Eureka! The most important In
yention which optical research has
brought to light.
LUMiNANT HEALTH LIGHT
LENSES,the new and improved lenses
for spectacles and eyeglasses, soften
the light and improve the vision.
Most glass which softens the light
dims the wearers vision.
But LuMINANT HEALTH LIGHT
GLASS, owing to its chemical constit-
uents and composition, which is diff
ferent from any other, produces lenses
which soften the light and at the
same time increase the wearer's acu-
ity of vision.
This is due to the fact that they
absorb or hold back large percent
age of the actinic or ultraviolet rays
of light, allowing the eyes TO exert
their fun power of vision. These
ultraviolet rays are very Irritating to
the eyes. any excess of them produc-
ing various pathological conditions,

WOULD HAVE A LOOP
Efforts Being Made to Induce Trac-
tion Company to Build One.

An organized effort is being made
to secure an additional street car SER
vice and to make a sort of loop of the
square for the turning of the street
cars. The possibilities of the plans
suggested are interesting. The build
ing of two blocks OF new track is con-
sidered in the plans. The proposed
extension is from High avenue south
on A street to First avenue, where the
track will turn east for one block to
connect with the line at Market
and First. This will enable the Bea-
con Interurban car to make the turn
south and go around the square and
straight west on High avenue, instead
of stopping and starting at the de-
pot as it now does. With the install
lation of new curves at the Market
street corner and from First street
east into High avenue, all cars could
make a loop OF the square. Papers
are being circulated and the right-Of-
way for the two blocks of track being
secured from the, adjoining property
holders

Church Doors Should BE Opened
Every Lay in the Week.
Mr.. Editor:
From sunrise to sunset the House
of God should be always open, that
Gods children may commune with
Him in the building which has been
set apart as the common gathering
place of those who are willing to ac-
knowledge their dependence upon a
heavenly Father. AS in an earthly
family besides the inspiration which
comes from the meeting together of
all around the dining room table for
the food that sustains the body or
around the library table for the
nourishment of the mind, there are
the blessed moments when parent
and child alone with each other may
look into each others souls, may
pour into each others ears the lit
tie condolences of their sacred rela-
tionship, may make the many daily
requests for parental or filial favors
so in addition to the uplift and en-
thusiasm that come from the public
worship of God, there should be the
opportunity for the gaining of quiet
strength by communing alone with
God. 1t is most true that anywhere
and everywhere the eager soul may
seek after God and find Him; but it
Is also true that there are places
which more than others remind us
of the abiding presence of Him into
whose spiritual image it is our
birth-right to grow. The prayers of
Moses were heard amid the distract
ing scenes of his life in Egypt, but
in the wild solitudes of lofty Horeb
he could more readily receive the
inspiration from on high. So to the
church set apart as a meeting place
of Gods Soul with the soul of man
it is natural and right for a man to
turn that he may seek and receive
the divine blessing. With reason
able restrictions the door of the
church should no more be closed
against the children of God than the
door of the home against the chill
dren of the family.

ANOTHER SENSATION
IN WAYNE COUNTY.
Attorney Makes Startling DecIara
ton in Addressing School Di-
reCtOrS

Closely following the Hunkele
case, which set Wayne county agog,
comes another sensation which is
causing wide comment in that usu-
ally peacefully district, according to
the Reporter-J ournal and Bradford
Republican. .e1D
In the course of an address at the
annual convention of Wayne County
School Directors, Attorney r. p.
Kimble made sensational charges.
He said:
AT one time it was charged that in
at least one school district in Wayne
county, teachers were obliged to
agree to pay one, or some time two
months salary direct to a syndicate
or directors in order to secure the
appointment. | scarcely know which
portion of such board of directors
deserves the greater condemnation
the portion that accepts bribes or
that porion that countenance such il
legal conduct by refraining from
making an exposure of it. Newspa-
pers have frequently given accounts
OF this illegal practice in some of
the mining districts of Pennsylvania
but who would have suspected such
venality in more enlightened and
rural communities. To exact such
spoil from applicants for schools, is
nothing short of robbery; and any
man who stoops to the practice,
should be dealt with most summar-
lily to the very limit of the law, and
his illegal conduct should receive
the widest publicity and condign
punishment"
/, Now the people of Wayne county
are wondering who Attorney Kimble
could have meant, and which school
district was referred to.
The Honesdale CITIZEN, with
characteristic enterprise, comes out
and invites information which will
lead to the exposure and punishment
of the commercial" school direc.
tors.

Coles for December.

Time in it's ceaseless onward
march stops for no one. The year
1910 will soon be a thing of the
past. The happiness and joys of to-
day are enhanced and intensified by
the bright prospects and progress
opening up for national prosperity
and progress during the year that is
before us. The measure of the year
so soon to reach its close has been
filled up with it's joys mingled with
its bitterest gall. Yes, we have all
made or lost. No man Is so careful
in his calculations as to come out
at the end of the year with "clean
balance sheet" He has either made
or lost. When we look over the
busy marts of the world we are
almost bewildered at the diversity of
pursuits, but, however complicated
or diversified, they all sum up in
profit or loss. Reverses and tribula-
tions have been the portion of thous-
ands, but through it all there has
lived the well-grounded hope of a
brighter future. The coming year
has been looked forward to with
hopeful anticipations, and this has
cheered and encouraged many who
would otherwise have been despond-
ent
Christmas, with it's Frightening
joys, will soon. be reached on the

an event which brought life and hope
to all mankind. 1t is well to lay
aside, as far as possible, the cares
and troubles of life, and look stead
fastly to the future with all-abiding
| faith that it will bring with it the
better things that have been absent
in the past. Let all rejoice, and do
not let the cause of rejoicing cease
at your own threshold, that those
less fortunate than you may have a
share in the Christmas Joys.
December brings our good earth
ship back to her last port for 1910.
We find the sun slipping into the
