Having the Eyes Examined.
If a child screws up Ita eyes wben
tooklng at a distant object or, wben
rviidlug book, bos to bend closely
ivt It a defect In vision abould be
ttispeited. Sometlmwa tbe child com
ilultm of headaches or eye acbsr-tbs
rormpr uauauj reirrrjim w tirw "r
head. There may be at times a alight
miiitnt. These are also suspicious
HlKn. Eya strain also gives rise to ln
l immatlon of the lids neuce styes
iud If tbla condition is constantly re
curring the sight should be properly
tested.
UnKktlled advice In tbe matter of the
eyesight abould b avoided, for perma
nent lujnry la easily effected If wrong
measures are taken. No child abould
ever be allowed to wear glaaaes until
doctor has essmlned tbe eyes and
baa recommended the ass of such.
To prevent eye strain tbe position Id
wjlch a child does Its borne work-la
regard to the lighting of tbe room
abould always b born If mind. Any
gin re on the book or-paper should be
avoided, and the light abould fall
ebllqoely from behind.

I LOOKING A YEAR AHEAD.
We are face to face with the
problems of another year. It
may bring us much or little, as
we choose. The question is,
what do we choose? In the
parlance of the street, "it is np
tons." '
Wehlng the Teeth Regularly.
If the child Is taught early to brush
its teeth It becomes a matter of habit,
which It carries tbrougb Hfe. and the
result la a fairly perfect art
If tbe first teeth ere brushed and
kept In good con dittos and a dentist
Flatted at least ones la si months
there la Utile danger of tbe secou'l
teeth being Infected or crooked.
It sometimes happens that a1 1 first
tooth remain In tbe gum too htng
thst to. after tbe second tooth shows
signs of coming through. This soiidl-
tlun should not be allowed to exist, ss
tbe first tooth la liable to Irritate the
gum. which will bvcoute sore aad lu
fected. and pus will be tbe result
If the first tooth does not fal out
naturally -ec tbs apnearane of the
second tbe child abonld be taken to a
dentist and the offending tooth re
moved. ' !
Crowded and Irregular teeth are of
tea the result of first teeth remaining
too km la the gum. ; .
