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

The old style of cement bifocals with their diafiguring and annoying dividing line has boon 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. Nocement to blister; no thin segments to loss off.

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

The Californian Legislation. It has been argued that as Japan is still withholding the right of land-ownership from" aliens, she has no claim to demand the right in other countries for" ber nationals, The withdrawal' of a right on short notice under provisions with leave no recourse is a different thing, however, from the withholding of a right, and, moreover, it would obviously be unfair that Japan should be asked to grant all American citizens the right of land-ownership without receiving a similar right in return for her nationals. Under present circumstances the Federal Govern- | ment is not in a position to grant this right, the power being in the hand of the individual, States, who are not' likely to hand over their privilege to the Central Government. The other, alternative is for Japan to enter into arrangement with the individual States, but this is an impossibility, as they have no power to form agreements with foreign Powers. It is doubtful even whether in granting rights of land-ownership to nationals of countries which give the same right to Japanese, Japan could legally make any distinction bet- ween the citizens of the different States in the American Union. The position of Japan is thus & very difficult one, and much sym. pathy must be expressed for her nationals in Californis, who are likely to prove the victims of an acote attack of racial prejudice.

The Present Situation at Peking. A section of the better informed people of Kwangtung have just forwarded a strong protest sad an equally strong.spreal to the re-

them of the danger that lurks in the recent dilatory movements, and urging them to sink their... personal preferences and work together for the commonweal. : ...The appeal is strictly along consitational lines, and care- fally hides any suspicion that there is underland dealing any. where, except amongst the leadere of the different cabals, who are waiting for bribes before they are willing to show their hande. Mean- while, the danger is said to be im mirent. The usual literary re- ferences are made. “The ritua= tion of China to-day is like a nest Tel. 634 over-turned, and the eggs Bro falling amongst stone."

The calamity is banging over us as closely as are the eyelashes to the eyebrows." It is likely that there is a dash of the alarmist in this

But, after all, it is certain that these who have jointly addressed an appeal to all the Powers that are of force in the country, must know something of what is going on, and they would not thus reveal the weakness and corrupt. ibility of the repesentatives of the people and of the unrest that is said to be surging throughout the Eighteen Provinces, were there not some substantial basis in fact AND THE BEST WORK GUARANTEED on which to ground the appeal.

A Suggestion, We have known the "speeches" at a wedding reception to be read from carefully prepared notes. Such is the state of public speak ing in this colony that the short- hand writer need scarcely sharpen his pencil. It would be an excellent thing if the young of the colony would cultivate diligently the art of public speaking. It would develop independence of thought and lucidity of utterance. One of the best services our. senior, educational institutions could render is to encourage and instruct the boys in the expres. sion of their ideas in public. The boys might then become citizens capable of taking an retive and intelligent part in the busines and social life of the community instead of being humdrum dul--- Jarda ready to any "aye every time the chairman, who reads his

peech, ask them to do so
