THE GREATEST DISCOVERY OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
After 50 years of time and labor spent by most expert lens
grinders of the world in trying to perfect a lens that would give
two foci in one without any prismatic effects or spherical aber
ration, it was left to science to step in and supply the needed lens
Do you understand the great blessing that this invention
has been to glass-wearers? It means a saving of thousands of
eyes, for more eyes are injured by badly-constructed lenses than
in any other way. By allowing yourself to be fitted by incom
petent Opticians, who know nothing of the process of construct
ing the lenses you wear, you are laying your eyesight liable to
injuries which, when once sustained, can never be undone.
KRYPTOK LENSES are being worn by thousands of
glass-wearers, and are being recommended by all the leading
Oculists as the most beneficial lens for the sight that the world
has ever known.
KRYPTOK LENSES are very neat in appearance, and can
be worn by the most delicate eye, as the annoying features of
the old-style bifocal have been entirely done away with.
KRYPTOK LENSES are the only achromatic eyeglass or
spectacle lenses in the world.
KRYPTOK LENSES can be fitted ONLY BY EXPERT '
Oculists and Opticians, who understand the construction of the
lense, as well as the eye.
KRYPTOK LENSES require the most skilled lens-grinders
that the country affords.
When you get KRYPTOKS you get the best. . There are
none just as good.
KRYPTOK LENSES cost ten times more to construct than
the old-style bifocals.
KRYPTOK QUALITY mean3 the best quality.

Pp
Thousands of dollars have been spent to perfect KRYPTOK
LENSES.
The manufacturer does not make one-tenth the profits on
KRYPTOK LENSES that are made on the old-style, imper
fect bifocal lenses. When you get the KRYPTOK LENS you
get your money's worth.
Sight is more precious than gold. Then why neglect it
when you can get KRYPTOK LENSES, the greatest invention
of the 20th century? They relieve tired and weak eyes., Will
make poor eyes good eyes, and keep them good. KRYPTOK
LENSES have revolutionized the optical business of the world.
Your sight is worth as much to you as a King's sight is to
him. KRYPTOK LENSES are within the reach of all. You
will spend more money in three years buying poor lenses than
the KRYPTOK LENSES, the best of all, will cost you. Sight
is injured by the use of poorly-constructed lenses. KRYPTOK
LENSES are scientifically constructed, and will add to your
appearance. Poorly-constructed lenses make you look old.
Our .past record speaks for itself. We are the largest
optical house west of the Mississippi River, and control the ex
clusive rights for the sale of KRYPTOK LENSES in this city.
We deem the KRYPTOK LENS of such importance to
wearers of glasses that we feel it our duty to more fully acquaint
them with this wonderful lens.
For the purpose of introducing these lenses more fully we
will sell them for a week only for $8.00 to $13.00 per pair, in
cluding mountings or frames. KRYPTOK LENSES can be
fitted to your mountings or frames.

In In strength. These interviews are
passed around to the corps of newspa
per correspondents on the ground, but It
Is apparent that the Interviews do not get
fceyond Hot Springs, for the correspond
ents on that Job are mostly Washington
men. and Washington newspaper corres
pondents had more than their fill of
iBourne Interviews during the past Win
ter and Spring. Nevertheless, the Inter
views continue to appear almost daily,
nd are religiously consigned to the waste
baskets.
Tim Alters Viewpoint.
The manner In which Senator Bourne
Is now cultivating Mr. Taft Is In marked
contrast to his attitude toward him prior
to the Chicago convention. In those days
when the Senator was pumping air Into
the deflated "second elective term" boom.
Sir. Taft was a weakling: a creature of
corporate wealth: a puppet, ready to
dance at the signal from Wall street; he
was so weak that Bryan could defeat him
without half a struggle. Suddenly Mr.
