jrGlasses, once the sign of old
QrmBiize. are now the sign of
common sense. In tfie days of the
old style double vision glasses, the
older people hesitated about wear
ing them because of the ugly con
spicuous kinds. Call at St. Helens
hotel Monday, January 26th, and
let Drs. Lowe & Turner show you
the new double vision glasses. They
look like a single pair yet serve the
purpose of two, thus enabling you
to see both far and near. They
make you feel young and do not
make you look old. Nobody knows
the conyenience of these double
vision glasses until they have worn
them. Come in and let us talk it
over with you. Scores of St. Hel
ens references.
