YOUR. EYES DESERVE THE BEST
The best light for the eye is light from the sun in its natural proportions.
Leading Oculists admits, and most of them frankly say that "any material used for making eye glass and
1 spectacle lenses that absorbs any portion of natural light is injurious just to the amount it absorbs'"
The best material for the correction of errors of refraction must be that which will most nearly transmit
' natural light in its original perfection.
Yet the lenses in use today cut out the most essential clement, robbing the eye of that particular portion
of light the most strengthening and nutritious.
The newly discovered Health-Ray Lens will transmit the valuable short waves or health rays, and a
greater amount of all other light than will any other lens substance.
Registered trade mark on each and every Lens when delivered. Insist on it being there if you want
the genuinr.

That tho humble railio.id tie is a
ni(fl important factor in the inatorial
duvolopmoiii of tins country is a great
truth that, is little understood by
liconlo outside of railroad eludes. Tho
pulling engine that speeds at the rate
of a niile or more a minute over Uic
country is a slave to thu two steel rails
that insure a smooth ami safe road,
and tho-c rails In turn depend on tho
old-fashioned wooden cross tie which
holds them in place.
Yankee invention has not vet found
a substitute which has Induced the
railroads to give up wood, although
experts say that tho day will surely
couio when the country's forests will
no longer be cillod upon to supply thu
demand for lies. Up to thu presont;
timo it seems that no other material
has been found which has tho resil
iency of wood and which at the same
time caic-o loss wear and tear on ho
rails, fastenings and ro.id bed. J
The cumitrr'rtallroads during .tho

to lfiOOOO000 of sawed and luwn ties
