Oirt aooypoo people have alreed liac your the pur- •*4 ^ P|gfN| '"1 -1 £ X*tjr ; In order to clear up a misunderstanding among the people as to the * condition of the eyes I want to say a few words to you so there will be less worry about your eyes. In the first place, anyone forty years old or more unable to read or sew without glasses, this condition is not a sickness or bad eyes. It is merely an abnormal condition which can well be corrected with a good pair of glasses. Of course younger people have their eyes examined and we find they are either short sighted, long sighted or we find that condition causes astigmatism. If you or your children have astigmatism that doesn't mean by any means that your eyes are bad or sick. Astigmatism is merely a Latin word to indicate abnormal shape of an eye or an eye which is not perfectly round. This eye is generally as good as any other eye, but the patient is unable to see as clearly. Nervousness, dizziness, head aches may be due to astigmatism. The greatest possible injury you bring on yourself is by buying ready made glasses. You never know what you've got until your eyes are ruined. Go to a reliable scientific optometrist, who does nothing else but test eyes and make glasses* I don't use any drugs in your ^ eyes and my work in this township seems to be very much appreciated. I have examined eyes for thirty years and also grind my own glasses. If you have trouble with your eyes come any Monday afternoon between 12:00 and 3:00 o'clock. T will give you an examination. If you dont need glasses I will honestly tell you so.
