without obtaining glasses perfectly fitted to my
eyes. -Four months since Mr. Tobias made two
pairs especially for me, which l have found to
serve me perfectly. By the use Of his optometer
he Is enabled TO adapt Glasses minutely to the eve

having occasion to use glasses. and bear my test-
mony as to his skill as an optician.
