A Free Prescription You Can Have
Filled and Use at Home


Philadelphia, Pa. Victims of eye strain
and other eye weaknesses, and those who
wear glasses, will be glad to know that
according to DR. Lewis there is real hope
and help for them. Many whose eyes
were failing say they have had their eyes
restored by this remarkable prescription
and many who once wore glasses say
they have thrown them away. One man
says, after using it: Il was almost blind
Could not see TO read at all. Now / can
read everything without my glasses and
my eyes do not hurt any more. At night
they would pain dreadfully. Now they

WOMEN RUN OWN EXCHANGES
Much Expense Is Attached to Conduct ina These Praseworthy Enter
 prises in Many Cities.

The general management Of ex- changes is about the same, wherever situated, says writer in the Womans Home Companion. A room or shop is provided for the reception and display of women's work, with paid saleswom- en to conduct the exchange on busi- ness basis, competent bookkeepers reg. istering goods received and keeping ac- curate accounts of sales and moneys due to consignors.
 It Is obvious that such an Organiza- ton, even on a small scale, is an ex- pensive undertaking and the items or rent, salaries, coal, lights, stationery, wrappings, telephone and postage con- prise a formidable expense account, which should justly be borne by those who benefit from its maintenance. The revenues to meet expenses are ob- tained in three ways. First, by small annual fee of from S2 to $5 from each consignor whose work Is accepted; sec ond, by a stipulated commission Of from 10 per cent to 9 per cent, ac- cording to the size and location of the exchange, which Is deducted from all sales; and third, from the dues of the board of managers and their personal donations.

HOME SHOULD BE EXPRESSIVE
Character Of the Owner Shows in the Architecture of the Dwelling and
 the Decorations Within.

The essential in the art of home building is the ability to suit your own taste-to express your own nature. Your taste may not at all coincide with that of your neighbor. but that is not important. There are as many fndi- vidual expressions of the art that is within one as there are leaves on a tree and there Is no good reason why the expression of the individual should not continue in the home itself.
 Imagine what thrilling adventure in human nature all of us might have in the course of day spent in making calls if our neighbors and acquaint. ances only allowed their souls and minds to express themselves in the houses they build and furnish, says an exchange. It is not hard to imagine such an adventure, for about every one has seen one such home. But these are by no means frequently found.
 For peoples characters do show in their homes-in the architecture of the dwelling, the decorations within, the StittliOu Ol lut luTulluTc, tNtu III lne pictures and the way they are hung. To persons who are not especially ob- servant this fact is as plain as the fact that one can always detect the pres ence of feminine fingers in the arrange ment of the bric-a-brac. the flowers or vase on the stand or the books and magazines on the library table. The thing is so palpably human that 1t is almost impossible not to recognize it.

Describing Happiness.

There are thousands of short story writers and minor poets who can deal very effectively with battlefields, slums, maniacs. shipwrecks, disease and thousand forms of human de- generacy, observes the New York 1n- dependent, but they are incapable of making their characters happy with out making them bored-and the read CT likewise. The pessimist declares that evil, suffering and villainy are the natural materials of literature be- cause they are the fundamental real ities of life and hanpiness is only a mirage which disal Bears as one ap- breaches it. The only trouble with this theory is that 1t isn't so. We know plenty of people who have been happy, though we have yet to meet the first of them who could describe how 1t felt.

AUTHORS AS LONG WALKERS
Dickens, Wadsworth, Southey, Faw- cett and Others Were Chased as
 Pedestrians Of Prominence.

It is calculated that Wordsworth, in his many years of sauntering, must have travelled a distance of 1S0,009 miles. What sights he saw during suce prolonged and delightful wanderings only those who have the poets mind and eye can even guess, observes Lon- don Tit-Bits.
 Charles Dickens was conhrmea tramp. and no doubt acquired his ex- perience of life on the road" from &C., .fual acauaintance with all sorts ef yagabends and odd characters.
 One of the most remarkable of un- professional walkers was Professor Wilson. the Christopher North of lit erature. His fine physique and great endurance prompted him to the per formance of wonderful feats, which seemed to him entirely a matter of course. He once walked 40 miles in eight hours, and at another time walked a distance of 80 miles in "A hours.
 Henry Fawcett, also, was tireleSs walker. and one who. when deprived of sight. did not think of relinquishing this among many forms of exercise. His was a familiar figure on the roads about Cambridge, and there is no ex- aggeration In saying that few men blessed with all his senses could enjoy nature more throughly than he.
 Southey, worn and preyed upon by mental application and tue practical anxieties of everyday life. found his greatest relief in tramping about the country.
 John Stuart Mill delighted in pedes- trian tours, and Charles Lamb, though he loved town better than country, was one who believed in sweeping cobwebs from the brain by brisk and continuous walking.

Was a Good Waiter,

He had just reached the philisoph. ical stage when he slipped into a res- taurant for a bit to eat. Then he sat staring ahead, quietly thoughtful In expression, and waited.
 It is admitted he did some waiting, too. What happened to his order couldn't be understood outside the peculiar restaurant kitchen, but he spent half an hour sitting there star ing ahead of him.
 At last it came. AS the waitress put the order before him he started from his deep study, as if he had forgotten he had an order coming. Then, look Ing up at the fair transporter of edi- bles, he said:
 You don't look day older!"

This budget was reaffirmed by the delegates at the Southern Department Conference, Dallas. October II, and the states comprising this department have set their quota not less than one million dollars f$1,000,00ol.
 The campaign is the outgrowth of a thoroughly organized movement covering the whole country, and ap- proved by civil and military authorl- ties and religious workers every where. More than 200 representa-. tives from Arkansas, Texas. Oklaho- ma. Louisiana, Arizona, and New Mexic. constituting the Southern De- partment, met on October II at Dal- las, Texas. to consider the great pro. gram as outlined by the National War Work Council at the meeting held in New York City on September 21, at the gathering in New York, the work among the American troops of the United States, both in this coun- try and In France, was thoroughly considered. Moreover, large thought ''~S SA'NA fuS oPPoA to oCA C the men of the armies of Russia, France, and Italy, and in prison camps.
 The delegates representing the Southern Department, including twen- ty-fiye leading business men and pas tors from Arkansas, which met in Dallas, faced the great task of provid- ing for the million and a half of our own troops who are now being served in some five hundred buildings in the cantonments in this country and in a large number of places in France and Russia. The group was deeply inter- ested in the work already being done among the troops in Europe and ex- pressed eradication at the deep inter est manifested in our work by Presi- dent Wilson.

 At the Dallas Conference R. A. Long, the millionaire lumberman and Christian leader of Kansas City, Hart. Y. NJ. c. A.
