Anatomical and opticaIy considered, which includes the natural and anne thrope eyes, the various defects tO which it is liable and the proper ad- justment of glasses for their correction and relief. We have a thorough knowl- edge of lenses both simple and com- pound, their action on rays Of light and the laws that govern their adjustment. The use of glasses was an accidental discovery. Their adjustment is today on a higher plane. which is controlled by the unvarying laws of mathematics. Weak eyes, crusty eye lids floating black spots, cross eyes, watery or blurred eyes, dim vision, headache and all muscular ailments of the eye, can be cured with glasses properly ground and adjusted.

NOW
Is the Time to Have That
 Watch Fixed

Repairing a watch of the finest workmanship is a branch of our busi- ness that we give special attention to-. Our repairing department is conducted with the utmost care and skill Every watchmaker can't fix a broken watch; he may patch it up, but he must be a skilled mechanic to effect a permanent cure. We are proud to say that we don't know what it is to do inferior or second grade work. Bring in your watches, clocks and jewelry and have them made like new. We also mend broken china and bric-a-brac.
