Mr.. Edwald Hecker. teacher in
one of the schools Of Alpena, Mich,
had his eyes turned outwards, diver
gent strabismus, all his life. He call.
ed on DR.. Hartman at the Plankln-
ton Hotel in Detroit the other day,
and had that surgeon operate upon
them, and in an instant they were
straight and perfect. Mr.. Hedker
is gentleman of intelligence and
knew how TO appreciate the doctor
for his skill and experiences.
Mr.. Jacob Griffin, of Elmer City,
Sanilac county, Mich, had been
troubled with cross-eves (convergent
strabismus) for thrtytive years. DR..
Hartman Strengthened the eyes in
less than a minute, and that without
the least particle of pain. Mr.. Griffin
had another trouble in his other eye
that came from a slight accident
some years ago, which caused film
of thin skin (pterygium) TO grow
over his eye, and would have event
ually made him blind. DR.. Hartman
removed the pterygium also.
Mrs. Mary Amperse, so Pleasant
avenue, Detroit, Michigan, had her
eyes turned outwards divergent
strabisnus) for forty two-years, Civ
ing her a strange appearance. DR..
Hartman operated on them both in
less than a minute, and, without pain
both eyes were as straight as any
ones.
Mrs. James McCoy's daughter, Of
Porter street, little lass of twelve
summers, had the misfortune of hav-
ing her eyes crossed ever since she
was two years old. She went to DR..
Hartman, at the Planklnton hotel, and
had them Strengthened.
Mr.. w. Anderson, COG Twenty
fourth street, Detroit, was cross.eyed
from his youth. Six years ago, he
went to theiprincipal oculist of Pitts
burgh, Pa, and had his eye operated
on, but unfortunately the operation
turned the eye too far in the opposite
direction, giving him an outward
squint, which made HIM look much
worse than before the operation and
almost made his eye blind. He went
back 10 the same oculist to have the
mistake corrected, but the doctor
told him he was sorry to say it, but
the truth was now that it was too
late, as no operation could ever bring
it to its right place. Yesterday he
called on DR.. Hartman, who told him
he could bring it to its natural posi-
ton by double operation and a lig-
ature, and make it perfect. He told
the doctor to 60 ahead, which he
did, and IN two minutes, without
pain, the eye was perfectly straight.
Mr.. Anderson said the Pittsburg
oculist worked at his eye at least
half an hour, and the pain was terri
BILE, while DR.. Hartman's operation
was perfectly painless. Mr.. Ander-
son is delighted, and invites all
doubters to call at his house, 696
Twenty fourth street, Detroit.
Mr.. Frank Brockmiller, SOC Ma
comb street, Detroit, Mich, has been
suffering from convergent strabismus
(cross eyes) nearly all his life, and as
a consequence his sight became much
impaired. DR.. Hartman operated on
them without the least pain, and, to
use his own words, "they were
Strengthened before ] was aware of
it," His appearance as well as his
sight is greatly improved.
Miss Sc. Nixon, "a Stimson street,
Detroit, was greatly disfgured by an
eye that turned upwards towards the
nose. The sight of the eye, too, was
greatly impaired. DR.. Hartman ope-
rated on it and in less than half
minute it was perfectly straight and
sight much improved. She was de-
lighted. And well she might be;
than now there never was a prettier
face.
Mr.. S. K. Metcall, of Pike, Wis,
had crooked eye. strabismus, nearly
all his life, which greatly disfigured
his facial appearance. and caused
him for that reason to be anxious to
have the deformity corrected. Dr.
Hartman operated on the eye, which
is now as straight rs any eye that
was never crossed, and he is pleased
beyond measure.
Master Fred Brockmiller, (brother
of Mr. Frank Brockmiller) of 500 Ma
comb street, Detroit, also had squint
eye turned to the inner corner toward
the nose. After he had seen his big
brothers eye Strengthened he took
courage and had Doctor Hartman
operate OH his eye also. 1t did not
take quite half minute, but while it
did last the young man sat as still
and brave as soldier. A happier
boy never lived.
