MONOCLES IN EUROPE.
Believed to Have Originated in the British Army-Favored by Continental Officers.

Believed to Have Originated in the British
 Army-Favored by Continental Officers.
 In every capital of Europe the mono cle is common enough, says the New York World. It attracts no attention on the street. In row of men at .theater considerable proportion are sure to have it. Perhaps half the off, cers in the Ger man army wear mono cles. They are seen in abundance at any meeting of the French academy Even socialist deputies in France are not ashamed to go among their con stituents wearing them. A session of the English house of commons glitters with solitary eyeglasses. The single eyeglass is said to have originated among the officers of the British army. About the beginning of the century an order was issued that army officers should not wear Eyeglasses or spec tacles. It was supposed that they gave the wearers an unmilitary appearance The order caused severe inconvenience to many short-sighted officers, and one of them belonging to a crack regiment invented the single eyeglass; it's use was no contravention of the order which prohibited spectacles and eye glasses. It soon became very popular in the army and was afterward adopted. On account probably of this origin the single eyeglass is very generally worn in Europe by army officers. It is by some thought to give an aspect of de- termination and ferocity to the wearer, whereas eyeglasses lend an air of feebleness.

Junction of the citizen is to vote. The So
