pain. .... ..
Children that show disinclination to
read and do not keep up with their
classmates in school, in the majority
OF cases, have trouble with their eyes
that prevents them from seeing dis
tinctly, and when they try to read
causes headache and pain i'll their
eyes. Such children should have
their eyes properly fitted, and they
will soon show improvement in their
studies.

" Philadelphia Is good enough for me. but /
like your tailqrs better. | needed a tailor in
Nantucket this summer, and thore is only
one there who makes any fuss about himself.
He has been making clothes for Nantucket
salts for many years now, and his hair and
whlskers are laSy but his methods are not.
III dropped into his shop TO have my meas.

me. One OF them was Nantucket native and
the tailor wanted 10 give him good fit. He
laid the native on the the floor, stretched out
his arms. and with piece Of chalk outlined

native took II as matter Of course. As he
walkod out he said: I'm be in in the latter

i want a particular good fit'
Now what do you think Of that? Well the

A FENDER THAT FENDs.

We have pleasure In saying a word with
relation to the production OF the Conso-
lidated Car Fender Company.
This concern makes car tenders and
they are OF the kind that appear to
fend. II Is their fender that is recon-
mended by the City Council committee
for use on our trolley service, their re-
comm endation being limited to the Con-
solidated fender and the JELLY fender.
Both these tenders are home produc-
tions, representing local research, inven-
tion, industry, and capital. 1t is a mat
ter OF pride that the home products
should have made such victory in the
interesting fender competition. The JEL-
LY fender, we believe, represents some
what the encouragement given by the
Union Railroad Company officials to the
inventor in perfecting what was hoped
would be satisfactory fender. the no.
tlon that the trolley company has not on
its own account sought TO solve the fen.
der problem being erroneous as their en-
terprise and expenditures In this direction
would probably demonstrate IL the facts
and figures were known. The Consoli-
dated fender, however, is fender OF al
ready large actual manufacture and use. /,
is built at the works OF the Narragansett
Machine Company, although we do not
understand that that concern has any in.
terest in it except to manufacture It for
the fender company.
The Newark and Jersey City services
are quite generally equipped with this
fender and on the lines in the former city
II is credited with having saved not less
than forty-seven lives already, its use cover
ing only period OF about six months.
At any rate no lives have been lost and
only one minor injury done by the New
ark cars since their equipment with this
fender. in 81. Louis, too, the fender has
been introduced and is highly praised
for the practical liie-saving service IL has
already done there.
Photographs OF the Consolidated fend.
er in operation are shown in THE NEWS
window. They look good enough to get
in front Of, to be taken up by, and
"saved," " just for the fun OF the thing,
and the endorsement OF the device for
practical use seems to be unexceptionable.
