NEW METHOD FOR
 TESTING THE EYES
 BY PROF. WOOLSEY

Frederick Woolsey the Optometrist who has been identified with the op- tical business for many years and who conducted parlOrss at 1133 Main street and was formerly head consulting spe- cialist with the Irving Optical Co.,, which had it's parlors on Fairfield Av- enue, has removed his parlors to the 1eWelry store of Max Buechler at AS Fairfield Avenue. Professor Woolsey has passed the Connecticut state board examination for opticians and is well qualified for his profession Pro- lessor Woolsey is introducing one of the most finished methods of eye ex- animation ever introduced into this city, but while new here it's efficiency has been tested in larger cities and more learned circles of the profession where 1t has been found to be the most superior method for discerning and correcting eye disturbances, de- fective vision and other optical dis orders. This new method is known as dynamic skiascOpy. There is no more of the hurling of questions at women and children by rapid fire ora tors causing the patient to answer one way or the other whether he is right or not. Thus a person is not able to comprehend, while he or she is exam ming his or her own eyes, when the correct lenses are before the eyes. This detecting of the disarrangement of the visicn should be left to a pro- fessional man who has made a care full stury of the eye and it's environ ments. In the new method, dynamic skiascopy, as practiced by Specialist Woolsey, he does the examining and he prescrioes and makes the glasses for you. He does not ask you ques- tions to set your brain in a Whirl. He has a method and instrument to de- tect the defect. Under these circum- stances you are provided with glasses that fit you when you are your normal self and not when you are disturbed by an irritating consultation. Dyna- mic skiascopy is the sane, sensible method and in every way is prefer able to the antequated methods of the ordinary Optician or eyesight special ist. Professor Woolsey makes every pair of glasses that he sells, does his own grinding of lens and passes the final inspection on them before hand ing over to the patient. His record while in this city speaks for itself Professor Woolsey invites the public to call and investigate his methods at As Fairfield Avenue.

PRETTY CLOSE TO ZERO
Coldest Snap of the Winter Promises to
 Pass Away Soon.

New York. Jan. 19.-A high pressure of limited area flowed in on a brisk northwest breeze last night and sent the mercury speeding down the tube. At 8 o'clock last night the silver pen Gil pointed to 13 degrees. Two hours later it had got down to 10 and at midnight it looked as if it might go lower before daylight. But the cold wave is not extensive enough to last long, and before the day is very old the temperature will start up again. The frigidity will be temporary and confined chiefly to New York, east ern Pennsylvania and a part of New England

Disputed Right of Way
 John H. Shipman purchased a piece of property in Noroton and put up a gate across a section of the property which the public had been accustomed to using as a way. The Selectmen take the stand that there is an actual right of way there and it is stated that sone of their number went to Noroton and took the gate down.
 Took an Overdose.
 An overdose of chforoform was un- doubtedly the cause of death of James J. McInerney, young Danbury hat ter. MT. McInerney had been suffer ing with severe pains in his head and had been in the habit of using chloro- form to subdue the pain, and although he was alone in his room until after death had occurred, the evidences seem to show that he was using the drug in the usual way, but that he probably used too much and the fumes tsupified him and finally suffocated him, causing death.
 Were They Bear Tracks?
 Harry Brown, the East NOrwalk hunter and trapper, discovered bear tracks last week while going the rounds of his traps. He followed them to the Saugatuck river, where he lost the clue. He immediately secured a twenty-eight pound trap, and expects to land MT. Bruin.
