TINE SCIENTIFIC METHOD. Positively the
only absolutely correct way to fit glasses.
(No DROPS used. Those who have been

anime eyes by the old, incorrect way, which is
done by everyone who supplies glasses but us,
will be agreeably surprised by our scientific
and wonderful method of examining eyes and
fitting glasses.
We correct your eye defects by lookidg in
the eyes, taking the exact scientific measure
ment of the focus and shape of the eyes.
NO QUESTIONS ASKED no trying glasses
on your face until we have determined your
exact optical error
The old tedious and tresome way of trying
to fit glasses is either putting drops in the
eyes, which often causes BLINDNESS, or by
trying on lot of glasses, and asking you:
"Can you see these letterS?' or ''Do these
glasses make you see BETTER"
After your Optician does a lot of guessing,
and has your eyes all out of shape, you think
you have been examined.
Think this over and you can readily see that
you have been doing your examination,
and that is no doubt the reason you have had
trouble to get your glasses correct
Many thousands of our patrons will endorse
every word you have read here.

Almina Cannon Packard, to whom
reference was made last week, was the
only daughter and youngest child of the
late Thomas Cannon, and belonged to
a family of eight children. We were
well acquainted with the whole family
during our younger days, and the names
of the seven sons, as they came along,
were: Orison, Elbridge, James D.,
Thomas c., William c., Ansel A, and
Charles. All these married, but none
had large families and two of them never
became parents. Two of the sons mar
ried sisters, daughters Of the late Horatio
Bisbee of Canton, and cousins of the
writer. One other son married another
cousin, daughter of the late David Bry-
ant of Hartford, and still another mar
ried our youngest sister, who died two
years later of consumption, and left no
family.
This family were all raised in Hart
ford, but later that part of the town was
set off into Canton. When visiting there
two years ago we had very pleasant in
terview with Mrs. Packard, who then
appeared in perfect health and as likely
to live another decade as any other per-
son of her age. In her death fell the last
leaf from the family tree. In regard to
her domestic matters we know but little
and therefore have said nothing.
For a while we have some new neigh
bors in the persons of Ralph Day and
family of Yarmouthville, who have
moved on to the place formerly occupied
by c. b. Brooks. The wife is an invalid,
and her physicians advice was to move
up here among the hills where she could
get pure air, and they have acted accord
ingly. They have five little children.
