them particularly recommendable to those whose
merely optical impairment of the eyes are in want OF
such auxaries. consider, moreover, Mr.. Tobias
fully qualified to determine the focus of the eye both
by bis optical knowledge and experience, and by
state that Mr.. Tobias has supplied some of my pa
tents with Glasses, to their and my satisfaction.
