are worn out or discarded.
Bring them to us-we will
make it ever for you, or ex-
change for new and desirable
goods, or pay you the cash
value for 1t. Bring it along
anyway, and we will give you
a valuation, it takes but few
minutes to test it, otherwise
it may be lost or misplaced,
and you will be the loser.
Why not turn it into cash, or
something you want.

Opera Glasses

COME novelties are fads,
- pure and simple-here to-
day, away tomorrow. The
Opera Glass is permanent, its
carrying convenience makes
it so. The chief objection To
the usual style of Opera
Glasses is it's inconvenient
bulk. We show several styles
of marvellous compactness,
some so small as to go con-
veniently into ones inside
pocket, yet containing lenses
that are powerful and with
all the desirable features OF
perfect vision. Some of the
cases are beautiful, tinted
pearl in IA KIT. filed gold
mountings, black enameled,
morocco leather bound - at
prices within easy reach.
Best makes are represented,
LaMaire, LaCarona, LaMere,
LaTour and others.
