DR.. william e DOdd, the eminent

having been advised that nothing but
an operation would straighten them
People suffering with various forms of

by this eminent specialist. DR.. Dodd
has kept in touch with the rapid ad-

the condition of our eyes. Hundreds
have taken advantage of his offer here
to make free examinations, and have
had their eyes examined. More than
one hundred have been fitted with sat
