glasses, but what shape and form and de-
gree was the question. Opticians were
tried in vain could not afford to send
her away to be treated and was forced TO
do the best 1 could in this vicinity. She
was nervous, irritable and cross and could
neither sew by day nor read by night.
About two years ago while she was on a
visit to Omaha she read local article in
the Bee relating the case of woman in
that city and the successful adoption of
glasses to her sight by DR.. Seymour. She
lost no time in going to see him, as the
description of the woman's case seemed to
fit my wife exactly. To her surprise she
learned that there was no puzzling feature
whatever about her defect. DR.. Seymour
had had similar cases in his experience not
once, but hundreds OF times. To make a
long story short. she received glasses from
him and new world was opened up before
her. Struggling as she had been for years
with partial blindness, you can imagine her

prescribed.
"Oh. yes: I'm friend of Or. Seymour,
and a stanch one, too. He knows his busl-
ness and am glad he finds time to devote
brief period to Houston. He is public
benefactor and with his skill. his charges
are within the reach of all who are willing
to pay for value received, and considering
the character of the work he does. his many
friends and patrons here will be more than
pleased with his visit
This is the general verdict of all who
know DR.. Seymour here and the splendid
record he has established In Omaha as
noted from time TO time by his home
papers.
