E. Montgomery to de- liver a series of lectures and conduct a demonstration and free Optical Clinic of his wonderful new system of sight testing and ocular di-~ agnosis known as the "'look- ing into the eye' method. My reason for bringing this Specialist to Kingston is two fold. I have wished for some time to obtain a perfect! system oi gu testing, and after long investigation I have decided that the "Shadow Test" as practice® and taught by Mr. Montgomery is the best by all odds to-day. I wish to perfect sayself in this new and scientific system of measuring the inside refraction of the eye, and further than this I wish to give the Public an opportunity to consult free of charge with a Specialist to whom all Opticians are indebted by reason of his marvelous work to instruct and elevate the Profession, This campaign of Optical Education and Demonstration will be- Ein on MONDAY, APRIL 6th, And continue for a limited time in my remodelled optical room. Mr. Montgomery will have charge of all optical examigations during his stay with me, and I most cordialy and earn- estly invite all eye sight sufferers from near and far to come and learn the true condition of their eyes. Each day free sight testing sessions will be held from 9 to 12, 1.30 to 6 and evenings from 7 to 9. 1 am sparing no expense or pains to : make this demonstration worthy of the patronage of the most critical. Those who visit my optical room during these sessions will be surprised at the simplicity of the system without machines or drops or tire- some trying on the glasses, and an accuracy never before attained. I have every reason to be lieve that the public will co-operate with me in making this a grand success. My. Mont. gomery's services will be free during the hours I have stated above. Those requiring glasses pay for material only. My invitation is broad. Come every eye sight sufferer. Come every headache sufferer. Parents bring your Children. Doctors bring your patients, all will be cordially received and well repaid. Appointments are now being booked. Yours to Serve. DR. A. P.

States attorney-gen- eral that all but' "straight" whiskey should be labelled "compound" and Canadian Club is "stralght" because it contains a small eoloring + and be- cause considerable percentage 'of fusie oil has been wemoved from it. No question is railed as to the purity of the liquor, the suit arising out of the vast struggle going on between the straight whiskey makers on the one band and the rectiliers on the other. Detroit, uve of ------------ GRANT NO FAVORS. -- Liberal Leader Again Takes Stand on Power. ' Toronto, April 4. of the revenueS of the province by the government for the benefit of a par ticular municipality was taken excep- tion to in the legislature, yesterday afternoon, by Hon. A. i. McKav. The question arose in eonnection with the second reading of the Dog Lake de- velopment bill. The government de- sires under this measure to expend $20,000 for the erection of a dam by means of which the of the | lake will be stored for pur- poses Mr. McKay pointed out that this was practically for the benefit of Port Arthur alone. As on previous occa- sions, he claimed that any works de signed for the benefit of particular municipalities should he paid for by | the beneficiaries, avd not by the pro- { vince, Hon. Adam Beck said that there were three power companies who would benefit by the scheme. and the government would derive revenue from them by way of rentals : Mr. McKav again pointed out that the proposal violated an important | principle, and inquired as to whether the government, baving created the means by which the companies could develop power, would control the rates charged to consumers. To this question, however, he received no re plv. Premier water power Whitney moved that the house should go into committee to oncider the redistribution bill He [outlined the government's position, and again stated that the measure | was not of a more general character | because it was found that the figures | of the last could not be re \ | garded as reliable, Toronto, he again | stated, would have eight members. | two for each of the present electoral | divisions, so that at next election To: | ronto electors will have the privilege | of casting two ballots | Hon.
