The Value of Service

In buying an article to be

is as important to get good
service as first-class materials.
But good service has a real
money value. That is the rea-
son that the man or woman
who buys cheap" glasses gets
nothing in the way of SER
vice.
Our service insures accur-
acy in grinding the lenses
comfort and security in the
mounting, proper adjustment
to the face, and a pair OF
glasses that are becoming to
you.

ADENOIDS DANGEROUS To
CHILDREN'S HEALTH
Slight Operation Necessary 10 Re-
move Them

Not every child that is back.
ward at school, that breathes
through his mouth, has dull eyes,
ashort upper lip, prominent upper
teeth or has a drawn tired express
ion about the face has adenoids,
says the State Board of Health.
But this condition should lead a
parent to suspect adenoid growth
and it should not be dismissed
till a thorough examination has
proven that such is not the case.
A1enoids are a small, soft, red:
dish growth which comes in the
back part of the throat where the
nose and throat join. A child who
has adenoids breathes with his
mouth open, has frequent colds,
and may have earache often or
become deaf. 1t is not infrequent
that adenoids dull the expression
of the eye, destroy the resonance
of the voice and distort the fa-
cial expression so as to produce
blank, idiotic stare. They hinder
mental development by interfer-
ing with proper physical develop
ment. Forthatreason "repeaters"
at school are frequently said to
be afflicted with adenoids.
The best time to remove
adenoids is when they are first
recognizable to physician. If
they remain longer they do harm.
They cause a child to have colds"
often and make him more
susceptible to dlphtheria, scarlet
fever, measles and whooping
cough. furthermore, if he gets
any of these diseases, they are
likely to be severe with him and
leave him even worse afflicted.
Cold, fresh air breathed through
the nose is needed to prevent
adenod growth. 1t is needed to
prevent adenoids returning after
an operation. Fresh air taken
in through the nose prevents as
well as cures adenoids.
