IT'S YOUR
Hundreds of men and women suffer untold hard
ships and pain without knowing the cause. Of no
comfort to themselves or others, enjoying nothing,
they are in constant distress. They resort to
medicine without relief.
Headaches, stomach ailments, indigestion, brain
fag, and other disorders are often directly traceable
to improper vision. If your eyes are at fault, and
this cause is not removed, you cannot be cured
permanently.
If you "suffer without apparent reason, if your
nerves are unstrung, look to your eyes! Correcting
them may tone up your health, giving you new life
and vigor.
My 35 years experience in eye examinations and
correct fitting of glasses assures you of an unex
celled quality of service. I guarantee satisfaction
in every respect '
I use no drugs, as drugs aro dangerous.
I exchange your glasses, whin necessary, for one
year free of charge, '
, During my 8 years in Salem I have issued over
25,000 prescriptions in .; Marion and Polk counties
among them are 1500 children.
