eyes, sir I'll stand by my guns on
that assertion: and | think I can
prove my point. Nine out of every ten
persons talk entirely too loud over the
telephone. They actually shout and
make so much noise that they drown
out all semblance of clearness. Then
they can't hear, and the first thing you
know there is complaint about poor
connection and faulty service. The
correct way to talk over the telephone,
is to talk as you do in ordinary con-
versation, or even a trile lower. Peo-
pie can't seem to realize that the
telephone will carry a whisper even.
No, they must talk Tough enough to
be heard from Tenth and Chestnut

the connected points Just try it your

voice, and see if you do not get in

Philadelphia Oculists Claim
Amazing Virtue for Lenses
of Amethyst Glass

to Put New Panes in Old Houses
Free Of Cost to Owners.

Philadelphia.-A discovery of great
value to those whose sight has been
impaired by working under artificial
light has been made in this city. 1t
was learned that Amethysttinted
lenses made from window pane glass
taken from houses in Walnut street
would cure blindness caused by work
Ing on bright metals and under artifi-
Ci6l light
This glass is simply ordinary win
dow panes that have been in use for
more than seventy-five years. In that
time it has been turned an amethyst
tint by tho direct rays OF the sun
Philadelphia eve specialists are OPP
timistic in their contentious for the
glass, which is termed by tie oculists
ana opticians the Philadelphia glass"
Some of the most widely known ply
sicians in the city are using it in their
daily practice and say that it has
proved wonderfully effective. and that
the eye disorders that ii will relieve
and cure are many. Although the first
announcement of the good results
from the use of this glass was only
made about six months ago, it has re-
ceived widespread attention and Phila-
delphia physicians VINO were among
the first to give it a trying out have
received letters from other doctors in
all parts OF the globe asking for SAM
pies of the glass with which to ex.
pertinent.
Houses IN Walnut street that were
erected in the early part of the last
century are being examined closely by
enterprisirg opticians. Many a staid
Philadelphia family who have lived in
the same house for several genera
tions have been surprised recently by
offers to put new glass in their Win
dows free of cost Upon close exami-
nation it was learned the window
panes that the seemingly charitable
persons wanted to replace had the
precious amethyst tint.
Among the Philadelphia oculists
that have been working with the
amethyst tinted lenses is DR.. L. Web.
ster Fox. professor of opthamology in
the Medi o-Chirurgical College, and
an oculist Of vide repute
Dr. Fox has been able to cure many
cases OF temporary loss of sight and
badly strained eyes when the amethyst
tint was corporated with correcting
lenses. He has been particularly sue
Cessful in the case of printers type

prescribed with great relief to those
whose eyes are exposed in an X-ray
laboratory.

Springfield. Ohio. Mrs. James
Cr amer of this city has solved the
problem OF increasing the countrys
egg supply. She has discovered that
one Of the best things to induce hens
to lay eggs is a liberal supply of in
strumental music. It is a little hard
on the neighbors who do not have
flocks OF chickens, but they are willing
to put up with it for the time being
in the interest of the science of egg
ology. Mrs. Creamers arms are ach-
ing and the ends Of her fingers are
callous from playing upon the piano
hour after hour. She finds consolation,
however. in the fact that between each
tune she can hear one or more hens
cackling and announcing that her pay
for the music is a fresh egg. News Of
the discovery has spread far and wide,
and from sunrise to sunset pianos are
playing and hens are cackling. The
cold storage egg has come to be re-
gaided as a. thing of the past in that
section of Springfield.
Mrs Creaner has a nice flock of
mems. lhe trouble was thcy were not
good egg producers until she resorted
to the piano recital as an inducemert.
She had tried putting red pepper and
mustard in their food, ho0ing to 3e-
lude hem into the belief summer had
arrived and it was the duty of each
hen to lay at least one egg each day.

however. that the two or three hens
which we're laying always flew up on
the window-sill when she played the
Piano and that shortly after she stop
ped they went Of, and laid That caused

Faith. the Lint of the Soul.

Faith is truly a light in the soul,
but it is a light which only shines
upon duties, and not upon results or
events 1t tells us what is now to be
done. but it does not tell us what is to
follow, and accordingly it guides us
but single step at time, and when
we take that step under the guidance
of faith, we advance directly into a
land of surrounding shadows and
d ir&ness. Like the patriarch Abraham,
we so, not knowing whittier we go,
but only that God ie with us. In mans
darkness, we nevertheless walk and
live in Gods light. A way of living
blessed and glorious however mysteri-
GUS it may be to human vision.

Nor would there be any likelihood of
sparks from the stove falling on the
skin of the careless bather, since the
fuel is gas. The desirability OF taking
q bath in the kitchen is of course
merely a matter of personal taste.
More desirable and also intended
for the bedrooms Of houses built for
workingmen is the other bathtub.
That shuts up in such fashion as to
require very little space. 1t is attach
ed TO a spring which raises it as soon
as it is emptied of a certain weight

inside of it.
When not in use it is caught at the
top, and when the door of the closet
in which it stands is closed the tub
remains in an upright position. The
water and waste pipe are attached 10

stands in the closet. Once the door
is closed the tub is as much ont Of

Chicago.-"The United States sup
ports too many physicians. While Eu-
rope maintains the proportion of one
physician to every l,500 inhabitants,
the United States has a physician for

to our too numerous low grade medical
