DEAR PUBLIc:-
There is but one reason why do not

and that is because you who have not.
seen my work do not know how much
better it is for your eyes.
During the first six years that I
practiced Optometry I too examined
eyes by having my patients read let
ters on . chart across the room and
when they said they could see best I
prescribed those lenses % their cor
rection; but As time passed became
ashamed of my lack Of efficiency in my
work and began q hunt for place to
get = knowledge Of Optometry that
would be satisfying to boeh my patients
and myself.
After looking over the eastern field I
succeeded in placing myself under DR..
Ferguson. Of New, York who is con-.
ceded to be the greatest retinascope
operator In that city, and since that
time (thirteen years @ago)I have had
the joy Of being An absolute master Of
my work, instead Of guessing at the

any questions. exactly what lenses are
required to correct the error. This 10
the highest degree Of skill obtainahle
in the optical world and you who need
glasses should consider yourselves for
tunate in having such skill brought to
your town. This method of mine is
particularly good for examination of
children's eyes.
SYMPTOMS INDICATING THE NEED OF
GLASSES
Failing vision, particularly under
artificial light, Nervousness, Chronic
Headache. Pains or depressed feeling
over the eyes, Floating or stationary

guarantee all my work and my
charges are reasonable.
Now, people, your eyes are your
most valuable asset, and if they are
not doing their work comfortably, you
should have them cared for imme-
diately, and when you do this you
naturally want the best of skill. #
you will spend fifteen minutes with me
at my office l will prove to you that
have the kind of work that you want,
the kind that will make your eyes
happy.

Spaulding Company
To Control LucIIiamute

The public service commission today
granted a boom franchise to the Spauld-
ing Lumber company for the Luckia-
mute river in Polk and Benton coun-
ties. This includes the right to build
splash dams, and practically gives the
local company the exclusive control of
the river.
It was further ordered that proper
signs be placed at crossings and fords
in the river, and that special care be
taken at the times he logs were running.
The order was issued this afternoon.
The Spaulding Lumber company has
extensive interests in Polk and Benton
counties, and are probably the largest
timber operators in that section. 1t is
believed that much work is planned for
the coming year.

pbe Western Union has sent circu-
lar letter to its clock patrons advising
them Of the change from the old to the
new time schedule will involve a con-
siderable amount Of mechanical labor on
the part of the company, and esklng a
reasonable amount of indulgence on the
part Of the patrons if their clocks do
not seem to act just right for a tenn
porary period. The letter hints that the
clocks may seem to be running forward,
backward, or not at all at times. Vest
ern Union clocks will automatically ad-
lust themselves over a period OF five
minutes variation, counting two and
on half minutes ahead and two and
one half minutes behind the correct
time. But when it comes to whole hour
the clocks are helpless as far as help
ing themselves are concerned and each
must be visited and examined by an
inspector.
