many remedies without any permanent
relief, I happened to see one of your
advertisements and concluded to try
once more, and thank the good Lord
and DR.. Prentice, am now once more

SHE NEVER SAW A MARD1-GRAs

II have lived In New Orleans all my
life, and never have seen a Mardi-Gras.
From early childhood l have been
troubled with bad sight, and always de-
pended on my companions to inform
me of the subject, etc., and tell me
what was passing by. l had always to use
the strongest kind of opera glasses in
in addition to my eye glasses, procured
from the leading opticians, and yet /
never saw procession Of any kind to
my satisfaction, or near as well as other
people could, until the Menus process
sion of last week. | could then, for the
first time in my life, read all the signs
and posters, saw all the figures On the
fats and the minutest d. tail distinctly.
II could never see the music score
when seated at the piano, and could
not sing from a sheet of music when
any one else held it. / have passed
friends and acquaintance on the street,
never being able to distinguish
them. have sat in street car
and handed my fare to my husband
and did not know him. l could have
ridden all the way home with him. not
knowing who he was if he did not
speak. In fact, 1 could hardly men
ton the many instances of annoyance
my bad sight has caused. l
have tried leading occulists, and
got glasses from the first opti-
tons of the country. I have un.
derwent constitutional treatment, took
ever so many drugs. all to no purpose.
l finally resigned myself to my sad fate,
and thought Id make the best of it.
But at last l found perfect relief in
skillful treatment and application of
glasses by DR.. Prentice, and | shall
never know how to express my graft
tude for all he has done for me. He
has most certainly given me pair of
new eyes. MRS. ]. q. MILLER.
1912 st. Claude Street, n. o., La.
IN 1885 DR.. Prentice invented and
copyrighted mathematical system for
fitting spectacles or glasses which is,
undoubtedly, the most accurate of any
now in use. 1t is used in England,
Holland and France. DR.. Gardner, Of
Chicago, says it is the true principle.
DR.. Holmes says he has found it very
useful. DR.. Fitch, trustee of the
Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary, relies
on it almost exclusively. With this
system the most delicate and sensitive
eyes can be fitted with glasses so &C
curately that they are relieved of all
strain, and thus they soon recover their
lost strength. Spectacles fitted and
ground to order in this manner do not
change as ordinary glasses do, but they
wear for years and preserve the sight.

AN OPEN LETTER.
SALT LAKE CITY, June 21st, 1888,
l was born in the pretty little village
of Underwood, Devonshire, Eng
land, in the year 1892. I re-
NAMED at home and worked on
the farm until I was 10 years old.
The recollection of those early days are
very pleasant to me as life creeps on.
After leaving the farm spent fourteen
years. in the English navy. In 1872 !
came to America, and six years ago /
came to Salt Lake. The only blight TO
my life, especially my boyhood days,
when life should have been the bright
est, was Disagreement that was born
with, namely, cross.eyes. never will
know just how much difference it has
made in my lite, but l know it made a
great deal in my early days. I've been
cross-eyed &c years. On Monday of
this week DR.. Prentice Strengthened my
eyes in half a minute, without causing
me any pain. Even at my age am
proud to have straight eyes for the bal
ance of my days. 1 call at DR.. Prem
tees Office at the Continental Hotel,
Salt Lake City, nearly every day, and
have seen him do operations without
pain that are almost miraculous. 1t is
