Your sight may never have been perfect hence you may not realize its deficien cies. CAN YOU SEE A LONG WAY? This is often a symptom of defective sight of the defect Long Sight, to be precise. DO YOU NEED MORE LIGHT? This is one of the symptoms of old sight which af fects most people over 40 years of age. HOW NEAR DO YOU HOLD YOUR THINGS ? If you need to hold things nearer to your eyes than 14 inches, your eyes are probably wrongs ' . r WHICH EYE WORKS? One of your eyes may be more powerful than the other! That is why if you wear any Glasses you should have them specially adapted to your own particular needs. i DOES YOUR HEAD ACHE? Are you troubled with headacheparticularly to ward the end of the day ? Many of the most rack ing headaches are caused by eyestrain correct Glasses are the only permanent remedy. ARE YOU EVER DIZZY ? P Dizziness or Vertigo sometimesSiappens in acute cases of eyestrain. ARE DISTANT OBJECTS DIM? This is a common sign of defective sight. DOES SMALL PRINT "BLUR"? In reading your newspaper or book do the letters "run into one another." . This indicates thai your sight is wrong. DO YOU HABITUALLY FROWN? A habit of knitting the eyes together is onef the consequences of eyestrain. It is v an attempt of ten unconsciousto concentrate the vision. HAVE YOU EVER STRAINED A MUSCLE? If so, you know how painful it is. The only cure is rest. Eyestrain is strained eye-muscles, and the only way to rest them is to remove the cause with compensating Glasses. DO YOUR EYES EVER ACHE? Aching or smarting is only possible in defective eyes. So long as they remain perfect, they cannot ache. ARE YOUR EYES WAGE EARNERS? j Is your occupation one which demands keen vis- ion i it so, mat is an unanswerame argument in favor of caring for it now, so that the progress of any existing defects may be arrested. CAN YOU BE OVER-ANXIOUS ? In view of all the blessings of good vision, is it pos sible to be too careful of it? If your sight is per fect, so much the better but while you remain in doubt, you may be laying up future regrets. WHY DO YOU HESITATE ? Surely you now realize that you know very little as to your eyes condition. We can tell you after testing why not come now. ARE WE CAPABLE? Our equipment is of the most modern kind. Our experience has been long and varied, and has fitted us to deal with .the many forms of Optical Defects. IS OUR ADVICE UNBIASSED? We could not afford to risk our reputation upon anything but the strict truth. More than that, if we advise the wearing of Glasses, we prove to you the reason why they are necessary. WHAT IS THE COST? If Glasses are found necessary what will they cost? Our prices vary (according to lenses and frames needed); but are very reasonable. For many years they have served you well do they not deserve a little care? Then there is the question of preserving the sight for the future isn't this a sufficiently grave matter to induce you to take care? It Is Time You Attend to YourEyes For many years they have served you well do they not deserve a little care? Then there is the question of preserving the sight for the future isn't this a sufficiently grave matter to induce you to take care? SOME WONT ADMIT even to themselves the possibility that their eyes may have become defective ; but surely it is better to investigate the state of the sight scientifically, and thus to be enabled to avoid the serious conse quences in which neglect may result- MAN MAY WORK and by his skill build up a reputation so that he is termed "a good man," He may work long and well so that his eyes suffer somewhat from the strain; should he then thoughtlessly neglect these early troubles, his sight will inevitably become SERIOUSLY DEFECTIVE and the quality of his work must undergosteady deterioration. Thus the reputation of a lifetime may be ruined in a very short time perhaps nev er to be regained. Yet if the worker would only care for his sight not waiting until serious symp toms develop this loss' of earning power would never take place. STRAINING THE SIGHT EVERY DAY There are some occupations which impose an es pecially heavy tax upon the eyes; and workers un der these circumstances should be especially care ful to preserve their vision, especially as they arc directly dependent upon it for the earning of a livelihood. DANGEROUS TRADES A "black list" of occupations dangerous to the eyes would certainly include all industries demanding close attention (particularly in poor light). Here are some kinds of employment which aggravate eye-defects: Needlework Henchwork in Factories Drawing and Painting Clerical Work. HEADACHE - i is now becoming known as usually a result of strained eyes. Almost invariably, when suitable Glasses are obtained, ir permanently disappears. OUR EXPERIENCE IS YOUR SECURITY In an eye-difficulty, get our advice; we can help you, if anyone can. Every ca.c rrceive the same careful attention ir respective of hew much or how little you intend to spend. We do our utmost evr ry tizna, and gord results are guaranteed. .
