HONORABLE Methods of Business, accom panied with Professional Ex cellence are Responsible for their Phenomenal Success in Butler. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Mahaffey and Miss Miller, the Expert Opticians, will be at the Lowry Hotel on the afternoons and evenings of Nov. 30 and Dec. 1. Free Examination of Eyes. No One Urged to Buy Glasses. Price From $2.00 to SB.OO. The Value of a Pair of Glasses is not the frames that carry them, ror is it in the lens if it does not fit yon. No matter how cheap you get them, if they do not fit yon they are dear glass es. But the value is in the comfort and ease with which one can see. The per fectly fitted glasses are often worth sev eral times the amount paid for them. Why go blind? If eyes that are giv ing pain in reading or sewing are not at tended to soon there is chance of the eyes going blind. Therefore the real value of glasses lies in the skill and knowledge of the optician. We guaran tee all lenses for two years. Mr. J. Q. A Kennedy, No. 6 Diamond Square, Butler, Pa,, saya: No doubt I have made as many ef forts to get the right kind of glasses and worn as many kinds of lenses as the average person; been fitted in But ler and Pittsburg, but must say I was unable to get any that I could use that would improve my sight at a distance, or that I could read with more than a few minutes at a time, then I would have to stop, until I called on Mr. and Mrs. Mahaffey and Miss Miller at Hotel Lowry, and after a careful examination 1 naa musil wli.li lui both «4i<a tance and reading. I can see at a dis tance perfectly, and read for hours the finest print without tiring, the first time in years I -could do so. I cheerful ly recommend these opticians to any one having trouble with their eyes, as they have done for me what all others have failed to do. Mr. W. C. Fleming, well known saw mill and lumber man of Builer countv, with headquarters at Greer's law office, says: I have been compelled to wear glares for years and always bought the best I could have fitted. I thought 1 could see very well. But three weeks ago I called on Mr. and Mrs. Mahaffey and Miss Miller at the Lowry Hotel. Butler, and had my eyes fitted, and compared my glasses with what they fitted. There was so much difference, I ordered glass es. I have worn them two weeks. I have tried them at a distance and find that I can read signs and recognize peo ple at a distance that I could not see with my old ones. I can also read for hours without tiring or aching after wards. I feel it a duty to those troub led as I have been to recommend these opticians to them. B. & B.
