willingly bear my testimony in favor of the
superiority OF the Austrian Crystal Single

the best established and understood prin-
clples OF optics, and their adaptation to the
human eye i'll its different conditions of
vision, Is so perfect as to render sight

others should be used, since the ewes once
used to- these do not seem to grow old. and
by having focus at any point of the sur
lace. they appear to restore tie ewes to
their youthful cner ~
