Eye Strain and Sleep.
BY H. ADDINGTON BRUCE.
Copyright. 1881

If, without apparent cause. you I'M
expectedly find yourself becoming a
victim of chronic insomnia, SO that
you sleep badly night after night.
your wisest course is to be examined
medically without delay. And you
may well begin by having your eyes
examined
Persistent insomnia, when such
psychic causes as worry. mental IA
tigue, etc.. are not in question. is now
known to be not infrequently the re-
suit Of eye-strain. In fact, even
when PSYCHIC causes are present, eye
strain may have helped to make them
productive of sleeplessness.
A person with uncorrected eye de-
fectS necessarily taxes his nervous
system unduly, in proportion as he
uses his eyes. Should any special
cause for worry then present itself,
he will be less able to avoid worrying
than would otherwise be the case.
Yielding to worry. sleeplessness is
likely sequel. The inclination Of
course will be to attribute the Sleep
lessness solely to the worry. Where
as the unsupported eye-strain actual
In fact, so often is eye-strain a
direct or indirect cause of sleepless-
ness that we find one prominent
physician declaring:
81 firmly believe errors of refrac-
ton to be the most constant and most
powerful predisposing cause of in
somnia, and the careful and skillful
correction of such errors the most
reliable weapon we possess in over
coming this malady."
This has the ring of an over-state-
ment Nevertheless, it conveys a hint
from which m2nV iDSnmOi2cS should
profit.
Not few, as a matter of fact, have
already been definitely cured of their
sleeplessness by the simple device of
giving them well-ftting spectacles.
One man. nervous wreck. for near
ly two years a victim of insomnia
and palpitation of the heart, soon
after beginning to wear spectacles
reported to the specialist who had
prescribed for him:
1.-THE effect of the glasses has been
decidedly good. The palpitation has
passed away. My nerves are quieter
and normal sleep has returned You
have very grateful patient. I can
assure you"
In another case, after a long course
Of worse than useless drugging. the
relief of eye-strain brought this en-
thuSiastic avowal:
II am glad to tell you that my gid
dineSs, insomnia and other nervous
symptoms have all disappeared. and
1 am now feeling bright and ener-
getic-in fact. as well as I have ever
felt in my life"
Yet another insomniac. cured by
spectacles, testif1es:
There is distinct Improvement in
the tone of my general health, and
the depression, irritability and in
somnia are relegated to the mem
cries of the past"
These are typical of many illus
trative instances that might be cited
OF course it is not to be inferred
that when no manifest cause for
sleeplessness exists the blame should
always be thrown on eye-strain. But
it is to be inferred that much time,
SUITE ring and expense may be saved
If the ilsomniac in search of relief
gives a competent specialist a chance
to determine the condition of his
eyes.

In an Observation Post

few minutes the artillery was she'll
ing the spot. The first shell burst
in the trench at the end Of the work
ing party The second preached the
parapet about the middle of them.
Four shrapnel shells followed. just
as the Germans were getting out
of the trench to scatter over the
open, and several of the enemy fell
before they could reach further
shelter.
Every good business. Jackson" said
the colonel's voice over the telephone.
when the officer had reported the re-
suit to him. Don't put the guns on
again today. though. or the Germans
will begin to realize that a new OBJ
servation post is being used"
The wisdom Of the coloners advice
was patent. If he Germans once
suspected the purpose to which the
old house was being put there would
be little chance of escape for Jack
son and his comrades. Only by night
could the house be entered, and the
German shells would hound them out,
to be dealt with by their snipers in
the open.
So all day the three lay quiet by the
spy holes, noting, but not transmit
ting; reading the German secrets
but hiding well their own, that on
the morrow. and many other NOR
rows thereafter, they might return to
their observation post and carry on
as before.

ment Attributed to Admiral Sims,

Naval gossips are occupied in de-
batting whether official cogniZance
would be taken of the statement at
tributed to Vice Admiral Sims, the
United States naval representative in
London, regarding the freedom OF
the seas"
According to the press dispatch Ad-
miral Sims said that the freedom 81
the seas" could not be defined, but
that to him what looks like perfect
freedom of the seas" is what 'the
power of Great Britain has permit
ted" in the past.
Local critics say that Admiral Sims
virtually favored. at least by infer
ence. that Great Britain's navy con-
tinue its historic role of mistress of
the seas" in the joint interest of the
world at large.
In view of the importance that the
question Is likely to assume in the
final adjustment Of the issues of the
war, and that the fact that the views
attributed to Admiral Sims do not
accord entirely with the views ex-
pressed by President Wilson on the
same subject. speculation il rife rs to
whether any Official action will be

even at Caporetto the strategy was Ger
man. and the decisive blow was deliv-
cred by German troops. AS an offensive
force, as a fighting force, the Austrians
were no longer formidable, and their de-
feat in the first battle of the Pave
this year proved this fact. After the
defeats of 1916 the Austrian army was
no more than a biunted instrument in
German hands; it supplied troops for &C.
cupation in Russia, it held the Italian
armies at the Piave, but it was no
longer capable of furnishing more than
a few relatively inferior divisions for
defensive operations on the west front,
notably at St Mihiel.
Such is the Austrian record in the
present war. The German and Hun
garian troops have fought well and with
great determination, although under
Austrian and Hungarian leadership they
have invariably been defeated. But the
Slav troops have fought with little en-
ergy, have surrendered by the thousands
to the Russians and have been an ele-
ment of weakness at all times. Under
the strain of the war the army, like the
nation, has steadily deteriorated Had

autumn of 1914. after the defeats about

would have fallen to Italy last autumn,
