SQUIRTING THE EYELIDs.

This is a sign OF defective vision.
III a person partly closes the lids in
looking at objects just as everyone
closes the lids in looking at the sun,
they need glasses. 1t is a sign that
never fails. 1t is a sign that the eyes
are out Of focus. The rays Of light
cause a diffused blur. instead Of sharp
distinct vision. Squirting the lids
is Nature way of partly shutting off
the blur. Correctly fitted lenses will
throw every ray to perfect focus
and make vision clear and distinct.
Vision Will be better and clearer with
the eyes wide open. The strain will
be removed and relieved. Ii your eyes
trouble you in this way, let me show
you what correctly fitted lenses really
mean.

Unused Raiiroad Tickets.

Some men with unused railroad tick
cts on their hands sell them to scalp
ers while others go TO the railroad
company that issued them and obtain
their value in money. Most persons.
however, do neither and accept the loss
when the ticket is worth less than n
dollar Indeed many persons do not
realize that the railroad companies
stand ready 10 redeem unused tickets
even of small value, so that the com
panies must be richer by many thou
sands of dollars Il year through this
ignorance.
Every railroad ticket bears the name
of the general passenger agent and of
the general manager of the road 1t is
n simple matter to inclose the ticket
with letter directed to the general
r,ass,.ncrpr a cent asking him to refund
the money paid and explaining the rca-
son why tfe ticket is left unused in the
har.sss of the purchaser. 1t is courte-
Gus 10 incloSe n stamped envelope in
which the money may be returned
When all these things have been
done, the company generally acknowl-
edges the receipt of the ticket holders
tigate the matter The Investigation
consists in the proper identification of
the ticket hy the agent who sold it and
a little bookkeeping TO set the accounts
right. Then the purchaser receives "a
check for the amount due from the
railroad company along with a letter
requesting acknowledgment New
