DR. THOMSON'S EYE TALK
(TALK NO. 22:5.) Arm's Length. With a trood many people the Hrst symptom of defective eyes is the necessity for holding the newspaper at arm's length. They find that they Cannot hold it where they used to and see well. This is because the greatest strain upon th eye is in nar sein.iT. The closer an object is held to tho fact the greater tho effort. How often we hear people say that they can see off a.t a distance as well as ever but "reading- and writing tires them. When theso symptom first become noticeable have your eyes examined and fitted with gla&ses. Do not wait until the mu?eles are weakened but have it done at once. In that way glasses for close work only will usually be sufficient. If you postpone the matter too lone you will have to wear them constantly. .See me about it. DR. H. A. THOMSON
