Artificial EYAA.


"a prominent manufacturer Of art;fi-
cinl eyes has unburdencd himself on
what he considers grievance. He says
that the public, and therefore opticians,
will no longer pay the price for a good
and well made article and that the
market is being flooded with "cheap
foreign rubbish" He alleges that the
cheap eyes crack after very few weeks
wear. Pursuing the subject further
we are informed that summer time is
the best season for the sale of artificial
eyes. People are at that time of the year
more particular Us to their appearance
and discover more readily that the arti-
fetal eye is beginning to lose it's pris-
tine perfection. Another point is that
there are many people walking about
whose outward appearance suggests
that they are in full possession of both
visual organs but have not even one.
81 have fitted" said the manufacturer,
''scores Of people with two glass eyes -"
The innocent deception is the more sue
cessfully carried out owing to the fact
that the blind, from force of habit, no
doubt, look, or appear to look, one full
in the face when talking.

Only Three.

An honest mistake was that of a col
ored man in the south, whose former
master had allowed him the use of a
piece of land on condition that he. the
owner, should receive one-fourth of the
crop.
When the corn was ripe, the laborer
hauled three loads to his own house,
and none to that of the white man.
Then he went innocently up to the
great house to return his landlords
wagon which he had used in the haul
ing.
well, Frank" said the gentleman,
''where's my share Of the corn?"
You amt got none, sah," was the
sympathetic reply.
Haven't got any! Why, wasn't to
81 lave a fourth of all you raised?"
Yes, sab, but dey want no fourth.
Oere want but jess my three loads!'-

If it were only christian zeal that
actuated them, we believe they would
hare avoided making this statement
just on the eve of election.
But the circumstances indicating
that the church Tor at least some of
its members wanted finger in poll
tics, we concluded to accommodate
them.
If Mr.. Espy could be proven a con-
sistent loyal christian, of course all
charges against him would be ground
less.
We don't care how much the church
chose to pay Mr.. Espy for his valuable
service.
The question is, did he render the
services at all?

had a colt Of which she was more than
usually fond. One day the colt fell into a
ditch and broke its leg. The animal had
to be killed, and its mother was ~inconsola-

colt, and when it failed to come nothing

all efforts TO induce her to partake of food

standing by a barrel of water from which

head stuck into the water as far as she
could reach. There was no other conclu-
sion possible than that she bad deliberate
