NEWLY-INVENTED SPEC
TACLES: The arti-
ficial aid afforded to the thel importance! most
Sig ht by Lenses,
valu-
able gifts derived from science, anditisin
is ono
e of o
that theadoption of Spectacles to imperfect vision, should be regu.
lated on proper principles. Messrs. S. and B. Solomons, 39, Al.
ideon :f
tabem arle-street , Piccadilly. opposite the York Hotel, and 76, King
William-street, Bank of England, having devoted their whole lives
to this branch of Science, and their long
extensive practice have
enabled them to invent Spectacle Lenses upon a new construction,
which have gained universal approbation. Immediately they are
Placed before imperfect vision, either by day or candle-light, that
miq and tininess which appear befcrethe eyes is at once removed,
every object becomes clear and distinct, so that the most
aged imperfect sight becomes bright and brilliant, and k
brought to its youthful, natural, and original state. Their
Invisible Operative Voice Conductor for deaf persons is not
the least perceptible nor more uncomfortable than having a piece of
wool in its place; they give immediate relief to old standing ex.
treme cases of deafness. Those valuable inventions have also gained
the Patronage of the Royal Family, and the unqualified approbation
of above four hundred of the principal members of the medical
profession, and numerous individuals of high distinction who have
been greatly benefited by their use.—No connexion with persons of
the same name. 39, Albemarle street, opposite the York Hotel
