HOW TO PUT ON EYEGLASSES.
An Art of Which Many People Are
Ignorant.

"Oh, yes" said the optician, as he fitted
a pair of glasses on the nose OF custom
er. There is an art in putting on nose
glasses. and at least half of the people
who wear glasses don't know how to put
them on. The result is that the moment
they begin to perspire a little when
they shake their heads or make any I'M
usual movement, off go the glasses smash
on the floor, or more often the sidewalk
OF course, we opticians don't kick, for
that very thing gives US a good part of our
business. There is a good profit in putting
in new lenses. Really, the only sensible
gasses to wear are spectacles. They fast
en- over the ears and they never fall OFF.
and they don't get out of adjustment.
They fit on the same place every time. and
the eye looks through the centre of the
Tense, as 1t should look. But most people
think that spectacles make them look old
er. or something like that. and they insist
on nose glasses.
Then they don't know how to put them
on. and if they don't get them just right.
the eyes don't look through the centre of
the lenses, and if there Is any disorder
of the vision other than near-sightedness,
the improperly adjusted glasses often do
more harm than good. to say nothing of
the expense from breakage. Now, mad
am, if you feel you must wear glasses in
stead of spectacies. take them like this
He took the glasses and held them per-
fectly level before him Stretch them
wide apart and approach the nose like
this" He advanced them toward the tip
of the nose now raise them up So
Still holding the glass so that the springs
stretched wide over the nose he advanced
them upward until the upper points Of the
clips Were directly under the eyebrows.
Now let go" said he The glasses We're
on firm shake your head, said he. The
customer shook her head. The glasses
wigged. but did not fall off
You see" said the optician, you can't
shake them off They sit perfectly and
Just fit the eye. You don't want any
thing better than that, do you? Now try
putting them on yourself"
The customer took them of and at
tempted to put them back. She got them
on askew.
NO, MOI no. said the optician. that's
all wrong" and he showed her over again
how IL should be done. It took six times
trying before the customer mastered the
knack and went away happy.
she'll he back in a month, said the
optfcfan wanting one or two now lenses

shown her exactly how to put them on

,,yiIl forget all about il. | can always tell

must learn how to adjust them or they'll
ruin their eyes and break their pockets at

than men at that I've got one customer

A TRIBUTE FROM LABoUcEERE.
Remarks of the Radical Editor on
EnElnnd's l. Ing.

The Egyptians sat i'm judgment over
their Kings after they had died. Had
such a court been impaneled, its verdict
in favor of Queen Victoria would have
been unanimous King Edward VII Is on
the throne What will be the verdict on
him when he, too. passes away, will de
pend upon his reign. Apart, however.
from the courtly adulatiOn that always
areets a new sovereign, we have. | think.
fair grounds for anticipating that he will
tread in the steps of his mother. An heir
to a throne occupies a most difficult POSI-
ton The late Queens dislike of the pa
geantry of a court, and the comparative
retirement in which she lived, threw upon
the Prince of Wales many o. the cere-
monial obligations incident to Sovereignty
In all these he acquitted himself admira-
bly,. 1t is to be presumed that he had his
own opinions like other Englishmen on
political issues, but what they were he
never allowed to transpire, and he was on
cordial terms with political leaders Of all
shades He showed his readiness to sac
rince his case in order TO support by his
presence and by his advocacy associations
to promote art and charity, and To better
the condition of the masses He has trlv-
eled much and been brought into close
contact with all sorts and conditions Of
yror He is a thorough man of the world.
With an exceptional measure Of that tact
wlich goes to the making of one.
Il was observed Of Charles III that he
never said a foolish thing and never did
a wise one. King Edward has done many
wise things, and no one can charge him
with ever having said a foolish one. He
has indeed, a curious happiness OF eN-
pre ssiOn on great and small occasions.
While he has made many warm friends,
he has no enemies. lie is neither book
worm nor u priE, and he possesses that
cfyilitas which the old Romans lauded so
strongly as the soul of social amenity.
He is sympathetic, because he always
seems to enter into the occupation OF the

see that the servile lingo newspapers
urge him to give evidence of his wisd ON
oy directing our policy in the way that
tney would have IL move, and one of them
actually recommends him to insist at once
upon becoming Emperor Of the Britons
and King of australia and of Canada.
Judging by his conduct as Prince of
Wales. 1t is not likely that he will throw
himself into the arms of any political
party. and having become King of Great
Britain and Ireland, he will, think, agree
with MIR. Gladstone that this is a title
'unequaled in the glory of its historical
associations. and will hardly be inclined
to substitute for it that of Emperor of
the JinEocs."
AS the first gentleman of England he
will probably prefer to remain what he
is. AS King he will accept no RESPONSE
bility that the constitution does not throw
upon him. lie will frankly accept the
policy that his responsible advisers sub
nit to him, suggesting, perhaps, modi-
hcations. seeking To tone down asperities

He CAN SELL.
Court Holds Executor Can Dis.
pose Of Property Under Will

The following opinion was handed down
by the appellate court today in the case
OF Frank G. Myers, executor. VS.. Willis
ton a. Cady.
The will OF Agnes Mcwilliams said: II
desire THAI nay home estate on Nara
gansc,t Boulevard, an Edgewood. town OF
Cranston. state OF Rhode Island. be sold
within a year after my decoase. provided
a suitable price can be obtained for the
same
II then provided that the money de-
rived thorefrom should be added 90 what
she had and that the whole should be
pa!d To dcsignatc lcgntees.
The question raised is whether tho ts-
tate can bc sold after tho expiration Of
the year. \; Is perfectly clear from tho
will that tho estate was 90 ne sold. The
will contained no residuary clause. except
by providing that each OF the legatcea
-vtrurtri IT urrtftirri tt reeei-e proportion
ai part or the surplus The expression OF
dcEire WAS equivalent ~ direction TO
eel. Tho limitation of time was depend
ent upon obtaluing n suitable price. It
evidently meant that while she desired
speedy sale she did not want the estate
sacrificed BY = sale before = suitable price
could be obtained. We. think. therefore,
that the executor has authority 60 sell,
anh g. entitled 90 a decree FOR specific
performance.
