have their eyes fitted for fear of
errors, and some think they

expert optometrists who make a
regular territory and are as re-
liable as though they had elab-
crate offices 10 city DR.. o. NJ.

SAD DAYS AHEAD FOR COAL MAN;
DOCTORS ADVICE BEING HEEDEI
By WILLIAM BRADY, NJ. D.

A MEAT market proprietor who re-
n Gently had occasion to diminish the
size of his market by one half and econ
cmize in other sensible ways, gave out
as the reason for this contraction a
statement that people were eating less
meat than they did a few years ago.
that the doctors are to blame for the fall
ing off in the demand,
That is encouraging. Doctor Osler's
dctum is at last accepted-we eat too
much.
Now let's get after the coal man, He
enjoys n monopoly in a commodity of
for us. There is no doubt that most of
us keep our dwellings too warm. 1t
is high time to inaugurate a propagandum
against the coal man.
The coal man looks with feelings of
sadness upon the fad of sleeping on the
upstairs porch He is no ardent advocate
of the open-air schoolroom, nor the tent
wards for the treatment of pneumonia.
nor the outdoor treatment of anemia,
nervous trouble tuberculosis and con-
valcscence in general.
Coal dealers used to have "A fatheriy
liking for thermometers They even
sent little thermometers around to old
and prospective customers as a souvenir
of the Happy New Year. But the propa-
sandum against the catching cold delu-
sion has changed all this. Coal dealers
these days send customers nothing but
the bill. 1t seems that people have been
abusing the thermometers. Formerly
everybody endeavored to see how high
the mercury could be kept without break
ing the glass; now the average house
holder tries TO keep his living rooms at
the lowest possible temperature consis-
tent with physical comfort. For it is
getting nolsed about that the warmer the
atmosphere OF living apartments, the
better for cold" microbes and catarrhal
troubles; the cooler, and hence the more
moisture in the air, the healthier for
everybody in the household, from baby
TO grandma
This sort of movement the coal dealer
has no patience with at all, Good COM

ers pTacticed is good enough for him
