SpeetacIes.

It is hard to realize what our an
cestors did without the help of spec
tacles. The first mention of them
seems to be toward the end of the
thirteenth century, when convex spec
tacles were invented-4it is supposed
by Roger Bacon. Concave glasses
were introduced soon afterword, but
the Spectaclemakers Company of Lon
don was not Incorporated until 1880.
1t seems that the ancients knew moth
fng of these aids Of vision; and it is
more than likely that Homer and
even Milton might have been spared
their blindness had they understood
the use of powerful lens. Eye
glasses came In much later, when the
gpectacles were considered too cum
bersome for fashionable wear; and
lorgnettes came even later. when the
great ladies wished an ornamental
case for their eye glasses.
