Easy Enou.b When He Didn't TRY

Driving over the hills, of western Jersey
last week, a reporter stopped at a lonely little
cabin, in front of which an old man was chop
ping wood, and inquired the distance to An
thony. The lank and aged citizen straight
ened up and attempted TO reply. He got as
far as:
''Tt-t-t-t-ttt," when his face grew red and
his grimaces became distressing. He stop
ped, took a full breath and tried again with
no better success He was thoroughly mad
now, and his distortions were really sugges-
tive of an attack of apoplexy. The old fell
low suddenly gave it up, and broke out with
out any difficulty:
"Darn ye, driveon and yell git there afore
I can tell ye"
The reporter drove on-New York Sun.

A Fact Worth Knowing.
Astigmatism, which is the inability +,

Astigmatism, which is the inability to see
lines running in different directions
equally distinct, is the principal cause of
defective sight, and by far the most annoy
ing, and is only detected and corrected by
a specialist thoroughly acquainted and
practiced in the application of the scien-
tltlc tests. In such cases not only must
special lenses be provided, but they must
also be mounted just the proper way, as
the same lenses fitted any other way will
be positively hurtful.
Dr. G. w. Tibbits, the occulist and aurist
of 16 East First South street, is very sue
cessful in such cases. His Office is provided
with all the scientific tests, and he is thor
oughly competent and practiced in the use
of these tests, for full and complete cor
rection. People whose eyes trouble them
from optical defect will secure permanent
relief by applying to him, and will also save
money.

Bismarck to Give His Opinions

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Cable !
LONDON, April 5.-Almost concurrently
with the decision of the new German
chancellor, Count Won Caprivi, to abandon
the practice of furnishing official inspira-
ton to the utterances of certain journal 9
and to place respectable newspapers on the
same footing in regard to the pu blication
of political information, comes the an
nouncement that Prince Bismarck has CON
sented to publicly express his opinions on
political and other important questions at
frequent intervals through the press. AS
the ex-chancellor was the chief
exponent of inspired journalism
in Germany during his official career.
himself furnishing all of the inspiration
that was of interest to the world. it would
seem that Won Caprivi's decision is likely
to have little influence in shaping new de-
partures. On the contrary, it may be
safely assumed that what Prince Bismarck
may write over his signature will be more
widely read than anything that has ever
appeared unsigned in an Inspired news
paper presumably at his behest. 1t appears
quite plain that Bismarck as ex-chancellor
will be very sharp thorn in the Kaiser,s
side

Sir Samuel Bakers Views on Africa

LONDON, April Sir Samuel Baker. the
well-known African explorer, has written
letter to the Times indicting the British
government for a policy, which, he de-
clares, has led to the loss of all the nosi-
tions gained in Africa by enterprising and
Individual Engishmen. He iustifies the
alliance between Emin ard Wissmann. and
says it was only natural that Emin should

which will never initiate the fatal example
of the English force, advancing only to re-
treat. Sir Samuel points out how the Ger
mans may in few months regain the
equatorial province by founding a station
at Victoria nyanza and forming an alliance
with Myanga, King of Uganda, thus
eventually securing control of the White
Nile at Gondokoro, while I.aly will become
master of the situation by gaining posses
sion OF the border and Kassola. Khartoum
