TWO sIces TO THE QUESTION.
In Fitting Spectacle Bows to the Ears Both
Must BE Considered.

Having selected a pair of frames with
q nose piece of the right height and
spread to bring the glasses into the
proper position, and having had them
fitted with glasses made in accordance
with the oculist's prescription, the OPP
tician now proceeds TO fit the completed
spectacles to your head. You might put
them right on and wear them off just
rs they are.
But, no; he reaches over and places
the bows over your ears himself. Then
he tries the spectacles gently, rs they
rest upon yOur nose, taking hold at the
outcr ends cf the frame, here the bows
hinge Not just right. He takes them
off again and smooths the bows ont be-
tween the tips of his fingers and changes
their shape a little and tries them again.
Better, but not Just right yet. He takes
them again and smouths ont and bends
in little more You observe as he hands
them to you, a. he does this time, that
the bows have not only been changed
somewhat in shape, but that now they
vary in sweep and curve. You put them
on and find that they fit perfectly and
very ycoihIOttdplI. ne touCnes tIieh anu
finds them right and says SO.
But the bows are not alike, " you
say.
No." says the optician, "but they
are now made to fit. Your ears are not
just alike One Of them is little big
ger than the other, and they are not
placed exactly alike on the head "
What" you say, and he says: YES
There are very few of US that are perfect
or just alike on both sides. New

The Lightwood of Florida.

''Lightwood" is one of the most use
full southern products, especially in
Florida. where it is used by all sorts of
country folk, and particularly by the
hunters. A cordwood stick carried into
the wilderness will cut up into frag-
ments with which dozen meals may
be cooked. The rich, resinous pine
makes quick, hot fire, especially suit
ed to open air cooking 1t is a Florida
tradition that the chief who led the lit
tie band of Seminoles whom the United
States army long failed to run to earth
was on the point of agreeing to go with
his people to Indian Territory when
he suddenly asked whether there was
any hghtwood in that new land, and,
whon the answer was no, positively re-
fused to 90 further with the treaty. He
would not live in land without light

SMITH WAS IN LUCK.
Drew on the sultan, and, Thanks to tho

ROthschiIds, Got $4,000.
A large operator and speculator Of St
Louis, whose account with one friendly
bank had been often temporarily over
drawn, wanted sl0, 600 once for q GER
tain deal. his balance in bank at the
time being less than 800 The cashier
suggested that he should draw upon
some party not too near St Louis.
Smith said he did not know whom to
draw upon. "Oh, any one, said the
obliging cashier, 'as long as the party
is far enough away-that will give
time TO turn around. " Smith drew at
sight for $40, 900 on the sultan of Tur-
key.
The draft was duly forwarded by the
bank, reaching New York, whence it
was sent to a London correspondent. 1t
then came into the hands Of the Roths-
childs, who forwarded il to their Con
stantinople branch, where it was duly
presented for payment 10 the sultan's
chamberlain, the latter bringing it TO
his highness. who is this John
SMITH" said the sultan. "Don I know"
replied the chamberlain. DO we owe
him anything:" NO" replied the
other Then I'll not pay it. " replied
his mightiness. ''One moment, if
might advise, said the astute counsel
or. This draft comes through the
Rothschilds, with whom we are seeking
50, 600, O0o loan. Would II be safe,
under the circumstances, to dishonor

was paid. and no one was more aston
ished than John Smith Of st. Louis and

The democrats are very partial To de-
nials that don't deny. They will de
nounce" and "chalIenge" but they won't
sluarely and unequivocally deny. Mr..
Truscott's postal card which he has sent
out denonLcing the charge Of disloyalty
made by Ed Bourdette and challenging
proof. don't amount to anything. The
primary proof is Mr.. Bourdette's letter
which would 20 just as far as Mr.. Trus-
colts denial. if he made ore. but as he
has not done SO yet. it still stands undis-
puted. CorrObarative evidence Is not
hard tc get either Mr.. Truscott's posi-
tion in this matter was a matter Of com
mon report during the last campaign
and tie facts are, no doubt. known to
the editor of the Courier who was "on
Tho inside" of the democratic campaign
committee two years ago. Let Mr..
Truscott offset the proof already sub
mitted before he challenges Mr.. Moran
to produce more. \ good democrat like
Mr.. Bourdette would not say what he
has said unless be knew whereof he
spoke.

At all times should a sick person have the best of care. At no time should more be exercised than during the period of recovery-the time of convalescence.
 Strength is needed then. That is given by the food eaten, that is if it digests well. Notice how the doctor inquiries about how the food agrees with the patient. Agrees means digests. The genuine JOHANN HoFF's Malt Extract helps digestion; is SO palateable. That's the reason SO frequently the only malt extract given is JOHANN HoFF's. It invigorates and tones without exciting the system. A very refreshing beverage. Insist upon the genuine.
 See that signature "JoHANN HoFF" is or the neck label none genuine without this.'

Business Was More Active-Prices, Especially for the Changers, Closed Higher.
 tive than has been the rule and prices, especial ly for the Changers, closed, higher. The stock market is often a harbinger of industrial condi- tions generally and it would not be rash to sur mise that the same conditions are now beginning in the outside business world; conviction, namely, that we have at last touched bottom and that on the new basis of economy there is chance for renewed and profitable activity. This is in part suggested by to-day's bank statement, which reflects, even moro than last weeks state- ment, a decided check to the eastward move meut of interior deposits.
 Last week our total bank reserve increased but S91s 200; this week its not the gold export withdrawals not being included, was only S76l, 100. No less striking, in the same conuec- ton, ia the improving condition of the federal treasury's finances. Until this week, the net de- crease in the treasury balances has averaged half a million dollars day. But the total net decrease since last Saturday is Ssoo, ,45s, daily decrease of only $l50,ooO. Moreover, this i'm provement comes chiefly from the governments increasing revenue. At this city alone. 1t may be noticed, the weeks total of imported foreign merchandise increased $S s2S 03o over that of the week preceding, or fully 50 DOT cent.

