Relief for
tired eyes
If the glare of the sun and the bright
light of summer days makes your eyes
tired, you will find most gratifying
relief in tinted lens glasses. Until
you try them you can have no idea of
the comfort they bring.
They do not dim vision. They simply
filter out the fntigueing ultra violet
light rays.
Come into Clinton's and examine tinted r
lens glasses. We can grind them to t
correct any defect in. refraction.

Tho parting gift
A Vest Pocket Kodak.
It is monotony, not bullefs that our soldier boys dread.
At the front, they will uphold bravely the traditions that are
dear to every loyal American heart. But in the training
Scamps and during the months of forced inaction, there are
Y going to be some tedious, home-sick daysdays the Kodak
can iruikc more cheerful.
There 8 room for a little Vest Pocket Kodak in every
soldier's and sailor's kit. The expense is small, six dollars.

deigned With a full realization of the extra scrutiny women arc giving to their purchasing and their
incc'asin demands for continuing service. Plus this our selections were made with these considera
tions added to a keen appreciation of local demands and selling possibilities.
Avoiding the frankly freakish and transitory fashions we have garments that are quite as substantial in
style as in fabric and workmanship and that afford those who must be well dressed upon limited expen
ditures really unusual values at
$20 to $45

Consider the reason why, in the building of this range, it
requires inventive genius to construct it so there will be
no levers to turn, plates to remove, or mechanism to get
out of order, and yet do the work that all of these com
plicated parts USED TO DO.
These improvements are patented; 'that is why this range
is a distinctive specialty. That is why it is superior to all
others. It burns coal or gas either separately or togeth
er. It is a complete coal range and a complete gas range
all in one. We want to -tell you about all of these conve
niences and demonstrate them to you. When you call be
sure to ask for the Boiler-Iron Chief 3-Puel Book. It's

opent our first days in a cradle made of lumber.
Our lives have been lived between walls of two

and matched flooring beneath our feet. We have

of time will be laid to rest in wooden cnsket.
