These Fire proofs manufactured to supply
demand for Security Against Fire, less expensive
than my Celebrated and Superior Chilled and
Wrought Iron Burglar and FIre-Proof Safes.
They furnish similar aud equal security to the
Safes generally manufactured IN the different cit
les, but are Superior TO them in their Fire-Proof
qualities and durability, the Iron being etectualy
protected from rust in any climate, and the Fire
Proof not subject to lose its utility by age. This
Is al important advantage gained TO the purchaser
safes often rust out aud become worthless in
two or three years.
To substantIate my position, those purchasing
these Flre-Proofs are at liberty, by giving me due
notice OF time and place of trial, TO sest them by
fire with any other Safe of the same size ana
should they not prove superior, will refund the
money, new Fire-Proof, as the purchaser

| 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 ana Germans have manufac-
tured reed Instrume nts with double bellows, and
two pedals for the feet operate, but the want CT
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, (wh. ch Is the
only bellows used IN our Instruments made II i'm
musical tone tor which Instruments cele-
brated.
Another objection to this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, no opPOrtunl-
~ was offered for the management of the swell.
Within the past two ears, instruments construct
ed on this European plan CT 90 double blowers
have been manufactured IN this country, and to
cOunteract this difficulty (want of a SWELL lever
has been projected from the centre of the InsIru
ment, TO act upon the swell, and operated by the
knee. The Inconvenience and contortiOn Reces
sary to effect this OBJ ect, dsagreeable enough
to a gentleman, but TO lady the OF such an
aPpendage is nearly impossible.
Our Autmatic device oEviates this difficulty en-
tirely, 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 tor 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 pat
rons that their orders VIII be promptly met, and
