A HAPPY MAN.
SANTA CRURz, (Cal.) }, June 8, 1887

SANTA CRURZ, (Cal. June 5, 1851.
DR.. Prentice, GIG Suffer Street, San
FranciSco-MY DEAR oCToR:-Please
allow ME to congratulate you Gas well
as myself on the success of your treat
ment in my case, AS told you when
we first met two months ago, 1 had
suffered untold agony for twenty-one
years, with the Piles, often being unable
to perform any manual labor for weeks
at time, being compelled to resort to
morphine to deaden the pain, life
seemed a burden and hardly worth
living, the constant pain and irritation
driving me nearly crazy. After trying
many remedies without any permanent
relief, I happened to see one of your
advertisements and concluded to try
once more, and thank the good Lord
and DR.. Prentice, am now once more
a well man, and again life seems worth
living. Ishould be glad if some of my
suffering friends of Norwalk, Florida,
and Scowhegan, Maine, could be treated
by you. Yours, with gratitude,
ROBERT WILLIAMS.

SHE NEVER SAW A mARDI-GRAs

II have lived in New Orleans all my
life, and never have seen Mardi-GraS.
From early childhood l have been
troubled with bad sight, and always de-
pended on my companions to inform
me of the subject, etc., and tell me
what was passing by. had always to use
the strongest kind of opera glasses in
in addition tony eye glasses, procured
from the leading opticians, and yet /
never saw procession of any kind to
my satisfaction, or near as well as other
people could, until the Menus process
sion of last week. l could then, for the
first time in my life, read all the signs
and posters, saw all the figures on the
fats and the minutest detail distinctly.
II could never see the music score
when seated at the piano, and could
not sing from sheet of music when
any one else held it. / have passed
friends and acquaintance on the street,
never being able to distinguish
them. l have sat in a street Car
and did not know him. could have
ridden all the way home with him. not
knowing who he was if he did not
speak. In fact, 1 could hardly men
ton the many instances of annoyance
my bad sight has caused.
have tried leading oeculists, and
got glasses from the first Opt
tons of the country. l have IN
derwent constitutional treatment, took
ever so many drugs, all to no purpose.
1 finally resigned myself to my sad fate,
and thought I'd make the best of it.
But at last l found perfect relief in
skillful treatment and application of
glasses by DR.. Prentice, and l shall
never know how to express my graft
tude for all ne has done for me. He
has most certainly given me pair of
new eyes. MRS. j. q. MILLER,
1912 st. Claude Street, n. o., La.
In 1885 DR.. Prentice invented and
copyrighted mathematical system for
fitting spectacles or glasses which is,
undoubtedly, the most accurate of any
now in use. 1t is used in England,
Holland and France. DR.. Gardner, of
Chicago, says it is the true principle.
DR.. Holmes SAYS he has found it very
useful. DR.. Fitch, trustee of the
Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary, relies
on it almost exclusively. With this
system the most delicate and sensitive
eyes can be fitted with glasses so &C
curately that they are relieved of all
strain. and thus they soon recover their
lost strength. 5pectacles fitted and
ground to order in this manner do not
change as ordinary glasses do, but they
wear for years and preserve the sight.

Unexpectedly upon tine Cave of the Winds,

to intelligently and instructiyeiy debate it,
His memory is remarkable He will quote
from speeches delivered decade ago, refer
to books and pamphlets which bear upon
the subject, and clearly state his own po-
sltion, giving amply sufficient reasons for
the conclusions which he reaches. There Is
an aggresSiveness and solder-like air about
him which is sometimes commented upon in
critical spirit; but those who know him
best, know that he is tolerance, charity and
cancellation persouifed. His friends cling to
him as leader, and his political opponents
respect him for his hon sty.
Congressman Bob Vance of Connecticut,
democrat, and Richard Guenther of Wis
consin, republican, are the closest friends in
the House. They are both blondes, both
handsome. bright and lovable. Moreover,
We're it within the bounds of propriety, it
might be said that they are given to play
ing prankS and practical jokes upon each
other, like college lower classmen. For ln-
stance: Guenther recently returned one
evening from an extended visit to his home
at Oshkosh, Wisconsin. After going to his
hotel, he started to call ON Vance. On tine
way, he met Amos Cummings, and they
walked together up Fourteenth street to-
ward Vances rooms. On the way they
met crowd of colored boys, ranging in
ages from TO l6 years. They were march
ing with wooden muskets and shrilly bow

to march up III front of Vance's resdenc :,

Hurrah, hurrah, hurrahl Tigerm The
little fellows carried out their instructions
to the letter, and were paid for their serv-

