I T.nP A T T NT T-TTTTT7 A big coachload of Toledoites went down to. hear Hon. D. Solis Cohen of Portland discuss the im portance of the exposition t Port land in 1905.

Little Miss Ramona Rollins fef Portland, aged z years, the greatest soprano of her age in the world, perhaps, made every lover .of music in . the audience waul to steal her. Miss Holmes, the elocu tionist, was not on the program for that evening, but ','4 good-naturedly responded to an urgent request and jrave a coupie of rieiignttui select ions one as an encore, of course.

The eye is the only organ of the body that is completely controlled bv the brain, therefore, if there is any kind of an imporfection in the refraction of the eye, the brain muet necessarily be on a constant strain to compel perfect vinion through an imperfect eye. This may affect the brain, causing what is called asthenopia , or chronic sick headache. This constant effort ' on the part of the brain takes brain strength, and in order to renew its strength the brain draws on the nervous system for new material with which to replace the lout power necessarily used to compel perfect vision. If the nervous system ' is porfectly bal anced it will suffer as a whole and the person" with such a strain is liable to nervous prostration or any other disease that comes because of a total loss of nerve ; but if there U a weak point in the nervous system, that point, because of a lack of power to protect itself, will be robbed more than any other part, and the person will havev trouble at that point. If it is in the. nerve linincs of the stomach, it will be stomach trouble ; if it. id tVlA hrnnnhinl nnvuau onrl tmionlitt it will be bronchial disease; oritmay be any other disease that comes from a lack of strength .in any of the nerve centers. - This is no longor a matter of conjec ture or experiment, for thousands of cures are being made and hundreds of thousands, of people benefited through wearing 'scientifically fitted classes. which Kivo mu ijuuunt ueneci vih on which give the patient perfect vision brain efIort- th"eV "topping me iocs 10 uio nervous system n- r,.ta .!...':., . . .. ... ine ioieuo xioici. carries ine retraction of light l" beyond ythin8 ever at- standpoint.
