Second If you find it necessary to get more light than formerly as for in stance, to place tbe light between the eyes and the object. Third If, on looking at and attentive ly considering a near object, it becomes confused and appears to have a kind of mist before it. Fourth When the letters of a book or paper run together and appear to have doubled or trebled. Fifth If the eyes are fatigued by a little exercise so that you are obliged .to shut tbem from, time to time, or relieve them by looking at other.objects. Sixth If black spots or flakes appear before the eyes or eeem floating around the eyes. Seventh If the eyes become inflamed or heated or any other exercise. If you observe any of the above eigna or signals of distress, it should claim your immediate attention. Tbe eye, like the rest of the body, slowly but surely reaches the acme the meridian of its strength and perfection then passes into a condition of weakness and decay. When this stage arrives, we should avail ourselves of tbe aids that ecience aud patient research baa thrown in our way at so small an expense. When you find your old spectacles should be replaced by a new pair, it is always for a stronger pair, for our eyes never grow younger until we reach the stage of "second sight" in tbe somber twilight of 'old ,age. Immediate atten tion to the eyes when we And they need it, means many years of Eight saved and better vision. It is no more nor less than a duty you owe yourself, for care less delay results finally fn vain regrets and useless complaints. Daut, the optician, knows just what you need in the line of glasses.
