The Coinage of Money

fer on minor questions
The Coinage of Money
We hold that the coinage of money Is a
matter of domestic concern, with which
our country can safely and fully deal with
out the interference and without the con-
sent of any foreign nation; that it is not
matter concerning which we must look to
the consent of other countries; that we
must declare and maintain our financial in
dependence just as we declared and have
maintained our political independence of
foreign countries.
That we should have an international
money is not necessary. even if 1t be de-
sirable. There has never been an interna-
tional money in the history of the world.

FOR EVERYONE TO KNOW.

There is as much science in fitting glasses
as there is in prescribing medicine. You do not
go to blacksmith for set OF false teeth; then
why not have your eyes attended TO by some
one who has made study of the eye and its
defectsl
One pair of spectscles that fit are worth
twenty pairs that don't.
You cannot prescribe spectacles by rule, as
every case has its peculiarites
Eye strain has caused more headache than
all other causes combined.
No part of the system will stand any more
hard work than healthy eye that is perfect in
all its meridians. Is it not better when your
eyes trouble and bother you in your work, to
have them seen to at once, than to run the risk
Of your complaint settling into some disease
that will cost you lasting injury.
