WHO SHALL JUDGE? proportion to its size, it is called upon to perform a greater amount of tedious, continuous, nerve-straining work than any other part of your system ? Are you aware that a vast number of ills are directly traceable to the defects of overstrain of the human eye? That many forms of headache, cerebral troubles, nervous disorder's and even insanity itself are caused by errors of refraction or muscular derangement of the eye? No matter how excellent the mechanical work in a pair of glasses, it counts for nothing unless the formula from which the lenses are ground is the correst one for your eyes. Remember, you are running no risk, taking no chances, when I examine your eyes. I use no drops or drugs of any kind as they are dangerous. My :4 years practical experience as an eye specialist is at your service without extra charge. If glasses are not needed, I positively de cline to supply them. I have fitted many thousands of people in Marion and Polk counties and the universal sat isfaction which 1 have given proves that I am worthy of the confidence placed in me. I change your glasses for one year, if necessary, free of charge. No extra charges for examination. All brok en lenses replaced while you wait, at very reasonable prices. DR. M. P.

TELLS TERRIFIC STORY OF SEAJXPERIENCE Survivors of Vessels Destroy ed by Submarines In Mediterranean New York, Feb. 12. A thrilling story of the operation of submarines in the Mediterranean and of the sinking of two shiiis with Americans in their crews was biought here today by sur- yivors from the destroyed vessels, ar riving on the steamer tiuiseppe Verdi Irom Italian ports. Ijiwrence Sullivan of Philadelphia n u.l Thomas Atkins of Fort Loade, Florida, told of the sinking of the steamer John Palmer on which they shipped from Calvoston, August 17, seventy miles east of Gibraltar, They declarel that the John Palmer was sent to the bottom by a submarine fly ing the Austrian flag, and without w arning. Tin ther Americans, escaping from a ship which was destroyed, were John Hurley, of Boston; Morris Black, of Baltimore, mid John Minnich of Syracuse, N. Y. They were members of the crew of the Italian bark Gabriel D'Ali, ifiW tons, which was sunk by bombs after being held up li- a sub- ma Hue. According to the story told by At kins ami Sullivan, the John Palmer first sighted the submarine, which sank her. as the submerible came alongide. Inquiries were made lis to the Palmer's cargo, ami the submarine then pulled away about eighty yards and sent a torpedo crashing against her side. Atkins said he was Mown high in the air by the explosion. His leg was broken, "ml he managed to keep afloat on wreckage and was picked up and towed ashore. Aged Couple Ended LUC UC1UIC rtllCI Chicago, I'Yb. 12. Life bad reached its darkest moment. Outside, the wind moaned and the tea below chill penetrated the thin walls of the cottage. So Albert St rnikow sk i, three score years and ten. and his wife, Mary, twenty years his senior, decided to give up the struggle, Neighbors today broke down the door fo the little wooden cottage. Before an improvised altar a crucifix, bible nnd an uu lighted candle they found the aged couple unconscious, clasp ed in each others arms. The gas jet was open, lint low ires sure had prevented the fumes from doing their work effectual ly. Albert was taken to the hos pital. Pneumonia promises to finish the work that gas failed to do. At the home of friendly neighbors Mrs. Straikowski re peatedly mutters in her saner moments: ' 0Od is good. Soon I ing home." Police are searching for and daughter, said tores Chicago. go- sk ijc 9f 5jc sje if German Officials Deny Submarine Fired Upon Lifeboats of Eavestone Berlin, via Sayville wireless. Feb, 12. "No Qennan submarine ever fired at lifeboats, nor will do so in the future," declared an official press bureau state ment today, denying British versions of the sinking of the British steamer Ka vest one. The full text of the press agency's, statement was: "The British Daily Telegraph on January L'l writes: Washington: Ac cording to sworn statements! of eye wit nesses, a Ocrman submarine fired nt the lifeboatas of a sunk ship.' "Evidential this is about the British steamer Kavestoue. As soon as the submarine reports, all details about this question will be given. 'Meanwhile it is repented that no German submarine ever fired at life boats, nor will do so in the future. ' This British report is a new, lint useless attempt to stifle the memory of the disgraceful deeds of the HrBitish barbarians. But Kngland will never succeed in suppressing in the civilized world the memory of such cases as the Baralong, the King Stephen and the t'rompton."
