HEADQUARTERS FOR The fitting of spectacles or eyeglasses is purely a mechanical science, requiring a thorough knowledge of refraction and the eye, the aim being to correct defor mities of the eye, which are nearlv al ways congenial. The real science of the work lies in the scientist’s ability to measure to an exact nicety the errors of refraction existing on account of these deformities. To make these corrections we use commonly three kinds of lenses, viz: Spheres, cylinders and prisms. Using these lenses separately and in combination with each other there can be made more combinations—all of which are absolutely : necessary—than are words .in the English language This should prove to the average thinker that there should be no such thing as guess work, and that it cannot be done by the old-fashioned “cut and dry” system of mechanics. Therefore, when your op tica n or oculist encourages you to buy from him by telling vou if they don’t fit he will “change them.“ you at least have cause to lose confidence in his ability as a refractionist, for the scien tific fitting of glasses is farther from the “cut-and-try” system than any other known science, and if he cannot fit you the first time what assuracce have vou that he can eyer do it? He proves once that he is guessing at it. Dr. A. T. Roberts has a thorough knowledge of everything partaining to the eve, and has all the latest scientific instruments necessary for the most in tricate examinations, and guarantees his corrections to be as perfect as can possi bly be made through artificial refrac tion. He particularly solicits a call from those who have tried iti vain to get per. feet work in this line, Examination free at the Tillamook Hotel in 1 his city.
