 Daily and hourly we see people suf- fering with headaches, eye aches, ner- vOusness and numerous other ills, all because they do not realize the import ance of the eye and it's relation to health.

The Republican Split.

Boston Post.
In the Congressional elec
ton which comes on id four
months from this tine the re
publican party will face an is
sue on which it is divided un-
compromisinaly in the Con-
eress which hasius, ended it's
first session. This is the issue
OF the tariff. The trouble be-
gan in the preceding Con
gress, when the suggestion
was made that protection
should be withdrawn from
the great steel trust. 1t
which has just adjourned,
and there it..developed a wi.
der scope. AS it standsat the
present moment and as it
will stand in the campaign
soon to open for the election
of members of he new Con
gress, it is in effect the Dues
ton Of tariff for monopoly
or a tariff for the people.
The revision OF the Dingley
tariff in it's entirity is q mat
ter which the new Congress
will ha We to consider. 1t has
passed the stage in which a
single industry only is con-
cerneu. What Congressman
Ba bcock proposed fin relation
to the steel trust is now pro.
posed in relation to all other
trusts, and the. necessity is
seen to be the same. Are the
American people to he taxed
to maintain monopoles? that
is the question that will be
asked of every candidate for
Congress- in every district in
the land.
