for me to get glasses that were salts

The Professor tested my eyes, discov-

any spectacle l could find there was
always discomfort with my eyes for
the reason that even if one eye was

evident one eye is. not fitted properly.

Arnold everything | could desire, and
after an extended trial am entirely
satisfied with them. We next visited
REV. E. S. WILSON, D. D., Pro-
fessor of Greek and Hebrew in the
Seabury Divinity school, who said:
"The spectacles which DR.. Arnold
furnished me rave proved satisfactory.

invariably been necessary in from six
to twelve months to change the lenses

total blindness would be the result. l
could not understand why the learned
and able specialists that l consulted
could not give me relief. The men

even to members of my own family,

EDWARD c. BILL, d. D., Professor
of Liturgics in Seabury Divinity school,
said: 81 am happy to say to you that
the three pairs of spectacles which
Professor Arnold has arranged for me
are decided success. He is indeed
an expert in ascertalning and adjusting
what optical gentlemen callthe pupilary
distance. | have never had so much
comfort since | used lenses. l shall
remember him constantly. O of
my associates in the theological faculty
who called upon HIM appears to be
equally well pleased"
MRS. ANsoN L. KEYEs, wife of the
well known lawyer, kindly consented
to be interviewed concerning Prof
Arnold and his glasses. Mrs. Keyes
said: 81 always supposed 1 had the
best of eyesight but was subject to ter
rible headaches from the time 1 was
sixteen years of age. When I was
thirty five the most noted oculist of
the northwest prescribed glasses to
correct aStigmatlsm which entirely re-
lieved my headaches for years and of
course was greatly benefited. l also
procured glasses from another noted
eye specialist who finished his medical
education in Europe. So you see 1
have had what certainly ought to be
very skillful service for my defective
eyes. 1t remained for Prof. Arnold to
adapt glasses which are superior be-
yond comparison to all the others and
which are simply perfect. As lule l
am averSe to having my name in
print, but, if l can in any way assist in
alleviating the suffering of others, and
by referring them to Prof. Arnold have
them see as l can now see and be re-
lieved as | have been by his wonder
full skill, | am entlrely willing to do SO.
Do | think him SO very skillful? Well
he has been here now about ten weeks
and has corrected the eyes of a large
number of my most intimate friends
and you will find that we are all very
enthusiastic in regard to his work.
Good eyes are precious and ours are
better and we see better than ever be-
fore" Our next interview was with
Mrs. M. ]. STowELL, an old resi-
dent of Faribault, and her daughter,
Mrs. l.. M. Mead, who were among
the first to call on DIR. Arnold. Mrs.
Stowell for years has not been able to
get glasses to suit her and on examina

pronounced to be astigmatism. After
