We Examine Eyes Free, but we do
not promise impossibilities. We practice good work and abhor bombast. We have glasses for all kinds of weak and diseased eyes, but do not sell medicat¬ ed glasses. Do you believe there is such a thing as glasses charged with medicinal virtue? If you do, then your faith must be e.xcecdingly great.
Our Prices vary according to quality of lenses and frames. Crystal lenses are costly and cannot be pur¬ chased at prices (luoted by unscrupu¬ lous and unreliable dealers. We strive to merit business by continuing to sen'c the people at one place. Pause and reflrct, and you will not bc delud¬ ed by deceptive advertisements. Respectfully,

The best wealth of a city or town is to lie found in its energetic and ent«rprisiiig men, tliose who are willing to act and labor unttjasingly, not for ttieir own in¬ dividual welfai-i', but for the genenil good. These are ones who are to be val¬ ued, as they create prosperity antl evoke success un<ler the most discourag¬ ing circumstances. They are not always louiiting their own jirivate gsiins and losses.

lie Uives Ilia Views on  tho Great Struggle Between Hastings and Ouay.
John S. Buchanan, of Ambler, is out in a letter in the Norristowu Times, set¬ ting forth his ideas in the present fac¬ tional struggle in the Republican party. He says:
Mr. S. Powell Childs in his letter in the Times yesterday aptly said that abont the time Senator t^aay was con¬ tending for the higher protective duties than were provided for in the Wilson bill, B. F. Gilkeson was at home contend¬ ing for the election of a Democrat over a Republican, notwithstanding he was at the time chairman of the Republican state committee. That one act of Mr. Gilkeeon was a political sin for which he has never atoned, and to re-elect him chairman with that charge standing against him,would be unbecoming to any political party and might encourage him to other acts of treachery. No such sin was ever laid  at the door of  Senator

Electricity on the Farm.
Electricity is relieving city horses of drudgery, and the agricultural journals are looking forward to the time when electric feed wires will reach out to the farms to do the pumping, threshing, churning, chojiping, lighting, and event¬ ually the plowing and hoeuig. Already au electric plow has been tested iu (ier¬ many and is found to do the work well, thougli not quite so cheaply, in this lirst e.\i)eriment, as a imm antl horses. The farmer in the course of time will probably have the choice of getting iiis electric jwwer from' central sUitions, neighboring atreams or wind mills. When this hapjiens it is likely that there will be a return drift of population from the cities to the country.
Women Slionld be ^<atisfled.
Women in America should be better satisfied with their condition, eays a native Persian, who lectured in Carnegie music hall, Pittsbarg, last Sunday night. In bis country the men enjoy a jilurality of wives who are compelled to work in the fields to earn their own living and soiHething for their liege lords. Amori¬ can women, he said, do not appreciate how much they are blessed. Instead of sickles most of them use pianos, and the two things illustrate pretty well all the way through the dilference m the liyes of women in America and in Persia.
have been, he is a Republican who stands for Repablicanism in all that the term im¬ plies, and that is the kind of a man we want for state chairman.
Montgomery coanty naturally prefers Mr, tiuay as against Mr. Gilkeson for another reason. Mr, Gilkeson, had he Btood alone against Mr. Quay, could have made not the slightest show of a contest, and it is not going too far to say that had he not been labeled "Adninistraiion," he would not have received the solid support of any single county in the state, except jKissibly that of Bucks county.
Realizing his weakness as an individ¬ ual, Mr. Gilkeson poses as the fragrant choice of the administration, allied with which are three men whose sole object in defeating Mr. Uuay is to get possesion of the spoils, which, when the affaire of the party are honestly and projierly ad¬ ministered, belong to no individual or combination. It is no secret that Phila¬ delphia and Pittsburg are the hot-beds of wlitical corruption. David Martiu and Oharles Porter are the source whence this corruption fiows in Philadelphia, and Christopher Magee juggles with the welfare of Pittsburg as thoufih he had a first mortgage on the Smoky city. The election of Mr. Gilkeson, whom this dan¬ gerous combine is spending thousands ujKin thousands of dollars to elect, would mean the jiolitical supremacy of Martin, Porter and Magee. This much the ad¬ ministration's most ardent admirers would not attempt to deny. Would the combine use the prestige that wonld fall to it with the election of Mr. Gilkeson ? fhey would. There is no precedent on which to pin a hope that they would not. They would dominate the Republican politics of the entire state just as Martin and Porter control the Philadelphia city government. Tbe influence of these two men would be feit in many of the elec¬ tion districts of Montgomery county, and politics here would soon become such a stencil iu the nostrils of the bet¬ ter element of the Republican party that mnch of it would droop from pure nau¬ sea.
