"For years I had suffered with Sc

was told by several specialists that
my eyes were the cause Of it, so that
I finally consented to the wearing of
glasses which would help me fo1
only a short period, when the head
aches would return again. I was
told that nothing more could be
done for me unless I submitted to
having drops put in my eyes to sus-
pesd the accommodation. I was
fearful of the effect, as I knew of
others whose eyes had been perma-
nently weakened from the effects Of
a mydriatic. I consulted Mr.. and
Mrs. Lingerfeld and Miss Swe,izer,
as I noticed in their advertisement
that they corrected all latent trou-
bles without the use of mydriatic.

suits, as it is now nearly one year
since they fitted me with glasses
and my head has not ached since I
have worn them. I am grateful, too,
to have found some one who was able
to correct my trouble without the

San Francisco, Cal, May 4.-The
United States Mint, which is being used
as The general clearinghouse for the banks,
has paid out between S70O0,000 and
5000 600 to depositors since Tuesday.
The number of persons who were anxious
to secure their money yesterday was
much smaller than expected. The line
did not extend half a block. This may
have been due TO the fact that none OF
the savings banks is paying depositon.
The savings banks viii not open before
May 18th, and there will be no oppor-
tunity TO withdraw accounts before that
time

House site, on Montgomery street be-
tween Post and Sutter, has been offered

The army people at the Preside have
accomplished wonders in the work of
strengthening out tho badly mixed-up
condition OF affairs in this city. In an
interview on the subject, today, Gen.
Funston said:
"lhis is the largest rescue work over

they speak Of fire as the greatest cstas-
irophe of the age, but those who have

have been impossible. Livery quarter

tho first few days tho tent cities that
sprung up in the Presidio were without

"Rapid progress is being made in tho
medical supply depot at the Presidio,
which will soon be able 70 furnish the
hospitals Of the city with ell the drugs
necessary for the treatment Of the sick.
The work Of systematizing the depot was
begun last Saturday, when Col Louis
Brechemin. IT, S. A., was instructed to
take charge of all medical supplies sent
TO the relief committee, rs well as those
belonging TO the government, and TO
issue them to the different hospitals and
dispensaries recognized by the Red Cross
Society.

play is one of Elmer Walters most

added. Mr.. Walters and his plays are
old friends in Walla Walla and theater

satisfying the public demand for some
thing that does away with the ususal

songs, sparkling dialogues and funny

from the lively demand for seats IL

by the most corrupt political organi-
cation the world has even known. and
then complains that congress is cor
rupt.
Yet Hearst is force that must be
reckoned with in New York. He is
held up by the eulogists as the great.
est creator of intelligent discomfort
of the century. 1t is true, except the
creation part. Hearst does not create
it. 1t exists already. He merely gives
it a voice, many voices. through his
newspapers.
The state of New York has been
ring ridden for years, The public
men, from its senators to its alder
men. are discredited by their too
close connection with public-service
corporations. The city Of New York
is tired of it's money kings, who steal
franchises and enrich themselves in
stantly by criminal issues of stock.
It is tired of corporation like the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit company,
whose answer to a judicial decision
is the bludgeon for passengers. The
newspapers, or most of them, resent
these things, but Hearst makes the
loudest outcry, and the people look to
him as a sort of Dowie, who will call
down fire from heaven to consume
the tyrants. That he will not and
cannot do it is evidenced by his SUI
pine stopping to Murphy and Murphy's
organization. AS the candidate of the
somewhat fanciful independence
league, Hearst had chance to appeal
to the discomfort ne had awakened.
But as the candidate of Murphy he
sinks below the level of Odell or any
other machine politician of the state.
But because Hearst has apparently de-
stroyed himself, let not the managers
on the other side imagine the discon-
tent has been destroyed. That re-
mains. 1t is not dependent on Hearst.
It is dependent on the continuance of
intolerable conditions. The nominal
ton of Mr.. Hughes is guarantee
that the republican party recognizes
its existence and will try to cure it by
sane methods. This is one advantage
Mr.. Hughes has over Hearst. That
he may hold that advantage to the
end, it is necessary THAT the old boss
es keep their hands off and that Mr..
Hughes run the campaign as ne ran
the insurance investigation, without
trammel and without fear.

