BLIND PLEAD WITH INVENTOR
Liquefied Radium Helps to Restore
Sioht-May Be "Great
Discovery.

More than six thousand blind per-
sons, by deputy or directly through the
mails, have besieged Ethan I. Dodds.
the Pittsburgh inventor Of radium
screen "es," pleading piteously with
him to restore their sight.
Mr.. Dodds. with the aid Of llquefed
radium, did succeed some months ago
In improving If not restoring the vision
of q man who suffered peculiar visual
ailment that had made him blind. Talk
ing of that achievement, the inventor.
who already had spent two fortunes
experimenting along that line, said
he'd give all he could ever hope to pos
sess in this world If he could only
promise sight to few Of the blind who
had thus appealed to him. But. as yet,
he was "only on the edge Of a great
discovery" and could not without
many added qualities, hope to apply It
in any general way to the restoration
of sight.
Now Mr.. Dodds has received from
sightless sufferers more than six thou
sand pathetic appeals; some of them
accompanied by signed checks In blank,
saying: "Fill out for any amount you
choose. If you can give me back my
eyes."-Pittsburgh Post.

The prince Of Wales has endeared

There is q story about regiment
