use in fcmilies, hotels and public institutions
proves it to be of lasting value to the pur.

The manner of operating the Nonpareil,
by rorary motion acting on a crank shaft
with balance wheel which moves the
plungers alternately, is the simplest, least
laborious and most powerful that can he de-
vised for the purpose, and accomplishes the
work with the greatest rapidity and the
least possible labor.
The great speed with which this machine
performs work will be understood from the
statement that it is geared to give six strokes

or, when worked leisurely, about four hun
dred strokes minute-Safety to the fabric

The Combination Silver Skirt

This invention combines with the ordina
ry Skirt the advantages or our Silver Skirt
the bottom hoops are the same as those US
ed in the Silver Skirt, the covering of which
cannot wear off, while the upper ones ara
covered with cotton. No lady having once
worn one of our Skirts, will be willing to
wear any other, as the lower hoops of all
other kinds are soon injured and soileed.
The best mnteeials are used in their con-
struction, and, from their durability and
neatness they are destined to become a
Favorite Skirt.
