MANY SORE EYES.
Twelve Per Cent of Children Examined
Are Afflicted

New York, July s1.-Contagious dis
eases have reached the proportions of a
full-fledged epidemic among the school
children Of Manhattan according to a
report by Health Commissioner Lederle
to the board of education
"A few weeks ago." said le tin order
to learn the extent of eye diseases in
the schools of Manhattan, appointed IL
specialists to go as far as they could in
the fortnight Of the school year then re-
naming They examined 55.4T0 child
rem in SO schools and learned that no
less than $50, or II per cent, exhibited
contagious eye diseases
.tOf these 2.31S were of the severest
type of trachona, necessitating almost
immediate operation. In the opinion of
the examiners all of these children
should be excluded from the schools to
prevent further infection"
The commissioner asked that a room
be set apart In each building suitable
for medical examinations. To this the
board agreed Several of its members
expressed an opinion, however, that the
reports of the special examiners had
been grossly exaggerated.

 cause the world has passed far beyond that point where a mer- chant could sit in his door and wait for his customers to come to hlm. He must go after custom CTS, and seek business, and the cheapest and most effective way of doing this is by advertising in the newspapers. The good done the newspaper ny liberal patron age and it's consequent growth and influence is reciprocated by that growth and influence in hene- fitting the community in which it is published, which results in a greater benefit to the advertiser than any other class, The mer- chant who does not advertise may expect his business to be dull and the towns wherein merchants do not advertise can not expect to keep pace with the march of progress.

ABOUT ADVERTISING

When the merchants of New ark advertise their business they also advertise the town, and much of the secret of the growth and prosperity of town is due to the public spirit and keen busi- ness sense of its merchants who are liberal advertisers. Cnmmer- cial rivalry Is so tense in these days that every effort must be made iD order that a town may grow and prosper. It has long sGa been universally conceded
 tks the merchant who has goods
 to sell must let the peo,s know
 it through the cutttlulsr sse-s s--flLllsae. newspapers, which, all admit, are
 the best mediums for reaching the people. Not tnly does adver- tising bring rich returns to the dueSitIscis oul dIeo dsoioto lnc community, because towns are judged abroad by the amount of advertising that IS seen in their =naptrs. The influence ah,l growth of any paper is the result
 of the liberal support given it by the merchants, and the success of the merchants of any town is due in great measure to judicious advertising. The merchants of il great many towns do not use printers ink as .liberally as they should. As result they have neither the busmess.nor the news
