It affords instant relief to the deafest persons , and enables them to hear distinctly at church and at public assemblies . Messrs . SOLOMONS havo invented spectacle lenses of tho greatest transparent power . Tho valuable advantage derived from this invention is , that vision becomes preserved and strengthened ; very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the most minute occupation , can see with these lenses of a much less magnifying power , and they do not require the frequent changes to tho dangerous effects of further powerful assistance . — 36 , Albumarlo-strcet , "Pif > f » n . rlillv nnnn . ita fhn XVn » lr .
