Whatever You Do Don't Neglect
Your Eyes, Says DR.. Lewis, Who


spared the trouble and expense of ever
getting glasses. Eye troubles of many
descriptions may be wonderfully bene-
fitted by following the simple rules.
Here is the prescription: Go to any
active drug store and get a bottle of
Bon-Opto tables. Drop one Bon-Opto
tablet in a fourth of a glass of water
and allow to dissolve. With this liquid
battle the eyes two or four times daily.
You should notice your eyes clear up
perceptibly right from the start and
inflammation will quickly disappear.
If your ewes are bothering you, even
a little, take steps to save them before
it is too late. Many hopelessly blind
might have been saved if they had
cared for their eyes in time.
NOTE-Another prominent Physician to
whom the above article submitted
said: Bon Optic is n very remarkable
remedy. Its constituent ingredients are
well known to eminent eye specialists and
widely prescribed by them" The manu-
facturers guarantee it to strengthen eye
sight 90 per cent in one weeks time in
many instances refund the money. 1t
can be obtained from any good druggist,
and is of the very few preparations |
feel should be kept on hand for regular
use in almost every family. 1t is sold in
this city by all leading druggists, including
Geo. W. Stansfield.-Adv.

A Free Prescription You Can Have
Filled and Use at Home.

Philadelphia. Pa. : Do you wear
glasses? Are you a victim of eye
strain or other eye weaknesses? If
so. you will be glad to know that &C
cording to DIR. Lewis there is real hope
for you. He says neglect causes more
eye troubles and poor sight than any
other one thing. Many whose eyes
were failing say they had their eyes
restored thru the principle of this
wonderful free prescription. One man
says after trying it: II was almost
blind; could not see to read at all.
Now 1 can read everything without
any glasses and my eyes do not water
any more. At night they would pain
dreadfully; now they feel fine all the
time 1t was like a miracle to me-"
A lady who used it says: THE atmos-
phere seemed hazy with or without
glasses, but after using this prescrip-
ton for fifteen days everything seems
clear 1 can even read fine print
without glasses" 1t is believed that
thousands who wear glasses can now
discard them in a reasonable time and
multitudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to be

Delegate Eugene Treiber gave the
other delegates of the Trades Council an
outline of the difficulties now faced by
the Brewery Workers, at the last meet

Gates that the great maj ority of its men,
bers are thrown out of employment and
the membership materially decreased, al
though this is being offset somewhat by
the organization of the soft drink work
ers of the city who are becoming MEM
bers of the union.
The pluck which has always char
acterized the Brewery Workers, how
ever, is being manifested during these
days of adversely and the organization
will be kept in existence and as strong
as possible in the hope that better days
are yet to come, for the impression pre-
walls extensively that the ban on beer
will not be allowed to remain perman-
ent.

Brewery Workers union serves to hurt
the labor movement for that union has
at all times stood strongly in support
of the other unions. No carpenter,
plumber, painter or other craftsman ever
got into a. brewery on a job without
being called upon to show his card and
the brewery workers have ever been in
sistent in their demands for union label
merchandise. They have never failed to
come forward with their financial and
moral support in aid of sister union in
time of need and they have been a
mighty factor for good in the support
of the movement.
The Bartenders' Union is also hard
hit by the same conditions of course,
and large number of its members have
secured employment in other lines.

Other Educational Achievements
of Labor, Including Share in

Next to life and liberty we consider
education the greatest blessing bestowed
| upon mankind"
This is how a general meeting OF
| Mechanics and workingmen expressed
themselves about education way back in
the year 1929. The meeting then passed
| the following resolution:
! Resolved, That the public funds
| should be appropriated Ito Reasonable
| extent) to the purpose of education up
+, on a regular system that shall insure
the opportunity to every individual of
| obtaining competent education before
| he shall have arrived at the age of ma
| turity."
At that time, the only free schools
were pauper schools Working men and
women would not send their children to
pauper schools. mo system of educa-
ton which a freeman can accept has
yet been established for the poor" de-
clared meeting in Philadelphia in this
same year 1929.
Between 1926 and 1850 waged the
battle for public schools. Side by side
with labor fought the Humanitarians,
rightly distressed by the spectacle of idle
children roaming the streets of Boston,
of numbers of women and children at
work in the cotton mills Among the
leaders of the Humanitarians were
Emerson, Thoreau, William E. Chan
ming, and Horace Mann.
HumanitarianS and working folk to-
gether urged this cause of public educa-
ton. They tell us that the fight was al
most as bitter as the difference over the
abolition of slavery. -.
By 1850 the fight was practically won.
Almost all northern states then had their
unsupported, publicly controlled and
directed, non-sectarian schools. The
South with its widely scattered agricul-
tural population had a different educa-
tioral problem.
But labor had not finished its fight for
education. In 1908 the Denver Con-
vention of the American Federation of
Labor created a special committee on
education headed by the late John
Mitchell. The committee made a survey
of the educational situation especially as
it affected industrial workers. The re-
suit was the drafting of the bill passed
by Congress on February %, 1917, and
now known as the Smith-Hughes Voca-
tional Education Law. This law pro-
vides for vocational education for boys
and girls of Ia and over still at school,
or for people already at work and need
ing further training.
The Federal Board for Vocational
Education, established by the Smith
Hughes Law was later entrusted with
the rehabilitation of the disabled veter-
ans of the World War
And labor is not through. 1t is now
eagerly awaiting the passage of the bill
providing for the rehabilitation of per-
sons disabled in industry. The Senate
bill, known as S. 49, passed the Senate
without dissenting vote The House

