HOW YOU May THROW
AWAY YOUR GLASSES

The statement is made that thou
sands wear eyeglasses who do not
really need them. If you are one of
these unfortunates, then these glasses
may be running your eyes instead of
helping them. Thousands who wear
these windows" may prove for them
selves that they can dispense with
glasses IL they will get the following
prescription filled at once: Go to any
active drug store and get bottle Of
Optona; fill a two-ounce bottle with
warm water and drop in one Optona
tablet. With this harmless liquid solu-
ton bathe the eyes two 0r iouT til: c:
daily. and you are likely to be aston
ished at the results right from the
start. Many who have been told that
they have astigmatism. eye-strain,
cataract, sore eyelids. weak eyes, con-
junctivitis and other eye disorders. re-
port wonderful dement's from the use of
this prescription. Get this prescription
filled and use 1t; you may 30 strengthen
your eyes that glasses will not be nee
essary. Thousands who are blind. or
nearly so, or who wear glasses would
never have required them IL they had
cared for their eyes in time. Save your
eyes before 1t is too late! Do not be-
come one Of these victims Of neglect.
Eyeglasses are only like crutches and
every few years they must be changed
to At the ever-increasing weakened
condition, 50 better see IL you can. like
many others, get clear. healthy. strong
magnetic eyes through the prescription
here given.-Adv.

policeman bond, was denied in SUI
preme court in a case from Woodbury.
county. John p. Looney had secured
judgment against Matt Carr police
man. because the latter shot the plain
tiff, but he found that Carr was not
good for the judgment of $4,000. He
sued Sioux City for $1,000, claiming
that bonds were required OF all police
men, and that the custom was to re-
quire $4,000 bonds
The supreme court took the view that
requiring the bond was a governmental
function and the ordinances did not
provide for the size of the bond at all
and anyway the relation between the
city as q corporation and the bullet
wound was too remote.
But the court also took occasion to
call attention to the fact that under
Iowa laws it Is misdemeanor for any
one who is required to give bond to
transact any business as public offi-
cial without first having given the
bond, and that he Is subject I, fine

At the Orpheum

The gem of purest ray serene of the
Orpheum s new season is Irene Frank
lin, who may be called a metropolitan
favorite, for she undoubtedly is, but
that doesn t mean that she is thought
of in any less light in Harrisburg. Her
popularity is attested to by the big au-
diences and immense receptions at each
performance. And right here we must
bear in mind that other old favorites
are here this week too, no less than
our friends Frank Milton and the nifty
Deong Sisters, presenting revised
edition of their great comedy sketch
Twenty Minutes Layover at Alfalfa
Station The girls are spirited and
good to look upon, wearing some strik-
ing costumes to nicety, while Frank
Milton keeps the house eonvulsed with
his "rube' gags and side-splitting an
tics. All that remains of the old act
is the station idea and Mr.. Milton is
also retained as the man Of all jobs,
with a special hat for everything he
does. But the lines are vastly differ
ent, the situations are new and the
girls sing. But the we'll known efforts
of this trio are always enjoyed in Har-
risburg, for they seem to have a warm,
warm welcome awaiting them whenever
it happens that their names appear on
the Orpheum program. OF course, one
can t refrain from referring to Irene
Franklin when talking about the best
things at the Orpheum this week, o.
for that matter, the best things this
season.
Miss Franklin is an artist to her
finger tips with manner and style of
delivering her songs that ism t to be
compared with anyone else we have
ever seen. They are sung the way that
Miss Franklin sings them and | be.
lieve she could make gem out of any
old song she might choose to sing.
Her new numbers are delighting Orphe
um audiences immensely and they are
equally as good as those she sang here
two seasons ago, if not better. Toney
and Norman, young man and woman in
an eccentric song and comedy turn
are coming in for big honors on the
current offering too. Adv.
