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

The old style 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. Nocement to blister; no thin segments to lose off.

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

In any event it is pretty obvious that Mr. Bowley is "driving at " a higher appreciation of the value of keeping the dust down. How often have we seen the street sweepers, who in this colony have a manner peculiarly their own. send the dust "spinning through. the air on its maleficent mission." and have we not almost daily at.. the tithin hour the unsightly spectacle of a refuse cart standing

of in front

аде of the leading hotels in Queen's Road? There are also different much fre- quented central localities where the contents of dustbins are 'gost tored over the street to undergo s' search for "pickinge," first by miserable wretches of coolies then. by curs and cats. An improve- ment in the methods of strest cleaning at present in vogue would be welcomed, and we are hopeful that Mr. Bowley'a questions are but the preliminary in a campaign. to secure that such will take place.

od has proved a dismal failure.

So far as any danger of "a terriblo civil war" in China has existed up to the present, it has been through the lack of funds to pay the troops and the officers of the civil administration; if there is any immediate prospect of "a terrible civil war," it seems to us it can' only be created by an ill-informed pablio opinion which the irres- ponsible Dr. Ban is assisting to promote.
