Many parentB are culpably negligent of their children's eyes, early attention to whloh would very often obviate life long annoyances and possibly Injury to physical health. If a child of yours complains that he. can'not see clearly, that he has dull pains In the region of the eyes, or that he Is subject to headaches; or If he - leers, looks at objects aBkance dr with partly closed eyes, he Is suffering from some defect of vision, and It Is your parental duty to at once consult an oculist, lest your negligence or Indif ference may result In permanent In jury. Always have your children’s eyes examined before sending them to school. The examination of children’s eyes calls for special tact, as Veil ns pro fessional skill. If they do not need glasses, I will tell you so. See Dr.Cl.Hutchason i Albany's Leading Optician, Davls-Bx- chango Bank Building.

H. CARROLL, Manager. Editor Herald: It Is pretty generally known that I have recently been a patient In the great Roper Hospital at Charleston, S. C„ and It occurs to me that as Al bany Is making tin effort to secure one of these most'benign institutions, It would not be out of place for me to make, tonight, at the prayer-meeting of the Baptist church, what I shalll call “a hospital talk,” based upon my fresh experience and observations in hospital work. The public Is cordially Invited, as It Is my desire to create “hospital sentiment." Services begin promptly at 7:8V), lastlpg not longer than one hour. .Please say this for me. Very sincerely yours, WM. L. RICHARDS, Pastor Baptist Church. P. S. Let no one be uneasy; the "talk" will be gospeF-Chrlst’s gospel —through and through. It was Jesus that established the first hospital. By the way,' all doctors, druggists— their patients and patrons, are most especially Invited to be present. That Invitation' covers the town—the whole town. For we are all doctors and druggists and patients and patrons’. W. L. R.

Mercury Is a body devoid, practical ly U not absolutely, of air, of water and of vegetation. Consequently it Is incapable of supporting any of those higher organisms which we know as living beings. Its surface Is a vast desert It is rough rather than smooth. Whether this roughness be’ dne to mountains proper or to craters we are too far away from It to be able yet to say. The latter Is the more probable.. Over the greater part of Its surface change either diurnal or sea sonal la unknown. Three-eighth* of Its surface Is steeped in perpetual glare, three-eighths shrouded In perpetual gloom, while the remaining quarter slowly turns between the two. The planet Itself, as a world, Is dead. Interesting as Mercury thus proves to be, the Interest as regards tbe plan et Itself Is of a rather corpselike char acter. Less deterrent perhaps Is the Interest It possesses ’as a part of tbe life history of the solar system, for tidal friction, the closing act la the cosmic drama, has brought It where It Is. The machine has run down. Whether It ever supported life upon Its surface or not, the power to do so has now fofever passed away. Like Venus and for like cause, It is now a dead world. And It was the first thus to reach the end of Its evolutionary ca reer, earlier to do so then Venus, In asmuch as tidal action waB very much greater upon It than on Venus and con sequently produced Its - effect more quickly. Mercury has long been d^ad. How long, measured by centuries, we cannot say, but practically for a very long time. VenuB must have become so comparatively recently. Both, how ever, now have finished their course and have la a most literal sense enter ed Into their rest. A Statement from Mr. Crlne. Referring to the report In yester day’s Herald of the altercation be tween Messrs. E. R. Jones and L. J. Crlne, Mr. Crlne desires us to state that tbe reporter or his Informant was mistaken In the statement that lie (Mr. Crlne) advanced on Jones with a drawn knife. While admit ting that he did draw his pocket- knife, Mr. Crlne says that he (did not do so until Mr. Jones threatened to "maul" him and commenced to draw a pistol on him.

Ndt to Know Thin bland to Hot to Know Greece, There an/ some lands which have al ways laid a spell upon the mind, upon the Imagination, upon .the heart. Greece, abqve all other countries, has entranced the mind. The Imagination has ever loved the east—Egypt, tbe Indies, for gotten Asia, the almost as mysterious Asia of toddy. For most of us the home land Is the country of the heart; for many, It may be, It Is Palestine, where was lighted the fire at which tbe hearts of Incalculable millions are still warmed. Others are content to say with Emerson In the fine essay on “Heroism,” "That country Is the fairest which Is Inhabited by the noblest minds." But, above all other lands, there Is one which has at once Impress ed the mind, the imagination and the heart of western peoples. When a fa mous poet declared that on his heart would be found engraved the word Italy the words voiced the emotion of a multitude In every country of Eu rope and In the great northern con tinent oversea.. To see Sicily, tile old “Garden of the Sun,” as the poets have loved to call It, Is not to see Italy, though there may be a measure of truth In Goethe’s remark that uot to know Blclly Is not to know Italy. In a sense one might more tru ly say of Sicily that not to know It Is not to know Greece. In another sense, however, we have In this most beau tiful of islands the Intensification of Italy. Whatever Is most Italian Is in evidence here, though It Is Italian of the south and not of the north. What a gulf divides them Is known only to those familiar with the whole penin sula.—William Sharp In Century. “Ball*" Not Irish. Those who are not Irishmen some times trespass on Irish property. A French cure, preaching about sudden death, said, “JQius It Is with us—we go to bed well andiget up stone deadl’’- An old French lawyer writing of an estate he bad Joist bought added, “There Is a chapel upon It In which my wife and 1. wish to be burled, If God spares our lives." A merchant who died suddenly left In his bureau a. letter to one of bis cor respondents which he had not sealed. His clerk, seeing It necessary to send the letter, wrote at .the bottom, “Since writing the above I have died.” A Sentiment and an Autograph. A certain young lady, so the story runs, wrote. to F. Marlon Crawford, the novelist, requesting that he send her a bit of sentiment and bis auto graph. The reply was: Dear Mill A.—When you request a fa vor that t* of Interest only to yourself, please Inclose a two cent stamp. There’s your sentiment, and here’s your auto graph. F.

