becoiife cramped just as any other
muscle of the body can become stiff.
This results in eye-fatigue, and
makes you feel tired at the end of
the day.
If your work requires that you
concentrate OH an object near you,
as in reading, sewing or tipping, try
this experiment every few minutes,
look up from your work and fix your
eyes on some point in the distah"e
for a few moments. This changes
the focus of the eyes and allows the
little muscles to rest. 1t Is a great
help in avoiding eye-strain and
fatigue.
If your eyes are tired after the
days work. and you want them to
look fresh and bright in the eve
ming. try lying down for a few min
utes with your eyes closed and plac-
ing little pads, soaked in cold water
or witch hazel. over the lids. You'll
find that, this refreshes your eyes
considerably.
If you have to work in a dusty
or smoky atmosphere. it's a good
idea to wash your eyes in the eve
ming. using q little eye-cup that will
cost only a few cents. A good eye
wash a be made by dissolving
one-half teaspoon Of clean table
salt in a cup of lukewarm water.
Fill the eye-cup with this solution.
then lean Over and place the cup
against the eye. Throw your head
back until the eye-cuL is upside
down. holding 1t against your eye
so the solution can't spill. Keep
your eye open and look from side
to side in order to wash out the
corners of your eyes. But be sure
the eye-cup is perfectly clean be-
fore yoli use it. or your washing
may do more harm than good.