Taft undergoes a great change, and in
stead of a weakling, he becomes a tower
ef strength: popular with the masses; the
foe of special Interests, and the one man
P Is going to defeat Bryan. Thl Is all
n the Bourne point of view,
ut through it all Mr. Taft has not
nged. It is Senator Bourne who has
nged. Taft is no greater today than
was six months ago, but Senator
Bourne, havln lost one Idol, has ln-
ppected Taft at close range, and decided
to "tie up with him ll possible, vv nen
3nator Bourne believed or pretended to
believe that there was a chance or renom-
nating Roosevelt, he could see no good
In Secretary Taft: now that Taft Is nom
inated and on the road to election, and
pRoonevelt Is preparing to take to the
African Jungles, the Senator has found
the nominee quite aa gooa a man as
Roosevelt, and has turned ail attention
kto him.
Some Possible Considerations.
Jfo one can speak Senator Bourne's
mlnH hut himself, and no one can au
thoritatively say why the Senator has
changed his colors, but there are sev
eral things that might bo considered
by way of speculation.
' First, there Is the Question of patron
age, dear to the heart of every Senator.
'hen Taft become President, Mr.
ourns will have a Democratic coi-
ague, if his primary law holds (rood.
hat means that cnamoeriain win nave
to voice In the naming of Federal of-
lclals In Oregon. The Oregon delega
ion, however, has an arrangement
hereby the entire delegation Is to be
onsulted about Federal appointments
in the state, every member to have
Vqaal voice with each of his colleagues,
that agreement, of course, holds good
lioljr to the itti of March nexc. The,
agreement did not work out to the
satisfaction of the delegation for rea
sons which need no further elabora
tion. Nevertheless, under that agree
ment the two representatives, who
have been re-elected, were obliged to
make concessions they would not have
made had ' the agreement not been in
force: they gave up patronage that
would otherwise have belonged ab
solutely to them.
Now Senator Bourne wants to abro
gate that agreement, and the Congress
men and Senator Fulton want to keep
It in force. If Fulton Is eliminated.
Bourns will have to fight It out with
the Congressmen, and he will want out
side aid. Mayhap he had this In mind
when he went to Hot Springs, for after
all It will lie with the President to
accept such recommendations as he
chooses; it will not be incumbent upon
him to hearken to the Congressmen un
less he so chooses.
Fulton In Iine for Preferment.
This patronage matter also has an
other phase. While Senator Bourne
was antagonizing TafU Senator Fulton
was doing his utmost to bring about
Taft's nomination. He was one of the
first Senators to declare for Taft. and
one of the hardest laborers In the Taft
camp. At Chicago he took prominent
part In the work of the Taft people.
Since the convention be has been de
voting much of his time to Taffs Inter
ests in Oregon. It was rumored that
Fulton, even though defeated for (he
Senate, would have a voice in the se
lection of Federal officers for the state
a sort of reward for his efforts. This
report reached the ears of Senator
Bourne, and it is quite possible it made
an impression.
Virtue of Standing In.
Then there is another thing that
might be considered. A Senator from a
Western state, to make a hit, mnst
"stand In" with the administration.
The penalty for antagonising the ad
ministration is severe, as demonstrated
in Kansas, North and South Dakota,
where three anti-Roosevelt Senators
have recently been defeated. Mr.
Bourne's term will expire with the ad
ministration of Mr. Taft that is, the
first administration of Mr. Taft. There
is every reason to expect Mr. Taft and
his policies and his administration to
be popular 1n the West. Therefore,
it behooves a Western Senator to be
on good terms with the administration,
rather - than antagonistic. A practical
politician would so view it.
Another consideration. Oregon sent
an instructed Taft delegation to Chi
cago, and unless the Statement No. 1
bugaboo works havoc in the state, Ore
gon will line up for Taft in November.
Without the primary law there would
be no doubt where Oregon would stand
In the general election. It, therefore,
behooves a United States Senator, es
pecially a Senator from a Western
state, to get in line with public senti
ment among his constituents.
This Is Unpardonable Sim
' Still another consideration. Senator
Bourne has publicly declared, in an au
thorized interview, that he advocates the
election of Chamberlain to the Senate.
