TWO DOIS, m DR. CANADA, OPHTHALMOLOGIST, WILL BE AT DR. COVERDALE'S OFFICE, DECATUR, INDIANA, Monday and Tuesday, April 4 and 5 I have been at Dr Coverdale’s office the first Tuesday of each month for more than two years, and in that time I have fitted hundreds of pairs of spectacles and I do not hesitate to say that more than 90 per cent, cf those fitted will unqualifiedly recommend me to their friends.

IF THE readers kn >w as much regarding Sp ctacles and their relation to i he eyeas the writer dots, you would certainly not put off getting them if you have -m eye def < t and you would also insist on precision in the fitting of the lenses that it may be necessary for you to wear. Precision, the quality of being just right is a quality that you want to look for in your spectacles. It is a necessity in glass prescriptions else they will not relieve your error of refraction or its effects. The word quality alone means nothing ordinarily, that is, it may designate good, bad or indifferent, but we use the word in a specific sense only mean that what we dispense is just what it should be in every case. Our training and knowledge of the teenhical part of refraction and lens fitting, is of the the sort that enables us to say this with considerable confidence. This means you get some thing more than the mere purcoase of spectacles-the absolute certainty, all indications after a careful examination being what they seem, that what you get will do what it is prescribed to do. Consult me if you find it necessary, when reading to place the book near to or farther from the face than 12 or 14 inches. When things “swim” or become dim after being looked at for some time. When you involuntary frown or partly close the eyes when looking at an object. When your eyes tire and when you cannot continue for any length of time to regard small objects, as in reading. W’hen you have headache in the temples, forehead or just back of the ears. W’hen they ache, smart or water, when the eye lids get inflamed often, or when you have pain in the eyeballs. W’hen you have any nervous derangement that you cannot account for otherwise. W’hile defects of the vision manifest themselves, as a rule, in one or the other of the symptons above mentioned, or in combination of them, yet there are many cases where the patient may be as yet unconscious of any de feet, and yet have an error. Physicians generally realize the importance of stopping these “nervous leaks” that comes through the eye and their relation to the general health, and when they suspect that this is probably one of your ailments they will advise you to see if spectacles are needed; then eome straight to me. Those ■needing spectacles and desiring to avail themselves of the benefit of my experience and skilled Knowledge of the technical ■pari of spectacle fitting will do well to call. There is no guess work in my method. lam prepared for accuracy, measuring and examingthe eye for defects

and if the glasses are prescribed and you faithfnlly carry out directions you will get the desired results. WHY FIT GLASSES INTELIGENTLY. First: To relieve nerve strain, which always accompanies deformed eyes, and to relieve the ills that go hand in hand with the nerve strain. It is not hard to force an admission from anyone that the eye is a part of the human anatomy. You will admit that it is nourished by the circulatory system that supplies the rest of the body. You will confess the probability that the name nervous system that operates other members also connect with the eyes. You will concede that there is a great sympathetic nervous system that works so quickly that if the eyes observe a threatening motion the whole body will dodge -then is it not possibly equally true that if the eyes are misshaped so they demand more than their share of the daily nerve supply, such demand, if supplied would weaken the reserve supply in the brain or overwork the producing machinery, or both and is it not likely to involve any or all other functions, and further is it not natural that organs with similar musclesand nerves would be most likely to suffer first. Second: To improve vision, if it is below normal. However the improvement of vision is neither the only nor chief reason for fitting or wearing glasses. They set up a harmonious normal action of the several parts of the eye with each other and places the patient on a direct road to recovery, because they remove the first cause of irritation, but they do not fill up the depleted supply tank: that is a matter of proper food and right living. Glasses rive rest to the overworked eye and save up the nerve energy th*t was wasted before, this is the reason so many get relief from headache sore e>e«. nervousness, indigestion, etc. Thev should be procured as early as possible, because they will be of more value as a preventative rather than a relief. If children were properly instructed and fitted with glasses while young they would grow and develoy better and avoid the bad effects of the deformity A byperope at twelve is a hyperopt l always, as the size and shape of the ei e is determined before that period in lite, The deficit ncy is incurab e. the only relief from its bad effects i» properly fitted glasses to be worn at all times, because they adjust the rays of light to the deformity thus placing the nerves in harmony with each other, and in this way they relieve the !>ad effects of the deficiency. The foundation of morality and right doing is a peaceful, contented mind due to a healthy body and proper surroundings. The foundation of Immorally and wrong doing is a disturbed mind, caused by a distorted or unhealthy body, especially the brain organs, which latter determine the development of the body to a great extent. No one can have a placid mind while under the influence ot nerve strain, because be cannot rest. He who is suffering from nerve strain and fails to have his eyes examined is dull indeed. Those who have their eyes examined and if they need glasses— and do not follow directions are stubborn and deserve to suffer- It is their own fault that’s all.

When Dr. Caldwell’s (Laxative) Syrup Pepsin was formulated it was not with the intent that it would in any way prove effective as a Pile Cure, but as the remedy became more generally known and used its superior merit as a remedy for Piles became so certainly apparent that we were led to add to our guarantee as a cure for Constipation, Indigestion, Sick Headache and Stomach Trouble, the disagreeable and serious ailment of Piles.