Two Edged Swords Capable of Mis-

Two Edged Swords Capable of Mis-
chief as Well as Benefit.
There is perhaps no class Of remedial
abuse consists both in the excessive
use and the misapplication Of this class
Of agents, which within a restricted
field possess an indisputable and i'm
portant therapeutic value. The misuse
of tOnics is doubtless the OutgrOwth
of a misconception of the real nature Of
this class of remedial agents and its
limitations. Many physicians also seem
to lose sight of the fact that tOnics are.
as has been said Of drugs in general,
two edged swords which are as capable
of mischief as Of benefit. Indeed, when
the true nature Of tonics-as is true, in
fact, of most medicinal agents-is thor
oughly understood, it Is apparent that
even in cases in which they accomplish
the maximum of benefit there is also
a certain amount Of injury inflicted
upon the organism, SO that the effect
obtained is really and simply the differ
ence between the mischief done and the
good accomplished. If the difference
Is on one side, the total result Is benefit;
II on the other side, the result Is harm.
This principle holds good with regard
to most remedies, whether the means
employed is a drug or a nonmedicinal
agent.
The popular idea Of a tonic Is well
expressed In the following definition,
which we find in the National Medical
Dictionary: IAN agent which augments
gradually and permanently the strength
and VITAL activity Of the body or its
parts" A stimulant is defined by the
same authority as being IAN agent
which increases the functional activity
of any organ or series Of organs" The
distinction made seems to be that q
stimulant produces temporary excite
ment, whereas tonic produces per.
manent increase of strength and vital
activity.-Good Health.

A NOBLE STOCK.
Pride, Dignity and Beauty Of the
Modern Spaniards.

Modern Spaniards.
You may see today in any church
portal in Spain the somber dignity Of
expression immortalized in the por.
traits Of Velasquez, the sinister cast of
countenance of Philip H., the nose and
proud bearing of Roman centurion.
In the Basque provinces the dignity
and pride of the peasantry are reflect
ed in the graceful carriage and SYM
metry of movement for which the men
Of that coast and the girls carrying
pitchers on their heads are justly cele-
brated. There is no trace Of awkward
ness in a Spanish peasant, on whose
features is stamped the pride of Rome
who will talk to you with the ease and
volubility of Spanish courtier. 1t Is
O noble stock.
Though today the glory of Spain has
departed and the modern Spaniard ia
vors a western bowler" and the wom-
en- wear Partisan hats, the national
type of Spain persists with all its dig
nifty and characteristics. Living types
of Murillo's street urchins may be seen
in any Spanish village-a group hud-
died together in some shady retreat,
brown, chubby, curly headed, merry
little rascals, lunching off water
melon picked up in the market. happy
as princes in their hempen rags and
with their meager mOrsel, or you
may see the sunny side of Spain as
Goya painted it-a dance in the open
square, a bridal feast, bullfghters'
carousal, a brawl, an elopement. The
apparel is less gaudy today, but the
sun and the types and the spirit are
the same.
That brawny picador with his wide
brimmed somb,ero, his swarthy coun-
tenance. aquiline nose and raven locks
looks for all the world like Roman
gladiator. The lad at his side, with
his finely chiseled features, might have
waited on Poppaea. And that young
girl in her white lace mantilla and the
red roses in her warm black hair-such

1.-THE FREEDOM OF SUZANNE

Jane Corcoran, who has been seen
the past two seasons as the star of
Pretty Peggy" will this year appear
in a play of totally different char
acter. Her manager, Arthur c. Ais
ton. mas secured from Charles Froh-
man, the unrestricted rights for the
United States and Canada, for "The
Freedom of Suzanne" a comedy or
great merit, which scored pronounce
ed hit for ten weeks at the Empire
Theater, New York City. Mr.. Froh-
man had many applications for the
play, but knowing that it was particu-
larly adapted to Miss Corcoran, made
a deal with Manager Aston for its
use.
The play deals with the story Of an
English wife who wants freedom and,
finally, obtaining it, declares she
would rather return to the protection
of a husband Suzanne has been mar
ried sometime when she manifests an
inclination to depart from the house
at uncertain intervals and roam whith-
er her will takes her. One day,
Charles Trevor, the husband, waits
disconsolately for the return Of his
spouse, and in the meantime, discuss
es ner virtues and lack of virtues with
certain members of his family.
Suzanne eventually appears, and in
genuously explains he rabsence by re-
lating stories Of a series of nocturnal
adventures in which she has taken
part. These include frustrated suppers
at a hotel, cab drives with chance
acquaintance, and finally, a farcical
escape from a compromising situation
in a strangers fiat. The family,
with the exception Of the husband
leave the woman in disgust, and ne
attempts to kill her passion for roam
ing by the application of an excess of
kindness. The remedy fails, and Su-
zanne finally forces Trever to obtain
divorce.
After nine months of separation, the
coquette has transformed. She has
been sought by many suitors, has had
freedom in Overdoses, and longs to
return to a wifely state once more.
But she is not satisfied to wed any
of the numerous suitOrs, and the au-
thor eventually remarries ner to her
original husband.
Miss Corcoran will be supported by
James M. Brophy, and company Of
sterling merit. The engagement which
takes place at the Keylor Grand
promises to be most successful one.
