MADAME DE LUEN, Slops Coughs & Colds THE EYE IS THE WINDOW OP THE SOUL. /"VUR grandparents are no more In need of a good Optician than our grandchildren. The very young and the very old, ns well as the folks between those extremes, are neglecting their eyesight in a criminally careless manner. “Criminal” is not too strong a term, as so many accidents on railwavs. and along highways, as well as in the city streets, and upon the waterways, are the result of defective vision. Why does that businessman, whe' trying to enjoy “a quiet read,” so frequently pinch his eyes with his fingers? He thinks it is only a touch ofWiat tired feeling, but he is wrong. A visit to a reputable, skilled and experienced OjAician would prove this effectually. And a pair of glasses, made to suit his case, would make all the difference between the disagreeable and the enjoyable when reading or writing. Parents should take a hint from this. Study your children. Many a so-called “dull scholar” is only so because of some defect of the eyes. Do not neglect the eyesight of your children. You take them to the dentist, you go there yourself, and it is quite as necessary that the Optician should be consulted. Good teeth are valuable without a doubt, but who would say that their eyes are less valuable. Rather is it a fact that a pair of perfect eyes is worth many times more than the best set of teeth ever possessed. If you have defect of visions consult our MR RUSSELL, D. 5.0.1., D.L.0.C., Qualified Opathalmic Optician and Professor of Optometry, who has spent fourteen years as a teacher of Optical Science.
