SCHOOL HEADS.
BLAME MOTHERS
Say Parents Neglect Primary Health
Rules.

That many school children are be-
ing allowed to become chronically con-
stipated through parents oversight, is
startling fact, brought to light by
recent investigation by school authori-
ties. Hastily snatched meals so that
there will be more time to play, the
use of ready-to-eat cereals, and the
general neglect of the call of nature
are given as principal causes.
1t is the duty of mothers to see that
children attend to the call of nature
before going to school, and that chill
dren are not given habit-forming
pills, salts, etc. When a laxative is
needed, it should be Castor-Jell, which
is Castor oil in a new and pleasant
jelly form. 1t does not form a habit
and can be bought at Thistlethwaite' s
drug stores. The Castor Products Co.,

Optical Experts to Have National Meet
 In Providence, R. I.

The national convention of the American Optical association will be held in Providence, R. l., July 15 to 22, and from all accounts it will be the biggest affair of the kind ever held. Delegates from every state of the Union and from Canada will be in attendance. Optonetrists who are members will be allowed at most of the sessions.
 The first three days will be Sgiven over to the scientific section, and will consist of a postgraduate cours., when lectures, clinics and dissections will be given under the direction of national leaders such as W. B. Needles of Kansas City, who will deal with "The Nervous System as Relat- ed to the Eye'; Dr. Earl J. Brown of Chicago on Diseases the Optometrist Should Know; S. W. Baker, of Rock lad, Mass, on Dynamic Skiametry." Professor F. w. Woll of Columbia university will conduct dissections of the extrinsic muscles and accessories of the eye. i
 Tuesday, the first day of conven- ton proper, will begin with visit to the plant of the American Optical company, the largest in the world, followed by the formal opening of the congress in Infantry hall, when ad- dresses of welcome will be given by Governor Beekman, representing Rhode Island, and Mayor Gainor of Providence. President Alexander of Salt Lake City will respond and at the close announce the various commit tees.
 Friday will be devoted to a boat ride to Newport, followed by an old fashioned New England clambake.
 Wednesday,, Thursday and Satur- day will be given over to the business of the congress, as well as lectures and demonstrations, some of which will be open to the public.
 The greatest exhibition of optical machinery. appliances for eyesight testing and optical accessories ever the demand for space the largest hall foot of space taken.
 Representatives from Connecticut are President William S. Todd of Hartford and Secretary J. A. Mas terton of Middletown, who will rep resent the Connecticut State Optical society.
 President Todd was the delegate last year, when it was held in San Francisco, and was the person who suggested Providence for this year. He is also chairman of the executive council of the national organization of state board of examiners which meets on the second day of the con- gress.

thereby emphasized the importance which 1t attached to!state control over the issuance of policies. The assured signed this rider, and 1t is claimed that this made the rider legal. It is sufficient to say that the parties by, their agreement could not make valid a provision of the policy which did not comply with the law, and which was expressly forbidden by law under important consideration of public policy. We think, therefore, that the court below erred in dismissing this complaint.
 It may appear at first sight that the result of this conclusion is to allow the plaintiff to sue on con- tract which neither party intended to make. The answier to- this ob- 'jectioh is that the company, when it issued the policy, must. have known th9t the rider was issued contrary to law. In other words the com panys issued this policy with full Knowledge that the rider could not be enforced, and that the other valid parts could be enforced. Probably in it's haste to issue this policy it took the chance of succeeding in limiting the scope of it's risk by a rider which it knew to be sinvalid."
 The court called attention to the fact that al hernia rider attached to the policy had been. filed with and approved by the state superintendent, thereby proving that the company knew that such action was necessary.
