DIAMOND SPECTACELES

These Spectacles are manufactured irsm "Mi-
nute Crystal Pebbles" melted together, and are
called Dia amOnd on account of their hardness and
brilliancy.
1t is well known that spectaces cut from Brazil
ian or Scotch pebbles are very injurious TO the eye
because of their polarizing light.
Having been tested with the polariscope, the dia-
mond lenses have been found 10 admit iitteen per
cent less heated rays than any other pebble.
They are ground with great scientific accuracy,
are free from chromotic alterations and produce a
brightness and dstnctness OF vision not before at
