How You May
Throw Away Your Glasses!

The statement is made that thousands
wear eyeglasses who do not really need
them. If you are one of these unfor-
tunates, then these glasses may be
running your eyes instead of helping
them. Thousands who wear these win
dows" may prove for themselves that
they can dispense with glasses If they
will get the following prescription filled at
once: Go to any active drug store and
get bottle of Optona; fill two-ounce
bottle with water and drop in one opto-
ma tablet. With this harmless liquid So
luton bathe the eyes two to four times
daily, and you are likely to be aston
ished at the results right from the start
Many who have been told that they
have astigmatism, eye-strain, cataract.
sore eyelids, weak-eyes, conjunctivitis
and other eye disorders, report wonder
full benefits from the use of this preserip
ton. Get this prescription filled and
use it, you may so strengthen your eyes
that glasses will not be necessary.
Thousands who are blind, or nearly SO,
or who wear glasses would never have
required them If they had cared for their
eyes in time. Save your eyes before 1t
is too late. Do not become one of those
victims of neglect. Eyeglasses are on
ly like crutches and every few years
they must be changed to fit the ever
increasing weakened condition, so better
see If you can, like many others. get
clear, healthy, strong, magnetic eyes
through the prescription here given.
