FRAME FITTING. YOU look to the fit of your hat, your shoes, your clothes—but did you ever observe the FIT OF YOUR GLASSES? Is the frame too wide or too narrow for your face ? Does it fit your nose ? Do you look squarely through the centre of your lenses ? Small details, yes—but worth noticing if you want glass ease or comfort. With us all these things go to make the satisfied patient and the successful optician. ALFRED liEVI. CONSULTING OPTICIAN, 39 Lambton Quay, Wellington. T. H.
