Eye strain should be the first thought suggested by any complaint of headache, for in our day and civil ization it is by far the most common cause of that symptom, says a recent writer in th Scientific American. It enters as a factor into the causation of nearly all headaches not due to pyrexia, toxo-mla or dis-asos of the I. ram or its membranes. The simpi existence, inereiore, snould sugtf st eye strain, but frequently a caiefu inquiry as to the manner and time of occurrence of the attack and the loca tion of the severest pain will be al- mostconclusive as to the origin of the trouble. Often it comes on whenever the eyes are used, and is absent when the eyes have had a proper season oi rest. The occasions of most severe re quirement in the direction of eye work are the doin; of -anything re-julnn-,' accurate near vision, taxing both the accommodation and the convergence, or traveling, shopping, attendance at public gatherings, which entail more use of the eve than the patient is at the time conscious of, and often un h-r unfavorable conditions. In hyperopia in young people, the accommodation is in excessive use sr long as the eyes are open and the at tention fixed on any visible object, and hyperopia is the most common cause of constant headaches. The writer was formerly su'iject to a con stant headache whenever confined tc the house, and regarded it as caused by breathing vitiated air, until it was quite cured by the correction of hi- hyperopia astigmatism. Many persons have the same idea as to the causation of the headaches they always experience when attend inur the theater or other places of pumic amusement, ana which arc really due to eye strain. Ot hers as cribe these headaches, and those ex perienced in traveling and shopping, to exhaustion. This is nearer the truth, only they commonly have in mind a condition of general exhaus tion, whcieas it is largely one of local exhaustion of the special nervous ap paratus concerned in the act of see ing. Congestion, irritability or inflam mation of the eves and their append ages, should always suggest the sus picion of eye strain. A single attack or manifestation of this kind has no luclal significance, but repeated at tacks of inflammation, or prolonged congestion, or irritability are exceed ingly suggestive of a continuing cause, cind the most common of these is the one now under discussion. So case of chronic inflammation of the mar gins of the lids, or of recurring con- unctivitis, or repeated sties has jus tice done to it until it has been care fully investigated for eye strain. Persons at the period when they icgin to feci the effects of the loss of lccommodation in presbyopia, or ab- olute hyperopia suffer from repeated attacks of conjunctivitis, which they commonly ascribe to "taking cold in the eyes," but which are cut short by use of the appropriate lenses, and which, if unchecked, would tend to es tablish a chronic catarrhal condition, which is a chief discomfort in the ives of many people. A strange thing with reference tc eye strain is that it often exists to an exceptional degree without showing ny symptoms in the eye. The pa tient will often say that the eves are perfectly good and have never caused any irritation. The reflexes seem tc have settled in some other place. This is an interestinc nat,hnlniriri and physiological question. Mistaken J'leasantry. 'in selling goods," said a success ful canvasser, "you must not be con tent with selling to the people whe .vant them; you must persuade th( rest to want them also." Many s crafty salesman feels that the secret of success lies in describing his goods so that they shall seem "all things tc all men." and woe be to the innoceni and jocose buyer who brings down upon himself the flood of such 8 man's pertinacity. Says a traveler it Malta "Going to the quay, we made oui passage by energetic pushing through the lines of vendors of cigars, to bacco, lace, oranges, and sponges. One man, with canaries in cages, stopped us at the water's edge with "'Want a canary, sir?' " 'Are they for eating?' I asked him, to get rid of his importunity, and in a spirit of Mark Twain jo cosity. " '.No, no! They are for singing. " 'Ah, if that's what they're foi we don't want them.' "A brilliant thought struck th man, and he bolted after us shotti ng "'es, yes! They are for eating. ery good pie! Buy the lot?' "Leaving his cages in charge, of ar assistant, he made off to tell the ca nary venaors tnac nere was a mar who ate canaries, and might buy al! there was in Malta, and a tine tim we had with cages until we steamed away."

THE GOVERNMENT TESTS ESTABLISH ITS ABSOLUTE SUPERIORITY. (Data from the lattst Official U. S. Government JUfert on Baking Powders. Department of Agriculture, Bulletin j. page jga.) Royal is placed first of the cream of tartar powders, actual strength, 160.6 cubic inches of leavening gas per ounce of powder. Every other powder tested exhibited a much lower strength than the Royal, the average being 33 per cent. less. Every other powder likewise showed the presence of alum or sulphuric acid. The claim that this report shows any other powder ot su perior strength or purity has been denounced as a falsehood by the Government officers who made the tests. Avoid all baking powders sold with agift or prize, or at a lower price than the Boyal, as they invariably contain alum, lime or sul phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome. Careful Marketing.
