(From Tuesdays Daily)

Arrivals yesterday from New Wa
ter, in the northwestern part OF
this county, stated that the closing
OF a big deal for over 800 head OF
range cattle owned by James Bis
hop. had taken place in which the
prices paid were $50 per head for
one-year olds, $50 for twos and $40
for threes.
A buyer from Imperial, Cal, clos
ed the transaction, and was anxious
to take over as many head as could
be furnished at those prices. Other
rangemen refused to sell preferring
to hold over until later in the sea
son, as range conditions are the
best ever known, and cattle are get
ting in fine form.
These prices are the best ever
known in the history of the cattle
business in the State, so far as {
range deal is concerned. During
the next three months cattlemer
in that region expect further adj
vance in the price per head for al
grades. hence they are not anXiOu:
to sell at the present time.

Innocent play INDUCED in by an
eight-year-old brother and six-year-
old sister yesterday afternoon re-
suited in the probable fatal shooting
of the latter, the pretty little
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Valley of
Humboldt. The sad affair is made
even more pathetic by the destitute
condition of the parents and the
remarks of the child lowering in
the face of death at the county
hospital.
The Valley youngster had dis
covered early in the day an old,
discarded twenty-five calibre rifle
and was enjoying the time of his
life, playing with it, when his small
sister appeared. The youngster
placed the treasured relic in her
care while he went to procure a
cartridge he had possessed for some
time past.
Returning, he placed the cartridge
in the barrel of the rifle then pro
ceeded to try to pull the trigger
1t failed to work. Unwittingly, he
procured a hammer. The barre
was lying upon box and the little
sister with the gun aiming directly
at her, was standing innocently by
probably totally unaware of what
was going on about her.

How tO Save
 Your Eyes
NrN This Erna PrNscrintiOn.

Do your eyes give you trouble? Do you already wear glasses or spccta- cleE? Thousands of people wear these "WindoWs" who might easily dispense with them. You may he one of these and il is your duty to save Nour eyes before ii is too late The eHos are neglected more than any oth- CT organ of the entire body. After you finish your days work you sit down and rest your muscles. but how about your eyes? Do YOU rest them? You know you do not. You read or do something else taht keeps your eyes busy; you work your eyes until you go to bed. That is why so many havc strained eyes and finally other eye troubles that threaten partial or total blindness. Eyeglasses are merely crHtchcs; they never cure. This free presentation, which has benefited the eyes of so many, may work equal wonders for you. lTse it a short time. Would you like your eye troubles to disappear as if by magic? Try this prescription. Go 10 the nearest wide awake drug store and get bottle of Optona tablets; fill a two-ounce bot tie with warm water, drop in one tab let and allow it to thoroughly dis solve With this liquid bathe the eyes two to four times daily. Just note how quickly your eyes clear up and how soon the inflammation will disappear. Don't be afraid to use it; it is absolutely harmless. Many who are now blind might have saved their eyes had they started to care for them in time. This is simple treatment, but marvelously effective in multi tudes of cases. Now that you have been warned don't delay day, but do what you can to save your eyes and you are likely to thank us as long as you live for publishing this prescrip- ton.
