona very satisfactory and
recommend it wherever 1 find an op-
pcrtlniiy. / find it very soothing"
"l We been benefited by Optona and
intend to follow the treatment.
"Have been using 0ptona for about
three months and it has greatly i'm

Many ether have made similar re.
ports. If your eyes bother you have
the above prescription filled; it may
do wonders for you. Do not become a
victim Of neglect. You perhaps value
your eyes more than any other organ,
therefore it's your duty to protect
them. This free prescription has given
relief TO thousands.

Many Attractive Articles May Be
Fashioned With Stenoiled Designs.
Dotted muslin makes convenient
material on which to stencil and is
something new along this line. The
dots take the color evenly and so do
not present any difficulty.
A set of furniture searfs stenciled in
a rose pattern Is particularly dainty
and appropriate for girls room.
Firmness can be impaired by lining
the scarfs with some color, deep
pink or green-in fact, any color which
will look well with the stenciling. The
lining should be basted on perfectly
smooth underneath the stencied goods
and then the top and lining scalloped
or hemmed together.
A pincushion and all sorts of dainty
bags and cases could be made.,o match
this set.
A dressing jacket and boudoir cap
made of the dotted material stenciled
in colors would be very attractive in
deed.

ington NAV learn something from it as to prompt and
effective action in economical and industrial affairs
Speaking recently at the opening of new railroad
buit by his government to develop and better farm life
the South Australian premier promised campaign OF
railroads and waterworks rrgation) to aid the farmer
Railroads and waterworks he said go hand in hand to-
ward development of the country. Farmers are the
backbone ofthe state therefore parliament must make
the life of those living in the country more bearabe The
proposed to make the taxation on the farm
ing community low possible in order that farmers
can get such conditions that they will be able to carry on
their industry untrammeed by outward disturbances
In connection with this policy, South Australia is
forging ahead rapidly agricultural nation Pubic
utilities are being used extensively to this end Mean
while New South Wales has appointed government en-
gneer to act as an advisory officer to visit irrigation
areas and private irrigation farms and to assist the
owners in arriving at the best method OF utilizing the
land and the water This officers services are given
free of cost by the to those who care to con-

the country to a high plane of success
The Australian and sister governments are going
further than any other governments in the world to en-

Our own government can learn something from them
along the line of effective action in improving rural
production.

I he Sin Of the Parent Against
the Child.
BY DOROTHY DIX.

In speech before the National
Association for the Study and
Education of Exceptional Chill
dren, DR.. Eaton said:
"The weakest spot in America
today is the home. This weakness
is due to the sins of American
parents toward their children.
These sins are both of omission
and commission. The profound
elementary realities of life are not
taught in American homes today
A simple, sane, moral conception
of life should be taught The
child's moral gristle should be
hardened into bone"
These words are of profound
wisdom which every father and
mother in the land should lay to
heart. The greatest crime of
modern civilization is the way in
which the average child is being
brought up
He or she is being reared a
Pagan and hoodlum, with neither
the fear of God nor man before
his or her eyes, with no respect
for authority, no regard for law,
no idea of obedience, no recogni-
tion of the rights of others, no
conception of duty, no vestige of
self-control
The grossest material philosophy
goes to no other such end as it is
embodied in the modern child,
whose sole theory of life is to take
the best it can get for itself with
out regard for the feelings or the
rights of others, and to get this
best by tramping rough shod over
every body who stands in it's way.
To any thoughtful person who
regards this system of educating
youth, it is no wonder that our
prisons are filled with boy crimi-
nails, or that on every corner of the
streets we see that most tragic of
fgures-a little undeveloped, un.

the parent: "You are the real
sinner. It's your fault that this
criminal stands before the bar of
justice. If you had done your
duty this man or woman would be
living good, useful life, bless
ing, instead of a curse to humanity"
This sounds hard but every word
of it is true, for, except in the case
Of the insane, congenitive idiots,
there is not crime committed in
which The parents are not the aiders
aud abettors of it; there is not
crime committed that they could
not have prevented had they done
their duty to their children.
When you let your little boy
fly into blind RACES in which he
beats the furniture and bites and
kicEs everybody about him, you
are raising up a potential mur-

future lies in the parents hands.
The boy that is taught obedience
and self control, respect for au-
thority and regard for the rights
of others, never grows up to be
drunken hoodlum. The boy that
is brought up in the knowledge of
the dignity of labor, and who is
held responsible for the perform
ance of certain duties, and who is
taught that there is no shame
greater than that of a man not
being able to stand on his own
feet, does not degenerate into an
idler and loafer. The girl who
is taught modesty of behavior,
and has high ideals of sweetness
and purity held unwaveringly be-

the fnery and gayety she Graves;
or that our divorce courts are
crowded with the matrimonial
quarrels Of men and women who
lack the courage to endure disap-
pointment, and keep the obliga-
tions they had assumed.
Sad as these cases are, common
us they are, when you see how the
average family is reared the marvel
is not that there are so many such
instances, but that there are SO few.
How can you expect a boy who
has never been taught obedience
at home TO have any respect for
law and authority outside OF the
home? How can you expect n boy
who has never had any regard for
the rights of others instilled into
him, to keep his hand out of the
cash drawer of his employer when
he gets the opportunity to steal?
How can you expect boy who
has never been forced to control
himself to resist temptation when
1t comes is way !?
How can you expect girl " ho
has been taught by example, if not
by precept, that fine clothes are
the ends of life to woman, not to
get them any way she can? How
can you expect girl who has had
nothing in her cultivated except
vanity and extravaganza and self
ishness, to be anything but curse
to the husband who gets her? How
can you expect girl who has been
INDUCED in every whim all of her
life to become anything but the
sort of woman who changes bus
bands as often as she does fashions

self, I confess that when [ hear
about the pathetic old father or the
heartbroken old mother of the
