VISION is justly described as the most important of our senses, and its loss is ro- garded as one of the greatest aflistions to which mankind
subject.
It is, therefore, of paramount importmeo that we should carefully use our sight whilst perfort, and that when, unfortunate- ly,
the help of Spectacles in felt to be no- cessary, the atment care should be taken in the autoction of them.
The eminent Oculist, Dr. Soulbarg Wella, testified that he had no hesitation in stating that the
the haphazard plan of Belee. ting Spectacion-unplayed by some Opti ciana-as frequently attended by serinua conquences; that byes were often per manently injurel, which might, by skilful adaptation of glasses, have been proserved for genes.
