TRADE. FAIR PLAY.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-09-09

In a letter recently received,
one of the largest optical
houses in England stated that
they do not accept any new
accounts and every customers
order must take it's turn, re-
gardless of the order or the
customer; and that it is con-
sidered prompt service to turn
out simple spherical lenses in
two weeks, because more fire.
quently the customer waits
six to eight weeks.
How long it will be before
we are confronted with SINH
lar conditions here, although
Every day the delays in get
ting lenses and mountings
grow larger and no doubt will
get worse as the scarcity of
help in the factories becomes
more acute.
The safe plan is to insure
against delay by having an
extra pair of glasses on hand,
in case of breakage or loss.
At present1 have large stock
of lenses and mountings which
were bought before the sharp
advances took place. I am
giving my patrons the advan-
tage of my foresight, and am
only charging the prices that
prevailed when 1 placed my
orders
Now is the good time to
get eyeglasses at an advantage
in price and time.

Red Cross Attention Station.


Our attention station at the depot
under Mrs. Maxey's able directioIs
has handled 5000 men within the
past ten days, there being contin-
gent of 600 in one relay These men
were of all kinds, drafted men, Home
Guards, regulars, etc., and some train
loads were north and some south
bound. Apples were ION tap for all
but one division, these poor poys al
most shedding tears of disappoint
ment at not finding some red-cheeked
Oregon apples to welcome them.
However, the apple supply has again
been replenished, and the present
need is for magazines and then more
magazines, also books. The maga-
zines should be reasonably new and
of more virile and red-blooded va
riety than "Women's Home and Fash
ions Journals" Strange to say, the
boys don't care one bit for fashion
notes, no matter how absorbing. That
the attentions of our attention sta
tion are duly appreciated is evidenced
by the following nice letter recently
received by Ashland's Red Cross:
Somewhere in Oregon,

ION behalf of the Solano county,

Our Boys in France
and Home Protection

The men on the firing line represent
the pick of our American youth. One
in four OF our boys at home was sick,
rejected because of physical deficiency.
Many times the kidneys were to blame.
If we wish to prevent old age coming
on too soon, or if we want to increase
our chances for long life, DR.. Pierce
of the Surgical Institute, Buffalo, MY,
says that you should drink plenty of
water daily between meals. Then pro-
cure at your nearest drug store, Anuric
{ double strength). This "An-u ric"
drives the uric acid out and cures back
ache and rheumatism.
If we wish to keep our kidneys in the
best condition a diet OF milk and vege-
tables, with only little meat once day,
is the most suitable. Drink plenty OF
pure water, take Anuric three times
day for month.
Send DR.. Pierce ten cents for trial
package. rAnuric'-many times more
potent than lthia, eliminates uric acid
as hot water melts sugar. A short
trial will convince you.
