Uses of SpectacIes.
PHILADELPHIA Record.


'Spectacles." said ophthalmologist
ARE as old as wagons. / suppose. or as
clothes. Wasn't a pair found recently in a
mummy case that dated back to something
like 300 years before Christ? But the spec
taces of the ancients were merely mag
nifying glasses, and the modern sorts-the
prismatic, the spherical. the concave, the
convex and the cylindrical. which correct
double vision, refraction, myopia, hyper
metropia. astigmatism. etc.-are compare
lively modern inventions. They are made
of rock crystal. and they have done more
good than anything else in modern medi-
cine except. perhaps, anaesthetics. Medical
records show that there is now 30 per cent
less of blindness than there used TO be in
the world. and this Improvement is due en-
tirely TO the use OF spectacles. which have
kept weak eyes from succumbing. as braces
keep weak limbs from succumbing. There
is also much less of headache than there
was. great deal of that came. you know,
from the eyes. and that sort of headache
spectacles have banished utterly

Sunday morning when a man drove up hur-
riedly. leaped from his buggy and rushed
into the place. asking for two scent
cigars. He threw down a small dimey-
looking coin and hurried away with his
smokes. When the old gentleman adjusted
his glasses and looked at the disc in true
California style he saw that IL was a s.
center of the vintage of 1888. He was
somewhat disguised at the mans pettiness.
When he went home he related the incident
and his young son who had been interested
in the work of the numismatist looked up
list of valuable coins and found that the

make some people pay anything
near Ike an honest tax Is In their
Judgment an objectionable sin.
However, Mr.. Mccoy will get a
good many votes from the other
side and may win out, but we
think 1t will be a close vote be-
tween him and his opponent, Arlie
Locke.
For councilmen we hardly know
who has the best chance. In the
First Ward we think the Demo-
Gratis will win. We believe they
will carry every ward but the Third
where 1t looks as If Councilman
K,ug will win ont. If this should
be the result. we will have a Demo.
cratic council for the first time. OF
the councilmen who hold over, two
are Democrats and two ReputI-
cans. If the Democrats carry three
wards they will have a majority of
one vote. IF the wards elect only
two Democrats the council will be
evenly divided. For the past two
years the Democrats have bsen win.
ming for Mayor and all the other
officers except councilmen, who
have always had republican ma
jority. We believe at best the
council this coming year will be
either one democratic or tie.
These predictions may all be
changed In tomorrow's paper, but
this Is the way matters look to us
today. There seems this year to be
less party feeling than we have
ever had In any election for City
officers. The voters seem to be de.
termined to vote just as they
please. We know of strong Dem
ocrats who are scratching their
tickets this year and there are Re.
pabiicans doing the same, so It's
hard to tell how the result will be.
It may be Republican landslide or
1t may be the other way, or 1t may
be very close. We will tell you all
about 1t tomorrow.
