Whatever can be pro vided by practical experience, what ever can be done by minute and com plex machinery, whatever may be yellded by careful and accurate test ing is at pour services the minute you enter my Institution.

My new method for Instantaneous sight testing; Is endorsed by the high, est 'medical authorities. Twenty-nine years experience in hand lug dificult cases ought to make some difference. Notwithstanding the modern methods employed In ex amlnlng the eyes, no extra charge Is made for this service. Glasses are so moderate In price that anyone can af ford them, and you can rest assured they will not be recommended if you do not need them.

"Sight Is, Priceless.. Glasses should tot be worn where no error of refrac tion exists, but where an error does exist they should be put on as soon as posible and worn constantly until the defect 'n cured. Wearing glassses once does not signify that they will always be worn. Ton can at any time (beforr the defect is cured) go back to the poorer vision If you bo deslro. The vision will not be poorer than It was before the glasses were worn, but will be more notlcable on account of having been acustomed to better vis ion.
