s6S- The best Sewing Machine now in market
is Weeds Patent, which is so simple, that a mere
child can operate it, and experience in the use OF
Sewing Machines demonstrates that this Machine
is less liable to get out of order than any other
Sewing Machine now before the public.
The Rev. Robert G. Williams, Of, Woodbury.,
Conn, SAYS, After an examination of every other
kind of Sewing Machines, I was fully convinced
yours is the best, and an almost constant use Of
il for some time has more than realized my expec-
tations, for I know there is no other machine that
will, with so little trouble, perform 80 much and
so many different kinds Of work.

SOMETHING NEW IN YORK
TILTON'S PATENT
IMPROVEMENT ON THE VIOLIN +!

TINTIL within a few years, there has been no
change in the VIOLIN. The oldest instru-
ments now in use were made about the year 1850,
at Cremona, in Italy. Musicians have long be-
lieved, that to possess perfection of tone, o V1O-
LIN must have age; but this belief has Of late
been agreeably changed, even in regard to the
Cremona; by using the new patent improvement.
The chief object Of TILTON'S PATENT, is to
obtain q tone at once clear and full, mellow and
round, sweet and powerful. These VI0LINS are
for sale at the JEWELRY STORE occupied by
