seems necessary to reassure the inter ested ones again and again before they reach the point of making even an inquiry as to what Kryptoks will really do for them Again briefly describing the Kryp toks are new and scientific glasses composed of a series of lenses accur ately ground and hermetically sealed together which once complete have every appearance of a single highly finished lens and can be made for any style of spectacles or eyeglass mountings answering every purpose of two pairs of glasses In other words they possess two distinct focal powers which enable the wearer to see perfectly at long or short distance without the necessity of changing from one pair of glasses to another In short they replace all other bi focal glasses of the old style two-in-one with a lens perfectly simple in appearance and absolutely accurate in focus without the dividing line They do away with the objectionable mark before the eye and give qualities of sight entirely unobtainable in any other lens The one and only objection that can be offered to the Kryptok Is the cost of manufacturing them But for strict reliable business like methods the patentee and manufacturers of this wonderful lens have done more to lift the spectacle business above the plane of commercialism than any other lens makers in the world and although the Kryptoks cost at least 1000 a pair they are in reality a good business investment for the fol lowing reasons They are much more durable than the old style bifocals lasting many years longer than the ordinary lenses When the change of focus for ad vancing years is required it is easi accomplished in the Kryptoks rt a slight portion of the original cost They are sanitary as there is nothing to gather dust and dirt as THROAT EXERCISES Evil Tlmt Come From Mljmne of the Vocal Orsraiix The chronic sore throat Is not infre quently produced by the misrse of the J vocal organs Very often th t unruly little member the tongue is account j ble for the dWIculty as It 13 for a great I many other troubles in tills transitory life Many people have a habit when talking of pushing the tongue so far bade against the delicate membranes that line the throat that irritation more or less painful is caused and if it con tinues any length ol time ulcers will form and so will a doctors bill Control of the tongue is excellent in all senses of the word Physically this organ may be managed by depressing it into a hollow at a point three-quarters of an inch back of where the tin of it comes when in a natural position in the mouth and at the same time singing very light head tones Thte exercise requires some p tience at first but the habit of keening tie tongue down is soon acquired In speaking or singing it should not be al lowed to hoop up and fill the mouth thus interfering with the free passage of the tones of the voice from the throat to the front of the mouth where they should strike and then escape clear as a bell This hooping up of the tongue in the mouth is the cause of much of the indistinct and slovenly utterances to which Ave are too often obliged to listen In many people we notice the line from the point of the cij to tle neck is in the form of a right angle In a shapely throat this line forms a curve just as a canarys does when the small yellow artist is warbling his carols To develop the throat and make this angle a curve stand before a mirror so that you may watch the throat swell out Now thrust your tongue out as far as it will go then draw it back quickly and forcibly at the same time bringing it downward in the mouth as far as you can Place your thumb and forefinger against the larynx common ly called the Adams apple and if you are making the right movement you will feel the larynx pass downward i or a week or two make the move ments lightly After that time put as much force into it as you can The exercise should be practiced for a few minutes several times a day to insure rapid and good results To fill up the hollows of the neck stand correctly and then slowly fill the lungs with air without elevating your shoulders As the air is forced upward into the throat hold it there a faw sec onds and then expel slowly This ex ercise is best performed soon after ris ing in the morning and before retiring at night New York Post Time anil Eternity The stream of time never runs drv 2 and the ocean of

overlook the spe cial advantages of our new Toris cus lens for to those who itp nnt in terested in Kryptoks the Toriscus lens will appeal strongly as there is hardly a combination in any lens that cannot be worn with more comfort be having them ground in the Toriscus shape This means that even though the lenses you may be wearing are correct m focal power they can be made much more comfortable in the new shape than in the present form It adds but 300 in having them thus ground and who would not pay the difference for additional comfort in something you use every day of your life To those

of a communication from another world A farm servant declared that in the night a spirit had appeared to him de claring itself to be the ghost of the soldier whose bones it is said lay still unburied The highlander must see to their decent interment and have the murderers two men named brought to justice The highlander promised but did not keep his word and a second and third time the spirit appeared and upbraided him for Ids breach of faith Alarmed at last and uo longer daring to delaj the man called a companion and went to the spot which the spirit had indicated and there found the bones of the mur dered warrior concealed in a moorland tract called the hill of Christie The story of the highlander came to the ears of an anti Jacobite who caus ed the matter to be brought to trial before the court of judiciary Edin burgh There the tale was corroborat ed by a worn a who had seen a naked figure enter the place on the night spoken of by the man It was an age of superstition in a

Selected by Mrs Ilerney Abilene was named by the wife of the founder of the town T I Ilersey With her husband she had come to central Kansas in the spring of 1S37 They lived in a log house on the west siue or uud creek and were the fn t settlers on the town site although no town then existed nor was there one until 1SG0 Then C n Thompson who had moved to the county from Leaven worth bought from the Kansas Pa cific Railway company a tract east of Herseys and laid out a town Whey it came to the naming of the future city Mr Thompson went to Hersey and asked him to suggest a name was the reply let my do it She is a great reader wife Mrs Hersey was a graduate of a seminary in the east hor linto library which she carried with her in her wanderings was one of the ties that bound her to the girlhood life She was a devout Methodist and knew her Bible from cover to cover When she was asked to name the town she turned to the New Testament for sug gestion There in the third chapter of Luke first verse she found this Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar Pontius Pilate being go ernor of Judaea and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene Call the town Abilene said she It means City of the Plains and that exactly describes the location So Abilene it was and in the fight for the county seat wherein it contest ed with Newport Smoky Hill and Un ion City all long since passed away good fortune attended it and the new town became the county capital for the 37S dwellers then in Dickinson county Kansas City Star Fle slnnulvins Food Cream gruel according to an emi nent
