Why Don't You Have That Child's Eyes Tested 't It costs you nothing and it may save your child trom blindness. Many cases of sick headache and nervous diseases are caused by defecti e eyes. In school children perma nent injury to the individual's health is often done by making the children use their de fective eyes in close work at school A few dollars invested in glasses now may mean perfect vision and health for your child in the years to come or a few dollars saved may mean poor vision, perhaps blindness and perhaps permanent injury to the health. If you have a child that complains of headache, objects blurring the reading and running together, eyes feeling dry and a burning sensation after a short time at study, you may depend upon it that child is in need of glasses and you are falling short of your full duty if you do not at once have an examination made of their eyes. We are prepared at all times to make an examination and give you honest ad vice we tell you frankly whether it is glasses or something else that is needed. If it is glasses we can make a correct fit. It is the duty you owe to your children to see that their eyes are in proper con dition. It should be attended to at once. We are licensed optometrists. NEWHOUSE BROTHERS. i JEWELERS OPTOMETRY TS.
