SORE AND WEAK EYES

Have you ever given 1t thought
how much harm is done to your eyes
by the strong sunlight and also the
artificial light to which your eyes are
constantly exposed? If so, you will
readily understand that only by
prompt action you can avoid trouble
to one of your most necessary senses,
the eyesight. es.@. III. ~
For many years, scientists have ex.
perimented with tinted lenses, which
may prove beneficial to all the diff.
ferent prevailing conditions and dis,
eases of the eyes, and at last they
have now placed on the optical mar
ket lenses which are not any more
an experiment but a proven success.
The different lenses are too numer.
Gus to mention here, but H. K. Hope,
the Eyesight Specialist and Manufac-
turing Optician of corner Fort and
Beretania Sts., has made deep study
of the action of the various tinted
lenses and can now on account of his
knowledge gained through years of ex-
perience advise which color will
prove most beneficial in each indi.

s"To the YOUNGEST Trisb Con,

To the Youngest Irish Comedian in
1.-THE World'-Joel Cohen-Aged 8
Months-February 1916-from Allen

The foregoing inscription, engraved
on handsome little silver loving cup
would lead the reader to believe-but
for the age specified-that the genial
president of the Consolidated Amuse-
ment Company and erstwhile seeker
after honors political had turned thes-
plan and was reversing all traditions
of race and creed But such is not the
case. 49, : .,>-.-, g.
Nevertheless, a member of the fam.
lily of the president of the Consolidat-
ed Amusement Company was the re-
cipient a few days ago of the beauti-
full cup in question, carrying the above
mentioned inscription. And-let it be
whispered, for the many friends of
Joe Cohen, Sr., would never believe
him to be that age-it was no other
than the grandson of "old" Joe who
appeared with Allan Doone in the
charming little sketch "a Romance in
Ireland" presented by Allen Doone
and Miss Edna Kelley at the Bijou
theater last week.
well Done" Says Doone.
Naturally young Cohen was not en-.
trusted with difficult role but, ac-
cording T. Allen Doone-and he claims
to be some pumpkins as an Irish CO.
median and should know-the young
ster handled his role splendidly and
gives every evidence of some day GO
ing well to the forefront in the profess
sion chosen for him at a very youth
full age. According to the fond parents
of the young man he showed an apti-s
tude for acting at a very tender age
about nine months ago-and has con.
sistently and persistently followed
this bent to the present time. His adj
vent into the Irish role is his latest
theatrical effort and is decidedly
new and novel line, eyidencing a YER
satility that is most remarkable in one
SO young. While no definite prediction
is made at the present time. who can
deny that in years to come Joel Co
hen, Jr., shall take his place in the /
halls Of Thespis they are
alongside of that other great Irish CO.
median, George NJ Conan? Notice
the similarity in the last name?
1t might be well to state in passing
that Joel Cohen, ST.. he of fame as
an impresario and politician, is equal
ly as pleased as his grandson over
the stage triumphs of the latter and
stated, at the time of presentation of
the loving cup, that he would rather

COMMUNITY MUSIC
CIRCUIT PLANNED TO INCLUDE
BARRON, BRUCE, RICE LAKE,

SINGING SCHOOL ONCE A WEEK
Those Who Participate Will Receive.
Valuable TraininJ.-CcSt

The organizer and also the Direct
or of the Community Music circuit
was in the city last Monday. 1t is
now assured that the plan will be
adopted by Barron Bruce and Rice
Lake. and Ladysmith is needed to
complete the circuit. The plan is to
have a musical director spend one
day of each week in this city, or
ganize a Choral Union, Or singing
chorus much after the plan OF the
old-fashioned singing school. Each
member will receive as much individ-
ual help as possible. The cost to
each city will not be more than
$3.50 per week to be paid by the
members. A musical program OF
public nature will be given by the
members during the season and the
receipts used to assist in financing
the plan. This will make the cost
to each member very small indeed.
Miss A. Critchlow, who will have
charge of the work comes very high
ly recommended by the university.
To those who enojy music and who
wish to secure valuable training, this
will offer a fine opportunity Mon
day of each week will be the day
given to Ladysmith
In order to learn definitely, wheth-
er or not enough are interested to
make the plan possible, a meeting
is called for next Monday evening, at
1880 in the assembly room of the
new highschool building. The direct
or, Miss CritchloW, will be present
to explain the plans further and if
enough come out to warrant 1t an
organization will be perfected

LENROOT MAY SEEK TOGA

Persistent rumOrs from the north
ern section of the state indicate that
a movement is afoot to bring Con-
gressman l. l.. Lenroot into the field
as a candidate for the republican
nomination for United States sena-
tor. Fresh impetus has been given
to the movement following Governor
Philips recent announcement that
he would not be a candidate.
Congressman Lenroot is in wash
ington attending to his legislative
duties there and it is not known
whether he has taken particular in
terest in the use of his name in that
connection but his friends in the
northern section are not idle. Scarce
ly a person comes from that region
to Madison who is not ready and il
terested in a discussion of the pre-
posal to promote the eleventh dis
trict congressman to the upper house
of the national legislature.
Assemblyman Christ Ellingson. Of
Hawkins, Rusk county, was in Madi-
son recently and when asked what
the people of his county were think
ing about politically, said that there
was a strong sentiment there among
republicans of all classes, favoring
Mr.. Lenroot's candidacy.
How popular Mr.. Lenroot is in the
eleventh congressional district is in
dicated by the fact that at the last
election he was chosen congressman
for the fourth time by a vote OF
15,843 to 6,746 for his democratic op-
ponent-Madison Democrat.
Lenroot's candidacy will doubtless
be urged by many as a means CT IN
suring La Follette's defeat. We do
not believe Lenroot could carry Rusk
county against La Toilette, but that
he would draw from the senator's
following goes without saying.