Then, too, with Philadelphia and Pitts¬ burg lobbyists as the head of this great Republican party, the country districts would be wholly at the mercy of the monopolists of tho two cities. There would be no boubt of the passage of an apportionment bill then, but how would the coantry fare? The country would get just as much representation as the city combine chose to give it." No more. The cities would legislate for the whole state—for the hundreds of thousands of farmers and mechanics on one side, and for the cities and monojiolies on the other.
Even now, in advance of the conven¬ tion, the combine has been diligently at work in Montgomery county through one of its trio. David Martin came up from Philadelphia last week to set up Gilkeson delegates in Moreland town¬ ship, just as though Moreland Republi¬ cans could not manage their p<irty affairs themselves. His interference was promptly resented and the Republicans of that township, having suffered the indignity of being dictated to by a non¬ resident and lobbyist, will do their part cnSatarday evening to wards putt ingup ou the combine's impertinence the county's mark of disapproval.
Gilkeeon is the choice of the combine for state chairman. Tbat alone should be sufficient to defeat him. Senator Qiay has incurred the everlasting enmity of Martin, Porter and Magee, and that should be suflicient to elect him. The defeat of Gilkeson ft r state chairman and the election of Governor Hastings as chairman of the convention, will be a rebuke to corrupt jwHticsand an indorse¬ ment of the official acts of the governor.

E.\lract of a Pa|>er Read by Col. Henry U. I'axson at the Mid-suinint.-p .tiretini; of the Uucks   Couuly   Uistorital Society.
Many of the readers of the Q.xin.Tn: are more or less familiar with the story of the finding of the hermit, Albert Large, in Buckingham mountain, Bucka county. In a paper read at the recent historical meeting, Henry D. Paxson gives the fol¬ lowing pai ticulars concerning the finding of the famous hermit.
For some years after the incident jutl related Large was neither seen nor heard of until there came on Fridav morning, April 9, IS.jS, the sUrtling'a-inouuce- ment of hig discovery at the Wolf rocks, the facts of which, from well authenti¬ cated sourcep, are as follows: Un tBe morning of tuat day ss William Ken¬ nard, a well-known colored man of this township, was passing along the foot of the Wolf rocks, he observed smoke is¬ suing from the rocks and heard a strange noi«e like the rattling of tinware, or, to use his own words, "like the dragging of a kettle by a chain," he bectone aiurmed aud rail to another part of the mountain to obtain thecompaiiy of another culured man, .Moses Allen, to go back with him and make some explorations. The two men armed with a crowbar went back to the part ofthe rocks from which the strange sound emanated, and afler making considerable explorations were about to abandon ' >? ei'"- 'ise, when it occurred to tbem luett, .iiHiiing a noise would bring the stranger to sight. They commenced boriig the rock with a crow¬ bar which i 111 the effect of bringing a voice from some hiding jilace which asked, "Who is it, and what do yon want?" They proceeded to the cleft in the rock, ami after diligent search suc¬ ceeded in tiuding an entrance to a room or cavern in which was a human being. Upon being asked to come out he refused to do so and denied the obtruders admit¬ tance, threatening to "put balls through them both" if tLey attempted to enter. There had been so many strange runiora concerning the Wolf rocks and their en¬ vironments ; their possible occiijiancy by a band of counterfeiters and outlaws; the story of the little girls who were gathering whortleberries or chestnuts uear the rocks, and ran home alarmed, stating to their parents they had seen a man at the Wolf rocks with a beard a yard long; another, that tbe human voice had frequently been heard there on moonlight nigbt8,pouting fourth a stream of wild and romantic melody, when at the same time no person could be discov¬ ered from which it could jwssibly have emanated. From these and other rumors the two men thought it unsafe to proceed further w ithout reinforcements, and they accordingly secured the services of sev¬ eral stalwart men from the limestone ijuariies of the late Aaron Ely. The large party, plentifully armed with crow¬ bars, churn-augers and other quarry- men'a tools, returned to the rocks and began their research. The sounding of heavy iron bars upon the rock roof of the cavern, with a huge tire at its en¬ trance, and thu loud voices of the quarry- men calling upon the occupant to come out,comie!led him to yield, and he dis¬ placed the large stone that formed the door of his abode and reluctantly came forth. The exploring party were dumb¬ founded to find him to be the uiiseing .Albert Large. In ajipearance at that time he is described as a man about the average size with rather round "or droop¬ ing shoulders, over which fell long gray hair in profusion. His beard extended al¬ most to his waist, and with his ancient and tattered clothing aud general un¬ kempt apjiearance.he presented a picture of a veritable wild man. The exploring party having made a f.ivorable impression on him by proinises that no injury should be done him, he at length became cora- |)Osed and gave them some accounta of his history and mode of living and in¬ vited thetn to inspect his den. The cave was located about midway of the "Big Wolf Rocks," and a short distance helow what is termed the "Wolf Hole," a place that bag beea observed by all who liave ever paid this wild spot a visit. The en¬ trance was from the north side and could only be efl'etted by going on all lours. Tbe first place they entered was his kitchen or culinary department. In it were found a rude tire-place, some pipe to carry off the smoke, several buckets, a powder keg with a leather strap for a handle, several tin pans, an iron pot for boiling his food and a number of minor cooking utensils. The next ajiartment was his sleeping room, which was sepa¬ rated from the kitchen by a rough mortar wall of hisown construction. This room was not high enough for a man to walk erect, but wben once ensconced therein, its occupant was pretty co/.y ami comfoitable. It contained a prelty good mattress which served as hia bed, an old stool and a few other articles that made up his chamber suit. This room was so surrounded by board work and mortar tbat the penetration of dampness was impossible. Over the entrance leading to the cave was a large fiat stone which he rolled away at pleas¬ ure wben he wanted to go out and which was carefully replaced wheu he returned and wished to enter hia sanctum. Alto¬ gether his cave was a place of some com¬ forts, and to a mau who wished to be secluded from the world was capable of being a resort of much happiness and pleasure.
Iv«rge claimed he purchased his to¬ bacco and some provisions at the village stores aeveral miles distant. This is probably true, but it was thought at that time that the balance of bis provisions, such as apples, jiotatoes, turkeys, chick¬ ens, milk and beef from the smoke house, were never jiaid for. He stated that one hard winter he was shut in his cayeforsis weeks, and that with the snow of an unknown depth above his cave and jrovisions and tobacco run¬ ning low, the situation was anything but cheering.
During the summer season jiarties came to the rocks almost weekly and kej,t him pretty well posted as to the news in the valley. While he was in their very midst, as it were, and could hear all that was said, his presence was unknown to them. The natural arm chair and sofa of stone, objects of rare curiousily, are close by his cave, and he heard much in the way of "billing aud cooing" there happening. The "Wolf Hole," that dark recess, was visited by another class iu nowise allied to those just alluded to, and while Large is not known to have disclosed the robberie^' aud incendiaries there jilotted, yet sev¬ eral parties of doubtful reputation found it convenient to move from tho neigh¬ borhood shortly after his diecovery.
At the time of his discovery consider¬ able speculation existed in the public mind as to the length of time he hsd oc¬ cupied thia Btqueetered and secluded spot. To his captors, Large claimed a residence of forty years but in this he must have been mistaken. The best and most reliable authorities in the valley at that time agreed that his hermit life was not over twenty years; perhaps about eighteen years, from the time he first entered the cave until his discovery in 1858.
The news ofthe discovery of tho long lott Albert Large and his cave spread like a forest fire and the public curiosity was aroused by the circumatances so novel and mysterious. That a man had been living summer and winter, for so many years in a cavern of a rock, in sight of the heart of the valley, was too much for the credulity of the' neighbor¬ hood. The ^funday following his dis¬ covery all avenues leading to tlie miiiin- tain were lined with vehicles heavily freighted with humanity all bent on reviewing the great diecovery. They came from Doylestown, New Hojie, Lambertville, Fleniington, aud iu short the -shole region of country from Tini¬ cum to Newtown. For many weeks thc excitement was unabated and the Wolf Rocks and Hermit's Cave were the piin¬ cipal theme uppermost at inns and stores. Every article found in his cave was thoroughly insptcted, and it was not long before everything there, even to the board lining and mortar wall, were carrieti away aa relicw by curious fieople.
