sion to the United States. They simply
avoided the entry towns or went across
some quiet river at night and got driven
out of reach of a customs official Now,
however, things are different. Robert
Watchorn, the special immigrant in
spector at Montreal, has men working
under his direction at Quebec, Sault Ste.
Marie, Montreal, Windsor, Prescott and
all along the border. The results speak
for themselves After taking some four
months to organize and get things into
working order, they had six months in
which to work until the end of the fiscal
year. In that time they had stopped
more than two thousand, and in the four
months which have elapsed since that
time they have covered a great deal of
ground, and another years work of the
kind will open the eyes Of the Canadian
government to the peril with which this
country is threatened in letting these
aliens remain here. The inspectors pre-
vent the entrance Of diseased and pau
periZed immigrants into the United
States. Nine-tenths OF their captures
are made in the night. The smugglers
who have undertaken to ship the would
be American citizens across the border
generally bring their victims to some out
of the way spot, where there is no like
lihood Of any officer being present
Then at night a boat is secured, and
the immigrants are rowed across a river
or driven over the border for some dis
tance to reach railway. Since the be-
ginning of the present fiscal year ten
professional smugglers have been prose-
cuted. Some have been convicted and

on the American list, while the sufferers
from trachoma, favus and other nau-
seating and repulsive diseases are put
down on the Canadian manifests. For
this reason 1t Is that few of those who
come over as through immigrants are re-
jected on examination at the port of
entry, while many are rejected at Mon
treal or the border towns
Few of the intending American settlers
remain here any length of time. The
distance of this city from the border
prevents them from so doing. They gen.
orally carry through tickets for Ottawa,
Toronto, Welland, Sault Ste Marie or
Montreal
From those points, which are referred
to in the parlance Of the smugglers and
agents as border towns" they are rail-
roaded one way or another into the
United States. There is an arrangement
by which the steamship companies pay
the head tax of 81 on any immigrant
who, after having remained in Canada
less than a year, decides to go into the
United States. The bona fide immigrants
who come over generally apply at the
Office Of the immigration inspector at
Montreal or at some other point near
the residence he has occupied in Canada.
There a certificate may be obtained to
allow the intending American settler to
go through. From this source there has
been collected for many months more
than $500 every four weeks. That ap-
plies only to those who apply to the in
spectors for certificates.

Neglect Of the Eyes.

Every observant person has recognized
the recent striking increase in the num-
Der of people wearing glasses, and while
this fact can be considered a sign of
our advancing civilization, the question
may be. asked, what it will lead to
and is 1t a necessity The answer must
be that while our environment, our pro-
fessions and trades. compel a constantly
increasing demand upon one of the most
delicate and complex organs of our sys-
TEN, it is necessary, in order to preserve
the function of the eyes in their highest
possible state, that concerted action be
taken to that end. Neglect of the eyes
and injudicious use of glasses are great
contributing factors in the general de-
terioration that is taking place in these
organs.
Every ocuist has seen case after case
of these various conditions promptly re-
lieNed by the correction of the ocular
defect. He has seen cases where the
child pronounced by the parents and
teachers dull and backward becomes the
brightest in his class after wearing glass
es that give him normal vision without
the effort that has caused a condition
of brain flag. He has seen many a ner-
vous, weakened, ill-nourished child be-
come as robust and healthy as his play
mates after the removal of some eye
strain
the most delicate system of our en-
tire body. For the perfect perform
ance of Its function every part must
work in perfect harmony. To secure
this harmony both the refraction and
the muscular balance of the eyes must
be perfect. 1t is a fact that an abso-
lutely emmetropic. or normal eye is but
rarely found.
I We acknowledge that the prevalent err
ror of all oculists is the too early and
frequent prescribing of glasses. In
many instances the use of glasses can be
avoided by the correction of some de-
hciency in the balance of the eXtrinsc
muscles of the eyes which may be the
cause of the asthenopic or reflex symp-
toms. In all cases of decided retroactive
errors. however the use of correcting
lenses is a necessity. When glasses are
required they should be given proper care
by the wearer. We have often seen
patients wearing glasses so scratched
and dirty that "a great effort must neces-
sarily be made to see through them. In
using eyeglasses they should never be
folded, as they soon become misshapen
and scratched. For the same reason
glasses should not be thrown carelessly
upon tables, stands, etc, and when out
of shape, nicked. and scratched, they
should be repaired or new ones pur-
chased. After the correct lens has been
selected, care should be taken that the
frames are carefully adjusted by a COM
petent optician. as oftentimes improper
ly fitted frames destroy all the benefit
that would have resulted from the
glasses.-GA. B. Norton in the November
Atlantic.

When Columbus set sail in search of
new continent the wise men of his time
called him an adventurous fool. Yet he
discOgered Ame1icd. You may say that
was an accident. Yes, but it was the kind
of accident that happens only to men who
are looking for it. During long profess
ional practice DIR. David Kennedy, of
Kingston, N. Y, was continually watching
out for better medicine than any thus far
known for certain complaints He could
not imagine when or how he should find it;
perhaps (more likely indeed) he should
never find it at all. So he thought. But
the right idea came to him finally and the
result was the preparation called Calcura.
Solvent. The name means a solvent, or
DISCOVER, of stone, or chalk deposits, in the
kidneys or bladder; a remedy for the cure
of gravel, and of diseases caused by various
toxic or poisonous substances or acids in the
blood or glands. Experiment showed that
Calcura Solvent would cure red or white
gravel without pain or danger to the patient,
and expel from the system the uric acid
which causes govt and rheumatism. If it
did no mere Dr. Kennedy's discoverywould
stand as one of the most useful ones in the
history of medicine, but it is equally effect
i've in complaints of the digestive organs.
