Obstruction of the Lacrymal or "Tear Duct" This is an Impediment to the es cape of tears, causing them to col lect In what is called the conjunc tlonal sac, or flow over the cheek The most common cause of this Is stricture of the nasal duct, in which condition the tears are arrested a lit tle below the sac, which consequent ly becomes over distended. If not attended to promptly and carefully with proper treatment, the obstruc tion Is very liable to produce a lack rymal fistula, which Is an open'ng upon the cheek and a moBt unsightly repulsive affliction. Eye Strain and Headache. One of the most frequent and ur. suspected sources of nervous dlseas es and headaches, as well as manv cases of supposed neuralgia, 1 eve strain. While it Is true that eye strain of ten. produces symptoms directly-referable to the eye itself, sucli.aBjnL In and around the eye, Irritation and lnfiamation of the lid, etc. It i a notable fact that in the majority of cases, the patient complains but lit tle or not at all of ocular troubles. Eye strain therefore, causes numer ous cases of irreparable injury and suffering, simply because the patient does not suspect the true cause of the trouble. Such headaches are traceable lu 95 per cent of all cases to eye strain. The true significance of heada"hes, is not sufficiently realized by the average person. It is not rare to find cases of constant sick .headacha, that have for years of suffering caused melancholy, loss of memory and sometimes even Insanity. Eye strain not only produces heal ache, but Is accountable for Inabil ity of the sufferer to apply the mind, unrest and loss of sleep, nervous ness, irritability of temper, and men tal depression. It is well known to physicians, that eyestrain often causes stomach troubles dyspepsia, and most of the eye Btrain is ilua to improperly flttted glasses glasses too strong and Irritating in their af fect In the majority of cases If the eyes be examined they will be found to be the true cause of the trouble; and when the eyes are corrected the headaches, etc., being but symptoms, will naturally disappear. Pteryguim. This affliction Is sometimes known as web-eye, and Is a peculiar form of scum .or rather film which usually grows from the inner corner of the eye, and to which the medical term of pteryguim is given. This is of the most common causes of partioal blindness known to oculists and the medical profes sion. The pteryguim sometimes grows from either corner of the eye or both' corners. When first discovered It may be only a slight thickening of the mu cous membrane, but if not checked and its growth allowed to continue it will 'eventually cover the sight and produce blindness, except that it Is re moved, as it is not a severe oper ation.

Gassmed THE REGIMENTAL LAUNDRY By AMBROSE MENDENHALL' Copyright, 1919. by American PrM Asaoctatloo. This story has one merit the inct dent reaUy happened. When the Army of the Cumberland was lying at Murfreesboro, TeniL, waiting for the corn to ripen. General G, a brigade commander, established his headquarters on a knoll On his right was the tent of his chief of staff, and on his left was a tent In which dwelt nla aids-de-camp. Before these three tents paced the sentry of the headquarters guard. Scattered about below the eminence were the camps of the different regiments composing the brigade. Before one of the tents of one of these reclmentol camping grounds a young soldier. Billy Olcott, was clean ing bis musket He was the wag of his regiment and never let an oppor tunity pass to perpetrate a Joke on any of his comrades. He was especially bard on the recruits that came in from time to time, sending them on all kinds of errands that a veteran would know to be ridiculous. He was well liked, except for this propensity, which he carried too far. His veteran asso ciates laughed heartily at his practical portuitylo taie a "god Mtu'red re- " ' " . venire. One day a body of patriots who had Just exchanged thetr ordinary habili ments for uniforms arrived from the north and were turned In on the sea toned men of Billy's regiment like shovelfuls of soft earth thrown on well trampled ground. One of these unfortunates, seeing Billy cleaning his musket and deslrmg information, walked up to him and said: "Say, can you tell me where I can sometning to ao wun nis rature ca get any wasWngdone around Sere?', " ;reer. At any rate, he distinguished Billy looked up at him wun a stare, Now, It must be remembered that to a soldter at the front in wartime a wnntitiih u a.1 Tar awttT. as muca oi a luxury, as a table d'hote menu. Sol diers' clothes in war are seldom wash ed, and when they are they are taken to a creek, rubbed between the knuc kles in lieu of a washboard and the dirt spots blurred over the whole gar ment But even this laundering Is practiced only till the soldier learns to get on with a flannel shirt that shows little dirt and can be worn for months without looking very disreputable. Billy, as I was saying, looked up at the greenhorn with a stare. The re cruit surmised that the veteran was thinking where he could send him td get , his linen laundered, and so he was. Finally, having concentrated his mind on Just where the regimental laundry was located. Billy said: : "Do you see those three tents up there cn that knoll?" . , The recruit admitted that he did. "Well, you go up there and wait till that sentinel walks to one end of bis beat and while his back is turned you, Just before he turns, go into the center tent, and there's where the washing is' done. Mind, don't try to go in when the sentry sees you, or he'll stop you. There's a lot of red tape up there." The recruit thanked Billy for his courteous information and started up the hill, Billy watching him.

A nma with a star on bis shoulder was Bit tins at a fine table writing. At the recruit's entry he looked up, urprled that the in truder had paaed the sentry an en tered unannounced. "Is this the place where the washing is done?" asked the visitor. The general stared at him in some such fashion as Billy bad done. "Did some one tell you to come here to get your washing done? "Yes.-' "Could you take me to the man who told you that?" "I think I can." THe general plotted up his hat and strolled down the incline accompanied by the recruit. Billy was still cleaning his gun and chuckling at bis Joke when, looking up, be saw the recruit he had directed to headquarters coming with the general. As they approached Billy stood up straight as a ramrod and saluted. "That's the man," said the recruit to the general. "Call the corporal of the guard," said the general to Billy. "Corporal of the guardr yelled Billy. The corporal came, saluted, and the general said to him, "Corporal, take a couple of the guard and escort that man," pointing to Billy, "down to the creek and have him wash this man's clothes. 8ee that tfte laundering Is well doner The general returned to bis tent. trult produced bis soiled cldhes.'and a procession of Jeering men escorted Billy down to the creek, where, tindsr the superintendence of the cofporaL he did the recruit's laundering.
