Five Cent Cigars

In line with the pocket book, and
keeping step with the thought of
the American people at all times, to
purchase the best grade at rhc right
price, nickel cigars, during :hc past

and sale, to such an extent, that II

entire United States, the old time
original San Fclicc has made such
strides, that it is necessary for the

Old AGE ANNUITIES

A bill for old age pensions on a national scale has
passed the Canadian House of Commons. Meanwhile
comprehensive plan for taking care of the country's
aged self-respecting basis is being worked
out by the minister ii labor.
The latter plan counts on paying perhaps dollar
4 Gay for the rest Of his life 10 every worker who
reaches the age Of e5 years The fund would bc sup
piled by regular contributions from the worker the
employer the national government and the provincial
government, amounting respectively to 9, 8, and
cents week N the case of worker starting at the
age of p years and naturally rising if the start is
made later IN life. These small payments might be
increased to any desired amount in order to increase
the old-age payments above the basic dollar day
Some such legislation seems likely to be adopted in
Canada before long. It would be regarded as pretty
radical III this country. And perhaps ii isn't needed
so much here.
II our present prosperity continues, surely there
should be ltte difficulty on the part of any normal

SAVING THEIR EYES

The Massachusetts state board of optometry advises
radio fans to close their eyes while listening and thus
conserve their eyesgh-. 1t will probably be a new
IDEA to the tans that they have been listening with
their eyes as we'll IS their ears
The specialists also recommended closing the eyes
occasional y while listening to a concert or a speaker
Besides relaxing the eyes that aids in thought concen
tratlon In reading book. it is advisable to stop and
close the eyes for couple of minutes every 10 or 20
pages.
The point is that the eyes are subjected to greater
STRAIN III roSt people than any other organs of the
pony. nat not only affects them directly but dis
'ulps me nervous systems and causes headaches
MOST people use their eyes a great deal more than
they neec tonot necessarily in reading too much but
IN moving the organs continually, and thus tring
them, when a deliberate and intelligent use
would keep them fresh and fit
One common abuse of the eyes is to turn them di
rectly upon every object or far in which nerso,
happens to be interested, thus imposing continual
strain upon the muscles moving the eyebals and those
1ocussng the lenses and also upon the focal center of
the retlna, or inner nerve, at the back of the eve
Most TIM gs can be we'll enough for practical
purposes without turning and focusing the eyes di-
recty upon them This restful trick of seeing what is
going on without shifting the eyes is especially nsefI in
