WEIGH THIS VERY CAREFULLY

HOW much are your eyes WoTth? Au- thorities disagree, but it is safe to pre- sume that you wouldn't weigh the question one minute before you'd re- fuse any price that could be offered.
 Sight is priceless. Money cannot buy any pleasure that will compensate for its loss.
 A little help at the first sign of fail ure often prevents serious trouble. A little money spent for eye care when first needed may save much money and regret later:
 With right glasses-the kind we fit defective eyes may do effective service with comfort and safety. Weigh this question carefully. Will you save your eyes or your money or will you come to US and save both?

TRluMPHs OF MODERN SURGERY

Wonderful things are done for the human body by surgery. Organs are taken out and scraped and polished and put back. or they may be removed en- tircly; bones are spliced: pipes take the place of diseased sections of veins; antiseptic dressings are applied 10 wounds. bruises. burns and like injuries before inflammation sets in, which causes them to heal without maturation and in one-t third the time required by the old treatment. Chamberlains Pain Palm acts on this same principle. It is an antiseptic and when applied to such injuries, causes them 10 heal very quickly. It also allays the pain and soreness. Keep a bottle of Pain Balm in your home and it will save you time and money, not to mention the incon- Venience and suffering which such in iuries entail. For sale by all druggists.
