To Preserve the Eyes.

We can help to preserve our eses by taking heed to the kind of light in which we read, especially avoiding night reading with a poor light, as this is sure to cause eye strain and perhaps the necessity for wearing glasses. Resting the eyes by gazing at distant objects when employed on close work is very beneficial, /and an eye bath night and morning is to be commended, using for it a solution of one teaspoonful of boric acid to a glass of water that has been boiled, or some reputable preparation that cah be purchased at slight,cost. —Exchange.
