The Great West Optical Mnnu- f.ictiu-ing and Supply Co., whose advertisement appears elsewhere in this issiie^ ' * Mr. Jordan is an eye specialist and optician of unquestionable skill.

The Dr. has, in his extensive, practice, met with all the peculiar diseases little nnd great, pertaining to the eyesight and is a thoroughly competent man in all respects. The company, which has its headquarters in Vancouver and also branches in AVinnipeg and the east, is .exceedingly fortunate in securing the services of so eminent a specialist ns president of the company. As Dr. Jordan states the eye is the chief of all our human' senses and the proper care of tluit organ should be our one and chief aim. The.present ill success in much of school work is .partly due to defective eyesight; 75 per cent of the pupils who enter the primary schools -with normal sight are when finishing college seriously in need of eye treatment. Weak nnd defuoiive eyesight, continues the Dr., are responsible for one half tlie ills of the system .'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD.*> a wJtolQ.

In Vaneouvei they will manufacture nearly all the material used except' of course the Ien-cs. All the grinding and polishing however will be done there: This is another gratifying evidence of the advantages to be derived from the Great West. Among the other members-of the company arc Dr. Ernest Hull, of the Burrurd Sanitarium, and Dr. Townley ns well as numerous prominent physicians on the coast. Mr. Maitland, who i.s working in conjunct ion with Dr. Jordan in introducing the Optical Company through 13. C-gave n very enter-taming and instructive lecture in the .'Young Men's Consei vntivu club rooms on Friday and Saturday last. Mr. Maitland is an able speaker and wilh the numerous janterii slide 'illustrations he used made the. evening both interesting and profitable. In general the speaker said that as our sense of sight was Immeasurably greater in delicacy nnd usefulness than nny of our other senses it was worthy of our utmost cue and attention. He pointed out -the marvellous ability of tho eye\"as a physical organ in that it can so readily detect nnd distinguish color, the intricate delicacy of its mechanism, how it instantaneously accommodates itself to the multitude of tlie vnrious shade's- of light nnd unconsciously contracts and dilates to a perfect focus of any object. As a subject of study it i.s perhaps the most interesting of any line of work, in thnt the knowledge to )ie obtained thereby i.s unlimited. It ever present** iifcw |ind varied avenues of thought to the student of option. Mr. Miiillund gave numerous figures showing the great, cai labilities of the eye niul convinced his hearer's that the organ of sight. Is tuoKt fearfully and wondurfully made. In Its most intricate delicacy nnd its infinite power of expression.

The Vicomte d'Avrieomt was thc j son of a noble ot ancient lineage and an enormously rich citizen's daughter. Like an intelligent fellow, he had appropriated from this mesalliance its best parts, taking from his father his name, character and sentiments, which were those of a man of good 1 blood, and from his mother, who died young, two very handsome dark eyes and one or two solid millions. But, if he made use of his eyes\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDand very good use, for that matter\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDhc had as yet merely the reversion of thc millions. While wailing for his father to leave'them to him, hc lived on his pay of two hundred and sixteen francs a month, without incurring more debts than were becoming. True, to this somewhat meagre sum the Comte d'Avricourt had the good habit of adding a monthly subsidy ot three thousand francs. It is a system which fathers who have sons in the inferior grades of the army would do well to adopt. Raoul was the best-hearted fellow in the world. Worn out with want of sleep, he lay down between the sheets of a marquise whose granddaughters had not the wherewithal to buy meat. Hence he slept badly.

