A Free Prescription You Can Have
Filled and Use at Home.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-Do you wear
glasses? Are you victim OF eye
strain or other eye weaknesses? II
so. you will be glad to know that &C
cording to DIR. Lewis there is real
hope for you. Many whose eyes were
failing say they have had their eyes
restored through the principle of this
wonderful free prescription. One man
says. after trying it: Il was almost
blind; could not see TO read at all.
Now | can read anything without any
glasses and my eyes do not water
any more At night they would pain
dreadfully; now they feel fine all the
time. Ii was like a miracle to me"
A lacy who used il says: The atmos-
phere seemed hay with or without
glasses, but after using this prescrip-
ton for fifteen days everything seems
clear. / can even read the fine print
without glasses" II is believed that
thousands who wear glasses can now
discard them in reasonable time and
multitudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to be
spared the trouble and expense Of
ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of

STATE HUNTING
FOR MORE CARS

OLYMPIA, Sept. 22.-Hoping to
avoid complete tieup in railroad
cars, the public service commission
is endeavoring to have Eastern
railroads move every available bit
of rolling stock to the Northwest
to handle the local products.
II requires about 1000 cars daily
to move Washington products, il Is
said. while only 1900 cars come
from outside points into the state
every day. This means hustle TO
get rolling stock.

A Town And County Library.

II it is the duty Of the State to give each
future citizen an opportunity to learn to
read, 1t is equally its duty to give each
citizen an opportunity to use that power
wisely for himself and the State. Whole
some literature can be furnished TO all the
readers in community at fraction of the
cost necessary to teach them to read, and
the power to read may then become a
means to lifelong education. A library is
an essential part Of a broad system of
education. and community should think
Il as discreditable to be without well-con-
Quoted free library as to be without good
school.
Libraries are needed to furnish the in
centive and the opportunity for wider study
to the pupils Of the schools: to teach them
the science and art of reading for purpose;
to give the boy and girl with hidden talent
the chance to discover and develop il;
to give to the mechanic and artisan a
chance to know what their ambitious fell
lows are doing; to give to men and women,
weary and worn from treading a narrow
round, excursions into fresh and delightful
fields: to give to clubs for study and amuse-
ment material for better work, and last. but
not least, to give wholesome employment
to all classes for those idle hours that
wreck more lives than any other cause.

New Grain Standards Are Effective.

The United States grain standards act
went into effect last Friday throughout the
country. For the effect Of administration
ofthe act the country is divided into thirty
two districts, with headquarters in various
large cities
About 800 inspectors have been ap-
pointed to oversee the Federal grain in
spection according TO grain standards Of
the Government To date standards for
corn have been promulgated, to be followed
later by standards for all other grains.
The plan Of dstricting the United States
for the proper inspection of grain and for
handling disputes and appeals promptly
involved large amount of work on the
