THE EYE AND IT'S CARE
BY DIR. A. w. PATTERSON,
OPTOMETRIST

THE HUMAN EYE
Is miracle of efficiency if nor
NAL, but it is the cause of many
undesirable conditions if abnormal.
And the sad truth is that most
eyes are abnormal to some extent.
Abnormal eyes mean strained eyes,
and strained eyes mean headaches
and other troubles. Nothing but
glasses can make abnormal eyes
function normally. Give your eyes
proper attention by having them
examined frequently.

Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, January 27.-The
stock market after a period of IN
certainty ut the opening today de-
veloped all around strength and the
trading III the last hour was ihe
liveliest in some time. The closing
prices were right at the top Tor the
speculative leaders and sentiment was
highly optimistic. The effort to break
steel common on the dividend acton
failed and the stock came back over
most of the ground lost.
Traction Stock Active.
Greater New York Traction stocks
We're prime favorites. On unusually
heavy trading. third Avenue ran up

waited modified guaranteed. Pre-
Ciseiy what the reason was for TAX

There were vague references TO
more settled political conditions ana
to less uneaSinesS over future pus
competition.
The + w Woolworth report for
1925 showing $9.46 a share earned.
was regarded as favorable, and
Woolworth stock was bid up. Other
specially moves took in Famous
Players, Union Bag and Paper
Postum Cereal and New York Dock.
Some further buying came into Tree
port Texas on dividend talk. There
was active buying at advancing
prices in Murray Body. due to q re-
vivaI of rumors which have been
current from time to time regarding
favorable terms under reorganlZa-
ton.
Wabash Very Strong.
The regular dividend was declared
on PENNSYLVANIA Railroad, thus up
setting recent gossip in speculative
quarters about possible Increase.
The feature in the railway section
was the strength in Wabash common
which got above 80 on heavy trading.
This revived discussion of the Wabash
going in as one of the units of the
proposed new Loree system.
Renewed activity in the motor
group caused considerable comment
in financial circles regarding the fu-
ture dividend policy Of General Mo
tors In one quarter usually we'll in
formed the talk was that an extra OF
nj least 50 on the common would he
acted upon at the meeting February
II. People who have been reported as
especially active on the buying SIDE
expect that the corporation during
1926 will distribute the bulk of its
current earnings. At the present time
General Motors has approximately
$50 900 900 in cash and Government
securities.
The latest reports regarding South
Porto Rico Sugar dividend prospects
indicate that before the end of 1926
the stock will be nearer 81 dividend
basis than the present IS. Earnings
this year. it is calculated, will be be-
tween SIS and $50 a share.
