Mr.: J. TOBIAS Dear Sir--I am happy to say
that the Spectacles which obtained from you last
week are entirely satisfactory. From an Unequal
lily in the visual range Of my eyes, l have hereto
fore found great difficulty in getting glasses Of the
state that, by the aid Of your optometer, this din
Guilty has been happily obviated that the glasses
You furnished me are decidedly the best adapted
TO ray eyes Of any have ever vet used.
Very respectfully, yours,
X. b. DRANE,
Rector Of st. James, Parish.
Department of Interior, May = 1885,
From natural defects and the unequal range Of
nay eyes, have been compelled to use glasses FOR
several years. l have tried different opticians
without obtaining glasses perfectly fitted to my
pairs especially for me, which l have found TO
serve me perfectly. BY the use Of his optorneter
he is enabled to adapt Glasses infinitely to the eye
I most cheerfutly recommend Mr.. Tobias to all
having occasion to useglasses, and bear my test.
Rony as to his skill as an optician.
