ONE of the greatest blessings of the present age comes to us in the form of an eye tester, which is termed the ophthalmoscope, an instrument designed expressly to get perfect adjustment of spectacles or eye glasses to the hu- man eye. MT William Kirk has, at quite an expense, procured this instru- ment, by which, in an incredible short time, he can fit the eye perfectly, and at no further expense than the usual price of his spectacles. Instead of pay ing from three to five dollars for med ical examination, then adding the price of the spectacles, making bill of from five to ten dollars, 8 person can without cost (except for the lenses) go to MI Kirk and be fitted perfectly, either in convex, concave or cylindrical lenses. All the phases of disturbance in the vision either persbyopia, hyperopia, myopia or astigmatism is at once cor. rected by this finely adjusted instru ment, and it is remarkable how quickly it can be done, and what is more it car be done with greater precision by this instrument than in any other way.
 There is an absolute law about it g: inAe1ible as any other law of mechan ism. We advise all to see this simple yet positively remarkable instrument Mir Kirk's place of business is the old established, reliable jewelry store Camps block, West Winsted. m24-8v
