This is to certify that have examined great

Bernhardt of New York, and in Justice to the
superior quality, adapted to meet the wants Of
almost every eye, where the vision Ia 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 a. in youth. l yield

Wheeling March 81, 1866.
The Spectacles of Prof Bernhardt are manu-.
featured according to approved scientific princi-
pies, and in the most artistic STYLE and show him
to be an intelligent and skillful Optician. The
frames are 40 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 clear
than glass is also much harder, and there
fore less liable to be broken or scratchedD 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:
