Optometry ‘"Optometrist” means a person licensed under the laws of the state to test eyesight and fit glasses. Having recently taken the State Board Examination and was one of a few that successfully passed, the privilege to use this title has been extended to me and Is the state guarantee to yon of my competency and authority to correct refractive errors by proper glasses, which Is not only an improvement to vision but a benefit to one’s general health. Remember the word “Optometrist,” it will safeguard yon against Incompetents who are neither capable nor authorised by law to test your sight or prescribe glasses. Ton owe it to yourself to get posted on the new Optometry law recently passed by the state for yon and your family’s protection. ■ "* If your eyes bother yon and canse yon to feel bad, don’t pnt it off, bnt call on the “Optometrist,” have yonr eyes properly taken care of and be relieved of yonr trouble. If yon break a lense or any part of yonr glasses don’t take them just any place, thinking yon can get the same thing, bnt take them to Catt, the Optometrist, then yon take no chances. Remember this. In order to get the people (amlllar with the new title, * “Optometrist,” which the state law has given the science of correction of visual defects by glasses, I will give $6.00 In gold to the person that writes “Dr. A. 6. Catt, Optometrist,” the greatest number of times on a 8%x5% inch postal card and mails to me on or be- - fore the first day of Jane, 1909. Office over Long’s Drag Store. DR. A. 6. CATT, Optometrist, Rensselaer, Indiana.
