 they gave me little, If any, permanent re- lief
 ''All the while I suffered intensely from neuralgia headaches dizziness and blurred vision. Often my eyes made me wakeful at night. My eyes were constantly wa tery. and the muscles were lax and inert. Some time since learned that Charles Lincoln Smith was here
