Eye, Head and NervouB Diseases, At Occident Hotel, Astoria, Prom November 9 to 14. FREE. Dr. Prentice "Will Cure the First Case Of Cross-Eyes and Epileptic Fits Free On the Day of Ills Arrival in Astoria. A man well known In this community writes the following interesting letter: "1 was chopping a stnmp four weeks ago, when a flying chip struck me In the eye; for a short time 1 was entirely blind. Then partial sight returned again. I nurtured nope and continued to treat it at home, until ten days 'ago, when I began to abandon hope of ever seeing perfectly again, unless some thing more than ordinary was done. I then counciled two of the leading Oculists of Portland, who told me one eye would have to be cut out to save the other. It did not exactly suit me to have my eye cut out, aud o I sought other council. I went to Dr. Prentice, the Oculist, then at Portland, and he laughed at the idea of its being neces sary to cut my eye out; I joined in the laugh, for it was on my side. 1 have been free from pain since the first day's visit to Dr. Prentice, and im proved steadily, and am now entirelv well again. I feel safe in saying that ff Dr. Prentice cannot cure a case he will always say so. Tiios. II. Poss, Gray's River, Wash. A Touching Scene Witnessed Bj a Portland Gentleman. One week ago we received an invita tion to witness a delicate surgical oper ation on an eye. '1 he patient was the 17-year-old daughter of Harrison Hay. For three years she had been blind in both eyes with a cataract, and was obliged to grope her way about in total darkness. The patient without taking chloroform, submitted to the following operation : fehe was now ready for the surgical part of the work, and we stood in breathless anxiety as Dr. Prentice placed the point of his knife at the side of the eyeball, carefully touched the point of the cornea, then the blade entered the eye; we saw it pass through the eye in front of the pupil and then come out at the opposite side. It was then drawn upward, and a cut made of about one-third of the circumference of the ball. Another instrument was then passed in back of the pupil, and almost on the instant the girl said: "Oh, Dr. Prentice 1 can see you." This was spoken in tones well calculated to bring tears to one's eyes. From the time the knife touched the eye until the patient could sec, it was just one min ute. She was allowed to sec those about her for a moment, then the eye was closed and bandaged. In jo.st one week after the operation she came into our office and was able to read our paper. She also wrote a letter home, saying; "Dear parents, 1 can see and am happy." Mr. Jerome W. Campbell, General Superintendent of the Willamette Uridgc Railway Co., saw this operation. A LETTER. From a Tatlent Who Was Cared By Dr. Prentice. Fortlaxd, Or., Oct. 7, 1830. To the Suffering: For five years 1 have suffered with sleeplessness, ner vous debility, irritation at the base of the brain, and a terrible kidney diseace. 1 had tried so many remedies that did me no good that at last 1 gave up all hope of ever being a well man again. I tried many prescriptions that were said to be sure cures, and all failed. There were many times during the past few years that I was obliged to lay off from work from two weeks to three months at a time. Lately 1 was run ning down in health very rapidly, and was alarmed. I contemplated leaving this paitof the country and trying to see it I could not get relief elsewhere. I must say that my faith in doctors was about gone; but something lead me to visit Dr. Prentice at the Esmond hotel. I crowded in with the others and waited my turn. He cxaminad me, told me where my trouble was, and said he could cure it without mndicine. I can't say that I really believed him, but something in his manner led me to trust him. He gave me -'o medicine at all, yet from the day of my first visit I began to impiove rapidly. I now sleep as sound as a child. My memory is greatly improved. 3Iy kidney disease and brain irritation arc entirely well, my appetite splendid, and 1 now enjoy life and perfect health. Any afflicted person wishing to learn about my case will find me at address below. D. Dooxak, Koith Pacific Hotel. Portland.
