Cross Eyes May Bc Cured.

Strabismlis or "cross eyes" are now
safely and almost painlessly corrected.
The desired result may be obtained by
the wearing Of proper spectacles in
early youth; but, according TO the Phil
adelphia Record, If the evil is not then
corrected, an operation later Oh will DO

The removal of a cataract" from tho
eye is one Of the most delicate opera
tons performed by the oculist. A cat
aract is formed by the lens of the eye
becoming opaque, so as to appear gray
ish or otherwise, when it shuts out the
light from the optic nerve. The oculist
of today cuts into the ball OF the eye
and removes the darkened lens, and
the optician supplies the defect by arti-
fetal lenses that make good the sight.
The demand for glass eyes is increasing
as the character and quality of the eyes
improve. Un5ightly eyeballs are now

muscles TO rotate the glass she'll that is

~ song OF the west.
l sing of the West. of the peerless West,
OF the Eden where plenty reigns.
Where the sunlight CLEANS on the crystal
streams,
And kisses the hills and plains.
Where the harvests laugh in the rancher's
face,
And the fruit or the bending trees
Is all atiush with a rosy blush
From the kiss Of the saucy breeze.
1 sing of the land where the miners drill
Bites deep into Natures heart,
Where the powder roars as it rends the
To the golden treasure apart.
Where the smoke from the mills rises up
and blends
With the clouds in it's darkening flight.
And the pack train winds round the tor
tuous bends
or the trail on the mountain height.
l sing of the wales where the flowers
bloom,
or the forests so deep and dark,
Where the wild deer plays through the
summer days,
And feeds In the grassy park.
Where the antlered elk in his majesty
The shade OF the pinion seeks,
And the mountain sheep In their antics
From the crags of the towering peaks.
I sing, Of the homes on the widespread
DidlllS,
Or the nesting mid the peaks, ,
Where the breeZes play in their merriest
way
And God through the sons bird speaks.
where the dove of peace with its snowy
wings
is perched on every hearth,
Where the hearts are light and .he eyes
are bright,
And the echoes are bright with mirth.
Then hurrah for the West! for the peer
less West!
Hurrah! for the home Of health!
Whore the valleys CLEAN like a golden
dream,
And the moutains are gorged with
wealth,
Where the people dwell in content and
peace
In the wilds or the busy town,
Where the sun is bright, and the stars M
night
Seem jewels In Natures crown.

OWOSSO. FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1898.
The Republican Ticket.

Unitedly the republicans of Owosso
have met in convention and placed In
nomination one Of the strongest tickets ever
presented. We say this not because they
are republicans but because. realizing, as
the people did, the necessity for an abso-
lutely business-like administration of the
city government, they have laid aside their
desire to honor friends. pay political debts,
further political ambitions and all other
side issues, and nominated men who, in
themselves, their business and their lives
are and have shown themselves to be the
men who have the courage and firmness to
perform the duties which are demanded by
the peculiar conditions surrounding Owos-
so, and to carry forward the public enter
prise and improvements that the citizens
have long desired and some of which have
been decided on by a vote of the people.
Almost every man on the city and ward
tickets has financial interest in the proper
conduct of affairs; almost every one has
lived In the city for years, has such per-
sonal interest in the city as he has in his
own family and home; many of them have
been leaders in the movements and methods
that have made Owosso the most prosper
Gus, progressive and sound city of its size
in the state of Michigan, and who will aid
in pushing it forward to place equaled by
but few cities in the State. Individually
the men are approachable and we'll in
formed, and represent in the highest sense
the manhood needed in public officials.
Collectively they are such men as will work
harmoniously and intelligently for the well
fare Of the city, laying aside the particular
wishes of any section of the city when the
general good should be considered, and do
ing away with many of the disagreeable
forces that have been an occasional occur
ence and hindrance to the work of the coun-
ell.
The policy OF the republicans, II elected,
will be for the aiding and securing of man.
ufacturing Institutions, for the careful con-
sideration of all bills and claims against the
city, for a recognition In county and state
affairs, consistent with the wealth and i'm.
portance of the corporation, for strict en-
forcement of all laws and ordinances, and
for the accommodation in the Offices of the
citizens and proper and careful considera-
ton OF the wishes of the people as expressed
by petitions or orally to their representa-
lives.
The ticket is worthy the vote of every
person interested in the advancement OF
OwOss0.
The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1898-04-01

For mayor, the republicans have placed
in nomination young, active, and success
full business man; one whose every interest
is connected with the healthy and continued
advancement of Owosso, one who is capa-
BILE of appreciating the position and wishes
of all classes of citizens, and who, by an
association with them can fully understand
their ideas; one, who upon any and all oc-
casions, could properly represent the peo-
pie and make friends and secure favors of
benefit to all. He is a good presiding off,
Ger and could secure thorough and careful
consideration of public matters without al
lowing personalities and trivial matters to
make hasty or unwise action.
Willis e. Hall is a typical American, a
true friend, and capable official. We
bespeak for him large vote and hearty
support, when elected.
