AN INVALUABLE FRIEND.
Care and Skill Required to Preserve
One OF God's Best Gifts.

O4S u GIQ Best G14bS.
There is one invaluable friend who serves
you faithfully, with uutiring patience and
fidelity, and yet when age or weakness
warns you to desist from abusing the power
that has made so great a part of the enjoy
ment Of life, too often the warning is un-
needed at the cost of supreme wretchedness.
This friend is the eye, and intellectually val
liable as Is sight, its preservation and intel
hgent utilization are usually rare. When
from increasing years, abuse OF nervous
prostration, the sight becomes weakened or
uncertain, guard and preserve it, and this
can only be done by one competent to ex-
anime the eyes and who has reduced his
profession to an exact science. Tne exam
lining oculist and opticians art is the most
subtle and delicate Of any of the mechani-
cal sciences, and the condition and ailments
of the eye can only be successfully admin
istered by the proper examiner, who has
mastered the principles and practice of his
profession, with the same fidelity to the
truths OF nature and science which renders
the great surgeon or physician eminent in
the healing art. The scientific examiners
and expert opticians to the eye, who have
through long course OF varied experience,
justly earned reputation, and who, after
many years of practice in Chicago, now
temporarily located in Savannah, are Drs.

have delayed making this acknowledge
ment that / might thoroughly test their
adaptability and efficiency, and, having
done this to my entire satisfaction, l have
no hesitation in pronouncing them the most
perfect in every respect that / have ever
used. They give not only absolute clear
ness OF vision, but permit of long continued
use of the eyes in reading aud writing
without fatiguing them-a quality most
desirable and unusual ia artificial aids of
this character. The PROJECTIONS of the me-
| chanical adjustment of these glasses, both
for close and distant purposes, must be ex-
perienced to be fully appreciated.
You have, by your optical skill, afforded
me an ease and pleasure in reading and
writing for which feel grateful. Very
truly yours, j. P. RICHARDSON,

Every One to Own a Home.

The new plan of the Title Guarantee and
Loan Company will enable home seekers to
purchase houses already erected, or build
new ones, according to their individual in
clinations The company demands an adj
vance payment equal to a reasonable Dor
centum upon the value of the property,
and allows the purchaser to pay the re-
mainder in monthly installments during a
period of years. This system is an admira-
bic one and meets with great favor. Prin-
cipal and interest are included in the
monthly payments, which need not be
greatly in excess of q reasonable rent for
the premises. Three fine houses belonging
to this company, now in process of con-
struction, will soon be offered. The Saw
ings Bank OF the Title Guarantee Com
pany, at 1876 Congress, offers to persons de-
sirous of owning their own homes a good
starting point. When it is considered That

advantages may be easily comprehended.
Even dime day will foot up quite a re-
spectacle amount in the course of a few
years.

Port Statistics Being Compiled for the
River and Harbor Committee.
Frank E. Rebarer, clerk OF council, is
compiling post statistics to be presented by
Representative Lester and the citizens COM
mittee to the river and harbor committee
of congress. Mr. Rebarer says that
among the important shipping statistics of
the year 1889, he has found, so far, that the
exports from Savannah exceed the exports
Of 1888 by over 100000.
1t has been suggested that Mr.. Reb arer
accompany the visiting committee when it
goes to Washington to lay the port statistics
before the river and harbor committee of
the House, as Mr. Rsbarer has been COM
piling the port statist cs for the past four
teen years, and Is thoroughly comversant
with the growth of the city's commerce.
His report which was placed before the
naval site commission last year was a pains
taking one, requiring considerable research,
but be expects to make the one to be laid
before the river and harbor Committee even
more interesting and with fuller details
than that one of last year.

Secondhand Pianos and Organs.

One of the serious problems in the piano
trade is how to dispose of the second hand
instruments which are taken in exchange.

ing to satisfy the customer and ultimate loss
to the dealer. Years ago we met this diff
