To Eye glass Wearers

Did you ever have your eyes thor
oughly and scientifically examined by
special instruments built for that pur-
pose, instruments that reveal the con-
dition of the inner parts Of the eyes
and gives the retroactive (strength)
condition of the sight? That system
CT examination is called scientific. The
system where you call of letters when
lenses are set before your eyes is not
scientific, but only guess work. 1t
cannot be relied upon. We have met
a great number of people who got gas
ses fitted by this guess system
which failed to help their eyes-the
real trouble or defect was not located
and the glasses failed to give relief.
1t is foolish to try to get your eyes
properly fitted with cheap lenses and
cheap methods. The very best is the
most reliable and the cheapest in the
end.
If you want the best don't fail t.

Farm Help,

Farm Help. H.
The solution of the farm help prob.
lem lies largely with the farmers
themselves, according to my way of
thinking. If farmers will arrange
their work or reorganize their meth
DDS so they can keep men all the year
around instead Of picking up Tom,
Dick and Bill as they stray out into
the country during the rush season of
harvest, pay all they can afford, give
the men good living quarters and help
them to keep out Of the mire of ignor-
ance and Indifference by encouraging
the better side Of their nature, they
will not only secure a much higher
type Of workman, but perform real
service to humanity. Just keep in
mind that we are brothers all-rich
and poor, farmer and hired man-and
that every man is entitled to a square
deal.-A Hired Man. "a ~. 81

PROTECT THE HONEY MAKERS
Bees Should Have Neither Wind or
Sunshine During Winter-Empty
Building Is Best.

Put your bees in a sheltered place
until next spring. They should be
sheltered from both the wind and the
sun. Probably the best place to keep
them through the winter is in an
empty building. There is no danger
of bees freezing in the coolest
winter If they are protected from
the wind. When not protected during
blizzard they are often frozen by
the chilling wind. II the sun strikes
them cold spell coming Immediate
ly after warm weather finds the bees
unprepared for it. Changes in tenn
perature also cause the bees to eat
more honey than when an even tenn
perature is maintained. Thus, If tho
food supply is short, there is danger
Of them starving before spring flow
ers bloom. 81 55%#
When an empty building is not
available straw is often packed around
the hive and held in place by a box
little larger than the hive. This is
not SO satisfactory as the first method
suggested, for bees are often forgot
ten after a snow storm and are smoth-
cred before the snow melts from the
entrance. If they are given plenty of
food and good protection in the fall
and then left alone there will be Wig
orous swarm ready to make honey in
the spring. 49,.

SWEET SOUNDS A MYSTERY
Remarkable Hindu Musical lnstru,
ment Puzzles Those Who Hear 1t
for the First Time.

The Hindus have a number of mu,
steal instruments for which great
antiquity is claimed OF these there
Is one that is very curious, not 50
much ~ reason of it's form or struc.
ture, but because Of the fact that it Is
played in very peculiar manner. It
is not a stringed instrument, it Is not
a wind instrument, and it is not an
instrument of percussion. It consists
Of two small silver trumpets with q
very delicate apparatus within.
When the natives play upon this in.
strument they invariably excite the
greatest wonder in the foreigner, who
IS perplexed to determine how the
player produces the sounds, for he
does not place the instrument to hia
lips, but adjusts it to his neck. For,
eigners have thought that a player OF
such an instrument must be a ven.
triloquist, employing the trumpets to
convey false impression.
It appears, however, that the varia.
tons of tone are produced by the
variation In the quantity Of air pro,
pelled through the instrument by the
pulsat1ons of the neck.
Nothing could be more curious, II
Is said, than to witness a performance
upon this instrument and to hear the
sott, sweet, musical sounds that eman,
alto from the silver trumpets.-Har
per's Weekly.

Splendid Affair Given by United States

Ing at the kaiser's court, could have
been more imposing. The ambassa-
dor had at his side functionary
from the imperial court, who present
ed the guests. The ambassadors wife
was beautifully gowned.
The guests were announced by a
servant from the imperial ministry,
who wore black suit of eighteenth
century style, with lace jabot.
Mrs. Guild was greatly fatigued, for
she had to stand three hours with out
stretched hand in order that it might
be kissed by all the men, according
to the Russian fashion.
In the great dining hall on the floor
above, hung with pictures Of the Or
lofts of the last three centuries, was
a surprise for the guests. Instead Of
the usual tables with servants serv-

fruity variety.
