BORING FOR OIL.

Late last week the citizens of Sar- ford completed their agreement with the railroad company to sink the big well 500 feet further making a total depth of 2OOO feet. Operations were renewed on Monday. It is possible at the depth of 2OOO feet nothing will be developed, but there is every reason to believe that before the depth is reached that either oil. gas or artesian water will have been developed.

ONE OF THE PROOFS OF HEALTH RAY EYEGLASSES AND SPECTACLE LENSES IS SHOWN BY PHOTOGRAPHS.

SPEC EAGLE LENSES IS SHOWN BY PHOTOGRAPHS
 Take sheet of "Velox" or "Cyko" photographic paper. Put a regular spectacle lens Git doesn't matter whether it cost 25 cents or 25 dollars) and a Health-Ray Lens on the paper and expose to light
 The development of the paper will show that thirty-five times as much of the health giving light passed through the Health Ray Lens to the paper as passed through the regular lens
 It is the health-giving part of the light that effects the paper.
 It is the health giving part of light that purifies the blood and makes the eyes strong and bright.
 Health-Ray Lenses transmit practi- cally all of the health giving light to the eye, other lenses do not, as the above mentioned experiment will show.
 Health- Ray Lenses have only re gently been perfected. That is why opticians and oculists have sold the other lenses.
 It is no ones fault that you have never had Health-Ray Lenses.
 Now is your chance to get acquaint- ed with Health-Ray Lenses. Come and see us about them now. We fit and sell all kinds of glasses, but particularly recommend the Health-Ray Lenses.
 The prices of the lenses alone $6 to SIS.
 Judge by the benefit your eyes will derive from Health-Ray Lenses-they are worth many times more.

AUTO RACE

New York. Feb. 9.-For the third
year the Vanderbilt cup race will take
place in this country in 1906. For the
second year II will be over the Nassau
circuit in Long Island. The distance
will be approximately 200 miles as in
the last race, and the date will be
either Saturday, October 6, or Saturs
day, October 10.
These facts were made known in a
cablegram received in this city yester-
day from W. X. Vanderbilt Jn, donor
Of the trophy, who went to France a
fortnight ago to consult with the
sports committee OF the Automobile
Club of France concerning the dis
position of the cup. BY virtue of the
victory of Henry In the last cup con-
test the Automobile Club OF France had
the privilege OF naming a route in that
country for the race OF 1906.
The stand taken by that club. how
ever. against the encouragement OF
speed competitions placed French au-
tomobile interests in an embarrassing
position, to relieve which and to insure
race for his trophy Mr.. Vanderbilt
went abroad. II was there agreed that
as an American car finished third, this
years race should be held here.
