110 YEARS AGO

from the Mathews Journal

Dr. I. Berman, of Norfolk, who has large optical establishment in that city, and who holds a diploma from the Maryland Optical College and is also a graduate of the Philadelphia Optical College, which is a branch of the Southwestern Eye and Ear Dispensary, is in Mathews, and will remain here for a few days. Dr. Berman will examine your eyes free of charge, and asks but a moderate price for glasses. He is specially interested in the young and will fit glasses for the children that are bound to suit. He carries all the latest and up-to-date apparatus in connection with the eye and ear, and it would, in all probability, be beneficial for both parent and child if the doctor is allowed to make an examination. This is the doctor’s first visit to the county, and we hope our patrons will give him the consideration to which his talents entitle him.
