Sommer Hotel Parlors
A JEALOUS MAN IS EXPLAINED AS
FOLLOWS , -
By Dr. Pont the eye tpeciali'tt.
Glancing over the evening Observer I
was amused at the article inserted by 0.
M. Heacock, claiming to know a certain
traveling optician who it now in La
Grande whom he said, he met in Sa em,
Oregon last April 1 1. 1906, who he taid
failed to pass the state Board and who
went before the state Board of Optome
try again thit year January 19th and
was successful in passing, was now in
town, and many other things which I
hope none failed to read. However as 1
do not class mvsalf with rh nrJim,.
FOR ONE WEEK. Jeweler and Ootician. I fl . th h.
was aiming his arrow at me, and as I am
the only traveling specialist here, I feel it
my duty to answer this insertion, in which
I miisf a ii f nnnn. M M f 1 . I J - -
Dr. Pons is just from the East where , eock tn9 Jeweler Md 0pt;cian ev(m
knew tr.ere was such a man in. existence
until I came to town thit time. I take it
a granted that I am the one he refers
to, althono names were mentioned, as I
just took tne examination and passed
with h;gh honors and I doubt at to
w miner ne went oerore the examining
board to get hit paper. All the Opticians
in the state of Oregon, at the time the
law was passed got their certificates
without examination whether they were
college graduates or not. As to my 200
pound grinding plant in all it weigh 400
pounds, all are invited to call and see it

amination and those who got them with

and any additional ad which may appear
in the paper, altho I am doing lota of
business and shall try and not do all the
work t I believe in getting my thare

HOW TO AVOID PNEUMONIA
We have never heard of a single in.
stance of a cold resulting in pneumonia or
other lung trooble when Foley's Honey
ar.d Tar has been taken. It notonly stops
the cough but heals and strengthens the
lungs. Ask for Foley's Honey and Tar
and refuse any substitute offered. Dr. C.
J. Bishop of Agnew, Mich., writes: "I
tnve used Foley's Honey and Tar in three
very severe cases of pneumonia witn good
results in every case."