Accounts of his finding wore jmbiish- ed far and wide at the time, and resi¬ dents ofour county when traveling in the far wcEtern states have freijaently been asked about the liackinghfim hermit.   *«»*¦»*¦* Snch, my hearers, are Ihe stories, both authentic and apocryphal, of Albert Large the hermit, as I havo gleaned thera. -After hia discovery he lingered about the mountain but a short time, and on yonder ro«.ky jiromoulory he ia eaid to have taken iiiij farewell  view  of
the beauty woven valley, aod liade a eileat but mournful adieu to those wierd and romantic rocks, endeared to him as a liome through all the changing seasooa of those many years of his life in soli¬ tude.
From thence forth all traces of him and bis late history bave been loet. It was thought by some that he might have gone to another cave or hiding place somewhere along the banks of the .Schuylkill river, but there ia nothing to warrant such belief.
It is now over thirty-seven years since his departure and if living he would lie ninety years of age. It is moet likely that long ago he paid the debt of nature, aa his habits aud mode of life were not calculated to lead l^yond "tbe days of our yeara" as alloted by Ihe Psalmist. Instances of life like this are very rare, and if all were linown of him, an interesting volume wonld D« the meditations aud reveries of Albert I..arge, the hermit of the Wolf Rocks.

The woman with a bank account, even though a modest one, has a feeling of se¬ curity and indejiendence very pleasant to exjierieuce, and if this money results from her own indastry and self-denial, ita value is still greater. Every girl siiould begin such an accouut as soon as possible. If she has a regular allowance or is earning money, she should save a certain amount of it each week or mouth. If dependent on the family purse she may still perhaps deny herself some¬ thing and set tlie sum away fur a time of greater aem^. #he thrifty iubita thos formed are a fortune in themselves, wbile. the money may bring great lielp or pleas¬ ure in the fututre. For the worker it may bring the chance to qualify herself fur a better position; to the lover of travel, perhajis a pleasant trip that will broaden her views of life and give her pleasant memories, cr it may be pnt to the higher use of helping some oue is need.
Nolhing in the world for inexpensive- ness aud utility, equals fine manuers— manners kinds, courteous, well-bred. They make a place for a man at ouce, no matter what his purse or hia garb. There is a pretty story told of a lady in Roches¬ ter, who, when she was asked by her husband of whom she liought such fine vegetables, that were brought to her door by the man who raised them. Her reply was that she did not know his name, but that he was the finest gentle¬ man she had met in that city. The "fiue- ett gentleman" was Myrou Holly, who after turning farmer did not think it incumbent ujion him to jiart with his good breeding, and although a very su- jerior man iu mauy ways, his fame has leen as much perpetuated by hia fine manners as by his jiotsession of a noble mind. Good manuers meau at bottom a good heart, but they mean much more, and some trivial things are in them wrought—to lift the hat in salutation, to stand up when a lady or an elderly jier¬ son enters a room, to eat noiselessly, to masticate food with cloeed mouth, to not use tobacco, lo not be profane, lo avoid saying unpleasant things when not re¬ quired to do so, lo be ready to help the needy, to have the hair projierly cut, the finger naila clean.—Farm Journal.

How a Monkey Started un Oil Well.
The Philadelphia Record relates that the household of Dr. .Seiple, who owns a pretty little farm at Centre f-'quare, .Montgomery county, was greatly excited the other day over the supposed dis¬ covery of a valuable oil well on the proj>- erty. The surface of a small stream which rune through the place was ob¬ served to bo covered with what seemed to be j)etroleum, and the doctor was on the point of sending for an exjiert to locate the weil, when a chance visit to the cellar of his house, where the stream has its source in a spring, revealed the origin of the oil. It seems that a women who frtquently comts to the Seiple farm to assist in the housework had been jire¬ sented with a monkey by a dying friend who imjiosed the condition that the animal should be well-fed and well treated through life. On her '^^ .".oit- the women bad brougi^'.-'tiii;' monkey With her, chaiuinj» t.iui iu the cellar. Like the rest of his race, he was of au investigating turn of mind, and soon dis¬ covered a barrel of coal oil, he turnetl the spigot, drank a little, applied the liquid externally as a fiee exterminator and jiermitted the rest to run on the floor. This jiollutied the spring iu the cellar, wliilii the result already stated. When the cauae of the excitement became gen¬ erally known in the neighborh(X)d of Centie Square the laugh was on Dr. Siiple, who threatened to put a wick in the now thoroughly oiled monkey and uae him as a lamp.