But own that my poor wine cellar has some fine remains.\" It was some time since the remains of the wine cellar of the Marquise liad become thc property of the hotel-keeper Le Goaziou, who had consented to reconvey several samples of it to Moreau for this occasion. At the old lady's words the prorrd Yvonne reddened and bent her head over her plate. She had done, nothing but that since dinner began, not to eat, for she had barely touched what was placed before her. One might have fancied she was regretting her buckwheat, cakes, and possibly one would not have been wrong. \"I am no connoisseur,\" said Jeanne, who thought it more dignified to look the situation squarely in the face, \"but I would swear that this wine has made more than one. journey before arriving here.\" \"That is what makes it so good,\" replied Raoul. \"I have never tasted any which I liked so well. Madame la Marquise, I drink to your health and to the honor you are doing ine at this moment.\" The talk became more lively. Raoul was witty. He would have been more so if lie had looked less steadily in front of him, at Yvonne, that is to say, who was pretty enough to turn- a head more solid than that of a lieutenant of chasseurs. When they rose from the table, poor d'Avricourt. felt so discomfited that it seemed to him Madame de la Meaugon must* have perceived it, blind though she was. But the dear woman was preoccupied with another idea. Atter they had entered the salon she said to her granddaughters: \"Children, it is time for you to go to church. M. d'Avricourt will permit you to leave him alone with me for a quarter. of an hour.\" Raoul bowed and:Mesdemoisellcs de Pordic disappeared. \"My dear Vicomte,\" began the dowager when they were alone, . \"I seldom have a chance to talk with a man who understandsI'.business...-'\". Permit me, then,?to be confidential with you. My son-in-law,' I 'may as well tell you,: understood business -about as well as I would understand how to command a drill.

'Only, no one pays much attention to a poor blind woman away off at the end of the world.

Without -owning it.to you, I was somewhat uneasy about your future. But our good old friend here has reassured me. Perhaps your poor father was not so badly inspired, after all, in the investment of his fortune.\" Once more the young girls raised their large, almost severe eyes, and looked at Raoul. And again hc laid his finger on his lips. During this7 pantomime the blind woman was heard saying: \"Yvonne, let some ons go and tell Madame du Foucet not to expect me this evening, because I have somebody at home. Thegonnec may take out; the horses.\" Dear noble woman, whose hearth, visited by ruin, was now deprived of other guests. You should have heard her broken voice swell iovfullv to say: \"I have somebody at home.\" If anyone had predicted to Raoul the day before that he would pass one of the most charming evenings of his life opposite a blind woman of seventy and two young girls in black merino gowns, he would have shrugged his shoulders. Which proves that one ought to swear to nothing, especially not to love some day a poor littls provincial who deserves it, when one has pretended up to then to love many brilliant Parisienncs who could hardly be said to deserve it.

This one was the fair Yvonne,, the melancholy, ol whom everybody at G said: \"There is one who will die a nun,\" When that old tell-tale, of a clock essayed to strike eleven, Raoul would have liked to. throw it out of the window.

Not only are these laws of the universe perfectly systematic and methodic in their working but although the why of them has and always will baffle human intelligence, the simplicity, of them is in all phases very apparent. It is beyond the power of man to alter these rules and regulations of the Creator, in any degree, and certainly it is wise that it is eo. They are arranged for his comfort, welfare and happiness and set as an example for bim in th* construction of his finite laws. Wherever man ha* obeyed these laws and worked in concert with them be has naturally been abundant- ly successful, when he has failed to obey and work in harmony with them he haa dismally failed. It is said that \"Order is God's first law,\" and undoubtedly it ia true. If the Creator required that, aa hi* flist principle certainly it is also a necessity to mankind, and our advanced civilisation of to-day is tbe result of our infusing into all things, little or great, \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDystem and order. Natural philosphy says a fluid of gaeater density than another will buoy up the fluid of les*er density. In compliance witb thi* w* build a structure by which we force the displace- of water by air and . thus pursue our commerce upon the sea. In this we are systematic in that we follow a rigid principle. We do this because we are forced. When we are not compelled to follow certain laws and thu* obaerve system and order we set up any arbitrary rule sensible or senseless, which happens to suggest iteeli to the fanciful brain.

