} the new Kryptok invisible bifocal Lens. -

The old style of cement bifocals with their diefiguring and annoying dividing line has been supplanted by a new tens 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. Ji.

CONS.

← Railways to China.

China now posesse about 6,000 miles of railway, with about 2,000 miles more actually under construction. Europe is said to have a mile of railway for every 2,400 inhabitants China has perhaps, now about a mile for every 70,000 of her inhabitants. . . Since the Revolution, Dr. Fun Yat-ren has put forward க grandiose scheme for the con- straction of 75,000 miles of rail- way in ten years at an estimated outlay of about £600,000,000 stor Jing, and he has the authority of a Mandate issued by the President to draft plane for this railway system, and to submit them to foreign financiera with a view to raising the necessary capital, finally submitting the results to the Government for its approval. Moreover, he was authorised to. form and organise a "Central, Railway Corporation" to carry out the work entrusted to him, | and was granted $30,000 a monthTM to defray the expenses, connected with the preparation of his ta schemes and the organisation of |the Corporation, Presumably this

sum has been paid eich month. since the issue of the Mandate, but the world has not been start-:= led as yet by any announcement indicating that progress has been made with the scheme, and we fear. that no such announcement need be expected for a long time to come, unless the task of pro- paring the scheme is placed in. more-practical and more compet- ent hands.

This is due to the A MODERN HOTEL WITH EVERY COMFORT. low temperature maintained during the earlier opera- tions, resulting in the retention of carbonates, &c. that give the effervescent "creaminess?? |characteristic of good Lager Beers.
