Ihave examined Prof NJ. Bcrnhardt's 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
| rial 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 M. Bcrnhardt is a thoroughly educated
physician f. a. HlLDREIh' Nj, ID.
Wheeling March 81 1865.
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 constructed as to he 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 scratched gives
them great superiority over ordinary Sp.ftacles.
| / therefore respectfully recommend lrbt. Bern:
hardt to all whose eyes require the aSfi?tance OF
| glJsses as one who is evidently Tr1 iclent IN
both the science and art of his prolf 7I' m.
