CAMPHOR A HYDRASTIS
FINE FOR SORE EYES
It is surprising how QUICK eye in-
flammation is helped by camphor,
hydrastic, witchhazel, etc., as mixed in
Lavoptik eye wash. One day whose
eyes were weak and watery for three
years was helped AT ONCE. An-
otypr case of red, inflamed eyes was
also bWfefitted. One small bottle La-
voptik usually helps ANY CASE sore,
weak or inflamed eyes. Aluminum

GROUPING THE SAP WITH NATIONWIDE RAIL SYSTEMS
- ‘ • • ’____________. - A- ' .
Grouping of several railroad systems, including the Sap which is under the
Southern Pacific System, is being considered by the Interstate Commerce
OMnmission. Besides the Sap and the Southern Pacific System, the Union
Pacific and one other road are included in the proposed merger.
The public generally looks with disfavor on the grouping, because the con
sequences of such a change cannof be foretold.
Employees of the Sap are endeared to the local public and a change in
ananagement may remove from our midst friends of long standing.
There is a spirit of friendship among the employees of the Sap fr6m the
snoot bumble employee to the manager. This spirit has no equal in the world
nnd thia spirit of congeniality may all be torn asunder.
When a few local changes are made just for the benefit of the one road
-which runs through the town, friends are tom away and families have to go
Ixj new places and make their home again. There is no knowing but what
tinder the combined systems just such transferring of employees may be done
ta wholesale style. For the benefit of the merged systems, practically the
■entire shops may be moved from the city at the dictates of the Interstate Com
snerce Commission or the management of the combined roads.
This railroad grouping idea is not met with favor here.

An old fashioned blue marble tombstone marks the top of one of the most
dangerous hills for motoring in Pennsykania. On the stone are carved the
words “Dangerous,” and “Fourteep Miles^to the Nearest Hospital.” A skull
and crossbones is tastefully carved at the top of the stone.
This type of tombstone graces many an ancient cemetery and bears witness
that there was a time when men took the hazards of life anh death seriously.
“Prepare for death and follow me” was their grim warning to the passer-by
Nobody mourns their passing from popularity as cemetery memorials,
they re-appear fitly as warnings to the careless motorist.
The reckless driver never thinks that he is preparing for death, but statis-
tics prove his optimism is often unwarranted. Every time he disregards
safety precautions he is preparing for death—his own or that of some victim
of his selfishness. If he and his possible victims are spared, it is not because
safety precautions are unnecessary but because that day’s fool calendar is full
The dour old tombstone probably will make a good many people laugh. It
should make a good many think, also—not only on the hill where fatal acci-
dents have been numerous, but out among motorists generally.

The farmers are said to have $2,000,000,000 more than last year, but how
