 Prescott is visited periodically by peripatetic opticians. who, as q rule, travel through the country with a cheap grade of eye glasses and un- load them at fabulous prices. They, as rule, do a good business here, too. Geo. H. Cook, the jeweler, has just fitted up . room, at consider able expense, in connection with his jewelry store, which is used exclu- sively for optical purposes. He has complete set of instruments for measuring the eyes, in order to deter- mine accurately the particular lenses required, and the whole thing is in charge of O. A. Hesla, a practical and experienced optician. Mir. Cook wlll give the same quality of goods at about one-halt of the price charged by the travelling so-called optician, who very often knows nothing about the business Le pro iesses. Another advantage one has iu patronizing home industry in this respect, is that in case of a mistake one has the privilege of having it corrected, whereas, if the travelling opticians glasses, after few days use, are found unsatisfactory, the error cannot be corrected, \ very large percentage of people who wear glasses, require . different lense for each eye, This cSn be accurately secured by the system of measuring the eye at Mir. Cooks place. |
