Hello my friends...you know ,I am an old man ,I can not read any small writing without my glasses.

Yesterday I bought a new shirt It was packed as usuall,,,I took off the nails attaching the shirt to the cartoon,then I noticed a small paper attached to the shirt with very small letters( which I can never read without my glasses).Unfortunately I forgot my glasses in the office.

Can you tell me how can I read this paper?without going anywhere.

Notice:I have no Magnifiers at home.

Fill a glass container with water and look through it at the paper

With one of the nails or pins, punch a hole through the cardboard and look through it to read the paper. The hole will work as a lens.

Imhere got it right as i think

Nemo's idea is a good one... but i will go for an easier way... i will ask someone else with me at home to read it for me... The OP doesnt say the man is alone...

1. u may use small water drops placed over the text... which will act as lense...

2. Or u can place a water drop over a transparent solid like a plastic sheet or glass and use it as a lense..

Both will work for sure..

But if he just opened the package, and cannot go anywhere, how can you get water if he's not near the sink? Or, can you just not go anywhere out of your house.
