SKILLFUL TESTS
For Defective Parker, the
Opticfan-Free Tests.

For Defective Observation-Disclosures the
OPticfan-FreeT Tests.
Mr.. Clarence M. Parker, the optician, has
permanently located his Office in Bristol 6
Sons shoe store, s54 Chapel street, where
all needing eyeglasses or spectacles can have
their eyes tested free of charge and obtain
the requisite glasses most suited to their re-
spectiEe eyes. Mr.. Parker can be depended
upon to accurately test the eyes in skillful
manner and by the most scientific methods,
having thorough preparation therefor by
course of study with the julius King Optical
company, with special instruction from the
renowned oculist and optician, DR.. Julius
King of Cleveland, O., which has been sup
plemented by subsequent practical expert
ligent study to the subject of the human eye,
its diseases and the impairments
and defects to which it is
subject, and is a thorough,
practical optician and a reliable gentle
man whose painstaking and intelligent OBJ
servation in each case and knowledge of the
practical side of his profession well enable
him to give the best results. He carries
large stock of all manner of glasses required
in his line. including even such as are re-
quisite in peculiar cases of defective sight
which are infrequently met with and has
also the requisite appliances 1of complete
investigation of each case. AS he makes no
charge for testing the eyes those who avail
themselves of his services are saved consider
able expense, while they receive the glasses
most6tted to improve'and benefit the sig ht;and
owing to his connection as agent
for the sale of julius Kings I'M
surpassed spectacles and eyeglasses he fur
nishes the very best goods and does SO at
prices which are less than those customarily
asked. This fact would impress upon all
who require the best services in eye-testing
and the best goods as we'll. The public are
asked to watch for his testimonials, which
speak of his ability, skill and character in
the most satisfactory terms. A number of
our most prominent citizens have already
availed themselves of his services.

entertainments.

Last evening good sized audience was
in attendance at the New Haven Opera
House to witness Viola Aliens portrayal of
| drama ''Talked About" What plot there is
to the play depends upon the copy of will
| in which one Martin Granger inherits the
| whole of his fathers fortune providing his
| brother dies leaving no issue. There is a
child who is placed in an insane
| asylum by her uncle Granger, who
| then announces her death. She escapes
| from the asylum and is sheltered from the
| storm by one Christopher Cross, who, to 81
| lence the gossips, says she is his sister.
Dame Rumor, however, finds out the fact and
proceeds to talk about it to much effect.
| The Rev. Silas Baldwin discovers striking
| resemblance to his daughters features in the
| face of the poor girl and on taking her case
up and encouraging her to remember all she
can of her early life shows her picture of
his daughter, who is recognized beyond a
| shadow of doubt by Florell as her mother.
Miss Allen in the title role is excellent,
giving evidence Of much careful and pains
| taking study; her acting when her protector
| is wounded in rescuing her, at the close of
| the second act, being particularly good, clio
| iting applause that called her before the
| curtain. Mr.. Leslie Allen as the Rev.
Silas Baldwin was the perfect
old New England parson whom
everybody loves, with all his
quaint peculiarities of speech and acting. The
"Abby Playfair" of Miss Florence Roberts,
''the down east gem in the rough" was a
good support to the other principals. Mr..
Hart Conway as christopher Cross" was a
little stiff in the first act, but before the close
of the play he acted as if he was the real in
diyidual he portrayed. The rest of the COM
pany were good in their parts and the acting
of the whole company should insure full
houses at both the matinee this afternoon