Ninth Rehearsal To.n1sht-Sale of Seats to open Tuesday Morning Something about Miss Mary Louise Clary, the new American Contralto Seven Men in Line Last Night. The ninth rehearsal of the Gounod so- c.ety will take place this evening at Har- monie hall 7:45. The following card has been sent to all members:
 he three remaining .rehearsals for .The Messiah" will o. cur as follows: Monday. March n %,; and Monday, March is 7:45 D. m Note G the extra rehearsal for Thursday, March 8, made necessary by the succession of stormy Mondays. Every moment of these rehearsals will be ne eded to properly prepare us for the concert on March B. It Is of the utmost importance that every at these rehearsals. putting aside other engage be. Per order, The Board of Government.
 The sale of seats will begin tomorrow morning at g o'clock for both afternoon and evening performances. Purchasers are entitled to buy ten seats for each per formance. With Miss Blauvelt as soprano, Mics Clary ss contralto, MT. Davies as tenor, MT. Bushnell as basso, and select orchestra from Boston's best musicians, better production of the "Messiah" could not be asked for. The chorus this year Is evenly balanced and hsrmonIz :s perfectly. Its work will be only of the best. One year ego Mics Mary Louise Clsry, the new American contrslto who will take part in the "Messiah," made her debut in New York with Walter Damroech and the Oratorio society in Saint Ssen's s'Sameon and Dslilah." At that time it was said by all the leading critics and by Damrosch himself that she was the possessor of the most remarkably beautiful and powerful contralto voice that has been heard in this country since the days of Annie Louiee Cary, and that remarkable future was in store for her.
 Scarcely full season has relapssd since then and yet to day she is regarded on every hand as the great and coming con trslto of this country.
 Miss Clary's appearance Is as superb and as unique as her voice, and it has undoobt- edly aided greatly in her rapidly increasing success. She Is Kentucky girl, a native of Louisville and queen even among her queenly southern sisters. Tall and ss fine- ly moulded in form as a Grecian statue, she is at the same time a marked brunette. strikingly dark in hair and eyes, but with skin that is dazzlingly fair.
 "An in all" ss tue Louisville Courier. Journal said after her last appearance in tnat cItys nlss ClaIy, 1n the Juogment or many, bids fair to become to music what Mary Anderson was to the drama" And this from Louisville Is the perfection of praise.
 Her artistic career, although SO short, has been extraordinarily successful. She studied in New York for three years be- fore making her debut ss Delilah. After her successful interpretation of that role, DAmrosch WAS very enthusiastic in his congratulations. "Keep on as you have begun" he said to her, land you will be- come the best singer we have ever had one of the greatest in the world"
 The first man took his place in line yes terday afternoon. and by evening he was joined by six moro, for the long wait until tomorrow morning.

"Penny wise and Pound foolish" are those who think it economy to use cheap rosin and soda soaps, or washing powders of any kind, instead of the good old Dobbins' Elec- tric Soap ; for sale by all gro- cers since 1869, and used dur ing all that time by millions of intelligent economical wo- men who KNOW its merits and therefore use it.

HIS ELEVENTH ANNIvh RsARY
A Red Letter Day at Pastor Mfller,s Church Yesterday-Interesti xxx.

HIS ELEVENTH ANNIVERSARY Y A Red Letter Day at Pastor Miller,I Church Yesterday-Interestl Xxx ercises.
 Rev. A. P. Miller, B. D., pastor of the Dixwell avenue Congregational church completed eleven years of continuous ser vice yesterday, and great preparations were made for the anniversary. The first ger. vice was held at 3 p. m., and included sing ing by the choir and short address by the pastor. At the close of the service the fol, lowing persons were received into the church: Fred Hawley, J. W. wilmington, Edward Modesto. Cecile Bode, Bessie E and Bertha 0. Scott, Sarah Martin, John A. Adley, Thomas Nelson Baker, Henry Eli Williams, Victoria Gray, William P. Johnson, Lula Williams, Mrs. Charles Chandler, Thomas J. Price, Pauline Board- ley. Nellie Bell, L. BrowD, J. 0. Newton. The ser vice was closed by an original hymn prepared by the pastor for this occasion. Another year its course has run,
 And we are spared to see
 The glorious triumphs of Thy Son
 Who died to make us free.
 To-day. aga'n, we turn to Thee,
 Oh! Thou the "Living Bread"
 And may our hope forever be
 In Christ, our risen head.
 May those who join our ranks to-day
 Forever faithful prove,
 Thy word receive, Thy will obey,
 Exultant in Thy leve.
 To mourning souls Thyself reveal
 In love and joy and peace;
 Oh, may they ever, ever feel
 Thy loving sway increase.
 With stubborn hearts, do thou still plead,
 Until they yield to Thee;
 Oh! do Thou raise them from the dead
 Thy love and grace to see..
 And vixen our stormy voyage is OCT,
 Oh! may we see Thy face;
 And with Thee on th' eternal shore
 Enjoy Thy love and peace.
 In the evening Rev. Adam 0. Powell, pastor of the Immanuel Baptist church, whose church made the Dixwsll avenue church frsternal visit, preached very interesting sermon. The choirs of the two churches conducted the singing.
