SIGHTand HEARING—PATRONIZED
by their Majesti-s, the King and Queen of Hanover,
and their Royal Highnesses the Princesses Augusta and Sophia,
her Serene Highness the Princess Esterhazy, the Princesses Mary
aid Ito.sa her Grace the Dowager Duchess of Bedford, and their
Graces the Dukes of Devonshire and Manchester.
Messrs. S. and B. SOLONIONS, Opticians and Aurists, during a
professional experience of thirty years, have had ample op: ortu-
r'llies of verifying that the Organs of &gilt and hearing are sym-
pathetically related to each other in such a peculiar manner, that
when the former becomes imperfect, the sense of hearing becomes
rapidly dull—this fact is admitted by Scientific Authorities, and
mist be observable by many thousands of individuals thus circum.
!.I,',lleed_which is deserving the Public's most serious attention.
The Messrs. Solomons, with a view to remedy such an affection, and
after they have devoted their whole lives to this interesting branch
.f.
science, have succeeded in effecting, for Imperfect Vision, a most
ie.entific improvement in a Transparency for Spectacles, and a Pre-
!titive and Cure for Deafness ; they have invented an Operative
Voice Conductor, upon a very small construction, not perceptible ; it
!Nuires no holding, and the individual immediately becomes one of
reparty in the general conversation. By these important disco-
'eries not only is defective Vision brought to nature, but the sense
Of
Hearing is restored to its original acuteness ; those lenses are so
ecnstructed and adapted to weak and imperfect eyesight, upon such
scientific principles, combined with the long extensive experience of
the Messrs. Solomons, that they will be found to effect an
extent of relief which will far exceed their utmost and most san-
.9ine expectations. On placing those lenses before imperfect Vision,
either by day or candle light, every object becomes clear and dis-
tinct, and the most minute particle seen with exact distinctness.
t,'le Messrs. Solomons have in their possession, WITHOUT ONE
EXCEPTION, Spectacles and Ear Instruments of every kind, which
are offered to the Public by other individuals, to paint out the su-
periority of their improvements over all others. The patronage of Nobility and Gentry, and recnmmendationsof the principal Oculists,
_teiysicians, and Surgeons in London, and through Great Britain, as
w II as on the Continent, would be too numerous for insertion.
ihe Messrs. Solomons are anxious that the public should not con-
round them with persons of the same name, it being admitted by
Professional gentlemen of the highest character, and may be ob-
served by any individual, that their newly-invented Spectacles ani
operative Voice Conductors for deafness, surpass anything of the
xind yet put beforetbe public, they request attention to the first part of
