A fellow as serted that he would be content to be an invalid if he had all the moit ev he wanted. He places a low es timate on the greatest of all bless ing health.

Putting asideall question of right and wrong, such a method of doing business would never pay me. I am permanently es tablished in Bloomsburg. I am not here to-day and away to-morrow. The building up of an established practice is of more importance to me than the few extra sales I might make by dishonest practices. I have on my record the names of a number of people whose eyes I have tested and not sold them glasses. These people never paid me a cent for the information. They ac cepted my invitation to have their eyes examined and I was more than pleased to do it for them. I wish every person in this County would do the same thing. I want everyone to feel free to consult me about their eyes. I will make a careful examination and tell you just what you ought to do. If you don't need glasses I will tell you.
