Take Care Of Your Eyes.

Persons having tendency to
weakness of sight, or those expert
enclng unusual fatigue of the eyes
In reading, or similar occupation
requiring close vision, should re-
sort to the aid of glasses immedi-
ately. Nothing is gained by watt
ing and much may be lost. But 1t
Is important to have the right
kind of glasses. Do not buy them
of venders who have no knowledge
of optical science, but go to Hirsch-
field, the practical optician, who
will give you a pair Of glasses that
will suit you, whether your case be
weak sight, old sight, near sight or
astigmatism.
