International baseball after the war?
 A worlds series between the cham pion teams of England, France, the United States, Japan and possibly South America?
 "Why not?" asked Jimmy Callahan, ex-pilot of the Pirates, who rounded this little old globe four years ago with the All-Americans and All-Natienals, and who is now interested in baseball behind the trenches in France.
 Tt will not surprise me if England and France take up baseball after the war;" said Jimmy. saThose people like baseball-the only trouble is the game has never been allowed to develop there.

CAUSE OF EYE
TROUBLES GIVEN
In DETAIL
Proper Method Of Treatment
Suggested

Thousands of people from childhood
TO old age are chronic sufferers from
some form of headache, and in a sur-
prisingly large percentage of these cases
the cause may be traced directly to an
abnormal condition of the eyes. Some.
times this condition is present at birth,
sometimes 1t is the result of sickness or
accident later in life.
One of the most frequent causes
of this class of headaches is muscular
imbalance. The eyeball is controlled in
its movements by six external muscles,
and when any one or more of them be.
come weakened or fail to operate as
they should, the result is defee.
tive vision and an intensive strain up-
on the nervous centers, generally mani.
Tested by pains in the forehead, the
temples or in the back of the head or
at the base of the brain. If these con.
ditions are allowed to continue they
often result in serious consequences,
such as strabismus--or cross eyes---or in
a general breakdown.
In treating such cases DR.. M. p.
Mendelsohn has been unusually success
fui In addition TO the skill and
knowledge which he has acquired in his
more than "a years Of exclusive practice
of optometry, the doctor has Just re-
ceived the latest and best instruments
to be obtained. He is thus enabled to
develop and treat weak muscles, restor-
ing normal conveyance of the eyes and
overcoming diplopia or double vision.
BY the Doctors methods all this is
done without the use of the knife
formerly considered the only way-and
entirely without the use of drops or
drugs Of any kind, as they are not only
injurious but dangerous.
Consult DR.. Mendelsohn at once in
regard to your eyes and avoid the evil
results that follow delay in such mat
ters. Children 3 eyes especially should
be examined and treatment given as
early as possible while their muscles
IRE easily developed. DR.. M. p Mendel-
