be urged against using the eyes tn a
proper manner tn a recumbent posi­
tion-such use is the least tiresome
and can be persisted Io for longer per
lods without damage than any other
position.
We all know that grave damage to
often done by reading tn a recumbent
posture, but therein possibly some oc­
ulists are at fault Had It been the
universal practice during tbe last
twenty or thirty years to give careful
directions how to read lying down In­
stead of saying to one and all. “You
must not read lying down." there
would be less near sight and better
eyes in the community than now exist
Three easily scolded errors cause all
tbe harm possible from reading lying
down, tbe first often leading to tbe
other two. They are insufficient or
wrongly directed light, short reading
distance and tipping tbe book out ot
tbe plane at right angles to tbe line of
vision.
If. however, every one reading lying
down will so arrange bls lounge or
bed that the light comes over the
head without striking tbe eyes and
falls well upon the page. If he will
hold his book at a long reading dis
tance and take care that the line of
letters shall be at right angles to the
line of vision, be can be sure of doing
bls eye» no more barm than if be
were sitting up.
More than this, there to much posi­
tively in favor of reading lying down.
Dr. Seller concludes. “The recumbent
posture allows more rest of the bodily
structures than tbe sitting posture,
and there Is greater possibility of rest­
ing and repair tn that position.’’—lx>n-
