ELKS’ LEAP YEAR DANCE PROVES TO BE BIG HIT A large attendance danced to the music furnished by the: Syncopators that the demand for heavy draft, horses and mules has been greater, and' the prices paid, higher, during the last two months, than at any time in history. —— EASTERN WINTER AF- FECTS HORSE MARKET East ‘St. Louis, April, 17.-¥Horses 112%-16c | f ..86a] | G A s and mules are selling easily and S.t: 1 top .notch prices on the ..KEast'. Louis market. The demand is greater than ever -before in history, and pre- vailing prices higher. g “Mr. Searcy of ‘the Campbell and | Reild Horse company, says that this is not a temporary inflation, but has been coming steadily and surely for the past ninety days. The ‘buyers from . the eastern cities, particularly those from the North Atlantic' sea- board, want heavy draft horses for city work, and are paying $275 to $350 for all they can get. when the Bemidji lodge B.P.O.E., No. 1052 entertained last night at an.in- formal leap year affair. The ladies carried out the leap year program to the letter, even to buying the “feed” after the dance. All who attended report a most enjoyable evening.

This course gives a specific learning an edge of all ailments and conditions of the human body that have anyt - orindirectly, with the eye, for the purpose o accurately prescribe and make lenses for the human eye. Optome kind of a drug to paralyze the eye for the purpose of fitting glasses.. required by law for an optometrist is the thing that makes i the innumerable causes before actually prescribing glasses. A few elec . 'some of tl_le simpler forms of errors of the human eye are - public an idea, to a small éxtent, of uses a E PIA ormsl Eye) $aln ¢ Hyperopia (Far Sighted) | . be’formed at the retina. ~-_ able amount certain numbers on the . ’ This is the normal condition of the & eye. 'When stch an eye looks at a distant object the image is formed exactly on the retina. The result is that the person sees perfectly clear and with comfort. Most of us have this kind eyes. ngep sugh an eye looks Lf, aqfiistant object the image would be formed back of the retina and things would . not be seen clearly if the crystalline lens inside the eye was not fqrced to change its shape and compensate for the error. These lens changes menn;.smin and quite commonly there is burning and itching of the eyes and headaches. The condition of farsightedness is remedied by the means of a properly selected lens which, when placed be- fore the eye, causes the image of any obeiiect looked at to be formed at the retina. - Y The - myopic eye is a nearsighted eye 'either because the eyeball is lgnggr‘thnn usual or because the’ out- side of ‘the eye has a sharper curva- tiife than the normal eye. The result is ‘that the image of a distant. object is formed ‘in front of the retina and therefore nothing at distance is seen ‘'with any clearness. e .7 The condition of myopia or,/'n'e'n'- ightedness js corrected through th 2 10l 8 1 o he . usé of a properly selected lens which, when ‘placed before the- eye, causes the image of any object In astigmatism we find a condition in which all parts of the object looked at are not seen with equal clearness. I you have astigmatism of -appreci- clock . face: will not be ‘as clear as B/ TASTIGMATIM. 4} ers. In astigmatism the image of A i SRy » . mental to anyone one part of the object is formed in a different position then is the re- mainder. g The ' condition of astigmatism is corrected by means of a properly gelected lens known as a cylinder which, when placed before the' eye ciduses the image of every portion of the object looked at to be formed This ‘diagram shows the existence of two curvatures; one being that around the outside of the object and ‘the .other that of a slice taken ont - of the object. These two curvatures are unequal. Eyes which are astig- matic have two curvatures which are unequal, and all lenses ground to cor- rect astigmatism must have two un- equal curvatures. Toric lenses have one surface which is composed of twg unequal curves, on the same side. . else.’ looked at to _ have the compounded curvatures using spherical, ‘different meridians and proportions. ‘examined, are all different. Lenses ma d requires the thorough knowl- ' ; hing to do, directly. £ exactly determining all eye trouble so asto trists do not use any The thorough course t compulsory for him to know trotypes showing . herewith printed 'to give the nd kinds of lenses prescribed. The Kryfitok is known as an invis- able bifocal. The distance portion is made of zme kind of glass, commonly known ak crown, while the reading addition is made by the fusion of a button of flint glass into a properly prepared = receptacle in the crown. When this'1éns is finished each of the surfages respectively has a continu- ous surface. i This is a form of lens which is used \in a simple camera and has the power of concentrating light and producing an image. The distance at Which the image is formed from the lens de- pends upon the curvatures of the sur- faces. There was a time when this form of lens was used for spectacle purposes but they are now surp. by the toric lenses. Some form of convex lens is used in every case of hyperopia or farsightedness. This form of lens is Known as a . toric or a meniscus. It has decided advantages over the' older forms of lenses: . This lens has-positive power and-could be used in a ¢amera for the purpose of taking .pictares. One surface has what is'known as a minug curvature whilethe: other. has a plus curvature. In a.convex lens of this fofm the plus curvature must exceed - the minus. m!minned‘in‘ln cakes of farsightedness. .. In.every. concave lens the thickness at.the center is less than that'at’ the edges.” A lens made in this man- ner is said to have two negative sur- faces, and the lens is commonly called a negative lens because it is used in all cases of myopia or nearsighted- ness. In myopia the eye ges, for one reason or another, too much power and this form of lens which takes away power is therefore always used in cases_of myopia. This lens is a diverging one ber cause it causes the light which strikes it to be spread out. If you were to hold such a lens in front of your eye and if your eye were normal everything would look much nearer and much smaller. Those who are myopia or nearsighted cannot see ob- jects very far away and therefore need a lens which will bring things apparently nearer. g \ “This is a diagram to illustrate what is known as a cylinder. On a small scale it has the shape of a piece of wood chopped off from the side of a big block. It is used to-correct astig- natism. This is known as a prism.

In such condition it may hap- pen that two objects are seen instead of ‘one and quite often a prism will alleviate the trouble. 8 i ' S In cases when an eye has one or more conditions described, it will require a.lens to cylindrical and prismatic lenses, all in de for the human eye, when properly : There being no two people in the world exactly alike, in their eyes lenses exactly fitted to one person is of untold value to that person, but detri- F . rs.
