A NEW TALKING FiiAGHINE 



is tlie latest invention, and itdiffers from the 

 phonograph in this: instead of merely repeats 

 ins what is said to it, this machine takesboth 

 sides of the fence quest ion. It gives straight 

 wire a fair show against coiled siprinss, 

 convinces the most skeptical that expansion 

 and contraction iiiii!!it be provided for, and 

 nothing but abundant elasticity will do It. 

 Send for particulars.

Crane Smoker 



1895 Pattern. 



This excellent smoker was in- 

 troduced soDje two years ago, 

 since which time it has worked 

 itself rapidly into popular favor. 



Patnitrd March 12, IS!).). 



Its Distinctive Feature is the Crane 



Valve, by wliich tlie full force of the hellows 

 is secured witliout waste, and V)y which also 

 smoke is prevented absolutely from going into 

 the bellows. 



Tile Legs are of SIteleton Malleable 



Iron, contracted at the feet so as to be out of 

 ihe w ly of the fingers in handling, and are se- 

 cured to tlie bellows by bolts instead of screws. 



The Shield is of Light Corrugated Tin, 



and bags ne.xt to the bellows, tliiis giving ample 

 prt)tection from heat. 



The Cone Top easily tilts back for re= 



plenishing the smoker, and is secured bj' a 

 malleablc-iion hinge, the working parts of 

 wliicli are milled so as to insure accurate ad- 

 justment to the stove or cup. 



As to Fuel, it will burn any thing, in= 



eluding Soft Coal, Stove wood. Planer-shavings; 

 and it makes no difference how much the lat- 

 ter may be crammed down in the cup, tliere 

 will be the same strong blast as before. 



Price, 3^-inch barrel, $1.85, post- 

 paid; or $1.50 by fgt. or exp.
