The Great Number Of Mendicants That Depend

This being headquarters of the pension DEPART

from other counties gradually come In here. and
in the event OF death their children are sent to
the Soldiers Orphans Home from Marion

more inmates there from this county than the
statute allows.
A similar state of affairs prevails in regard to
the Insane Asylum. Unfortunates are sent there

as many deeds have been recorded, but the con-
siderations were generally smaller. While there
are no indications of anything like boom, the
tendency of the market is to still greater activi
ty Men who have money to invest recognize
the fact that there is no safer place to put is
than in indianapolis real estate.
During the week eleven lots were sold in West
Indian polis and six in HauRhville. About the
same number changed hands in each os the
other growing suburbs Of the city. The total
number of deeds recorded was eghty-seven,
representative q consideration of $215. 947.46
There were more transactions OF note than for
several weeks. The most important was the
sale of the lot South Meridian street,

Scientific Instruments for Determining Opt
cal Defects-How to Buy Spectacles.

Eyes" said John WINNER, the optician at NO.
10 North Pennsylvania street, II have just rs-
urned from Cleveland. where took a course in
the College of Opticians, and received my diplo-
ma at the hands of DR.. Julius King"
Mr. WINNER has long been practical dealer
in optical instruments. but felt that he should
spare no effort to get all possible knowledge and
experience in his line. ''Too great care" said he
to the reporter, 'cannot be exercised in the
choice of spectacles. The chief danger TO the
user in selecting them is that of getting them
TOO strong. have no hesitation in saying that
the hap-nazard plan of selection generally en-
ployed by dealers in spectaces is too frequently
attended by the worst consequences to eye
sight"
Mr.. WINNER is thoroughly familiar with the
adjusting and manufacturing of the most COM
plicated cylindrcallv combined lenses, and cor
reefs all detects of vision that can be remedied
by the use of spectacles. The failure to obtain
relief in cases of defective eye sight is often the
result of improper correction BY incompetent
persons. Such cases be relieved by Mr..
WINNER. He has every possible appliance for
the proper execution of optical work, and q num-
Der of curious and interesting scientific inssru-
ments for determining visual defects. His place
of business is No. 10 North Pennsylvania strest.
