Mr. Britton had asked tha mnnril
to buy two Austin machines and on
March 24 secured the signature of the

changed hia mind before the matter
reached the council holding that one

Without the Use of
Drops or Drug's
Why take chances with your eyes?
My methods successful for twenty years are
more effective than those which have as their foun-
dation the use of drops or drugs. They will save
you time and money and what is even better dis-
comfort and perhapa injury.
There is no longer any use to hesitate about
having your eyes examined because you fear the
use of drops. Advanced optometry as I practice
it means better eye work with the positive elimi-
nation of drops or drugs in any form.
It is pleasant to believe your - eyes are serv-
ing you adequately and perhaps they are. But
you may have headaches or nervousness that
examination by a competent optometrist will
trace directly to eye-strain.
Ii you are already wearing ghtsses it is ad-
visable to have an examination occasionally
determine ' whether a change.-of lenses is
necessary.
In any event gou may depend upon these two
thing: I trill not me drug or drops and 1 will
reveal the absolute facts as they are.
