more probable that real trouble - (
ble will be all in ihfi-u's. j
This is an age of defective j
eyes , but not so much one of

the extensive use of glasses. \
Statistics show that blindness - t

per cent since , the advent of ' !
glasses for the correction of

If there is a gang of counterfoil-

such an institution exists in the

Several uountorfoit silver dollaiH
have hocn pasHoil during the pant
month or two at Arnold. They
are n very poor imitation , and thu
"shovor" of the "queer" has usually
picked his victims from among the

received one of thu Hpuriotis ooina

Not long Hiiu'u Dr. Peuuinpton
excited the uunoaity of the oi'.iKons

butter known aa an "autobiko. "
Up to Tuesday the doctor could
claim superiority over ull cyclist ? ,
ns ho could glide over the country
without any effort , aa a nasolino
motor was the propelling power.
But the doctor's glory oamu sud
denly to an end Tuesday ovouing ,
and now ho only holdo second
place.
F. II. Youug received an auto
mobile by freight Tuesday after
noon and by 0 p m. ho waa gliding

It waa the lirst horaoIosH carri
age that had invaded the peaoo and

thronged the Htreot cornorH to got
a gliuipuo of it as it turned thorn
ao gracefully at .lightning speed.
No uoiso esoapea from it , as does
the autobiko , and it in more easily
governed , apparently , than a well
