slightly declined. Flour is Inactive, and

Fruit Jar season has closed.
DRY GOODS.
Trade the past week was fully up to that

THE NOVELTY
Is the only Wringer that has the PATENT
ELANGE COS WHEELS on both ends
of the Rolls: The cogs on one end Of q roll
are set TeLattUeLy BETWEEN those on the other
end Of the SAME roll, virtually formlnga
DOUBLE GEAR,
And thereby nearly doubling the pur-
chase. (The importance of setting gears
in this position is not generally under
stood.) Notwithstanding the rolls can
separate freely at either end, the Cog
wheels CANNOT be thrown out of gear on
both ends of the Wringer at the same
tire, unless the pressure is token off.
The NOVELTY is fastened to a tub or
box by q Patent Cured Clamp, which has
an equal bearing on tub the whole length
of the VTjHgeT, Other WrIngers are merely
fastened to a Stave at each end, and are
thus liable to wrench the slaves from their
proper position and ruin the tub
The COg-Wheels. Thum b-screWs, &c, are
nicely galvanized.
Buy the NOVELTY, or at least take II
on trial with GRy or all others, and keep
the BEST. Sold everywhere.
