TODD'S PATENT
Feather Renovation.

vNHE subscriber having purchased the OK
Il elusive right to use Todd's Patent Steam
Feather Renavator, in this and several other
counties in Virginia, has had a machine built
and put in operation by Mr.. George d. Lam
caster, In the house where said Lancaster
now resides. BY the operation of this ma
chine, old Feathers that have been in use for
more than 20 years, are completely cleansed
(without injury,) from every thing like dust,
moth, or unpleasant odour,and are so entirely
renovated and enlivened that they assume the
appearance of new feathers, and are increased
in bulk at least one-third so that three beds
equally large may be made out of the feathers
that two contained previous to renovating
them.-By the use of this machine the un-
pleasant odour that attaches to new feathers is
entirely corrected without injuring them in
the slightest degree.
Persons DESTROYS of having their feathers
cleansed and rendered pure and wholesome,
will please call on Mr.. George ID. Lancaster,
who will at all times be ready to perform the
operation on the shortest notice and in the
most perfect manner.
