Sudden Change In Temperature Likely
to Be Disastrous to Shell Frames,
Says optioian.

An optician, writing In the New
York Sun, gives some information that
may benefit the wearers Of she'll
trimmed spectacles.
1t is OF the utmost Importance, he
says, to be very careful not to subject
the shell frames to sudden atmos-
pheric change. You must not go from
a room in which the temperature IS
about 20 degrees into the open where
the temperature is as low as ten de-
grees. II you make that sudden
change, the shell frames will crack in
some place. A low temperature makes
the shell frames contract, and since
the lenses win not "give," the frames
must.
A high temperature, especially on
humid days, causes the shell to ex-
pand. That loosens the frames and
allows the lenses to get out Of POSI-
ton, Sometimes the heat of the body
has the same effect
To prevent, scratching the lenses,
never lay your glasses down so that
they rest on the. glass. Instead, turn
them so that the frames have, the
weight. n Is equally important to
clean the lenses in the right way. Al
ways use cloth made for the pur-
pose, and be sure that your method
IS correct. Take the glasses In your
left'.hand and the cloth In the right
and rob the lenses gently. Be careful
never to twist the glasses. Hold them
firmly and do the twisting with the
hand that holds the cloth. Then you
VIII not work the lenses loose In the
frames. F.F

CORNMEAL CHEAPEST FOOD
Even at High Prices, Leads All Other
Staples in Survey Made by Uncle
Sans Food Experts

Cornmeal, even at the present un-
precedented high prices, according to a
comparison of nutritive food values
prepared by Uncle Sans food admin
istration, continues the cheapest food
found in a survey of so staples.
There is twice as much nutritive
value in dollars worth of cornmeal,
even at the REVEALING high prices, as
in dollars worth of wheat bread.
The actual figures show that 47.4
cents worth of cornmeal now equals
one dollars worth of wheat bread in
actual nutritive value.
There are four bushels of corn
raised in this country to every bushel
of wheat, and cornmeal is as good
food for man as is wheat. 1t costs
less, and is the richest crop in our
country, say the experts.

LARGE RESOURCE GAIN

Denver-The increase in the total
resources of Colorado banks since
June 20, last, is s3.603,971.27, accord
ing to Grant McFerson, state bank
commissioner. Officials of his depart
ment attribute this unusual increase
to the generally prosperous condition
of the state as an immediate result
of the war. The figure concerns only
state and savings banks, private
banks and trust companies, national
banks being excluded.
The bank commissioners data will
be Incorporated in the fortieth regu-
lar state abstract of reports of banks
of the state, excluding national banks.
1t is revealed that the total resources
of the 1876 state and saving banks of
Colorado is Sal, ,057, 7,225.34; of the sew
enteen private banks, s1,S30,235.22.
and of the twenty trust companies,

191, ,5222S, as compared with sS6,5S7,-

last.
The average reserve, however, dis
closes a slight decrease. 1t is 27.11
per cent, as against 1923 per cent on
June 20. The state bank officials say
This is due to the fact that practically
all banks in the state have been called
upon to finance various enterprises in
cidental to the war.
They predict an even more decided
increase in total resources by Decem-
ber 1t is their opinion chat Federal
Reserve District No. 10, embracing
Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska and
Kansas, and parts OF Oklahoma, New
Mexico and Missouri, will prosper

war orders, because of the oil, coal,
grains and other war necessities they
produce.

Tax Collections Very Satisfactory.

According to an announcement is
sued by State Auditor Leckenby, the
collections of state funds has been
most satisfactory. Over "a per cent
of the tax collections for 1916 have
been made, which is beyond expecta-
tions, as per cent is always allowed
as non-collectible. Up to the present
time S4 per cent of the collections
have been made for 1917, with three
months to collect the balance. 1t was
expected that overdue inheritance tax
collections would reach but s125,000,
but instead $175,0O0 has been collect
ed from that source. On the face
of all figures the state is short but
$4,000 for paying all classes of ap-
propriations, amounting to $3,427,-
25130, and the shortage, it is expect
ed, will be taken care of by inheri-
tance collections for the remainder Of
the year.
