German
Syrup"

Here is an incident from the South
Mississippi, written in April, 1890,
just after the Grippe had visited that
country. II am a farmer, one of
those who have to rise early and
work late. At the beginning flast
Winter l was on a trip to the City
ofVicksburg, Miss. where got wen
drenched in shower of rain. I
went home and was soon after seized
with dry, hacking cough. This
grew worse every day, until had
toseek relief. consulted DR.. Dixon
who has since died, and he told me
to geta bottle of Boschee's German
Syrup. Meantime my cough grew
worse and worse and then the Grippe
came along and l caught that also
very severely. My condition then
compelled me to do something. I
got two bottleso of German Syrup. I
began using them, and before taking
much of the second bottle, was
entirely clear of the Cough that had
hung to me SO long, the Grippe, and
all its bad effects. l felt tip-top and
have felt that way ever since"

HOW LENSES ARE MADE.
The Art of Manufacturing Spectacles Re-
duced to Science.

Inc ATT OF MAN SpSStdCAts ne
duced to a Science.
The art OF making spectacles, says
the Popular Science Monthly, has been
reduced to science. The bit of glass
to be formed into lens is fastened by
means OF pitch to a small block OF
hard rubber SO that it may be more
readily handled. 1t is ground by be-
ing pressed against arapidly revolving
metal tool. whose curvature is equal
and opposite to that desired in the lens.
This is known as the trough tool and
Is made of cast iron. 1t is mounted
on a vertical spindle aud is kept
moistened with emery and water.
Several grades of emery are used IN
succession, changing from coarse to
fine as the grinding proceeds. AS a
result OF this process the glass has a
rough surface and is no longer trans
parent 1t is now transferred to the
Zine tool" This is made OF brass aud
has its surface as true as possible. 1t
is compared from time to time with a
standard curve in order to insure ac-
curacy.
In this second grinding the AFRAID
ing material is rouge Carefully cal
cined suiphate OF irony. Finally the
lens is polished by being pressed
against a piece OF cloth powdered with
rouge and fastened tothe rotating tool.
The glass is now loosened from its
block, turned over and the reverse
side OF the lens ground. When this
has been accomplished the lens must
be cut down to the proper shape for
mounting in the spectacle frame. 1t
is placed on a leather cushion and he'd
firmly in position by a rubber-tipped
arm while acknowledges cutter pass
ing around an oval guide traces sim
liar oval on the glass below.
The superauous glass outside the
oval is removed by steel piecers. the
rough edges are ground smooth on
Scotch wheels and the lens is ready for
mounting. The glasses for small tele-
scopes. microscopes, burning glasses
and the like are ground in the same
fashion.

buy is the one that does you the

Which one is it?
Sometimes, it may be . matter

DR.. Piercc's Favorite Prescription,
there's no room for doubt. It's .
matter that can be proved.
With the facts before you, it's
an insult to your intelligence to
have something else offered a.

And here's the proof !: Among
all the medicines that claim to cure
woman's peculiar weaknesses, irreg-
ularities, and diseases, the Favor
ito Prescription" is the only one
that's guaranteed.
If it doesn't do all that's claimed
for it, if it doesn't give satisfaction
in every case, you'll have your
money back.
