I'm returning from a three-day fair where I offered the opportunity to
demonstrate some principles of the Bates self-treatment for the cure of
imperfect sight.

Three children could go from the second to the fifth line of the
Snellen chart in a matter of minutes without glasses.

Then I asked them to check again the chart with thier glasses on, and
then again without the glasses.

All of them had to tell that once the glasses were put on and then off,
the chart became blank.

I asked: What do you think, are the glasses injurious?

Of course all had to admit that it was so.

But since their parents were there, all of them went away with their
glasses on, for fear of they scolding them.

Now I wonder if the ophthalmologists have any knowledge of these facts.

Because, if they do not know these facts, they are idiots and
ignorants.

If they do know them, then they are just criminals. I have no other
name to call them.
