Prof NJ Bernhardt is a thoroughly educated

Wheeling, March 81 1855.
The Spectacles of Prof Bernhardt are manu-.
featured according to approved scientific princi.
ples and in the most artistic style, and show him
to be an intelligent and skillful opticiau. The
frames are 40 constructed as to be nicely adjust,
ed to the nose and face which in itself Ia no tri-
fling recommendation, and the use OF crystal in
stead of glass, (Which vastly more clear
than glass, Ia also much harder, and there
fore less liable to be broken or scratched) gives
them great superiority over ordinary Spectacles.
/ therefore respectfully recommend Prof. Bern.
hardt to all whose eyes require the assistance OF
glasses, as one who is evidently proficient in
both the science and art of his profession.
