That they are easily strained and easily weakened? That different tasks put varying burdens on them? That either too much or too little light affects them often in unndticed ways? That proper erti. ficial light often prevents or postpones the need of glasses? Proper light not only saves eye-strain; it also prevents costly or painful mistakes. If saves many a child from failure in school, many a housewife from head aches, many a husband from eye-fatigue carried next day into the office. And with electric current so cheap today, there really is no need of inadequate lighting for reading, for the stairs, for dart closets, 'or any purpose which increases the com fort end pleasure of daily living.
