United States Warning

The eye sight Conservation Council
of America reports, together with the
writer's observation, that a normal
human eye must use 10 per cent Of
nerve energy to sec, leaving only so
per cent for all other functions Of
| human body.
That so per cent of our population
are using excess nerve force to see
correctly, and are actually compen-
stated instinctively, by the go per cent
of nerve force that nature gave for
the use of the body only
This robs the body of its natural
power of resistance of diseases,
weakens the mental and moral power,
dethrones the will and reason, brings
on physical illness, nervous diseases,
stomach trouble, head ache, and
moral degeneration.
Nature is strict master = she
never gives up more than she IN
tends in one direction, with out over
balanced account, by extracting
more from some other, than 1t Is
willing to pay out.
Science has been trying for 100
years to overcome this appalling
error, but has found no means save
one-LENSES-lenses belong to the
same law of physics as the science Of
eye sight.
The American Conservation Coun-
Gil Of eye sight, issues orders for
every man, woman and child to have
their eye sight examined once each
year. and correct lenses adapted
thereto, to save the nation from
physical, mental and moral deca-
dence.

Optimistic Feeling Prevails in All

Practically every South Side bust

majority are looking for a much big
ger jump in business this month. 1t
can we'll be said that there are but a
few merchants on the South Side that
have a complaint to make. Alert re-
tailers have started to lay their plans
for aggressive campaigns in the next

business was somewhat curtailed, as
the strike goblin came on and some
what frightened the merchants. This

not buy in quantities.

More Money Being Circulated

Haberdashers, and dry goods mer-
chants say that customers are demand
ing more Injuries and this alone is
evidence that more money is in circu-
1ation, and that it is being spent more
freely at this time than in many
months.
There is a general tendency to
higher prices, and this certainly makes
the retailer feel like buying at this
time more than at any other.
All business is now on the upward
climb and it is expected that it will
continue to be so if some spirit or
goblin doesn't come along and cut the
ladder which business is climbing.

how the little girl was run over on

the truck crashed down upon her.
Hide testified that when she wa
hurt she was returning home, after
getting a pair of stockings for her
doll, which she had left at the home
OF a neighbor.
Mr.. Felstenstein asserted he would
prove by surgical experts that HildH