To return from this little digression and repeat: There is no way to accomplish aught but to start out fearlessly and boldly and with no regard to criticism but in the light of reason and judgment pave the way to a proper system and order. Significant i* it that tbe medical profession, which haa achieved more for mankind than any other. product of the human brain, is taking up the sword and wadingintothe orthography of the English language. A medical journal entitled, \"American Surgery and Gynecology\", ' published in St. Louis, Mo., andraa a periodical representing the very deepest thought and most intricate skill of the age, has started in and it is to be hoped that other leading journals of the day will assist in the. good work and a liberal pruning and alteration will be continued till all this redundancy and contradiction in our present orthography will be done away with entirely and some consistency and order evolved from the chaos. The above mentioned journal has wisely commenced gradually and struck a blow.at the most flagrant incongruities as a starter. It has discarded the idiotic \"ough\" from \"through\" and spells it as it ought to be \"thru\". Also it has cut off the useless, \"ugh\" of \"though\" and loaves it in a rational form \"tho\". Still further has the worthy journal gone and \"talked, walked, worked and inixod,\"are now the' more sensible, Vtalkt, walkt, workt and niixt.\" Emory Lahphear, M. D., Ph. D., L.L.D., the editor of the above mentioned magazine has the following note appearing each month under the name date and terms of subscription of the magazine. \"The spelling found in this magazine i* that voucht for by the most prominent educators of tnis country and is recommended for general adoption.\" And verily may it be so. Now that the ice is once broken, surely many will follow the valiant lead. One cannot look over our alphabet and not find a great deal that is incongruous and should that one be a primary teacher, still more is the inconsistency painfully apparant. Where is the necessity of \"c\" ? It appeal's with two sounds tbat of \"K' and that of \"S\". Thus it is a redundant letter and very confusing. We say to the child that ca-t spells tbe' word cat. The name of the letter \"C\" is on* thing, the -sound - of it is quite different. To be systematic the name of any letter should be a suggestion as to its use. With \"S\" and \"K\", \"C\" is of not the slightest use. Further the letter \"Ot\" is wrongly Dame^.^Eathetshould.=it^be_i.called \"gay\", using the hard sound invariably, then it would not be intermixed with \"j\" as it at present is. \"H\" is another misnomer, \"hay\" should be the name of thi* letter.

Then \"w,\" what a name! \"Dubbleu\" or some such sound. This should be \"way\" in sound, and then it would be consistent with its use. And lastly \"y\" called \"wi.\" Were this called \"ye\" as it should be if any connection is to be found between its name and use, then it would be consistent. The letter \"x\" is amply significant in its sound and yet we will persist in prefixing \"e\" to it in nearly all cases\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD excuse, explain and extract. Why not drop the senseless \"e.\" We smile at the illiterate Englishman changing his \"h's.\" We are just aa foolish when we say \"horse\" and \"hour,\" only we pride ourselves on following our arbitrary law. While all alterations in orthography should be made with careful judgment and reason yet, now that the campaign is opened the most glaring of these offensive silent letters will surely be quickly dispensed with.

