I heard "window SHOPPER" make that REMARK to a friend one DAY last week and I THOUGHT It was worth PASSING on to yon.

Did you ever try to answer that question? It la a question that may placed with "What la sleotnlclty?" because, though every one of ua uae It, free It, can make it and' could not do without It, few of us can tell exactly what It la.

It ia described as being "That form of radiant energy which, acting uoon the organs of sight, renders vlalble the objects from which It proceeda." It la propagated In waves In all directions from dta source and like electricity la calculated to travel at the rate of 188,000 mllea per second. This definition la all right for sclentlsta but to most of us It does not mean a great deal. I have an explanation of that is much easier to comprehend, though it takes up rniore space. I call it the heat theory. In my opinion, light la nothing or less tham intense heat.

A heated body radiates energy in the form of waves into the surroundjng space. The lower the temperature, the longer the wavea and at the lowest temperatures, only heat waves are given off. As the temperature rises the waves become shorter and the dull red rays begin to appear. As temperature Increases, the waves become shorter and until all the colors of the spectrum are shown and Anally blemded into a clear white light when the temperature reaches the highest point. We all know tfhat the spectrum ia made up of the seven primary colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue.

Indigo and violet. In addition to these visible colors there are Invisible rays known as "Infra red" and "ultra vlo-et" which la present in all light but invisible to the most of us who have no solenWflo apparatus for their detection. These Invisible rays are very Injurious, particularly when the eyes are expoaed ito the terrific heat of molten metal, furnaces, artificial Mght, automobile head-lights, stere-optlcan and moving picture lights and glaring It is these harmful rays that cause cataracts. Scientists have discovered that cer tain chemicals and metals, when com bined amd. mixed with molten glass will produce a slightly tinted glass.

that will absorb and finer out tne injurious Jnfra-red and ultra-violet rays. We grind lenses from this glass which will protect the eyes from the strain imposed by modern Illumination and as far as humanly possible, prevent the formation of R-t SL JL I have received a large quantity of this glass, made after the formula discovered by a great British scientist and am receiving wonderful reports from my patient who are wearing lenses made from this glass. The glasses do not look any different from the ordinary glass except when carefully examined. I have been wearing a pair of theae tinted lenses for a long time amd so far no one has noticed that they are anything out of the ordinary. iFor appearance, comfort, relief from strain and reetfulness.

there has been no greater improvement In eyeglass and spectacles than these scientifically tinted lenses. When you pome In. I will be glad to show you the blanks ifrm which they are groun taaaf, A manner in which We grind Sincerely youra. 107 X. Frsnklln Street (Ooraer of Vnlon ft.)
