A Wonderful MICROSCOPE.

Rev. Daniel Wise, D. D., editor OF the New
York Sunday School Advocate, thss speaks of
the celebrated Craig Microscope
=" It's simplicity, cheapness and great m agnify-
ing power struck me with surprise. Then l WAS
examining fly's eye by its aid, aud was struck
with wonder at the skill and power of the Creator
which is displayed in its structure. When l
saw a statement in an advertisement that the
Craig Microscope magni6ed one hundred diane
tets, and could be bought for $3.50, l thought
it was one Of the humbugs Of the hour, for |
had paid 500 for a microscope cot long before
But now find it to be a really valuable instru-
ment which should like to see introduced into
the families Of our readers in place Of the
manifold useless TOYS which please for an nour
and is then destroyed. This microscope would
both amuse andi instruct them and l advise
every boy and girl who wishes to know the
wonders which lie in little things to save his
money until he has $2.75, which will pay for
the microscope and the postage when sent BY
mail"
AS holiday gift this microscope is unsur-
pc ssed, being ornamental, instructive, amusing
and cheap, and never losses its interest. Agents
and dealers supplied on liberal terms. A sample
will be mailed, post paid, TO any address for
S275, by Z. H. Ross, Locust ST., St. Louis, Mo.

orally Advertze that Oh eirs the only gold medal thus
dieting each other whs ali the other prize
concur that gold ned Il was awarded to any

decide this knotty question; but be that it may the
Grover Baker sewing Machines have ceived the
very highest prxeabove eli medas-tLeir representa-
tive In Paris having been decorated by the Emperor with
the "Cross OF the Legion Of Honor"
1t 10 gratifying to find that the Grover Baker Ma
chine, which stands high At home should so receive
the highest h'nor abroad. When 1t remembered that
thousand gold medals awarded the Exposi-
tion and only $50 decorations will be that the
Gross OF the Legion Of Honor, considered BY the
judges much higher reward Of merit than the gold
medal No other sewing machines at the Exposition
ceved this distinction showing that in The opinion Of
His Imper isl Majesty, and the judges other was
equally deserving. This award places the Grover
ker Machine hrst In order the official catalogue the
Exposition, as 10 first In the estimation Of the public
on 10th sides Of the Atlantic
