; '.it '1 ' t Professional Eye Care -A doctor comes at your call, examines " you and leaVcs medlclno. But you do not consider him a "soller of me dicine." You regard him as a profes sional man who Is able! to diagnoso your cuso and prcscrlbo for you. The optometrist stands In the same re lation to you. He Is not a "sellor of glasses," hut a professional man able to diagnose your cyo troubles and pro scribe for them. His Is scientific work of a 'highly professional character.
