the confidence of the people more than Mr. Hawkes. His name is a familiar
word throughout a section of country inhabited by over TWENTYFIVE

to the eyes of more people of national and international fame than any

This can be cured in many cases by the correct fitting of his Crystallized

he has other engagements for later days.

peddlers, going from house to house with a lot a spectacles, representing
them to be Hawkes', or selling the same grade of goods. Hawkes' spectacles
are NEVER peddled. Many of the inferior glasses that flood the
market are positively injurious to the eye.
