On account of tho great demand for these
Shelves many attempts have been made to invent
a Shelf that would avoid our patents; and some
patents have been obtained on some new, but
worthless points, that are Of no value to the in

our numerous patent claims. We therefore warn
the public against dealing in Shelves that in
