EYES SCIENTIFICALLY CORRECTED
' There are thousands of pairs, of correctly fitted glasses In and
around Salem. ; I know they are correctly fitted, for 1 did the work
myself. There Is no guesswork about it! x ,4;r

and I take pride in fitting each' and every pair correctly. ,
The-necessary skill to achieve such . results can be acquired
only by years of close study and . active, f practical experiene. In
fact, scientific knowledge of the highest order is required to recognize
and properly correct defects of vision. - . , , ? . . ,, ;

satisfaction, they will be changed free for a period of one year. Phono
