"TTISION is justly described cs the most V important of our senses, It is therefore of the utmost importance that when the help of spectacles is felt to be necessary, great j care Bhould be taken in the selection of them, os only too frequently the haphazard plan in which they are chosen is attended byserious consequences, It bus teen proved beyond d.ubtthiitno loudly puffed cheap Spectacles enn be of any special service to Bny one. There is great skill required in making lenses of fine optical gUss or Biazilian pebble, but there is still more skill required in suiting the spectacles to each particular person's requirements. How can this skill, which is only to be acquired by knowledge, combined with practice, fee possessed by every watcbmakei, jeweller, or ironmonger who buys a dczen pairs of spectacles and writes jp that he is an Optician ? Ri member that a pair of spectacles which exactly sui>s one person woi-ld in a very short time elmost blind another. The special attention devoted by me to the study of adapting glusses to suit the sight, enables me to eneuie an accurate fit. It is my intention of visiting New Plymouth for a few days only, when I hope those requiring glasses will avail themselves of tbe opportunity of obtaining them. The largeßt and finest stock of pebble and other spectacles and eye-glasses in the colonies.
