ing say they have had their eyes re-
stored thru the principle of this won
derful free prescription. One man
says, after trying it: II was almost
blind; could not see to read at all.
Now I can read everything without
any glasses and my eyes do not water
any more. At night they would pain
dreadfully; now they feel fine all the
time. 1t was like a miracle to me-" A
lady who used it says: 1.-The atmos-

glasses, but after using this prescrip-
ton for fifteen days everything seems
clear. 1 can even read fine print with

sands who wear glasses can now dis
card them in reasonable time and
multitudes more will be able to
strengthen their eyes so as to be spared
