first acquainted with the saddlng business, and from
near six years trial of my Spring Saddle four years be-
fore patented, in order to prove them and near
two wears since on public trial. can now with conf
dence saw that saddle made on this principle, is pet
ter in every respect than saddle made IN any otnei
way, either with or without springs; and will give tf-
" dollars to any man that can prove otherwise, or
make any reasonable objection why it cannot be done;
and will give one hundred dollars for Improvement
on them.
These saddles are made complete at from twelve to
forty five dollars. The springs are equally as wen a
dapted to LANES saddles MS any Others and any one

cation were made, and when they receive the saddle
