Having been tested with the polarscope, the diamond lenses have been found to admit fifteen per cent, less 1 heated rays than any other pebble. : They are ground with great scientific accuracy, are 1 free from chromatic aberrations, and produce a bright- < ness and distinctness of vision not before attained In , Spectacles. > Manufactured by the Spencer Optical Manufacturing i Company, New York.
