THE EYELIDS AND EYELASHES.

Granulated eyelids almost always
call for glasses. This condition usually
springs from impaired vision that has
been unrelieved for a long time. Thus
If the eyes are near or far sighted or
there exists some other defect, and
despite this the eyes are in constant
use, a state of chronic congestion is
established which results in the Sc
we're Inflammation called "granulated
lids" because the delicate membrane
IS studded with tiny granulations that
resemble minute grains of sand. An
eye specialist should always be con-
suited in such cases, as nothing but
glasses will permanently relieve the
trouble.
Dry, red, itching borders OF the lids
are also quite a common affection of
the eyes Some people are habitually
troubled in this way, working in dust,
smoke, or a very bright light some
times gives rise to 1t; children who
are constitutionally delicate, or who
are underfed, frequently are troubled
so; excessive use of the eyes may also
bring IT about.
In some chronic cases, scales and
crusts form which are removed with
difficulty, carrying the lashes away
with them. Bathing the lids with a
warm solution of carbonate of soda
1.-TWO drams of soda to a pint of warm
water) will soften the scaliness and
facilitate its removal without undue
loss Of the lashes. The solution can
be mopped on the lids with cotton.
cIeansed, an ointment should be gent
ly applied. There are various good
oirftments in general use among eye
specialists for this purpose; perhaps
the favorite is the yellow oxide of
mercury, Y to 1 per cent IN equal
parts OF vaseline or lanohn. This
makes a very weak ointment, but It -
more soothing and healing than
stronger preparations that frequently
lrritate the eyes. Ointments used on
the eyes must be carefully prepared
and put up in small quantities so that
they are always fresh. A few drops
Of sweet oil rubbed up with the finely
powdered mercury before 1t is added
to the vaseline makes a very delicate
and smooth ointment, the use Of which
l can heartily recommend. Any re-
liable druggist can make up a small
amount at short notice.
Stys are troublesome little boils
that form at the root of an eyelash.
They can often be prevented from de-
veloping by pulling out the particular
eyelash involved. This is easily done
with a pair of small pliers or for
ceps; otherwise very warm borax wa
ter IA heaplng teaspoonful of borax
to pint Of hot water) should be ap-
piled to the sty repeatedly. This may
succeed in aborting it or "ripen" it
more quickly, when it can be opened
with a sterilized needle and rubbed
with the ointment mentioned above,
which hastens its cure. When sites be-
come chronic, appearing in successive
crops, the eye should be examined for
some error in vision that can be cor
rected with glasses. This being the
