EYEGLASSES.
How to Put Them on and Take Them
on Properly.


There Is nothing which more com
plctely changes the effect of pair Of
eyeglasses than the habit of crowdlng
them on the nose With one hand. The
best efforts ut fitting ind adjusting are
all brought to naught by person who
has acquired that habit
The proper way TO take Off glasses
is to take hold Of the bridge and lift
off gently without draggin., or pulling
out of shape. To take Off spectacles
take hold Of the right temple with the
right hand and lift 1t off tho eur. Then
turn the head to the right aud the left
temple Will full or easily.
The average wearcr of glasses when
he is cleaning them takes hold Of the
bridge. The consequence Is that he
gradually works the bridge out Of
shape, and every rub lie gives the lens
gives II twist to the bridge, and in
course OF time the bridge or the lens
breaks when he least expects 1t. There
are probably more glasses broken In
this way than any other
The correct way to clean them Is to
take hold of one Of the eye pieces
where the glass Is screwed on the outer
edge and clean the lens, und then re-
verse the glasses, take 1t by the other
end piece and repeat the process ON
TINT lens.

JAvA's ISLAND OF FIRE.
1t Is Really Lake Of Boiling, Hub
bling Mud and Slime.

1t Is Really q Lake of Boiling, Buba
bling Mud and Slime.
The greatest natural wonder In Java,
II not In the entire world, is the justly
celebrated "Gheko Kamdku Gumko,"
or Home Of the Hot Devils" known
to the world as the lslnnd of Fire.
This geological singularity Is really a
lake of boiling mud situated ut about
the center Of the plains Of Grobogana
and Is called an island because the
great emerald sea of vegetation which
surrounds 1t gives 1t that appearance.
The "island" Is about two miles In cir
cumfcrence, and Is situated ut q dis
tance Of almost exactly fifty niles
from Solo. Near the center Of this
geological freak immense columns Of
soft, hot mud may be seen continually
rising and falling like great timbers
thrust through the boiling substratum
by giant hands and the again quickly
withdrawn. Besides the phenomenon
Of the boiling mud columns there are
scores Of gigantic bubbles of hot slime
that fill UP like huge balloons and keep
up series Of constant explosions. the
intensity OF the detonations varying
with the size of the bubble. In time
past, SO the Javanesc authorities say,
there was u tall sprelikc column OF
baked mud on the west edge of the
lake which constantly belchcd pure
stream of cold water, but this has long
been oblitcrated, and everything is
now n seethlng mass Of bubbling mud

ANATOMY OF AN OYSTER.
The Bivalve's Organ. and where
They Are Located.


They Are Located.
Every oyster has mouth. IL heart, a
liver, stomach and other necessary
internal organs. Including ii set of cum
ningly devised intestincs The mouth
Is at the small end of the oysters body,
near the hinge of the she'll 1t Is oval
In shape, und though not readily dis
covered by an unpracticed eye, 1t may
be easily located by gently pushing q
blunt bodkin or similar instrument
along the folds of the surface of the
body Mt the place mentioned. Connect
cd with the mouth Is the canal whlch
the oyster uses In conveying food to
the stomach. from whence 1t passes in
to the curious little set Of nettcd and
twisted intcstines referred to In the
opening.
To discover the heart OF an oyster
the fold of flesh which oystcrmen call
the "nlnntlc" must he removed This
is fatal to the oyster, of course. but in
the interest of science and for the benz

done. When the mantle has been re-

Or l.oracd moon, is laid to the view.
The oysters heart Is made up of two
parts, just like that of human being.
one Of which receives the blood from

through the arteries. The liver Is
found in the immediate vicinity of the
heart and stomach and Is queer

Reasonable Conclusion.

