| Wheeling, March 3lst 1865.
! Ihave examined Prof Bernhardts very com
plete assortment of Spectacles and lenses They
are better adapted than any I have before seen
! to remedy the imperfections Of vision, that can
be benefited by the use Of Spectacles The pure
ness and cearness Of the glass or crystal used Ia
an item worthy of special attention I recon-
cheerfulness to the patronage of the public.
JOHN FRISSELL, N. D.
Wheeling ". Va, March 81, 1865
This is to certify that have examined a great
variety Of Glasses manufactured by Prof NJ
Bernhardt, of New York, and in Justice to the
Professor, must say that his Glasses are of very
superior quality, adapted to meet the wants Of
almost every eye, where the vision is in any way
imperfect.
The Professor selected for me pair Of plano
convex Glasses that were Of very superior work
manship and quality, rendering vision very dis
tinct, almost as perfect as in youth. I yield
this testimony in favor of the Professors Glass
es very cheerfully. A. s. TODD, N. D.
Wheeling, March 3lst, 1865
Ihave examined Prof NJ. Bernhardts Specta
cles and Glasses, Crystals, etc., and have great
pleasure in recommending them to those desiring
good Glasses. They are made of the best mate
hal and in scientific style. The Professor Is EN-
inently capable of adapting Glasses to suit the
eyes Of any who may apply to him, and conf
IDENTIFY recommend him to public patronage
Prof NJ. Bernhardt is a thoroughly educated
physician. E. A. HILDRETH, NJ, D.
Wheeling, March 81, 1865
The Spectacles of Prof Bernhardt are manu-
featured according to approved scientific princ
Piles, and in the most artistic style, and show him
TO be an intelligent and skillful optician. The
frames are so constructed as to be nicely adjust
ed to the nose and face which In itself is no tri
fling recommendation, and the use Of crystal in
stead Of glass, (Which vastly more cleal
than glass, is also much harder snd there
fore less liable to be broken or scratohed) gives
them great superiority over ordinary spectacles
l therefore respectfully recommend Prof. Bern
glasses as one who is evidently proficient iu
both the science and art of his profession.

Wheeling, W. Va March 30, 1860
We have examined the lenses of Prof II
Bernhard and consider them superior to any
| we have ever seen. They are admirably adap
ted not only to improve the imperfection of i'm
/ -. e
ion which constant study produces. Many Of
the Glasses are OF new and ingenious contri
vance We cordially recommend the Professor
to all those who require scientific optical assist
ance. JORNC HUPP, NJ. D..
