To persons who have had the sight ofheir ey es SO
impaired as to require the use of Glasses, would
recommend Mr. John Tobias a suitable person
from whom To obtain such Glasses as they may re-
suire, as he has suited with pair of Spectacee
for a far and near sight NV sight has been impaired
very much by a service Of years in the Post Office
Department. which berth required me to be on duty
from u O'Clock at night till after day, during which
time used but one light. w. A. WALKER,

eyes, have been compelled 10 glasses for seve-

months since MIR. Tobias made two pairs especially

By the use OF his Optoneter ne Is enabled to adapt
