Naturally they are anxious to procure a flour of the kind best adapted to lengthy storage. There are two important reasons why PURITY FLOUT' possesses these qualities. Oine is that it is made entirely from Manitoba. Hard Wheat, The other lies in the fact that the careful Milling necessary to produce " Purity" absolutely excludes l low-grade particles of the wheat berry. It's the high grade Manitoba Hard Wheat Flour that keeps—stands longest storage. That's "Purity." "Purity" flour may cost a little more,. but is more than worth the difference.

They Fit the Eye Socket Perfectly and May Even Be Worn During Sleeping Hours -Made of Glass, For ,iWhioh No Substitute Has Yet Been Forint!. Germany lends all other countries hi. the manufacture of artificial eyes,. The American censul general at Ca burg relates that probably ever since the beginning of the world civilized people have endeavored to bide or remedy any paw in their appearance, such as the loss of an eye would cause. How Ibis was done by the va- rious nations it is bard to say. Up to the present time no discoveries have been made that would offer enlighten- ment on this subject. There are, it is true, a few unauthenticated'accounts. as far back as the middle ages, but the first reliable report is given by tbe French surgeon Awbrotse Pare W 1560. Two hinds of artificial eyes were known to him, the ekblepharos and the hypoblepbaros. The .ekblepharos was made by painting tbe eye and all surrounding parts as far as the brows on a plate, which was placed in front of the eye socket and held in position by a string tied over the bead. The hypoblepnaros was used in a manner similar to that of today, being put be- hind the eyelid. In the eye socket it - sett, and was composed of a metal shell of copper, silver or gold, covered with enamel and glass fusions. It- was only at the close of the eight- eeutb century that these artificial eyes really became of practical use, it being then found possible to do away with the metal shell altogether and employ ettamel and glass. The material used was a soft lead glass, easily shaped, buF also easily destructible, and an eye bad to be renewed every three or four months to prevent the socket, from becoming affected. It is known that In the middle of the nineteenth century eyes were made by enamelers in Dresden, Prague, London and Stockholm, and in Thuringia. The Thuringian makers were not enamel- ers. -but glassblowers working in con- nection with the porcelain painting in- d}istry, whose endless and untiring experiment resulted in the discovery of an ideal material, cryolite glass, the nse of which led to a new tecbulgne ie eye manufacture. Moreover, there can now be produced all the eletrae-• teristies of the human eye which bad been possible in enamel work. i he new prosthetic eye received the name "reform eye." To be of value. how- • ever. it must be made to exactly lit the eye Pocket. Today it is possible togive to the re- form eye any Corm and color desired. and in most eases it ran be even worn at night. thereby preventing the bid from sinking into the Socket and the lasbes from sticking together. At times attempts have been 'made to re- place the breakable•gtass by vulcanite or celluloid, but such efforts have long since been given up ns useless. In 1852 the method used in France for making eyes was as follows: On the broadly pressed end of a small, colorless, transparent rod of enamel the pupil was first made, and the `iris) was then formed on' this by means of a small, thin pointed, colored enameled rod, the designing of the iris being made possible by melting the point of this rod. In Paris the good .eyes are now so made. A. glass tube, closed at one end Mid of the color of the sclerotic, is next blown into the forst of an oval, Mid in the middle of this a hole is melted, the edges of which are round- ed ounded off evenly and pressed a little out- -ward. ut-ward. The iris is then placed in this opening and well melted in. A. thick mottling of glass remains behind. The eye is rounded off, the projecting rim of the white coat is smoothed with a Metal rod,• and this coat is thereby, joined to the sclerotic. By means of t thin, pointed red rod the blood vessels - to be seen on the bard coat of the Unman eye•ar9rthen melted 1n. The superfluous back part of the eyeball is melted off, thereby giving to the eye the desired form. ,The eye is finally placed on hot sand, where it becomes gradually cooled off.
