EYE AFFECTS WHOLE BODY

Why Routine Examination of School Children Is Imperative Is Explained by Authority. i

~ Dr; de Schweinitz, in Hygeia, first ‘points out that only about 4 per ‘cent of eyes are entirely normal according to optical standards. At hirth nearly all eyes are far-sighted. Near-sighted eyes most commonly make their appearance from the sixth to the tenth year of life, that is to say especially during school years. Such errors when marked give rise to eyestrain or “weak eves.” While it is true that few eyes are absolutely normal, many approach it so closely that for all practical purposes they may be considered normal. They do not give rise to discomfort, ~and correcting’zlasses are not required, at least, in younger’ years. But it must be realized further that good vision and palnless eyes do not necessarily exclude eyestrain; and eyestrain may cause headache, pains in various parts of the body, twitching of the face, night terrors, fiervqusness, indigestion, - and many other symptoms. The need for the rontine examinatign of the eyes of school children is therefore clear, and the possible effects of failure to recognize the fact of eye trouble are pointed out. These effects aré not limited to the eye itself. “The eye is not confined, as it were, to a little area of its own, subject to diSeases and defects unconnected with the rest of the body. Quite the contrary. It is most intimate in its relations to the rest of the body.” ‘“The problems “which surround it, whether they relate ‘to optical faults or to disease, are medical problems, and must be Solved with this fact always in view.”

SELF-PITY SHOWS WEAKNESS | e : iCan Properly Be Set Down Not Only ~as-'a Bad Habit, but a Poison- | oug™One. i b : Rl | - ' Have you among your friends or acquaintances any men or women who are always pitying themselves? If so, you can set them down as weaklings. Self-pity is self-destruction. Self-pity saps one’s self-reliance. Self-pity breeds despair. The strong don’t indulge in self-pity. They are too busy thinking and working and talking constructively. They.are intent on attaining some object, some goal. They are S 0 . engrossed in practicing self-help that they have no time to waste on self-pity. Self-pity is not only a bad habit; it Is a poisonous habit. It hurts self and it disgusts others. The person who is chronically guilty of self-pity hasn’t in him the spirit of self-sacrifice, and without self-sacrifice no human being can qualify to go far or rise far. Selfpity reveals a lack of self-disecipline. We all .encounter difficulties and discouragements; we all have ambitions thwarted. But we do not let gis'cour-_ agements discourage; we do not give up because balked and thwarted time and again; we do not wear our oceaslonal streaks of pessimism on our sleeve or on our countenance. We keep a stiff upper lip. We wrestle on. And we smile on. We don’'t become cry babies. We may inwardly wince, but we don’t flinch. We don’t' pour tales of ‘woe into the ears of others—we know %they have troubles enough of their own. - , ; -We refuse to be cowards. We re fuse to wear the white feather. We strive to be men. We become men. We are men.—Forbes Magazine.'

. Clerk's One-Cyligder Mind. “I usually know what I want and when -1 do I ask for it explicity,” said the Man Who Grumbles. “Yesterday I entered a paint store and to the clerk who offered to wait on me I said: ‘I want a quart of white paint, best quality, for wood to be used/outside. '

- “The 'clerk seemed puzzled, He studied a moment and asked: ‘How much do you want? I told him. He _seemed satisfied and after a brief pause asked: ‘lnterior or outside? I again suppied the information. He made no objdetion but still sought information. ‘Going to use it on wood? he suggested. I assured him that I infended to smear it on my window frames and they are of wood. | = “I thought the transaction was about to be closed, but the clerk was still In doubt on one point. ‘What color? he asked cheerfully. I satisfied his ‘curfosity and he got the Daint for me. Stupid? Not a bit. He simply had 8 one-cylinder mind. I had supplied too many facts for him to assimilate 8t once."—New York Sun.
