'Why, law bless you, I can't help It; J can
see go well with ray new spectacles it nit'citri
to nut new life In me. 1 actually feel tventy
years younger, cad 1 Hare had them only a
short time. You see, I did not bay when lr.
lost first came to Wichita : I thought I -nould
Just wait and let some others try. I hadpaid
out no mncn money lor spectacles, anu inyeyes
were getting poorer and poorer all the 8me,
that 1 bad about despaired of ever geitiagan)-
ining mat would stay me oreaaiui loss 01 azni.
liut when I came to see and tall with my mlirh-
bors, and with eopIe from other carts of the
country who bad used Dr. Yost's impnued
lenses (some of them for years) , I concluled 1
would try it onre more, and I am frank to con
fess they are far ahead of my exiiectatims.
Oh, yes. It's a bard country oa eyesight. ,A11
this western prairie country is much hardir ou
on the ejes than the eastern states, and one to
thiuk or it, it is as much out or place to try to
use the old style of spectacles here iu Kansis tx
It would be to try to farm with the old style or
fanning tools, and, sir, 1 don't hesitate lojs:
hat tbe man that wont go to J'r. 10,1 ant
fitted with a patrol his improved Ienes eight
to bate his self-binder and improved ilnws
taken from him, and be compelled to cnt his
grain with the old hand sickle and plowwith
Ihewooden-mouldboard plow."
It is just as important to use Improved lenses
proerly fitted, In order to save eyoslghtas it
Is to use the self-binder to sae grain ie this
western country.
No use talking, nothing short of Dr. Ton's
Improved sjiectacles will save the islou in this
