older and begins to play in crib, mother should not encourage babe to play with toys too close to the eyes as all babies are born rather far sighted and close objects have a tendency to draw the eyes inward, and in time may cause a weakness of one of these muscles resulting in per- manent turning in of one eye. Moth- CT should examine her own baby's
 eyes early in childhood in regard t, whether they are straight or one turned in or outward. This condition is very important to be noticed early. as 1t may save the eye from mecom- ing practicall blind in later life. An eye that turn in is called strabismus -squint or choss- -eyed-and can be helped. Many times it can be cured if taken and treated early as I men, toned before, but If not treated early this child will surely lose the sight in that eye. This condition should be treated when first noticed even in the creeping age.
 Mothers should have their chil- drens eyes examined early in life if they suspect any abnormal vision, and should be done by competent eye physician. We are in a position to-day to detect the slightest defect of an eye. As the child grows older ana lC IS a question or glasses the child should be brought to the eye physician or specialist and he will put drops in the eyes, as this is the only means of examining a child's eyes correctly. A child wearing glasses should return yearly for in- spection or probably re-examina- tion as a child's condition changes rather rapidly.
 A few words about foreign bodies in eyes of babies and children. It would be much safer and cheaper to call in a competent eye physician, as a good many of these foreign bodies lead to alteration and partial destruction of the eye. Of course, 1t is most important to keep up the highest possible physical condition of the child to obtain the utmost out of the child's eyes.
 Summary
 1. If the child's eyes are neglected the outcome may be disastrous. 2. If the child's eyes are properly cared for, they will be good eyes in later years. 3. Start your child off in life with good vision. You Owe It To Him, as defective vision in childhood brings regret and ofter failure in later life. PARTY AIR

Baby's Eyes Need {. Proper Attention
Neglect May Result in Poor {, Vision Later On

Before writing about the care of children's eyes, 1t is of utmost inn portance to emphasize two diseases that have caused more poor vision, suffering, destruction, and even loss of one or both eyes. These two dis eases are gonorrhea and syphilis, and nre transmitted from the parents to the infant. If either parent suspects or knows he or she has one of the above diseases they should consult and tell their physician, so he can treat the expectant mother. accord ing to the modern methods to pre- vent probably a horrible condition to the newborn babys eyes.
 Syphilis of the eyes called inter- sttial keratitis, is an inherited form of the disease and usually shows it. self in the eyes at about age 10 to IA. But if the attending physician may prevent this horrible condition that may lead to complete loss of vision and sometimes destruction of eyes.
 Gonorrhea is not an inherited dis ease but is transmitted from mother to child during birth, this disease has caused very large percentage of blindness until preventive medi- cine became known, and since that time 1t has been greatly reduced. In good many states there is a law that requires the attending physician to use the preventive measure in all cases he delivers. This preventive measure is very simple. It consists of irrigating and washing both eyes with four percent solution of boric acid, and then, one or two drops of a one percent silver nitrate dropped in each eye.
 After the first day the attending nurse should wash both eyes daily, using clean sterile cotton dipped in boric solution. teaspoonful of boric powder dissolved in water glass of previously boiled water gives about the right proportion. The usual nor mai infant requires no other care. If on the second or third day nurse or mother notices a discharge or swelling of lids she should notify the attending physician at once.
 Babies should be placed in a mod erately dark room to sleep as a pro- lection to the eyes. As baby grows

Infamed Eyes
 Among Babies
Frequently Takes Place
 After Birth of Child

Many babies within two or three days after birth, occasionally later have what is commonly known as sore eyes or as the mothers say have caught cold in their eyes,.
 This condition is reportable by law in most of the states. The eyehd0 become reddened and swollen and lin very few hours pus (matter) is seen in abundance. All such cases must be energetically and skillfully treated at home by trained physts elan. Neglect and carelessness may result in the loss of the baby:s sight. While waiting for the doctor to come, bathe the eyes hourly with a saturated solution of boric acid.
