SCIENTIFIC REMERIES FOR MANY EYE TROUBLES
Walter Irwin M O
Although the question has been
asked and answered many times it
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

The Wonderful Diatom
One of the most wonderful things in
vegetable life is a beautiful and mi
nute class of seaweeds called diatoms
They belong to the seaweed family
yet they may be found by the thou
sands in any roadside ditch fresh or
salt water lake or even in cisterns
wells springs etc Most species of
plants are made up of an infinite num
ber of little cells but with the diatom
it is otherwise Each representative
of this wonderful family of plants is
formed of but a single cell and this so
minute that it would require 2 500 of
the most common form laid end to

While speaking of Kryptoks we
do not want you to 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

OLD TIME LECAL METHODS

Tlie testimony of a ghost wouil uot
now count for much in a court of I
but the day has been when it uj
sufficed to hang a man There v- a
ghostly accuser in a cast- with vlch
the readers of Scott are familiar iou
after the 13 an English soldier
near Braemar met a violent
death Years passed and then came a
I story 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 district more than
commonly given to superstition
me jury seemed disposed to find the
two men charged guilty of the murJer
but it happened that the principal wit
ness spoke only Gaelic Now said
the counsel for the defense in wiiit
language did the ghost speak In
as good Gaelic as I ever heard in Loch- I
aber was the reply Prettv irnnil for
the ghost of an English soldier said I
counsel and that quo tion and com-
ment saved the necks of the men at the
bar The jury could believe in a chost
but not in an English ghost speaking 1

NAMING A TOWN
Hovr Abilene Came to Be 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 English authority is the ideal
nourishment for thin folk A teacupful
taken at night immediately before re
tiring is said to give marvelous results
To be at its best it must be perfectly
made then thinned with sweet cream
Taken in that condition and warm it
is agreeable as well as fattening and
produces just that sense of satisfied
hunger essential to ideal rest It is
claimed that psrseverance in the treat
ment yields such apparent results that
the cheeks can be seen to expand from
day to day
The Pepper Vine
The nenner vine arrows host- n n
wooded valley where there is plenty of
moisture and abundant foliage to pro
tect it from the heat of the sun It is
given a rude sort of cultivation The
growers plant it keeping the grass
from its roots and when the tree near
which it is planted has no lower
branches strings or poles are placed in
proper position to enable the vine to
climb the tree It needs no further at
tention
