Eye Troubles
May Be Corrected
By Glasses

Correctly fitted glasses are the So
luton to most eye troubles. Optic
nerves that are working under a
strain of badly fitted glasses or with
out glasses cause headaches and lead
to serious optic trouble.
People who wear glasses must also
allow for the decreasing power of
their eyesight, due to age or intense
service and have glass lens made
suitable.
You need not go to the City or
elsewhere to get expert service in the
fitting of glasses. We guarantee
perfect satisfaction.
Any style glasses or spectacles
wanted may be secured here.

Rich Camas Prairie Realty
Beginning to Move Lively

The Globe has been giving out
number of real estate transactions for
the past few weeks, showing that the
outsiders, as well as some insiders"
have come to appreciate the fact that
Camas Prairie land is about the best
investment at present prices that can
be made. The fact is that considering
the unprecedented yields of grain,
there Is no country can offer as cheap
lands as this section. Last week the
Chronicle gave out a few real estate
deals worth mentioning, one of them
probably topping the high price rec
ord. The Chronicle says:
After couple of months of winter
stagnation the real estate market be-
gan to look up with the first signs of
sort weather and several deals were
consumated this week, resulting in a
change in ownership of several pieces
OF property.
The high water mark in the price
OF Camas Prairie farm land was reach
Ell here Monday when Alois Holthaus
closed deal for the purchase of the
Andrew Popp farm of 60 acres south
east of town, together with all stock
and machinery, for $4,000. The price
quoted by Mr.. Popp was $4,000 for
the place without the personal prop
eTty or $4,000 as it stood and Mr..
noithaus decided to take it all. At
.nis ngure the land brought the fine
price OF $1O6.25 per acre, which is the
highest price that has, to our knowl-
e sg ever been paid for farm land in
. .i,ls county. Every foot of the land is
Unable and the place is one of the
most desirable on the west side. While

Wedding" over month of work
was put on the play and it resulted in
Il big success. Costumes of the early
Roman days were used entirely as well
as the customs and furniture as near
as it could be had Briefly the plot
of the play was: Cicero's home and

Zero finds that the wife has arranged
the marriage of his only daughter to

third the bride leaving her home Ev
cry one of the actors were playing
their best and consequently all went
off smoothly. Lallah Fulton and Mar

the first and second acts and between
the second and third Lloyd Cole sang

the price paid may seem high it is
only forerunner of what may be ex-
pected here in land prices within the
next few years. for there is no reason
why Camas Prairie land should remain
below the $3.50 mark while farms in
the middle west that will not produce
as much are selling for twice that
figure.
Mr.. Popp has not decided definitely
what he will do but is contemplating
