MONKEYS WEAR
GLASSES AND
RUIWTHEIREYES
Hospital Experiment of
Worldwide Interest
BALTIMORE, MD.;—At Johns Hop
kins Hospital, they are putting glasses
on monkeys for the purpose of upset
ting their vision. This will cause a
severe e>ie strain, and impaired vision,
which in turn affects the thyroid glands
and is expected to produce such dis
eases as nervousness, insomnia, melan
cholia. irritability, headache, goitre,
palpitation of the heart, protruding
eyeballs, and mild forms of tubercular
affections. You must admit that if
glasses on monkeys will cause such
conditions, they will do the same on
human beings.
Eyeglasses in many cases are unnec
essary and even dangerous. Many think
because they see well with their glasses
that they tit, but this is not always true.
Misfit glasses have ruined the eyes of
thousands of peoole, for at times nearly
every wearer of glasses wears glasses
I which do not fit. In the United States
i alone there are over 300,000 blind peo
ple, thousands of whom can trace their
misfortune to neglect, as neglect has
caused more blindness than any other
one thing. You value your eyesight
above everything, therefore you should
know something about your eyes, and
what to do to strengthen and preserve
them.
Leading druggists are now author
ized to distribute free to those interest
ed, a valuable book pertaining to eyes
and eye saving, entitled "How To Get
| Rid of Eye Troubles." This book should
[be in every home. It tells of a highly
efficacious home repiedy, which has
I enabled many to strengthen their eye
j sight 50 per cent, in one week's time,
and by so doing they are able to discard
their glasses. Through Its use, many
others have avoided the necessity of re
sorting to these windows. If you are>
a wearer of glasses and want to get rid
of them; if your eyesight is weak and
you wish to strengthen it. if you would
like to test the remedy, go to any drug
store and get 5 grain optona tablets.
■ Put one tablet in a quarter glass "of
I water, allow to thoroughly dissolve, and
with this refreshing solution, bathe the
eyes from three to four times daily.
Everyone, whether they wear glasses
or not, will be greatly helped through
this method of eye saving. Since this
formula has been published H. C. Ken
nedy, of this city, has been kept busy
filling it. If you follow this method,
your eyes will clear up perceptibly
right from the start. It sharpens
vision even in old eyes, and its use will
tone and strengthen the eye muscles
and nerves so they quickly become
healthy and strong. If you would over
come bloodshot- eyes and red lids, if
you would have good eyesight, and
eyes free from blurring, inflammation,
smarting, itching, burning and aching
due to eyestrain from overworked eyes
l try this solution at once. Don't put it
! off until to-morrow, as delays are dan
i gerous and the sooner you take care of
I your eyes, the better it will be for
you.—Advertisement.
