Rvery Iastrument w.rr.nted for rIyeY Year.

N presenting the AUTOMATIC ORGAN, we
l. boldly announce the greatest triumph in musi-
cal instruments of the age. During the past half
century, the French and Germans have manufac-
tured reed instruments with double bellows, and
two pedals for the feet to operate, but the want of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, (whi CHI 10 the
only oeiiows used In nstrume nts j made il i'm
Possiois Tor them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone Tor which Instruments are esie-
brated.
Another objection to this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, no opportuni-
~ was offered for the management of the swell
Within the past two years, instrume construct
cd on this European plan Of &c double blowers, -
have been manufactured in this country, and to
eountersct this difheulty (want of swell) lever
has been projected from the centre of the instru
ment, TO act upon the swell, and operated by the
knee The inconvenience and contortion necss
sary to effect this object, disagreeable enough
TO gentleman, but 10 4 lady the OF such an
aPPendage is nearly impossible.
Our Autmatic device otviates this difficulty en-
trely, the simple act OF blowing with more or less
force giving the desired increase decrease in
the volume OF tone. For seventeen years the
superior excellence of our Melodeons has not
been questioned, and for two years past the enor-
nous demand has made II impossible TOR Us to
meet our orders promptly. With our increased
facilities, we feel warranted in assuring our pat
rons that their orders will be promptly met, and
solicit a continuance of their patronage.

CAUTION FROM THE
American Watch Co.

1t having come to our knowledge that imitation
of the American Watch have been put upon tn.
market In great number, calculated by their utter
worthlessness to injure the reputation of our gen
ulne products, to protect our own interests anc
the public from imposition, again publish the
trade marks by which Watches may invariably
be KNOWN -, $50. -eer- .- :
Wem manufacture four styles ofWatrhes.1
The First has the
sfAMERICAN WATCH CO.. Waltham Masa ,,
engraved on the inside plate.
The Second has the name
"APPLETON, TRACY & CO., Waltham,
Mass engraved on the iusid plate.
The Third has the name
"P. S BARTLETT, Waltham, Mass, en-
graved on the inside plate.
All the above sly les have the name American
Watch Co. painted on the dial, and are warranted
In every respect. "a - ~ --%s@zs #--.+ ~
The Fourth has the name
"WM. ELLERY, Boston, Mass, - engraved ON
the inside plate, and is named or the dial T.
All the above described Watches are made OF
various sizes, and sold in gold silver cases
as may be required.
1t is hardly possible for us to accurately des-
crIbe the numerous limitations to which we have
alluded. They are usually inscribed with names
SO nearly approaching our own as to escape the
observation of the unaccustomed buyer. Some
are represented made by the ssUnion Watch
Co., OF Boston, Mass. ''--no such company exist
ing. Some are named the ssSoidier,a Watch TO
be sold as our Fourth or VIM. Elery STYLE usu.
ally known as the ''Sodier's Watch,'' Others
are named the Appleton Watch Coz, others
the SEP 5. Battley,' instead OF our ssP. s. Bart
iett;'' besides many varieties named i'm such a
manner as to convey the idea that they are the
Variable productions of the American Watch
Company. S1a
We also caution the public, and particularly
soldiers, against buying certain articles called
atches 80 freely advertised in illustrated papers
as "Army Watches 70 sc officers Watches >,
magic Time observers,'' sArcana Watches
&C., the prices of which are stated to be from
seven to sixteen dollars. A good Watch, in these
times, cannot be afforded for any such money.
little attention ON the part OF buyers will
protect them from gross imposition.

NEW SKIRT FOR 1866 6.
The Great Invention of the Age in
HOOP SKIRTS.
!. W. BRADLEf'S NEW PATENT
DUPLEX ELLIPTIC (or double1
SPRING SKIRT

This invention consists of Duplex Tor twa) Ell
liptic Pure Refined Steel Springs ingeniously
braided tightly and firmly together, edge to edge,
making the toughest, most flexible, elastic and
durable spring ever used. They seldom bend or
break, like the single springs, and consequently
preserve their perfect and beautiful shape more
than twice as long as any single spring skirt that
ever has can be made.
The wonderful fexibility and great comfort nd
pleasure to any lady wearing the Duplex Elliptic
Skirt will be experienced particularly all crowd
ed assemblies, operas, carriages. railroad cars,
church pews, arm chairs, for promenade and
tooocuPy small place as easily and COW sniently
as a silk muslin dress.
A Lady having enjoyed the pleasure, comfort
and great convenience of wearing the Duplex
Elliptic Steel Spring Skirt for a single day will
never afterwards willingly dispense with their use
For Children, Misses and Young Ladies they are
superior to all others.
The hoops are covered with ply double twist
ed thread and will wear twice long as the sim
gle yarn covering which is used all Single Steel
Hoop Skirts. The three bottom rods on every
Skirt are also Double Steel, and twice or double
covered to prevent the covering IRON wearing off
the rods when dragging down stairs, stone steps,
&C., &C., which they are constantly subject to
when in use.
All are made of the new and elegant Corded
Tapes and are the best quality in every part
giving to the wearer the most ace full and perfect
shape possible, and are unquessionably the light
est, most desirable, comfortable and economical
