Patent Elastic Saddles.

4 WORD TO THOSE WHO ARE FOND OF EASY
The complaint against hard and uneasy
saddles, which is for the most part just
and general one, and is really great gIie.
vance to those who have much riding to
Go, has caused bin to tura his mind par.
tculsrly to that subject, with a view, IL
possible, TO remedy tbs evil. lie can
with cas6dence assure the public that be
has accomplished it. The plan projected
is by means of strong and well tempered
steel springs, so constructed as TO support
the saddle seat and give much greater ease
10 both rider aud horse, than saddles made
IN the common way or any other that he
has ever seen can possibly do. The plan
is entirely different from the English elias
tic saddles with spring bars OF steel,
wbalebsne, &c. and also from those with
wire springs, and be conceiyes much SUI
perior to either, as the elasticity is great
er, aud The tree not being put out OF its o.
rigioal form, will not be subject TO- hurting
horses on journeys, whicfis complained
of in tie saddles with spring bars. A
number Of gentlemen have those saddles
now IN use, and but one sentiment exists
among them in favor oil thei' superiority.
The invention is equally as applicable 70
LADIES' saddles as to genllemen's. In
point Of dura biliry they will be warranted
equal to any other saddles and superior to
most, JAMES VaNoAN1'
