for the coming race of specialized people.
An oculist used to be one who, after the
study of medicine, first devoted a num-
Der Of years to Its general practice, and
then, knowing all the general patholo
gical conditions in connection with the
entire body, would become an ophthal-
mic surgeon, treating diseases of the eye.
'At the present time Oculists are made
to order at once, with spectacle adjust
ment attachment the main feature of
support. The opticians not to be outwitted,
established a factory grind system of
men called graduate opticians If a
country jeweler would buy a bill of goods
or pay for a course he could come into
their establishment and they would make
him D. r. doctor or refraction), di-
ploma included. Returning to his coun-
try town a graduate he would fit the
whole community to specs So, in like
manner, the enterprising, money desiring
physician in the interior can visit the
city and be sent home an 'oculist' in
thirty or sixty days.
1 had one of these good men bring a.
letter to me several months ago. A
physician in good standing where he ra-

looks at me her eyes through the glasses
which she wears seem twisted enough to
draw the cork from that champagne bot
tie the butler is holding
IT assured her sympathetically: No, she
is but one of the spectacle victims, and
YOU have only to look about this table,
and you will see the majority ogling in
the same way
MY friend informed me after closer
observation that 1 was right, for of the
entire number of guests at the table
more than three-quarters Of them were
harnessed with spectacles or eyeglasses;
the young, the old, the pretty, the home
ly had them on. The woman in question
speaking to me, and who had been the
subject of our conversation, was trying
to look at me with one eye through its
glass, and, her other eye being misfitted
by her oDtician, was trying to look
around the corner or anywhere else to
avoid the discordant vision the glass pro-
duced on the retina.
IF one days close observation is given
to the specialized victims the truth of
my statement regarding the future of the
coming race will scarcely need proof.
1t is an incongruous sight to see on
crowded Fifth avenue so many beautiful
ly gowned women and we'll groomed men,
evidently sticklers about we'll fitting
things and yet carrying astride their

neved by glasses these can eventually be
dispensed with. In no other instance can
glasses be placed aside when once put in
use, for the other defects are deforma-
tive and remain such.
There is still another condition where
in glasse are used, the squirt, wherein
the muscles of the eyeball alone are con-
sidered, and prisms are the kind of glass
es used, correcting such conditions where
the eyes turn too much inward, outward,
upward or downward. Other glasses en-
ployed in defects of the eyes are convex,
concave and cylindrical. Tinted or col
ored glasses 1 have not spoken of, for
they are supposed to and should possess
nc power, but serve only as a protection
to extreme light.
Now, when there Is defect of vision,
If it is properly corrected on annulled, the
person receives perfect sight by compen-
sation for lacking part, and the glasses
so adapted will remain suited for a num-
Der of years. If not adapted with abso-
lutte certainty, the sight will adapt itself
to the glasses instead, causing additional
discomfort and the necessity for frequent
change.
AT dinner the other evening my WIS.,
avis remarked, soto voce, to me:' Pray

sided, had come on for information
how to treat eyes and fit glasses-a man
sixty years of age. He took his thirty
or sixty days course, and no doubt by
this time all the farmers in his vicinity
are ploughing crooked burrows with mis-
fitted glasses.
The majority of the human family
are born with unimpaired eyesight. This
remains so in such cases until the age of
thirty-eight or forty, when the sight be-
comes defective from natural causes.
Congenital defects, SUCH as persons are
born with, are called, emitting medical
terms, nearsightedness, farsightedness,
or that condition of irregularity in the
curvature of the front part of the eye
wherein one meridian is perfect and its
opposite angle is imperfect Another
condition requiring glasses is weakness
of the ciliary process muscles, which
seem to give out when the eyes are used
for any consecutive purpose, such as
reading, writing, or any other close
work. The letters or objects looked at in
this case become blurred, wavering, in
distinct, or apparently running together
in one black line; continued use of the
eyes without relief, causing Inflammation
of the thin membrane covering the eye

weakness Is properly overcome or re-

A few generations more and the I'M

Such is the startling prophecy of DR..

persons who wear glasses that, If his
theory is correct, in the near future
oculists' offices will be as numerous and
necessary as drug stores.
More eyes are injured by the in1udici-
Gus use of glasses and haphazard meth

Matthez, when asked for the explanation
of his theory. There is nothing so sim

The price of wheat is So cents
at this point today, and the par
ties who watch the market think
it would be a good thing for the
farmers if the price went to SOC
SO that foreigners would buy up
the surplus which is said to exist
in the United States to the amount
of one hundred million bushels.
Crop statistics published by grain
buyers claim that the visible sup
ply in primary points was this
year over 100000 bushels Aug l
Last year 100000 on Aug l.
The remainder in farmers hands
is said to be fully 100000 bush
els. Low prices are expected for
the crop until the foreign demand
increases. The plan advocated by
J. j. Hill to get Chinese to eat our
wheat is regarded as the only SOL
ution of the price matter under
present conditions.
