The permanent loss of eyesight Is an Irreparable hardship- Even the
partial loss of eyesight Is a pitiable thine. No bodily organ netds more
careful care than the eyes. And we earnestly entreat you If your eyes are
troubling you even In the least degree to enlist the corrective cover of
slasscs without further delay. The motives that lead us to say this ore
neither selfish nor personal. We often have the dangers of neglecting eye
troubles so forcibly brought home to us that we know, much tetter than
most people, how.ufgently such words of warning are needed.
