DANlELSON

Even the most venerable and judicious appraisers joined with the younger see of judges of happers Thursday that an Easter flock of chickens seen here during the day was the most humdingenest col- lection that Danielson has ever looked upon-and DaniGsOn has seen some chickens. and rates it's own as just three jumps ahead of those that fit along the Great White Way.
 Chickens I4awdy, what the years do bring forth! The 1922 models have all that have gone before looking like the antique section of a museum. They're growing them pink, in periwinkle, henna, light blue, old rose and with emerald green topknots these days. It may be as wel to say at this point that this is all about a flock of honest-to-goodness chick sns, a day or two old, on exhibition at a Main street store, before which people crowded all day.
 These chicks blithely scratching about lu the sand that had been placed in the 7how window where they were being eX- hibited were marvels of natures handi- work aided by the art of man. The ex- .raordinary coiorings of what may be termed, for the purpose of convenience lher plumage excited the most enthusi- astic comment from lovers of lovely and brilliant things.
 Natural tints had given place for the most part to briMant hues that recall the nursery day tales of pink elephants and green camels and silvered bears Just how the dyes were applied to gel such an amazing riot of color on the happy and active little chicks is secret that is being kept. at least for the time being. but one may be credited with hay ing a clever penchant for handling dyes To achieve the very interesting result that proved of such great interest to SC many people here
 And in another window of the store four baby rabbits added to Puts con cep-ion of what Easter show window! should be like. It may be mentioned that the rabbits shared with the chickens in pleasing all who came to see.

Poor eyes and poor teeth are due to neglect. Neglect your teeth and they decay. Neglect your eyes and your sight grows dim. Your eyes need care and if you fail to give it to them you will pay the penalty in poor eyesight.
 A cleansing. healing, strengthening To- tion for the eyes is made by dissoTving a fivegrain Bon-Opto tablet in fourth of a glass of pure water Bathing the eyes with this collyrium sharpens vision, allays inflammation, strengthens the eyeg and makes them sparkle with health. Many have used it and found to their great surprise that they do not need glasses-that they have regained perfect sight and eye comfort.

 soothes and comforts the eyes. Bon-Opto is sold and recommended by druggists everywhere.
