WE BEG TO ANNOUNCE

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

The old style of cement bifocale 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 bifosals. Nocement to blister; no thin segments to lose off.

Call and inspect this line. We grind Kryptoks in regular or torio form.

Sir Hiram Maxim" and China.:

He (Sir Hiram Maxim) also, in common with the other anti-opium advocates who are so anxious for Britain's" bonour" (why do they not show the same solicitude for ' China's ?), ignores the fact that the first step towards effective opium suppression in China came from Lord Morley when Becretary of State for India, and not from China at all. Apparently, too, he is ignorant of the fact tha when the prohibition movement started, about 80 per cent. of the opium consumed in China was native grown, or, if he is aware of this, he passes it over in a grossly disingenuous manner. It would be waste of time to deal. with every point in detail, but the concluding paragraph of the letter is too choice to pass un- noticed: "Daring the last hand- red years Obina has paid the English eight hundred million pounds sterling for opium. A small percentage of this enormous sum would have enabled her to have built and equipped a navy, powerful enough to protect her self against the world, and would have saved the indemnities that have been wrung from her amounting to over one hundred and sixty-three million pounds." Of these indemnities, a very large proportion is the compensation that China was required to pay for her active share in the Boxer outrages, so it would seem that Sir Hiram regrets the opium traffic because it made it impossible for Chins to protect herself against the world in 1800 and masssore every foreigner in the Empire with impunity. Thank you, Sir Allram!
