The Eyes.

If children were taught better care
Of their eyes there would be less work
for the oculists. Rubbing the eyes
with the fists or straining them in a
bad light, or bending too near the work,
all make the vision poor and call for
glasses and treatments. It strengthens
the eyes to wash them occasionally,
many people advise washing the eyes
every morning along with the bath.
The best eye wash consists Of lev
eled teaspOonful of boric acid dissolved
In a quart of distilled OF boiled water;
or, pinch of salt added to small tea
cupful Of water. Rolling the eyes froln
side to side strengthens the muscles
and tends slightly TO make the eyes
larger. But this is an exercise that
should only be tried when the eyes
are feeling fresh, as it stimulates.
When the eyes are tired this wash, or
bath Of hot water, with a sponge or
cloth soaked in hot water held right
over the eyes, is the best plan. For
this will bring the blood to the eyes
and the heat will soOthe the nerves.

It's the Season for
BaZarS and SupperS

Between now and Christmas
several organizations will hold
bazars, offering for sale hand
made articles suitable especially for
christmas giving. We should
appreciate these sales as solution
of the problem of keeping up the
Red Cross work, preserving, to a
degree at least, the Yuletide spirit,
and at the same time helping
materially in the upkeep of the
various churches. The churches
are needed now as never before,
and in every phase of its vast
work, the Red Cross workers are
being urged to greater speed and
efficiency. So go to each of the
bazars prepared to buy as many
as possible of the pretty things
prepared for your selection.
The Presbyterian ladies will
conduct their sale at the Angelus
dining room Thursday afternoon,
Dec. 6, with a fine roast beef
supper at FIVE O'Clock for so cents.
The Methodists have selected
Thursday afternoon, Dec. 13, for
their sale at the church, followed
by supper.
Go prepared to buy literally.

increased expense. but the great

which is far from met by an ad-

Alex Roy Loses In
Battle For Life

After lingering along for more
than a month in the Physicians
Dietetic Home, Denver, during
which time he showed marked
signs of improvement, Alex Roy,
the well-known mining man, was
forced to surrender in his battle
for life and was called to his re-
ward Friday morning, November
30.
Mr.. Roy had been in failing
health since early in the year, and
on October "a was taken to Den.
yer apparently suffering from
pneumonia. Under careful treat
ment he gained strength and threw
off the pneumonia, but his miners
complaint developed into dropsy
and he was unable to overcome
the ravages of the disease.
Alex Roy was one of the success
full miners of Idaho Springs, and
his interest in the Edgar lease on
the Big Five made him a snug
fortune. Now, at the age of only
36, when he was in position to
enjoy the fruits of his early labors,
he is snatched by the hand Of
Death.
The funeral will be held Mon
day morning from the Cathedral
of the Immscuisses Conception, in
Denver, and the burial will be
effected in Boulder cemetery
Monday afternoon.
The deceased leaves widow and
son Robert, and many friends to
mourn bis untimely demise.

EMBARGO DOES NOT
AFFECT MARKETS
Crop Report Indicates Wheat
Yield Of 675,OOO,0OO
Bushels

Chicago, July 9.-President Wilson g
export embargo proclamation had litale
or no effect on grain prices at the OPP
ening of the Chicago board of trade to-
day, owing to the restrictive regulations
enacted some time ago which prevent
"speculation in wheat futures.
There was no trading in July wheat
at the opening, which closed Saturday
at $2.07 September wheat was down
/ at $192.
The government crop report, due aft
er the close of the grain markets this
afternoon was expected to show bull
ish condition for July wheat (the win
ter future) end the opposite for Sep
tember (the spring figure). The report
was expected to show combined pro
duction of spring and winter wheat of
675000,000 bushels-275, 100000 spring
and 00,000,000 winter-compared with
656,000.000 bushels predicted last month
and 100000 harvested last year.
Comment on the effect Of President
Wilson s embargo from two leading
Chicago grain houses varied.
J. Herbert Ware, of Ware q Leland,
said:
"There may be some temporary eff
feet on the market but this well be in
.fluenced by supply and demand A
slight break may come but the market
will readily adjust itself under govern
ment handling on the basis of supply
and demand"
Lamson Brothers made this com
ment:
'fWe look for lower prices in view of
the statement from Herbert c. Hoover
that exports in corn and fodder are to
be limited. The tendency of prices in
oats we expect will be lower.
stThere is now no trading in wheat
futures, commission houses being re,
stricted to cleaning up old contracts and
trading only when actual delivery can
be made.p
