IThey are ground with extremely deep | curves, thus enabling the glasses to #et very near the eye without the dis- comfort of having the eyvelashes brush them. The Toric lenses shut out all back light, so yeu get no reflection of ob- dects behind you. The field of vision is greatly in- creased by the use of Toric because vou always look through the blasses et right angles to their surfaces. These lenses are becoming very popular with the best class of trade. Why don’t you wear Torics? We would e glad to fit you out with a pair. R. C.

A boarding house is to be opened across the street from J. Pierpont Mor- gan's residence in New York. The lady who is backing the project an nounces that she will have accommo- dations for about thirty bankers, law- yers and doctors, but she will not have room for any workingmen. Whether she proposes to discriminate against workingmen because she thinks Mr. Meorgan might object to them, she does not .explain, ‘We may suppose, however, that she thinks Mr. Morgan might be pained if it were necessary for him to see men in overalls and jumpers daily going in and coming out of the house across the way. She cannot, perhaps, be blamed for entertaining such an idea. But Miss Anne Morgan might be in no wise distressed if the boarding house were to be opened up te workingmen. She has recently shown much interest in_workingmen and their welfare, In any event, It is hoped that the owners of the house have not taken steps to force Mr. Morgan to buy it at an exorbitant price. That would be a sad blow to the dignity of the bankers and lawvers and doctors who expect to board there.—Chicago Record-Herald. John T.
