Dr T ALBERT JONES
Eyesight Specialist at the Palmer
House McCook
ENGLISH AND WELSH SPOKEN
From the Northern Illinois College of Opthal
mology and Otology
People of McCook and vicinity just
one brief message about your eyes and
myself If you have ailing eyes you
need me and I need you but I am not
here to take your money without giving
an equivlent in good big eye-sight-saving
value increased eye comfort
perfect eye ease and entire satisfaction
We all know 1 acknowledge it with
regret and shame for my beloved profes
sion there are some unscrupulous
traveling men who take the peoples
money and oft times their eye sight
Others who work inestimable harm to
this priceless organ are the located
men in the city or town who ignorantly
fit strong harmful lenses which only
serve to weaken and destroy eyesight
rather than preserve it This latter
class may be honest often are but
but still work great harm to the eye be
cause they fail to realize the truth of
that old saying A little knowledge is
a dangerous thing These empirical
and haphazard methods of fitting glasses
are responsible for much of the present
day eye trouble No person should
wear glasses unless prescribed by one
thoroughly acquainted with anatomy
physiology disease of the eye laws of
light and science of optics
Dr Jones improved method of eye
examination and flitting glasses and
the wonderful relief afforded thousands
in his twenty years practice is little
less than marvelous in results By the
proper application of lenses without
the use of medicines he corrects all de
fects of visiom such as Hypermetropia
Myopia Presbyonia and those nerve
and sight destroying ailments Astigma
tism Heterophoria and Strabismus
