It is safe to say that 00 per cent of the houses built in La Grande this year will install them. No home is modern without them. They are as important as sanitary plumbing. Good lights are equally important, how ever, if you happen to live in a rented house. Your landlord owes it to you, and you owe it to yourself to have nothing but the best light. Electric lights are easily installed and will prove a source of lasting satisfaction to you. Call or phone Main 34.

IN XV LENSES XV Optical ticpartment in charge of Attendants Graduate of Northern Illinois College of Ontimetry. I stand upon the border of the realm of books And gaze in vain, with straining eyes to see The distant boundaries of this vast I domain. , -, ' Here a place for history is reserved, And there the poet's corner placed, And yonder the great field of ro mance stretches far And close beside are stories of the mighty ones of all the ages past. Thus on and on, and in form of books, Is treasured up the every thought of mortal mind. My footsteps now toward history s portals turn, AnA Vinrp T pnt.er in. For one short hour I gaze upon the i panorama ot tne pasi Those actors on Life's stage, who come and go. I hear the clang of arms, the shouts of triumph, and the wails of woe. I see the rise of nations and their sad decay. ' Then wearying, to the Poet's corner turn. Here I sit beside deep placid pools, And watch the play of lights and shad ows on their wonderous depths. I listen to the call of wood bird to his mate And pluck the fragrant thought flow ers blooming every where, Then turn back to the world refreshed. Now in pensive mood I come, and straightway To the field of romance haste with eairer feet. I scan full many pages e'er to learn That Human Love can shake the thrones of kings, Can flood with sunlight darkened dungeon cells And almost kiss to life the cold dead lips Of those who sleep their last long sleep. 1 pause to read the lives of great ones now. Those who suffered much, and much endured for conscience sake, Or for a cause that burned hot in their hpiirts and led them on and on. Now comes a day when all the world is dark. I When heav clouds refuse one glimpse j of silver lining bright, i When Life's way stretching Oh, so far I Seems thickly strewn with hidden : thorns ' That pierce and wound my bleeding feet. Then turn I to the realm of books for Peace. Can history ease the pain ? Ah no, nor poet's song. What care I now for stories of Earth's great. 1 They sleep in dust and ashes neath the sod And still the world moves on with lauuhter and with joy. Romance wide her portals throws We take this means of notifying the Ladies of La Grande that our Exchange department is now open.

SALTS FINE FOR ACHING KIDNEYS We eat too much meat, which clogs Kidneys, then Back hurts and Bladder bothers you.