The diseases which claim tbe most victims among physicians relatively to all males are goat and diabetes, and there Is a high relative mortality from diseases of the nervoos system, circula tory system and. kidneys, says the Sci entific American. From the nature of bis habits tbe pbyBldan Is not subject to accidents, and, though he Is brought. Into contact With Infection to. a greater extent than other men, his preventive meane are successful and his mortality from In fection. Is very low. Freedom from pro longed muscular strains and high blood tension apparently saves him from arteriosclerosis, but suicide claims mnny and so do tbe drug habits ac quired by tbe nervously exhausted. It bas been said that three-fourths of French morphine users are physicians. The cause of the physician’s early death Is evidently the excessive uerv- ous expenditure, Insufficient rest and defective nutrition, Inseparable from bis calling, with Its broken and restrict ed sleep, Irregular hours of work, rest and meals and worry when lives de pend upon his Judgment and the lack of a day of complete relaxation In each week. The physician who sees his pa tients every day in the week, month after month, and cannot learn to forget them when he goes home merely burns tbe candle at both ends. He violates the law observed by every animal, that there shall be short periods of moder ate exertion Interrupted by longer peri ods of rest when repairs are made. It is not too much work as a rale,’ but scattered work, which prevents rest. A severe - cofd that may develop Into pneumonia over night, can be cured quickly by taking Foley’s Honey and Tar. It will cure the most obstinate racking cough and strengthen your lungs. The genuine Is In a yellow package. Hilsman-Sale Drug Co. SAVED BY COURAGE. Ah Exciting Adventure With a Maori Chieftain. Mr. Becke, the author of "Notes From My South Sea Log,” tells of his tutor, who seemed to him the most heroic man In the world because he had been through the first Maori- war and because of an adventure which there befell him, and which ts given as follows: Poor Guy—such was the tutor’s name —was a lieutenant, and he and two companies were captured by the Maoris. They were taken Inside the Stockade, and the chief, tnklug up oue of the captured seamen's cutlasses, felt Its edge and then fixed his keen eyes on the young officer’s face. “I shall not harm these two men of yours,” he said slowly. "They shall go safely back to your lines If"— He paused, and a grim smile distorted bis tattooed face. “If what?" asked Guy calmly. “If you will stretch out your right hand so that I may ent It off at tbe wrist swiftly, no further harm shall come to you, and you, too, shall go free.” “Will you keep your word?” “Aye. I, Te Atua Wera, am no liar." Guy nodded, quietly took off his coat and held out bis left band. “Btrlke,” he said. The chief again smiled. “Thou art as cunning as thou art brave. I said the right hand.” Guy let fall his left and extended his right arm. Te Atua Wera stepped back a pace, raised the cutlass—and struck the point of it Into the ground. Then he bent forward and gravely nibbed noses with Guy. “Go,” he said, "but come back no more.” 8o Guy and the two sailors were allowed to return to Despard’s lines unharmed. - Given Up to Die. B. Spelgel, 1204 N. Virginia St., Ev ansville, Ind., writes: “For over five years I was troubled with kidney and bladder affections which caused me much pain and worry. J lost flesh and was all run 1 down, and a year ago had to abandon work entirely. I had three of the best physicians, who did me no good, and I was practically given up to die. Foley’s Kidney Cure was rec ommended and the first bottle gave me great relief, and after taking the second bottle I was entirely cured.” Why not let It help you? Hilsman- Sale Drug Co.

About eighteen months ago I had grown so much worse that f could not digest a crust of corn bread and could not retain .anything on my stomach. My heart would beat so fast I could not sleep, It f times I would almost draw double with pain in the pit of my stomach. I lost twenty-five pounds; in fact, I made up my mind that I could not live but a short time, when a friend of mine recommended Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. I consented to try it to please him and I was better in one day. I now weigh more than 1 ever did in my lifei and am in better health than for many years. Kodol did it. I keep a bottle constantly, j and write this hoping that humanity will be benefited. Yours very truly, Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the only digestant or combination off digestants that will digest all classes of food.
