IF FYOU

Would retain unimpaired
vision away on in your life,
use your eyes but do not
abuse them. Strength and
invigoration come by prop
er use-use that trains but
does not strain them-that
develops but does not over
task them. But when you
discern a hint of dirnness,
a tired feeling, an ache in
the eye balls or repeated
headaches, BE WARNED:
Something is wrong. There
is probably an optical de-

some of the ocular muscles.
The discomfort, the ner-

the use of glasses fitted for

VIM. Mckinley of Ohio will be the
next President of the United States by
voice of majority of the voters on the
election of last Tuesday. His vote for
President has been something Of a
landslide, and in some cases it has
gone far beyond the prediction of the
most sanguine friends of sound money.

aiming at. 1t will cheer her more to

The fad is in its infancy now, but
before the winter is over it will be a
craze, and the saleswomen and serv-

the door for you will have her hair
done in spirals under lace rosette,
and the ruffles Oh her apron will zig

her look as though she had just step

at first, but it will indicate the growth
of art and will discourage too much
indulgence in alcoholic beverages.

THE LOCAL STRUGGLE.

The heaviest vote ever polled in
Redwood county was polled last Tues
day. From present indications the
vote will reach very near the 5000
mark, or from 200 to 400 more than
ever polled at preceding elections.
The result from returns received at

diction that Mckinley has carried the

that elects him. The vote on auditor
was surprisingly close, Mr.. Anderson
only having about ten majority. The
vote on sheriff was not up to what the
Dooner men expected, they counting
on SO majority, while the tables were
turned and E. A. Pease was given the
major vote, amounting to only four.
Fred Warner ran like a scared horse,
he having 2l9 majority in the city,
just 10 more than he figured on and
six less than the vote given him by
friends who had made canvass of
the city for him. All in all the vote
was exceedingly satisfactory to the
Republicans.
For commissioners returns indicate
the election of Eric Wilson in the first
commissioner district, close fight be-
tween J. W. Carlile and Martin Bred
void in the Third district and the
election of Thos. J. Sloan by tre-
menduous majority in the Fifth dis
trict.
At noon yesterday sufficient returns
were received from the towns on the
south side of the county to warrant
the statement that E. A. Pease will be
declared elected sheriff by majority
of over 100 and A. H. Anderson is
elected auditor by majority of $50 or
over.
It also appears that S. E. Weber
has fair chance of being elected COM
missioner over Eric Wilson in the First
district and that J. w. Carlile has been
elected commissioner from the Nor
gan district.

tion of Eric Wilson by majority of

media county is not an economical one, it is
not run on such scale of riotOus extrav-
agance as that of Los Angeles; in fact, if
it were judged solely by contrast, it would
seem almost parsimonious.
The city government. of Los Angeles is
also much more open handed than that of
Oakland. For example, the Los Angeles
city attorney has two regular assistants
and Oakland's city attorney but one; here
the city clerk has one assistant and in Los
Angeles he has five; Oakland has about
thirty policemen, and Los Angeles, in the
last six months. has had 1S5 persons on
her payroll, over 100 of whom appear to
be policemen. Twenty-eight persons are
set down as employees of the Los Angeles
public library. seventy-fve of the city en-
gineer's office, 119 of the fire department,
siXty-eight as sewer employees, thirteen in
the health department and eleven in the
cny parks.

which will be of real value for a sociologi-
cal study, it should complete it's fignres by
giving the total number of different per-
sons who draw public money either as en-
ployes, contractors, furnishers of supplies
or indgents in the city and county during
the year.--Oakland Enquirer.

THE TRUE OK THE FALSE

Lecture in Which the Phenomena of Today
Is Discussed
Prof. Fred Bell lectured in Illinois hall
last night to a large audience, taking for
his subject Eastern Adopts and Western
Mediums; or, The True and The False.
In substance he said that there are two
great theories held by mankind. One is
the materialist theory, which teaches that
in some way life is the outcome of matter,
the product of organization. The other is
spiritualistic. This theory puts life back
OF form and makes it the cause not the
product of organization. He referred to
the dying out of the materialist theories
and the growth of spiritualism. In the old
Bible, which is a history of and collection
of the poems and hymns of the Hebrew
race, reference is constantly made to
dreams, visions and manifestations which
are closely akin to the phenomena, land
yet" said he, preachers and those in the
pews rail at phenomena" He drew dis
tinction between the true phenomena and
the deceptive. Prof. Tyndall gave some of
his mind reading tests, the best of which
was the locating of two rings that had
been exchanged between parties in the
audience. Prof. Tyndall was in good
form and performed all his tests quickly.
He made closing speech in which he bade
the audience farewell.