Representatives October II, 1919, by a

has done his part the President may still
further reduce or change or even regroup
services to secure increased economy and
efficiency, and he must submit to Congress
work program, spending program and
revenue raising program for 100 per cent
OF public business, excluding only the
cost of Congress itself.
"After the Presidents budget program
goes in to Congress no officer or employe
OF any department or establishment may
ask either Congress or any committee or
any member for an increase unless re-
quested to do so by either House or by
committee having jurisdiction over ap-
proportions or revenues. Congress is free
to increase a budget, if it wishes, but
under the new plan would be less apt to
make needless increases because it would
have the necessary information to show
that the original budget was large enough.
"The bookkeeping, accounting and
4 auditing are taken away from the Treasury
and, put in the hands of comptroller
general over whose appointment the con-
troversy arose that defeated the passage
of the bill last spring.

possibility for telling where economies

annual report or at special times if Con-
gress requests make recommendations
looking to greater economy or efficiency
in the public expenditures. The Bureau
of Efficiency must conduct a continued
investigation of the public expenditures
and from time to time submit
to Congress a report of its investigations
with recommendations looking to greater
efficiency and economy in the conduct OF
the public business"

national rights are set above international

: Fortunately for the race there are always
teachers calling it back to reverence for

even be theists, they may have no desire to
live always. but deeply planted in their
souls is worship, OF DUTY peremptory and
absolute" such as George Eliot confessed

The United States today has no reason
to fear that any of her rights among the
peoples of the world are to be taken from
her. She has much reason to feaE that
she will choose to evade her obvious du-

rights that they have unconsciously become

Accept the Universe.

Margaret Fuller, noted American of
the last century, used to say 81 accept the
universe" And when Thomas Carlyle
heard of it he said "Gad, she'd better!"
But accepting the universe is not so easy.
1t means, for one thing, being willing to
see it as it is, and not blinking facts that
may not be to ones taste.
One need not keep his eye on the
slaughterhouse. But when he thinks of the
universe he must not forget that it is there,
an essential part of every civilization, and
that the world is full of carnivorous crea-
lures armed and taught by nature to prey
on other animals; that there is perpetual
struggle for existence, with death at last for
the stupid. the improyident and the unwary;
that the sins of the fathers are often visited
on their children in disease, in weakness,
or in public contempt; that the innocent
may suffer with the guilty; and that mans
long struggle with the world has left him
subject to fear and anger, jealousy and
suspicion, often cruel, inconsideratc, and
grossly unreasonable
And accepting the universe means that
one does not grumble about these things
or any others like the Siberian Eskimo,
who beats his gods because the hills are
so hard to climb and the winters are so
cold. but adjusts himself happily to it all,
taking the bitter with the sweet, and maxi
ing the most out of his life wherever his
lot may happen to be cast; that he won't
cry over spilled milk or hope to eat his
cake and have it, too; but win pay the price
of his blessings in pain and sweat, and
take it all as a part of the days work,
without whining like spoiled child for i'm
possibilities.

Escaped French Convict
Emulates Jean Vatican

Victor Hugo's famous novel Les Mis-

convict, lean Vatican, is recalled in Paris
by the arrest of coppersmith named Jules
Renault, who has been discovered by the
police after an interval of thirty years to
be an escaped convict
Renault, when he was very young, COM
mitted an offense and was sentenced to
term of deportation. He managed to es-
cape and coming to Paris set up honestly
in life as coppersmith. He met young
girl with whom be fell in love, but, fearing
to disclose his criminal record, he was
unable to marry her.
AS soon as he was arrested, Renault
asked permission from the judicial authori-
ties to marry his sweetheart before start
ing for the penal settlements This was
granted, and accompanied by couple OF
warders, he was able to leave his prison
for brief marriage ceremony.
A movement is on foot to petition the
president to grant free pardon to Renault
on account of his sincere repentance as
manifested by thirty years OF honest eiti..
