EYES OF YOUTH
Eyes that sparkle, eyes that reflect
youth, that enhance facial beauty-these in
many, many cases are the result of intel
ligent care. For straining the eyes unduly
makes them look lifeless, dull, uninterest-
ing.
Don't ever rub your eyes with your hand.
When your eyes burn or feel irritated use
a soothing wash-such as solution OF
boraclc acid. Obtain 1t at good drug
store. Mix one teaspoonful Of the mild
acid with a pint Of warm water, then
bpthe your eyes at regular intervals.
The right care makes the eyes sparkle,
wards off the tiny wrinkles which appear
at the eye corners. and adds to natural
facial beauty.

ELK's TROUBLES.

Grand Exalted Ruler ]. Finley
Wilson must have smiled grimly
when he read Judge Clarke's decis-
ion in the injunctional proceedings
at Newark, N. J. They reafirmed
i'll a large measure the ultimatum
delivered by him and his Trustees.
In fact the Injunction Is on "au
fours" in demanding that the New
York injunction be vacated against
the Elks. 1t is an old adage, LET
sleeping dogs lie" and this justified
the New York Elks in not proteed-
ing to bring about revocation Ct

Elks might have held their meeting
there and might have gotten away
with it, for the dogs of law" were
asleep. Not so now. 1T is question
of law enforcement and court en-
forcement. All of this was caused,
no doubt, by report that a trap
had beer set to overthrow J. Finley
Wilson and to elect another Grand
Exalted Ruler He held the winning
card and he has played It, even
should it lead to the disruption of
the Order or to the loss of some
of tho prominent members of that
organization.
So far as We are able to observe
upon the face of the returns"
should the Grand Lodge be he'd
Gnywhera else, the Grand Treasurer
and the Grand Secretary must fol-
low. The money of the Grand Lodge
will follow the place of meeting
other than New York. If the New
York Elks can secure the revocation
Of the injunction within the next
few weeks, they will be sitting
pretty" Should they fail so to. do,
they will, so far as this particular
brand of Elkdom is concerned, have
gone down to rise no more"
