The Royal St. John sewing machine, which is on
exhibition in the upper main hail at the Pavilion,
and of which 7. W. Schwamb, No s04 street, be
tween Eighth and Niuth is the agent, is attracting
merited attention by the crowds which constantly
throng his department. This famous machine is
one of the simplest, one OF the strongest and most
durabe manufactured 1t is the only sewing
| chine in the world that turns either forward or
backward and still continue to sew in the game di-
rection. There are no holes to thread in the ma
chine or shuttle. In short, it is marvel 1t chal-
lenges comparison, distances competition surpasses
expectat n, and saint ''it to every home,
and by its presence CHEEKY, it banishes care aud
burdens bear, of women worn and weary; it seams,
| it hens, it fells it binds, it ruffes, tucks and
gathers, and all machines it leaves behind while it
sews on forever" MIR. schwamb also exhibits
another popular and well-known machine The New
Remington This machine deserves special notice,
from the fact that it is durable ard light running,
and has but few equals and no superiors. Mr..
Schwamb has a large stock of both machines in his
salesrooms at No. SO4 street, between Eighth and
Ninth, where all who desire to purchase or are in
any way interested in good sewing machines, can
see and examine fer themselves. The machines are
sold on easy terms, so that no family ought to be
without Royal st. John or a New Remington.
The wheeIock Piano.
F. R. Girard, pianos and organs. Never in the
history of the State Fair there such fine dis
play of pianos and organs the one made this
year by Mr.. Girard, of San Francisco. The
superb Wheelock pianos the admiration OF all
| the visitors These pianos are no doubt made Of
the best material and by the most skilful mechan-
les. The tone is superior to any we have heard in
the Pavilion. Mr.. Girard also exhibits the cele-
brated Western Cottage organ. The Girard piano
on exhibition is home made instrument, and no
doubt the judges will take in consideration first
California made pianos, as we are bound to protect
home manufacture We understand that Mr.
Grard has sold five pianos in the last two days,
which is more than is claimed by any other exhib-
itor of pianos.

Cleanser and Healer.
The National Cleanser and Healer is a washin
compound, and is undoubtedly the best preparation
ever placed in the market for the purpose for whic
t it is intended. A splendid exhibit of this CON
g pound is made on stand in the north end of tn
main hall. 1t is manufactured by Brier Mead, c
San Frarcisco Some of the points claimed for thi
compound, and they can all be verified by use: q
1t cleanses perfectly without injury to the most de
icate fabric as it contains acids or akalies. 6
For house cleaning it is invaluable, as it removes il
stanty grease spots and stains from wood aud pain
g work (3) Superior for cleaning soiled carpets an
) dirty blankets. az 1t quickly heals cats and sore
= on man or beast. (5) 1t can't be beat for cleaniu
u harness. (6) 1t will dandruff, andhed ski
! diseases of the head. The remarkably low price
this preparation brings its cest below that of soaI
o while much more can be accomplished by its us
with much less labor than when soap is useC
e Every housewife should try sample Of this prep,
Q ration, which can be obtained at the stand aboy
- mentioned.
