Doctor Tells How to Strengthen Eyesight 50 per cent In One Week's Time In Many Instances

A Free Prescription You Can Have Filled and Use at Home. Philadelphia, Pa. Do you wear glasses? Are you a victim of eye strain or other eye •weakness'' It so, you will be glad to know that, according to Dr. Lewis, there is real hope for you.4 Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored through the principle of this wonderful free prescription. One man suys, after trying it: "I 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. It was like a miracle to me." A lady who used it says: "The atmosphere seemed hazy with or without glasses, but after using this prescription for fifteen days everything seems clear. I can even read fine print without glasses." It is believed that thousands who wear glasses car. now discard them in a reasonable time and multitudes more will be able to 'strengthen their eyes so as to be spared tho trouble and expense of ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of many

TWINS THAT MAY lO BE SPLIT

lodking straight into my face to emphasize his ability in this line. "Can you wash dishes, too?" I asked *he other one. "No-o," he drawled out and then took a second thought, "but I could dry 'em." His eyes twinkled merrilly over the point he had made.

Two Handy Soys.

Now here's a pair of lively little boys that would convert any house into a home by their presence and moreover, they can "wash and dry dishes. Anybody knows that two people can wash dishes more quickly than one! Who wants them? Remember, they don't want to be separated!

Eva and Geneva! Sounds like another pair of twins, doesn't it! And they are. A pair of fine eleven-year-old girls, blue eyes and blond hair. "Would you want to go into a home without your sister?" I inquired of one of these, equally as unable to distinguish a difference in their looks as I was where the boys were concerned. "No, I don't want to go without her," she replied, and the two little girls wlit) have lived every minute of their lives together exchanged tender glances that held a meaning beyond words. "Where would ^ou rather live?'" the two of them were asked. "In the country," »iey chorused. Those Rose home children are "strong" for' home in the country which shows n very healthy state of mind. "Can you work, too?" This seemed

descriptions may be wonderfully benefited by following the simple rules. Here is the prescription: Go to Any active drug store and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets. Drop one Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of a glass of water and allow to dissolve. With this liquid bathe the eyes twp to four times daily. You should notice your ey^s clear up perceptibly right from the start an§ inflammation will quickly disappear. If your eyes are bothering you, even a little, take steps to save them now before it is too late. Many hopelessly blind might have been saved if they had cared for their eyes in time.

Note: Another prominent physician ±o whom the above article was submitted, said: "Bon-Opto is a very remarkable remedy. Its constituent ingredients are well-known to eminent eye specialists and widely prescribed by them. The manufacturers guarantee it to strengthen eyesight 50 per cent ir one week's time in many instances or refund the money. It can be obtained from any good druggist and is one of the very few preparations I feel should be kept on hand for regular use in'almost every family." The New Central Pharmacy sells it.

to be one of my stock questions for the occasion. "Yes, we can work," one of them informed mej "We can sweep and dust and wash ^Qishes."

So here's a fine pair of girls for somebody who prefers girls to boys. Now I might tell you about Raymond, nine, an exceptionally bright lad whose little twin sister Rachel was taken Into a home last year. This is one of the few cases were twins have been separated at the horpe. But a good home was found for Rachel and the folks didn't care to adopt the boy.

Raymond's eyes are big, blue, round .ernes that miss nothing. He has a splendidly shaped head, crammed full of ideas of his own. He has had a number of double promotions in the Rose Home school. "What do you want to do when you grow up, Raymond?" was asked of this lad.

He thought for some little time and the following were suggested to him to aid him in making a choice doctor, lawyer, farmer, merchant. "I like the farm," he said. "I want to be a farmer."

Little Louise is eight. Her twin sister died some time ago. But Louise isn't looking for a home. She thinks the Rose orphanage is the best place to be found in the world and she said she was willing to live there the rest of h*sr life. Louise is a little dish washer, too, but she prefers to wash them at the home. She said there was i so many children at the home to play with that it would be too lonesome to leave them "I like Miss Kees (McKee, the school principal), better than any body," she said looking at her teacher, and it begins to look as if the teacher would have to adopt het.

Anyhow this question of splitting I twins Is an important one that perhaps most of us have never thought anything about.

TURNIP CROP BLASTED.

Farmers Say Dry Weather Has Practically Ruined It. Farmers of Vigo county and surrounding territory have suffered a loss of practically the entire crop of turnips this season, amounting to hundreds of dollars, it was learned Thursday. Adverse weather conditions, it was explained, was responsible for the loss of the crop. The dry feather of the summer has'left the turnips hard and unedible.

According to L. H. Mahan, fruit grower and farmer, livihg on the South Seventeenth street road, the turnip crop in Vigo county, as a rule, was not large, but most of it this year had been spoiled. "Ordinarily an acre of rich bottom land will yield from five hundred to one thousand bushels of turnips," said Mr. Mahan. "But the lack of rain last summer has left the turnips in an unedible condition."

Vigo county's sweet potato crop will hardly measure up to the average yearly yield, according to Mr. Mahan.
