size.

fice, or eye testing room. Here every
thing is Inky black, wall draperies and
ceilings. Thiß Is so arranged as to
reel the eye and make the figures used
In testing eyes show up better. His of

study of the eye, Its troubles and the
beßt way to remedy them and has been

optic organ. He is in every way qual
ified to receive the patronage which
he will doubtless command.

''ll# Hi- I'lgto'**' n. pr n* pally
the negro wcuien—who went to and
from the camp that caused me all my
trouble. These local negroes get a cou
ple of drinks of had liquor aboard and
the ruw and rumpus they kirk up was
disgusting. They wanted to show off lo
front of th« soldiers and thought that
the lie st wav to do so was to Jaw at ev
ery while perron they saw.
"These people were never this way
before the negro soldiers came. They
had the swell head more than the sol
diers had 1 am free I* say that the
intelligent negro per pic and th* eelf
reurcctlng negro people never cause
uoftile. Nor do the old-time negroes.
There are no better behaved people
than the before-thc-war negro. It ia
the yunog generation- -and the ignor
ant among .them-—that are sassy and
mean.”
