WHICH IS BEST :?

There are two ways of buying
glasses. One way is to go to q
store where glasses are for sale and
select for yourself. You look
through:two or three dozen pairs
ann find one that seems to be about
right. 1t may be that your eyes
are not alike. One eye;is fitted and
the other is not. In buying this
way, you always fit the better eye.
The poorer eye. the one that needs
the most painstaking care is left
to itself. It will get worse instead
of better.
The other way to buy glasses is
to have your eyes carefully exam.
ined by someone who makes that
work his business. In that way
each eye is fitted separately. All
of the weaknesses and defects of
nerves and muscles are hunted out
and corrected. Your eyes are
placed in a normal condition and
grow stronger every day. The cost
is the same for the same quality of
goods. WHICH is BEST?

Peterson was Arrested.

A lumber dealer named Peter
son from Lone Tree grew rebell-
iOus on the streets Saturday
afternoon, having an overdose
OF whiskey, and Roy Pierce, a
special police handled him rather
roughly, SO says bystanders, be-
cause he refused to accompany
him peacefully to the city jail.
The man was carried to the jail
by several police where his
wounds were dressed, Pierce did
not care to make the arrest and
gave the man several opportuni-
ties to get off the streets. Peter
son yelled violently while being
taken to jail and created quite a
little excitement.

His Friends Had a Laugh.

kenmare Journal: Editor
Drinkwater of the Patterson Ad-
vocate has made a practice for a
long time OF putting his watch in
one Of his socks and placing
under his pillow. Tuesday night,
when in kenmare, instead Of
placing them under the pillow,
he put them into one of his
shoes. Whether this was due to
an over amount OF liquid hilar-
ity or too much purity polit-
les, or a combination Of the two
we do not know, but we do know
that when he hunted for them
the next morning. he was posi-
tive that he had been robbed.
His friends had a hearty laugh
when he attempted to put on his
shoes and discovered the watch
in the toe of one of them. Treats
were on him.

The First Goat Raiser.

The Steele Ozone notes the ar
rival of O. l.. Johnson, who
comes from Amor, Mimi, to
take the Murrey ranch south Of
Steele. He will put on sheep and
also a herd of Angora goats.
Mr.. Johnson has had experience
with, these animals and has
found them profitable in Mime
sofa. He believes they will be
payers in North Dakota. The
wool is sheared once a year and
is shipped to Sanford Mills, Me-,
where there are mills for working
it up. The price is from Is to
so cents per pound for common
wool, or hair, but the product Of
the full-blooded Angoras brings
from SOC to 81 a pound. Each
animal yields from three to six
pounds. So far rs known, Mr..
Johnson will be the first man on
this side OF the Missouri to make
a business of goat breeding and
it is to be hoped he will have
good results.