The United States Senate forgives Its
members much, but it does not forgive
a Republican for advocating and aiding in
the election of a Democratic member of
that body, and particularly when the
Democrat comes from a state overwhelm
ingly Republican, and where the legisla
ture Is overwhelmingly Republican. The
Senate has no regard for the Oregon pri
mary law; it looks upon it as "fool busi
ness," and for that reason the man re
sponsible for that law, and the most en
thusiastic advocate of Its strict enforce-,
ment Is not adding to his popularity at
the Capitol by urging the election of
Chamberlain. But a Republican Senator,
In a Republican administration, must
stand in somewhere. Why not with the
President, if he is an outcast in the Sen
ate? Last Summer Senator Bourne cultivated
President Roosevelt by remaining In
Washington after all other Senators had
left; this Summer he is cultivating Taft
In like manner. When Senator Fulton
retires. It Is very natural that Senator
Bourne should want him to occupy a back
seat. Fulton is close to Taft; the way to
obliterate him is to get closer to Taft.
During the next four years all blessings
In the way of patronage must come from
Taft. if he shall be elected, and many
other blessings within the "reach of politi
cians. Therefore it would appear to be
good business to get as close to Taft as
possible.
Bourne's Advice Ignored.
Senator Bourne went to Hot Springs
declaring that "residuary legateeship"
was to be the paramount Issue in this
year's campaign. He urged Taft to de
clare, in his speech of acceptance, that
be would not undertake to name his suc
cessor. His advice was Ignored. It Is
also noticed that not since that speech
has Senator Bourne said a word about
residuary legateeship; Bryan has not
found in It any value as a campaign issue
and the so-called Issue has followed the
"second elective term" bugaboo to a
"mouldering grave." Let It be noted that
Senator Bourne is no longer giving ut-.
terance to sentiments not approved by
Taft. He has his reasons. He has not
stated them. So the public must make
Its own guess.

STAR TO OPEN NEXT WEEK
"Hooligan In New York", to Be In
' augural Bill. '" '
' "Hooligan in New York," a melodra
matic comedy drama, will be seen at the
Star Theater the week of September 6.
It is said to tell a consistent story and
Is as full of laughs and tears as any ever
staged. The author, Sam Morris, has
taken for his theme the incidents made
famous. In cartoons of "Hooligan" and
has woven around the character a story
of metropolitan life that is unique in the
manner of handling and presentation.
Any story that deals with the mysteries
of New Tork life has a peculiar element
of Interest in it. In spite of the news
papers, the police courts and the city au
thorities, hundreds of crimes are com
mitted that are never heard of, hundreds
of dramas in real life are enacted prov
ing that truth is sometimes more strange
than fiction. Here and there in the news
papers you may see a paragraph that
puzzles you. Could you solve the mys
tery, you might tell a story of human pas
sion and Interest, of love and hate, as
strange as any evolved by a dramatist.
Such a story Is "Hooligan in New
Tork" and the author has not gone far
afield In plot and situation to tell his
tale. The scene is laid among the Ten
derloin places of Gotham and some of
the equally notorious landmarks of the
seamy lower East Side, which includes
the once-dreaded Five Points, a Chinese
opium den. Cherry street at night, show
ing a view of the Brooklyn Bridge Illumi
nated, and a thieves' den; exterior of the
Tombs prison and the historic Bridge of
Sighs. Of course Hooligan is the central
figure of It all and thwarting of the vil
lains In their efforts to injure and obtain
the fortune of Nellie, a blind girl, is
laughable at times and at others equally
sensational and exciting. A stirring cli
max is the rescue of Hooligan, who has
been tied to a rail on the New Tork Cen
tral Railroad track, in the nick of . time
by his dog Flip Just as a train is ap
proaching The character of Hooligan is a crea
tion of the newspaper supplements and
his transition to the stage has scored a
big hit everywhere. The supporting com
pany Is a large and capable one and
numerous specialties are introduced
throughout the various acts. The price
will be popular.
