THE Subferibers haring observed
and experienced many inconvenienced atitri ।
ding the fixing, putting up, and taking down that '.
necessary Article of Furniture, the Bedstead,
have invented an improvement to remedy thole in
conveniences. Being equally applicable to com
mon Bedsteads, with lacking Bottoms, as to more
costly ones, they persuade thcmfelves it will meet
with general approbation. It would exceed the
imits of an advertisement to be particular in de
scribing the firuaure and advantages It may fuf
fice to fay,he Bedflead is firmly fastened at
the cornets, without the tiuublefome operofe con
trivance and use of screws. It may be easily put
up by one person, and little more time is required
for taking it down by one person, than would be
necessary for putting upand taking down the leaves'
cf a Dining Table. Theft advantages are obvious
in an article which requires frequent examination
and is frequently removed, but the fpScial advan
tages in c fc of Fire will be perceived at once b,
those who have been obliged to remote and save
furniture on such occasions of hurry and distress—
The tubferibers flatter themselves that an invention
combining simplicity, ulefulnefs; and cheapness
will be encouraged by a generous Public.
The right for making and vending the above
Patent Bedstead, may be purchased, on appli
cation to either of the fubfenbers at Portsmouth