The public seem to feel quite
an interest in the question of
the killing of Sanford White by
Harry K. Thaw, in New York.
Murder at no time can be fully
justified, but if there ever was
aclse of justifyable homicide,
this certainly is one. If White
was gully of half the crimes he
is charged with, his killing was
an act that the public can we'll
fogive, and no one so we'll able
to determine so serious a mat
ter as Harry K. Thaw, a man
whose home was wrecked by
this monster in human shape,
not that Thaw stands before
the bar without blame, but the
world is the better fer the abb
sence of Sanford White, whose
character is a blot upon the
fair name of American citizan-
ship-a menace to innocence,
ard deserved to die.

Adjournment OF Congress

The public will be Impressed
lv President Roosevelt's de-
loerate statement that 'sIn the
session that has just closed
c'ngress has done more sub
S antial work for good than
9 ~ congress at any session
s.nce | became familiar with
Iublic affairs" This verdict
i not more positive than that
OF Speaker Cannon, spoken in
d"pendently at almost the same
time, who said: "1n my judg-
Ment the work done and the
legislation enacted in the ses-
sion closed exceeds in import
ance for the best interests of
the people the work of any ses-
sion during my thirty years OF
public life" The session
closed Saturday night at about
11:30 o'clock, and was devoid
of any sensational features,
however the work done has
certainly brought out the fact
that public opinion is more of
a factor in congress than here
tofore; perhaps not noticeable
but the wide publicity given
each and every great public
question was the cause of con-
sid er a BILE pressure being
brought to bear on each con-
gresham, by his constituents.
There is no doubt more work
could have been done had some
of the senators INDUCED in less
personal debates and confined
themselves to the questions un-
der discussion. AS a rule, how
ever, there was unneces-
sary delay and good work was
done throughout the entire
session.
Some people are Of the opin-
ion that a bill can be presented
to the congress and passed with
in a short period, but any sane
person who takes the time and
pains to read, can readily un-
derstand the unavoidable de-
lays necessary to thoroughly
discuss and revise bills under
dis cussion. Our senate is criti-
cised often for it's slowness, but
they act as a check to "hurry
up legislation" sometimes pro-
posed in our house of repre-
sentatives.

A Wonderful Proposition!

In the political tangle in
which our republican friends in
Iowa find themselves on account
of a difference of opinion as to
what shall be the character of
the party in the present condi-
tion of the country, the "stand
patters" seem to have surren-
dered to Ed. Hunter, of Des
Moines, the task of securing a
majority of delegates to the
Republican State Convention
in opposition to the express will
OF the party, as expressed in
co 1nfy conventions, and now
propose u new mode to secure
a candidate b ittirg to
the National Committee the
task of selecting three men who
shall determine vino Shall vote
in the Iowa State Republican
Convention in August next.
Such a proposition is an ac-
acknowledgement Of theirpresent
defeat before the people, and
now hoping, by this new move,
to so change the action of the
party as to put the defeated
party in control of the State
Convention to determine who
the party in Iowa shall nomi.
nate for Governor! Such action,
if accepted, would be a virtual
surrender of the rights of the
people into the hands of nom
residents with full power to de-
fine and fix the action of the
Republican party in Iowa in the
selection of candidates to be vo-
ter for by the people.
We have been taught to be-
lieve that ''the rights of the
State and'especially the right Of
each State to manage and con-
troll its own concerns in its own
way, subject only to the Con-
stitution, is essential to that bal
ance of power upon which the
stability and perpetuity Of the
government depends" why sur

The president was a busy
man last night, having signed
the railroad rate bill, the i'm
migration bill and the bill for
the construction of a lock canal
across the Isthmus of Panama.
All of these bills have been un-

and have been given careful
attention throughout. With
these bills signed, there will be
a better chance for congress to
consider some of the other inn
portant measures pending, and
get ready for adjournment be-

In the Russian crisis we can
plainly see the hand of destiny
pointed at the eXcesses com
nlitted by the royal family.
There has been no limit to their
dissipation, and the fact that
the money was wrung from the
working people, has caused
them to demand constitutional
rights. While it is a deplor-
able condition, that bloodshed
and rioting has existed during
the past two months, it may be
for the best in the end. The
Russian autocrats might as
we'll get in line for the time
has come for a government for
