Vallery-Radot eyes Swimming, motoring and other outdoor activities often cause even the strongest eyes to burn and become bloodshot. When this occurs, apply a few drops of s o o t hi n g, cooling MURINE. Almost instantly the burn~ ing sensation will disappear, and before long your eyes will be dear and bright again. Millions of bottles of MURINE are used each year to soothe and beautify eyes. Many persons make a practice of cleansing their eyes with it daily. A month's supply costs but 60c.
