"But I am going to put it off as long a9 1 can" you say,
'for after I begin to wear glasses, 'I shall have to keep it
up." But listen Suppose you have "keep il up" with
injured eyes and impaired vision, as a consequence of your
procrastination? And that will be the inevitable result.
You may postpone the wearing of glasses a lew years but as
a consequence suffer from impaired visual power for many
years. Will the sop to your vanity compensate for the dis
comfort and perhaps distress to follow?

NORTH PLATTE, NEBRASKA.
W. D. FiHhor, who for six months
has been secretary of tho North Platto
Chamber of Commerce, has accepted
a call from the commercial club of
Boise, Idaho, at a salary of two hun
dred dollars por month. Undor tho
Uoise contract he must roport
hor not later than Octobor 15th,
and It is probnblo that ho will loavc
horo Sunday or Monday, as It is his in
tention to drive through In Oils car.
Tho Bolso club has a mbmborshlp of
700, own a bluldlng, and is said to bo
a vory live organization. Mr. Flshor
was selected from a numbor of applica
tions, all othors having been elimi
nated whon Mr. FiBhor's recommenda
tions wore prosonted and read.
Mr. Flshor is "tho llvest wire that
has ovor boon In North -Platto, as la
evldonced by tho work ho has accom
pllBhed since coming to this city. Two
Inetnncos of his dynamitic force was
"ho successful Fourth of July celebra
tion and tho county fair, and lri ad
dltlon to these he secured two or threo
conventions for North Platto, traveled
several hundrod miles in marking the
roads leading Into North Platte, has
flono much toward Creating a more
friendly feeling botwecn farmers and
merchants; in fact he( has worked
fifteen hours a day and during each
hour he has accomplished something
that added to tho . commercial activity
of tho ctiy.
Wo regret to lose Mr. Fisher, for we
feel that his real worth to the city
had not reached its zenith, that each
day he remained made his services
mqre valuable. Ho is an indefatigiblc
worker, a wonderful organizer, he en
thuses everybody, and ho gotB results.
In his broader field at Bolso he Is cer
tain 4o have bigger things to do, but
wo believe he will meet every requlr-
mont In a manner satisfactory to tho
people of that live city.

pretty bad shape. The bones in his
right leg bctweon tho knee and ankle
wore not only broken but crushed.
It will be thirty days before Uyj cast

say it will probably bo a year before
he can use tho leg 'to any great ex
tent. Even then tho log will be about
an inch short and the foot will be
abnormal in shape.
