Sudden double vision without any apparent cause is very frighten ing. Regardless of the cause, it indicates that the two eyes are not pointing in the same direction. In the cases of fatigue or drugs (including alcohol), there is interference with the brain's ability to control and coordinate the muscles. Normally, the symptom will disappear as soon as the cause is alleviated, i.e. rest, cessation of drug intake. A more serious matter is dou ble vision which occurs suddenly 1.. and is present at all times. A possible cause could be a small stroke, hemorrhage, or brain tumor. In most instances, appropriate medical treatment will gradually restore normal vision. In the meantime, as a temporary aid, your optometrist can make special glasses to keep the double vision under control. The interest of better vision from the office of: A.F. Downum, Jr., O.D.

The dessert becomes the holiday centerpiece. Fun With Food From The Herald Kitchen By MILDRED HUSKINS There is still plenty of time to make your holidays sparkle this season by turning the spotlight on a dazzling dessert. When you are making your plans for the holiday meals, and perhaps, a small party or neighborhood get-to gether, remember that dessert is the real highlight of most such festivities. Even though you have cans and jars of seasonal goodies all prepared, create something special for dessert but do it the easy way since time of the homemaker is of the essence. We have two luscious desserts today dressed in festive garb. They are made with such quick-and-simple convenience products as a non-dairy whipped topping, gelatin and coconut. The delicacies are so easy to "design" the children can get in on the merrymaking. These show-stoppers were created by Naomi Uman and Catherine Young, the chef owners of Sweet Home Catering in New York City. They are proud of their reputation for making highly original, quality cuisine on location, and lists as their clients such luminaries as Gloria Vanderbilt and Malcomb Forbes. In addition to "going to insane lengths to make food perfect," according to Ms. Uman, the two Culinary Institute of American graduates are ex cited over the sensual experience of food: they love the taste, touch and smell of it. The Christmas Tree Cake is no ordinary cake. It carries a surprising mix of fun ingredients such as dried apricots, walnuts, coconut and a. dash of brandy. Once as inbled, the tree-shaped cake covered with a light and icate blanket of snow in the m of Cool Whip non-dairy Iping. To add more holiday tter to the frosting, you Could tint the coconut flakes a cool pine green. $ Christmas Cranberry Mold is another holiday dessert made with convenience prod ucts. Cranberry sauce, Jell-0 brand orange flavor gelatin and non-dairy whipped top ping are picked as the cater ing firm's mousse-like dessert. Christinas Tree Cake 1 pkg.
