WE BEG TO ANNOUNCE

that we can now manufacture on our premises the new Kryptok invisible bifocal Lens,

The old sigle of cement bifocals with their disfiguring and annoying dividing line has been supplanted by a new lens with two foci, the upper portion of the glass for distance and the lower for reading, ground from one single piece of glass.

You who wear two pairs of glasses may now use one pair instead. No one can tell that you wear bifocals. No cement to blister; no thin segments to lose off.

Call and inspect this line. Kryptoks in regular or toric form,

Many will be asking: Who was St. Andrew. that his name should be s0 | closely identified with the reel and "etrathspey, the baggin and the quaich? The surprising cou fession has to be made that St. Andrew was no Scotsman i Scotland's patron saint never amelt the heather on the bonnie braes of Scotland, never danced to the skirl of the bagpipes, and it is extremely doubtful whether he ever tasted parritoh or whusky, or would even pass muster as Scotsman by pronouncing correct- ly the magic word Auchter: muohty. Nor must the fact that balls are given in his honour he allowed to convey the impression:

The Balkan Cloud Breaking. Bulgaria has lost the flower of her manhood, and now stakes her future with patriotic striplinge who would wage her battles. This fact alone, coupled with that recorded in the cablegrams that Bulgarian losses are estimated at 100,000, appeals with eloquent tongue to humanity at large that there should be a cessation of: hostilities. The influences of this struggle are world wide. The bourses of the greatest cities are very sensitive, trade is readily affected even in distant parts of the globe. The reassuring intel ligance recorded by Renterstreng- thens the belief that exhaustion has compelled belligerents to Fesson, and while it is to be hoped negotiations in the direction of peace will be satisfactory it is gra tifying to learn that Russia has at last shown her hand by stating that she will not depart from the concert of Europe and will not brge Servia to achieve her enda The Balkan cloud is breaking at Inst

Turkish Reverses. Tho attempts to train and or- ganise Ottoman oorps on the Ger man model may have been carried either too far or not far enough. The Balkan League may owe ita successes to the skill shown in striking before the reforms initist ed by Field-Marshall von der Goltz could fulfil their purpose. Things might have turned out differently if the Turks had resolved to leave Adrianople to take care of itself, and had concentrated their main force at Muradli or even nearer to the capital on the Chatalja-line. of defence. There is a wide field for conjecture open on each and all of these uncertainties.
