1t Is my speciality to fit glasses in such a
manner that they relieve the eyestrain perfec-
ely, fitting the eye with spectacles that you car
zee with ease and comfort, thus preserving the
eye. In examining the eye ouly the latest and
most improved methods and instruments are
used.
Physicians especially are invited to call and
investigate my methods of correcting errors
of refraction. Many cases of headache, neural

of the refracring media of the eye, and are re-
lIeved at once upon the application the proper
glasses. Ninety per cent of the people over
10 years of age need glasses and 80 per cent OF
the 80 need them for distance.
Glasses are not always given to improve
eyesight, but to relieve undue strains; to as
.ist nature. Thousands of eyes are ruined
yearly. Seven persons out ten have neither
eyes alike and one out of twenty astigmatism !;
hence the necessity of testing each eye separ
ately, Special attention Is given to any !ne
quality that may exist between the refraction

Optical science has made many rapid advan.

Special care should be taken in selecting the

Washington, Mag 8th, 1899.
President Mckinley has gone to the
Virginia Hot Springs where he and
Mrs. Mckinley will remain for about
two weeks. He is not sick, and, al
though the lest is taken by order of
his physician, it is more in the nature
of an exemplifcation of the adage
<'An ounce of prevention is worth
pound of cure" than because it is an
absolute necessity at this time. He is
run down and has recently been
sufferer from rheumatism, and 1t
seems an impossibility for President
to get any rest in Washington. In case
there should be any urgent necessity
for his presence, he can reach Wash
ington in eight hours. Before leaving
President Mckinley approved the re-
port made by the Military Court Of
Inquiry, which will at once be made
public. There is no truth in the ru-
NOR that Gen. Miles is either to be re-
moved from the command of the
army or contaminated as aresult of
the report.
Judging from the latest Philippine
advices, the end is near, and no sur
prise would be felt in official circles
should Aguinaldo's formal surrender
occur any day. The rebels have &C
knowledged themselves fought to a
standstill, and were it not for the eff
forts of Aguinaldo and other Filipino
leaders to secure promises that they
would be given positions under the
local government, similar to those
given to Cuban officers in Cuba, the
surrender would have taken place be-
fore now. They will get no promises
other than the general one made by
the Philippine Commission, thatpend-
ing the final disposition of the matter
by Congress, the islands would be
given home rule to as great an extent
as might be found consistent with
American interests. The semi official
announcement that Admiral Dewey
contemplates an early return to the
United States is taken to mean that he
sees his services will not be needed
over there much longer.
Representative Gardner OF New
Jersey, who always has opinions o.
his own. said: ttI am not inclined te
think, with many, that Mr.. Bryan il
the weakest candidate the democrats
could put up. On the contrary, it il
my belief that he is infinitely stronge,
than any Eastern man the democrats
might name. Whitney or Gorma1
couldn't begin to pull the votes the
Nebraskan would command. / am alst
positive that Mr.. Bryan was defeated
in '96, not because of his advocacy o
silver, but because the working class
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1899-05-15

es were aroused to the necessity of
once more getting back to a protect
i've tariff. If silver had been the only
issue the democrats might have tri-
umphed, but they lost because the
wage earners repud1ated free trade,
which as illustrated by the Wilson bill
had come pretty near running the
country"
Secretary Wilson obtained so much
useful agricultural information during
his recent trip to South Carolina, that
he has arranged to leave Washington
this week upon similar trip, which
will include visits to Louisiana, Missis-
sissippi, Texas, and possibly several
adjacent states.
President KcKinley hasn't told any
body that there would be an extra
session of Congress, simply because
he has not fully decided to call one.
He has talked the matter over with
prominent republicans and has in
timated his belief that circumstances
will probably make it wise to call
Congress together in advance of the
regular session in December, and has
advised Senators and Representatives
to make their plans accordingly.
That is as far as the matter has gone.
There may or may not be an extra
session, but the probabilities favor
one. There is lot of work ahead of
Congress-, and if there is no extra
session, the House cannot hope to
get down to business before the LIST of
| January, because the new Speaker
could not get the Committees ar
ranged before that date. An extra
session would enable all that to be
done beforehand, and would I'M
doubtedly greatly expedite 1egisla-
ton of all kinds. Many think, also,
that it would be good politics to call
an extra session, not only because it
would shorten the Speakership con-
test, but because it would give more
time to act upon the financial bill,
which has been prepared by the
House Caucus Committee, and allow
it to get before the country and be
fully discussed and understood before
the excitement of the Presidential
campaign begins. The need of legis-
lation for our new possessions, es-
pecially Hawaii and Porto Rico, is
also an argument for an extra ses-
sion.
Secretary Alger has returned to
Washington and resumed his duties
In reply to questions, he said he hae
nothing to add to what he said il
Michigan about his being candidate
to succeed Senator Mcmillan.
AS rule, Republican representa-
tives resent the attempt, which they
say is being made by outsiders, to
make the Speakership contest &
sectional fight of the West against the
East, and present indications are tina

the attempt will fail, and that it win
be solely a contest of men in which
sectionalism will not be an important
factor.
Senator Depew, a skillful and ex-
perienced observer, predicts as fol-
lows the ordering of battle array for
the national campaign of 1900. On the
Republican side, a repetition of the
formation of 1896; the gold standard
unequivocally affirmed, the impracti-
cability of international bimetalism
having been proved by careful inves-
tigation; the st. Louis platform, with
stiff expansion plank added and
supported by the results of a glorious
war. On the Democratic side: Bryan
free silver and platform "agin the
administration" What will the re-
suit be? Inquirers are referred to the
score by states as marked on the ma
tional blackboard in November, 1895.
Senator Hansborough, who has
earned reputation as careful OBJ
server of the political drift of the
country, gives this summary of the
past, present and future: ''The mis-
takes in the conduct of the war were
all minimized by glorious successes
everywhere. The democrats will go
mounting before the people all of
the complaints about the little things.
They never size up to the great
things. The war was SO short that it
was over before the faults and wicked
nesses were discovered. If the war
had been prolonged all of the mis-
doings of contractors would have
been discovered, and they would
have been punished. McKinley's ad-
ministration has brought success at
every point, and prosperity to every
part OF the land. Of course he will
be renominated and re -elected.n

Theresa. 1880 dollars. the people OF
Abyssinia, for small change, use a bar
OF hard, ~crystalized salt, about ten
inches long and two inches and a bali
broad and thick. slightly tapering to-

dollar at the capital. People are very
particular about the standard fineness
Of the currency. If it does not ring
like metal, or if it is at all Clipped,
nothing will induce them to take 1t.
Then. it is a token Of affection among
the natives, when friends meet, to give
each other a lick OF their respective
anoi;s, and in this way the material
value OF the bar is also decreased. For
still smaller change cartridges are
used, Of which three go to one salt.
