there is every reason to belieae it
certainly should be made an event
long to be remembered in Seward.

COMMON WITCHHAZEL
FINE FOR SORE EYES
It is surprising how quickly eye in
flammation is helped by common
witchhazel, camphor, hydrastis, etc.,
as mixed in Lavoptik eye wash. One
elderly lady, who had been troubled
with chronic eye inflamation for
many years, was greatly helped in two
days. We guarantee a small bottle
of Lavoptik to help ANY CASE weak,
strained or inflamed eyes. Aluminum
