RICHMOND. Va, March 6, 1866.
We have examined The Lenses OF Professor NJ Bern
hard and consider them superior to any have ever
seen.
They are admirably adapted not only to improve the
imDerfecions of impaired sight, but to relieve the
WEAKNESS of vision which constant study produces

vance. We cordially recommend the Professor to all
those who require scientific optical assistance.