D. O. Parker, of Morden, Manitoba, and H. P. Simpson, ot Winnipeg, are guests at the Hume. They are out here prospecting for timber land. They say they expect that there .will be a very large accession to the population of Manitoba and the Territories during the coming year and for several years to come. With the Increase in the number ef people, will come an augmented demand for. lumber for all sorts of purposes. In order to supply that demand, it will be necessary to call on the forests of British Columbia. These'two gentlemen, who are wealthy and enterprising, say that they want to secure some timber limits in this province before the big rush to secure them begins. They intend to do \"this and will make another trip to this section for this purpose later in the year. Tliey say- that the provinces to the east cannot prosper without this province feeling the good effects of that prosperity; nor can British Columbia enjoy good times without the prairie provinces feeling the':-good effects of it. The two sections ure so close together that they must' necessarily trade a great deal with one another.' What we have they have not, and what they bave we are not provided \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD with. Looking ahead a few years they can see that there will be a big demand for lumber in the section in which they reside and are determined to place themselves in.a position to supply some of the demand. When interviewed they stated that they were interested - in real estate in Manitoba and thought, it was the best country in the' world, the same as the people here think that British Columbia holds the palm for all that is great. People who have not been on the prairies know very little about that section. Immigrants are coming in from Easteen Canada, Europe and the United States. Both gentlemen stated that - they had attended a meeting at St. Paul at which was formed) the Canadian Inii- gration Association. * The idea of the association is to induce imigratioa from the United States, lt has been decided by .the association to spei d $00,000 in advertising in the United States. Tbe head office is in St. Paul. The Dominion and Provincial Governments^ the city of Winnipeg, the railway companies and business men in Manitoba and the Northwest Territories are subscribing to the fund. The advertising department is under the charge of Theodore Knappen, who was formerly tha associate editor of the leading St. Paul paper, but he gave up this lucrative position to push the advertising for the association. Messrs. Parker and Simpson report that last year over 100,000 people came into Manitoba and the Territories, of which 50,000 were from the United States. They further state that they expect the influx will be even larger this year.\" So greAt is the demand for land that the. price is advancing and good arable land is now worth from 90 to $7 an acre. This is cheap, they declare, for good wheat land. The growth of Winnipeg has been very rapid, >nd is now putting on metropolitan airs. One sign of this is that a 12-storsy steel building is to be erected by the Union Bank on the corner of Main street and William avenuerwhich^wilUcostbalL.a=raillion. of dollars. Last' year the building permits in Winnipeg were for over $0,000,000 and this year the contemplated improvements will cost $8,000, 000. The Canada Northern and the C.P.R. will spend about $*,000,\"000 this year in improvements at Winnipeg. The C.P.R. is putting in what it is claimed ara the largest terminal yards in th* world at VVinnipeg.'slisor new roundhouses and shops .*nd other buildings. The builders will have all they can attend to this year in Winnipeg. ' From what Messrs. Parker and Simpson have seen of British Columbia they feel satisfied that it is now on the up grade; that the mining, lumbering and business generally will be more assuredly prosperous than it has at any previous time. The people of the prairies are already looking around for places in which to put their surplus capital, and they predicted that many of them will invest in our mining, lumbering and other industries,\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Nelson Daily News.

Kamba Jong, where thc mission Is now encamped, Is Si miles, as the crow flies, due north of the Indian hill-station of Darjoellng, hut, of course, the mountain road by Tongu Is much longer. The present height of the camu above sea-level ls 13,SOO feet, the surrounding country consisting of high mountains. Intersected by deep valleys. From Kamba Jong two roads lead to Lhassu, one due rrorth through Shlgalse, on the brink of tho Tsang-Po, the great river which eventually becomes lire Brahnrnputra. The.distance .by-, this route, says. The London Dally Chronicle, Is ninety miles to Slrlg- atse, and 130 miles further* to Lhassa. Tho southern route by Gy.intse. which it Is proposed to follow, Is thirty miles longer, Gyantse being 1C6 miles from Llrnssa.. But both routes cross the watershed of the Eastern Himalayas, which is.a very-arduous undertaking. Tlie stutement that Colonel Macdonald has ordered Canadian fur coats for his troops shows that he thoroughly appreciates tho.rigor of the climate which he has lo encounter. At tho beginning of November 20 degrees of frost were registered at Kamba Jong, and the winter was then only just setting in. In the expedition of 1SS8 the Thibetan field force found snow lying deep on the slopes in the month of March, and tho small garrison of Gnatong had afterwaras very trying experiences In the dreary winter weather. Tho tableland of Thibet Is covered with snow for several months, and life under canva., is almost impossible during that period. The great danger is from pneumonia, which, Is more'formidable than the muskets of the Thibetan army, these being only muzzle-loaders, and the army Itself an untrained and un- warllke rabble. But the native soldiers of the Indian plains, of which Colonel Macdonald's force will mainly consist, are little accustomed lo extreme cold, earnestness\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDa deadly earnestness. fn this respect the men are quite put to shame. ...

Further, the proceedings were conducted In an extremely business-like manner.
