Prison Rules Broken
To Cheer Girl Slayer
Of FaithLess LoUer

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. g.
When Mrs Olive Reagan's mother came
to live with her in cell here, prison
rules were broken, all precedents shat
tered and a Jail became a home!
Mrs. Olive Reagan is charged with
murder. She slew Clayton H. Putnam,
the man she loved In her hour of trial
he had proved faithless; left her, after
a liason of a year to shift for herself
and acre as best she could for the child
that was to come. For this she shot
and killed him. Now she must stand
trial for murder.
And while she waits patiently in her
prison cell for the call of the court she
stitches deity, diligently on the gar
ments for the tiny victim of the trag-
edy.

for Sake of Unborn Babe.

COUCH TWO YEARS QUO
Yields to Vinol. Read Why.

Strong vigorous men and women hardly ever catch cold; it's only when the system is run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get foot hold.
 Now isn't it reasonable that the right way to cure cough is to build up your run down condition again7
 Mrs. D. A. McGee of Waycross, Ga. says: T had a chronic cold and cough which kept me awake nights for two years and I felt tired all the time. Vinol cured my cough and I feel stronger in every way"
 The reason Vinol is so eff1cacious in such cases Is because it contains in delicious concentrated form all the medicinal curative elements of cod liver oil. with tonic, blood build ing iron added.
 Chronic coughs and colds yield to Vinol because it builds up the weak ened. rundown system.
 You can get your money back any time if Vinol does not do all we say. CITY DRUG STORE. Forrest City, Ark

There IS no other organ of the body that requires as careful attention as the eyes and that are as quickly af- fected when complications arise A great many cases of total and partial blindness could have been avoided had the eyes that were affected been fitted by a competent refraction specialist and properly fitted with glasses before the trouble became chronic, There is no doubt that Dr. RICHTER is one of the best and most reliable refractionists that ever came to this city. He has thousands of praising testimonials from the best people of this community for the past ten years. He has been prac- ticing for 27 years successfully without a single complaint. His home and office are in Little Rock, and he guarantees his work for 10 years or change lenses free of charge.
 Eye-strain, being caused by structural and anatomical defects, is remedied by the correct adaptation Of glasses only, and the degree of relief obtained rom them depends upon the skill, accuracy and integrity of yoIr optometrist. Strained Eyes It seeuIs paradoxical that good vision and eye-strain can ex- ist in the same eyes, but they do, and are the cause of untold aches, pains and fatigue. Relieved by correct glasses. Wrinkles in the forehead and around the eyes are almost always caused by eye-strain, whether glasses are being worn or not. The correct glasses should l give complete relaxation to the eyes and muscles rear them. / fit the sat 1 isfactory glasses.
 The eyes are worthy Of your best care. In buying glasses, it behooves you to get them of some one who can keep the dollar-marl out of his mind, one who will do the work properly as reasonably as that can be done, the way of pr. Richter. optouetrist.

The House of Fear An old-fash- toned haunted house story, written by Emmett Campbell Hall. The photo graphy is good and the acting of John E. Ince and Rosette Brice was sincere and convincing. The plot is one in which the lawyer defrauds the dying widow and confscates the property which should have gone to the niece. As result the lawyer is continually haunted by fears.

though the vision may seem perfect Good glasses are the only permanent relief for eye-strain, and it Is of the utmost importance that glasses be ex- actly right, in which event the one pair will give comfort for years.
 The wearing of glasses is not neces- sarily an indication of age, but rather sign of intelligence the conservation of vision.
 The scientific, intelligent, drugless, painless. efficient adaptation of glasses for the aid of vision the relief of head ache and eye-straln and the prevention and eradication of wrinkles.
 Eyes need glasses, and it is unwise to "put off " the day when you must wear them. Graceful submission at the first indication of the need of glasses is the safe and sensible way.
 Glasses could be worn advantageously by almost everybody. They are ne- cesslty because nearly all of us have structurally defective eyes, for which glasses are the only permanent relief. If your eyes are not at ease, you will regret not calling on Dr. Richter
