You can have mled and use at home.

Do you wear glasses? Are you a

Gle to me" A lady who used it says:
'eThe atmosphere seemed hazy with or
without glasses, but after using this
prescription for fifteen days, every
thing seems clear. L can even read fine
print without glasses" It is believed
that thousands who wear glasses can
now discard them in a reasonable time
and muldtudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to be
spared the trouble and expense of
ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of
many descriptions may be wonderfully
benefited by following the simple rules

MARRIAGE
LAW Held
TO Be VOID

Milwaukee. Jan. 2i-The Miscor-
sin eugenic law regulating the issuance
OF marriage licenses. was held uneon-
stitutional by Circuit Judge +. c.

Among other things the court says
the law which provides for a physi-
cian's certificate Of health, incmding
the Wasserman test, is violative Of the
rights secured by the constitution and
that 81 conflicts with religious liberty
because it tends TO hae marriages.
The court disagreed with the recent
rulings OF Attorney General Walter G.
owen. who held that the law did not
require the Wasserman test.
II the Wasserman test and others
are not applied" the court says, the
doctor giving the applicants a clean
bin Of health would place himself LA
Bile to the law against perjury, owing
TO his false statements and his license
would be subject to revocation"
The court praised the intentions Of
the legislators in forming the law and
said II was an effort to permit mar
riages only where the prospective
bridegrooms weer free from all vene
real diseases. after all that can bs
done by medical science to determine
that fact has been done"
The law also is praised because o
its movement toward suppression o
sexual diseases, but is condemned be
cause its enforcement is practically al
impossibility
