SCRIPTIoN--TRY 1T IF YOUR EYES
GIVE YOU TROUBLE

Thousands OF people suffer from eye trou-
bles, because they do not know what to do.
They know some good home remedy for every
other minor ailment. but none for their eye
troubles. They neglect their eyes, because
the trouble is not sufficient to drive them to
an eye specialist, who would. anyway, charge
them a heavy fee. As last resort they go
to an optician or to the five and ten-cent
store, and oftentimes get glasses that they
do not need. or which, after being used two
or three months. do their eyes more injury
than good. Here is simple prescription
that everyone should use:
grains DIPLOMA q tablet
ounces water
Use three or four times day to battle the
eyes. This prescription and the simple OPP
tona system keeps the eyes clean. sharpens
the vision and quickly overcomes inflammation
and irritation; weak. watery. overworked,
tired eyes and other similar troubles are
greatly benefited and oftentimes cured by its
use. Many reports show that wearers of
glasses have discarded them after few weeks
use 1t is good for the eyes and contains no
ingredient which would injure the most SEN
sitive eyes Of an infant or the aged. Any
druggist can fill this prescription promptly.
Try it and know for once what real eye COM
fort is.

A Unique Country Home.

When Robert Moran, head of a great
ship building concern in Seattle retired
from business half dozen years ago,
he determined to erect little world of
bis own. He is one man who has done
it. 1t is on an estate of 4,S00 acres of
sea front, lakes and mountains, with one
or two small islands thrown in for good
measure. He designed and built his own
house from the brass screws up.
First were established sawmill,
woodworking shops, machine shops,
brass foundry, blacksmith shop, and dry
house. Every floor from the kitchen to
the attic is of teak in psrquetry beau
tifully finished The rough logs, over
10000 feet. were imported from India.
The woodwork from the basement to
the roof, and all the furniture except
some which is leather covered, and the
rugs, were made on the premises from
mahogany logs, imported from Nicara-
qua and Honduras. Beamed ceilings and
'paneled walls abound. and there is not
an inch of veneer in the house. Dignity
and simple elegance are the keynotes.
There is an almost entire absence OF
holdings; rounded corners and beveled
effects are universal
The exquisite brown tones of the
Nicaragua mahogany prevail, and are re-
lieved by doors of solid two-inch sheets
of red Honduras mahogany. Even closet
doors are of the same massive elegance.
They are without a panel or mark,
and are mounted on heavy bronze hinges
that turn on lignum vitae cones-Subur-
ban Life-The Countryside Magazine.

privilege of voting whether their county
shall or shall not take the part to which
it is entitled in the new system of Irish
government, during the first six years of
that system. The four counties in
which there is believed to be an anti
home rule majority could thus stand
aside for time and see how the rest OF
misunderstanding mors than one-half
of Ulster--governed itself in the exer-
else of the freedom it had won. 1t may
be too much to expect the anti-home
rulers to agree to this, because the vot
ing would show how largely the prov
ince of Ulster is in favor of home rule.
But is ii too much to expect that
when they find intimidation has failed,
they will refrain from their threatened
rebellion. and show some loyalty to
king and parliament by bowling to the
law which parliament has enacted and
the king has signed? That is certainly
not too much to ask OF them. Common
sense counsels compliance. Were they
to commence civil war they would un-
doubtedly get the worst of it. They
may have the 100000 armed men of whom
they brag, but what then. 1t is true
that the government has only a military
force of 22,450 men in all Ireland, and
not one-third OF them in Ulster But a
division of Orange volunteers would prob
ably not stand ten minutes before a reg
iment of regulars. Let us hope that
there will be no putting of this to the
test. The last home rule battle should
now be fought not in Ulster, but in the
House of Lords.-Boston Herald.

The Home Rule Victory.

The Irish home rule bill will not
again tax the time of the House of Com
mons. BY yesterdays vote the House
completed its work, passing the bill for
the third time in three successive ses-
sions, and thus making its defeat by the
House of Lords impossible. Debates
there vet will be in the Commons on
questions of Irish government, but
nevermore a hope of frightening the As
quith cabinet into any weakening of its
polity or any change of word or syllable
in its proposals These 20 now to the
time, and their third rejection by that
House will not be of the slightest con-
sequence, as the royal assent will be
given in accordance with the parliament
act and the bill will be thereby incor-
porated in the law of the land.
But for the sake of peace, and for
that reason only, the opposition will be
offered an opportunity to pass an amend
ing bill that may be placed on the
statute at the same time, this supple
mentary measure being introduced in
the House of Lords. Mr.. Asquith still
entertains the hope that an agreement
may be reached on the Ulster question,
though 1t does not seem that any con-
cession will pacify the faction that has
been led into criminal conspiracy by Sir
Edward Carson. In the event of an
agreement being brought about it would
be embodied in the amending bill, which
would then be passed by the Lords and
Immediately after by the Commons, thus
happily reconeiling the combatants in
a long political fight, and letting Ire
land begin her self-government with the
good will of all parties.
But there will be an amending bill
even if there be no agreement. Mr..
Asquith is going to take the course
which we predicted some time ago-he
is going to put into the form of proposed
legislation the Ulster compromise which
he has repeatedly offered. His offer is
that. prior to the meeting of the Irish
legislature, the parliamentary electors
in each Ulster county shall have the
