VISION'S VALUE.

Ged vision is a commodity you can. not purchase. If your eyesight is not perfect, you should make every effort to improve it. Glasses may be a neccessity; but this is a question you cannot decide for yourself. The advice of a Skilled Sight-Testing Optician is required. Our scientific Eye-Testing is thorough and we can detect the cause of the eye trouble or the slightest defect of vision. CHINESE OPTICAL CO. 7