Guenther had returned. The next morning
the New York SWh and the World contained
announcements of the great serenade which
had been rendered Vance 'by the TT ltter

Guenther came down stairs to breakfast
next morning, he was handed all express

STATESMEN AS CHUMS.
ATTACHMENTS FORMED IN CON
GRESS BETWEEN GREAT MEN.

A Pair OF Senatorial Chums-The
Blonde Twins of the House-Senator
Stanford to Retire-The Smallest Man
in Congress
WASHINGTON, Sept. 22-There is no
more likable or lovahle man in either hou, Q
OF congress than Senator Sawyer, of Wis
consin. He has been i'll recently, and COM
PEELED TO absent himself from the Senate,
much to his impatient regret. His former
twin senator, Stanford of California. has
long absented himself, and Sawyer has
missed him very much. Together, they
were the portliest men in the Senate, and
would outweigh Salisbury, Spooner, In
gals and Brown combined. Sawyers
wealth of waist and breadth of beam would
be ample for aldermanlc instead of senator
lal position. He is splendidlv companion
able man, possessed of fascinating converse
tlonal powers. Although past ~ years of
age, he Is not garrulous; but as he grows
older he grows fonder of the companionship
OF his friends, especially his younger ac-
quantances He has secured the passage
of more pension bills than any other two
senators; and has many pensioners upon
his private bounty. Generous to a fault,
nothing but safe and sagacious investments
have saved him from penuryN His entire
salary is expended in the employment of
clerks who aid him in his pension work; and
III addition thereto, he gives away about
$1,000 annually in small charities. Henever
makes speech. 1t would be impossible for
him TO do so; and that is the reason he never
made the effort Uncle Philetus is not an
igtisf dtuuS hunter. He will not try inn
possibilities. Recently when asking con-
slderation of pension bill, he undertook to
briefly announce the merits of the case.
Beck of Kentucky objected to his state
ment, saying: II am willing to vote aye
upon the question without debate. "
Sawyer sat down, and the bill passed with
out any questions from any source. Aft
erward Sawyer went to Beck and plain
lively said: "Why did you object to my
| statement" Because replied Beck, 'if
We ever let you get started. you'd talk ali
night" 1t was a bit of goodNhumored sar-
casm from the Scotch American senator
which meant in liberal translation: Sawyer,
you can't make a speech, but you are hon
est and we'll vote for what you want any

Ignorance of Sanitary Principles.
From the Popular Science Monthly.

From the Popular Science Monthly.
In his census reports DR.. Billings esti-
mates that in the United States 100, 900
deaths occur every year from strictly pre-
ventable diseases alone. This Is unquestion-
ably a very moderate estimate, and, II there
are reckoned also twelve cases of serious
illness for every death, we see what great
amount of suffering results from ignorance
OF sanitary principles But how is this
ignorance manifested Are not our archi-
tects competent to deal with the problem of
household sanitation 1t will be said, per-
haps, that it is the province of the archi-
tect to direct the entire work of house
building and TO arrange every de-
tail of the fittings. But it should be
considered that the science OF santa
ton is broad and comprehensive. Years of
study and OF experience in sanitary work
are necessary for proper understanding Of
the subject. 1t is perhaps unfortunate that
there is so little in the severe and I'M
pleasant details of this work to commend it
to those whose tastes have led them to the
study of the more attractive principles of
artistic construction and the science of
esthetics. An architect should have the
soul of an artist, but there are few men
whose nature is so broad as to combine
truly artistic tastes with love for the de-
tails Of difficult mechanical work. involving
the necessity for undertaking comprehen-
sive and scientific research IL is the province
of the engineer to engage in an occupation
of this kind. His natural inclinatlons and
his rigid training In scientific pursuits fit
him especially for the direction of matters
relating to drainage and sewage disposal.
