There is no one trouble that can
so completely throw an individual
of his balance mentally or physic
ally as eye strain. There are very
rev kinds of eye strain that can
not be corrected by the use of
glasses. Unfortunately we are all
too prone to leave the work of
correcting eye strain entirely to
the oculist and expect him to work
a miracle by putting drops in and
prescribing glasses. We do not even
take enough interest to intelli
gently understand just what the
trouble is and to aid in correcting
1t by properly using our glasses.
The myopic eye is elongated fore
and aft so the light rays focus In
| front of the retina and the image is
blurred. These eyes cannot see dis
tant objects without glasses
The hypcrmetropic eye is one in
which the eyeball is slightly fiat
tened fore and aft. This eye must
accommodate for both distant and
near objects. Persons having suCA
eyes form one class of those said 70
be far sighted. Their trouble must
be corrected by the use of convex
glasses. In most eye troubles the
eye is rested by looking up from
close work and resting the eye on a
distant object. This is not true OF
the hypermetrOpic eye. Its mus
clcs of accommodation need the aid
of the glass lens for both near and
far work. These persons should
| wear their glasses for both near
and far work or the eye constantly
deteriorates
Ask your oculist what your par
ticular eye strain is and then give

Court Upholds
Postman's Right
To Use His Fists

Persons who interfere with mail
carriers in the performance of their
duty cannot complain if the mail
carrier punches them in the nose.
Judge Hardison made this plain in
Police Court yesterday morning
when he dismissed a charge of as
sault against Roy c. Delaney, a
colored mail carrier filed by Alex
ander Moore, also colored, an en-
gineer in an office building at 606
+ street northwest.
Moore charged that Delaney, who
Is the son of a Washington police
man, had assaulted him after he
had warned the mail carrier not to
use the elevator. Delaney pitched
into Moore after an argument, he
testified, and loosened several of his
teeth.
Judge Hardison held that no one
had right to attack a mail carrier
in the performance Of his duty and
also held that the mail carrier was
compelled, in defense of himself
and the mail to fight.

BOY, PAGE THE NEW MAN!

BOY, PAGE THE NEW MAN!
One of the troubles with the
world now is that we have not a
new woman but We have got the
same old man. Consequently. this
modern Eve and prehistoric Adam
are naturally unable to hit it on
together.
Hence the falling of in the sale
OF wedding rings and the prevalence
Of divorce, and the sounds Of muuny
and insurrection when two bold
young creatures. with different
theories OF life and opposite view
points. are rash enough to adven-
ture forth together on the stormy
sea OF matrimony.
In the last twenty-five years
women have as completely changed
in every way. as II the leopard hsd
shed his spots. The girl Of today
is no more like what her mother
was at her age than il she be-
longed to a different species Of
beings She no more thinks as
mother thought. or holds mothers
opinions. or has the aspirations
mother had. or dreams tire dream g
that mother dreamed, than she
wears clothes cut after the fashion
that mother wore when she was a
girl. The modern girl has devel-
oped a natural waist, mentally as
well as physically. and she couldn't
compress her ideas into mothers

Which she doesn't.
But men. so far as women are
concerned. have not altered. Grand

stand pat on the woman question,
Just where thoy have always stood.
OF course, there many be an eNcep-
tion here and there to this rule,
but the great majority Of men have
not changed an iota.
Their ideals Of the peri, CT won-
an. their opinion OF what a woman
should think and feel. their view

those that have been handed down

Xxy-A PEREMPToRY CALL.

While Osborne still slept. Alison
rose quietly and slipped out to the
dressing-room without disturbing
him. More than eveer she maryeled
at the ability of the healthy male
to sleep though the house falls.
Also at heart, she was a trifie sur
prised and resentful that he should
not have been eager to awake to
greet her on the first morning of
their honeymoon.
She had finished her tub and was
putting up her hair when the phone
rang again. Slipping into her neg
ligee. she went into the other room
to answer it just as Osborne rolled
reluctantly out of bed and reached
for the instrument.
Hello" he greeted her. only half
awake, his eyes sleep trimmed un-
der his disordered hair. What an
early bird you are! Been up long,"
She shook her head. motioning to
the clamoring phone.
Better answer It. I've already
had a call from home"
"Oh, Lord" he groaned, taking
down the receiver.
Hello" he spoke shortly.
Alison perched on the side of his
bed, one 1901 tucked unueT neT.
She could hear the metallic reso-
nance of a feminine voice speaking
excitodly. and soon identified it as
Jane Wardwelrs.
Her young husband, with the
receiver to his ear, was listening
to his aunt, on his face a grim ex
preston which gradually gave way
to one Of alarm.
"Oh. 1 say, Jane. I'm darned sor-
~. l didn't think she'd take 1t
that way, Sort of a lark. you
know, for Alison and me, and I
thought she'd understand"
An interval filled with the metal
lie shrillness of James voice.
Yes. yes, of course" said Os-
borne reassuringly. AT once.
You're sure she's all right now?"

Yes. Jane, right away. By-bye.'

Wen have to go back to Maple

shame. but Jane says the matters
thrown a regular fit over my-our
going away without warning. She's
got a bad heart, you know, and
she's in pretty bad shape this morn
ing, according to Jane"
As Alison aid not reply immedi-
ately. he went over to her and drew
her close.
Wen take a real honeymoon
trip later. Eth. sweetheart? And
we'll take jolly good care to get
out cards announcing our inten-
tions at leeast three weeks in ad-
vance"
Alison did not yield to his coax
ing arm. She knew that she ought
to accept his decision graciOusiy;
after all, his mothers frail health
should be considered. But she was
keenly resentful of the easy way in
which he changed their plans at his
aunt's request when he had taken
such a high-handed attitude toward
her own mothers solicitations.
Also, the thought of returning to
face the triumphant Barbara Wales
was not to be relishcd.
DO you really think it is so Sc
riOus?" she temporiZed.
Unmindful of his brides unde-
monstrative attitude, Osborne crush
cd his lips against her cheek.

hardly like to take chance in re-
fusing to go back. You know we'd
never forgive ourselves if-if any

never was. Nurse Jane" said the
rabbit gentleman.
Thank you, very much" respond-
ed Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy.
Uncle Wiggily was always glad
to have something to do when he
wasn't looking for adventures. So

as carpenters wear. and he put on
his old clothes and then. borrow
ing an extra saw from Mr.. Saw
fish. the carpenter, and getting
some boards and thorn nails, Uncle
Wiggily started to work
rs it hard to make a box, Uncle
wiggily?' asked Floppy Twistytail,

along with Jackie Bow Wow, the
puppy dog lad. as Uncle wiggfly
was hammering away.
"Oh, no, II is very easy" an
swered the bunny. "All / have 10
do is to take four pieces of wood
for the sides and fasten them to-
gether with thorn nails. Then !
fasten piece on for the bottom
and another for the top. I'm put
ting on the bottom now" and as
Uncle Wiggily said this he whacke ed
and hammered the boards until he
had nearly finished the box for
Nurse James clothespins, while
Floppy and Jackie looked on.
The piggie boy and Noggie boy
were just thinking how wonderful
Uncle Wiggily was to be able to
hatch robin eggs and make things
