Doctor Tells How To Strengthen Eyesight 50 per cent In One Week's Time In Many Instances K Free Prescription Von Can Have Filled and lie at Home Philadelphia. Pa. Do you wear ] Classes? Are you a victim of eye strain ; or other eye weaknesses? If so. you ' will be glad to know that according to Dr. Lewis there is real hope for you. Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored through ' the principle of this wonderful free pre scription. One man says, after trying i it: "I wss almost blind; could not see , to read at all. Now X can read every- ' thing without any glasses and my eyes do not water any more. At night they would pain dreadfully; now they feel - 1 fine all the time. It was like a miracle to me." A lady who used it says: "The atmosphere seemed hazy with or with out c.'asses. but after using this pre script t>n for fifteen days everything j seems "tear. I can even read fine print without glasses." It is believed thai thousands who wear glasses can now i discard them in a reasonable time ana multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be . spared the trouble and expense of ever j getting glasses. Eye troubles of many Reasons For Unusual Coal Shortage Three things are responsible for the great shortage of coal. First: The labor situation is hopelessly beyond control of the operators. If the mines are to pro duce the quantity of coal demanded now, they must have at least 10 per cent, more men—and more men cannot be had. Second: The great car shortage. Some mine owners say they are getting only 15 per cent, to 20 per cent, of their actual requirements. That is, when they order 100 cars, the railroad gives them from 15 to 20 cars. Third: Coal Consumers failed to buy coal in the summer months and for that reason the mines were often closed for want of orders. A Shortage of coal is a fact, not a theory. Secure, without delay, enough to last you • throughout the winter—otherwise you may regret it. United Ice & Coal Co.

"McCormick Landslides" Discussed in Editorial In an editorial headed "Those McCor mick Landslides." the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin says: "Chairman Vance McCormick, of the Democratic national committee, continues in active business as a cock sure prophet. His latest exhibit is a •landslide' in which it will be doubtful whether there will be any States left to the Republicans. "It is just two years ago that the chairman, as a candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, together with his equally ardent Democratic colleague. Mr. A. Mitchell Palmer, as a candidate for United States senator, was. in the same ecstatic frame of mind over the magnificent rainbow outlook of the Democratic party in this State. On that occasion, a few days in ad vance of the election, the chairman of the Democratic State committee made the following forecast: " 'McCormick will come to the 1 Philadelphia county line with 115,000 | majority. Penrose will be third in the t senatorial race. Never has the De mocracy been more united, more hope ! ful and more confident than it is to ; day. Election predictions are seldom ittken seriously. T ask the voters of jthe State to cut this out and compare jit with the returns.' "Moreover. Mr. McCormick an i nounced at that time that he was look ing forward to what would be his cubernatoiial responsibility in meeting the Legislature two months afterward, while Mr. Palmer, In the exuberance of his confidence and joy at the sight l |of the superb rainbow, assured the I public that 'Penrose will be licked as ! sure as the sun shines.' "All this. too. was on the eve of an (election in which Penrose had !S0 000 ! plurality and In which Vance McCor mick. beaten by 130.000 plurality. lot his wfrd, his city, his county and his State."
