WdeAwake Men Women Who Constitute the Business Backbone
Of Our FIourishing and Prosperous Community

the last few years that the science Of
optics has been studied with reference
to health and disease, but optical ap-
pliances are now recognized as impOr-
tant prophylactic and therapeutic
agents.
Charles ii. Hinges, doctor of refrac-
don, is a graduate optician of seven
teen years practice and experience.
lie studied optics at the New York
optical Institute, at the Philadelphia
Optical college and hospital and at the
Chicago Opthalmolic college and hos
pital. Mr.. Hinges place of business
IN Salem is eigibly located at 30S
Commercial street. He has all the
modern improved appliances for test
ing the sight. and besides carrying a
large stock OF lenses in every variety
known to optical science, grinds
lenses for his own use and to fill the
prescriptions of occulists. He exam
ines the eyes, and offers his profes-
sional advice free of charge, and in
cases where the sight is imperfect
VIII make lenses to correct the varia-
ton from natural sight His charges
ior lenses and frames are reasonable,
and bis patrons receive the benefit of
cons citation and tests free of charge.
The eyesght begins to fail at about
the age of forty, but many eyes are
..eic I've from birth, or become so in
childhood. The fact is" says an emf
nent UcultIst, perfect sight, without
The use Oh properly fitted spectacles,
is rare thing" Defective sight re-
acts In many ways and persons suffer
from many ailments which, traced to
their source, are found to be induced
by imperfect refractiOn. The most
common of these, perhaps, Is the head
ache, which people try to cure In ev-
cry way but the right way. In such
cases, however much medicine the
sufferer may take, the headache will
never be permanently cured until he
resorts to glasses, and wearing these
suited to his eyes, removes the cause
Of the trouble.
Mr. Hinges is also watch maker
and jeweler. lie carries n good stock
Of fashionable jewelry and standard
American watches. He makes a spe-
cialty of repairing watches and man
ufacturing emblems, badges, souven-
ir goods, etc.
G. III. Hinges was born under the
American flag in Europe. He formerly
lived for many years In Texas and
other parts Of the South and is a great
admirer Of the Southern people. The
writer may add Mr.. Hinges is himself
endowed with the affability and suav-
ity of manner so pleasing in the
Southern gentleman. lie has been on
the Pacific coast seven years, and
prior TO coming to Salem, n year and
Il half ago, was in business in Port
land. His honorable business meth
OdS and excellent character have won
him gratifying success here as else
where.
Addenda:
Since the above was written Mr.
Hinges has placed at the disposal of
persons desiring information ON the
subject, booklet entitled Care of the
Eyes" 1t Is a valuable tract, and
should be read by everyone.
We omitted to state above that Mr.
Hinges has IA dark room provided
with artificial lights, so that any time
during the day the eyes may be tested
by artificial as well as natural light.

STONES DRUG STORE,
333 Commercial Street.

Stones drug store was established
in the summer of 1896, and in the year
and half it has been open to the
public has built up valuable and in
| creasing trade. The stock carried by
| this popular drug store comprises
everything usually handled by a first
class drug house, and includes, be-
sides the general line of drugs, medi-
cines. proprietary remedies, etc, q full
line of fine imported cigars and CON
fectionery, toilet articles and drug
gists' sundries The speciality of this
house, however, is its prescription de-
partment. Only the purest drugs are
used. and all prescriptions are sub

ing compounded
1t has been said that a thorough
knowledge of the business is the best
capital druggist can have. Admit
ting this to be a fact, DR.. $. G. Stone
has an abundance of capital, for he is
graduate physician, and has had in
valuable experience as a prescription
pharmacist.
Stones drug store is eligibly located
at 333 Commercial street In the ele-
gance of its fixtures and the attractive
manner in which its stock is displayed,
it would do credit to a city much
larger than Salem. The store is pre-
sided over by the doctor in person.
and his daughter, Miss Stone, who is
herself prescription pharmacist,
having passed a satisfactory examina-
ton before the State Board of Phar-
macy in 1895, and received her licence
to practice pharmacy.
$. G. Stone, NJ. D., was born in the
state of Illinois, but came to the coast
thirty-three years ago. He is a grad
uate of the medical department of the
Willamette university, besides taking
a postgraduate course at the New
York Polytechnic and also at the New
York Post Graduate college. This is
certainly boon to many people who
are in need of medical advice, and
who can i'll afford to pay both physl-
clan and druggist; for DR.. Stone pre-
scribes free of charge, being satisfied
to reap what compensation there may
he in filling his own prescriptions and
in future purchases of the patient and
patron.
Dr. Stone came to Salem from Port
land, where he was formerly in bus
mess, in 1896 He has had twenty
eight years experience as a practicing
physician, and for twenty years has
conducted a drug store In connection
with his practice. For about five
years the doctor has not practiced out
side of his store. 1t is permissible to
add that DIR. Stone has been uniform
ly successful, both as a druggist and
as a physician, and his business career
in Salem has placed him among the
Capital City's leading merchants and
professional men. He stands deserv-
edly high in business, financial and
social circles, and is justly counted
one of Salem's prominent citizens.
