Dodecahedron Paper-weights. 



Several years ago we made a special importation 

 from Geruiany of 1000 of the beautiful glass paper- 

 weights of which the above is a very poor repre- 

 seut;itioii. Notliiiig- would lie more approi>riate for 

 a bee-keeper, as it illustrates the mathematics of 

 the honey-cell to perfectiDU. It is such a l)eauty 

 that anjijody will be pleased and delighted with it. 

 No matter which way you turn it, you will be 

 charmed by new beauties. The above cut gives the 

 actual size. When we found it in Chicago it was re- 

 tailing at 50 cents; but buying 1000 of them we got 

 them at a figure that enables us to sell them at ~0 

 cents each, or 6 for !fl.0U; one dozen for ifl. 80. By 

 mail. 3 cts. extra on one; V.I cts. extra on 6, or 20 cts. 

 extra per dozen for postage, and packing to prevent 

 in.jui'y. We will send one free postpaid for a new 

 subscription to Gr.,EAMNfiS with $1.00; or for a new 

 subscription, with your own renewal, with t-.tO, and 

 5 cts. for postage, we will send two.

Tyler's Flour-Receptacle. 

 A Much-needed Household Convenience. 



This is the most 

 c (J n V e n i e n t ar- 

 rangement f o r 

 Hour that we have 

 ever seen. It 

 holds ju.st a 49-lb. 

 sack of flour. It 

 is to be hung on 

 t h e w a, 1 1 j u s t 

 above your table. 

 When you want 

 SI line flour simply 

 lilace your pan 

 under it, open the 

 lid on the Ijottora 

 and turn the 

 crank and you get 

 youi- flour already 

 sifted. It is sim- 

 ple, neat, and ef- 

 fective, and not 

 expensive either. 

 Pi'ice $2 00 each, 

 crated ready for 

 shipmmt. or giv- 

 8.00. 



There are a number of flour-bins on the market, 

 of vailous styles. This one possesses special merit. 

 Some kind of bin is a necessity for keeping flour 

 neat and clean. , The cut of the Peerless shows t lie 

 can cut awiiy to illustrate the manner in which it 

 works. The connection between the crank on tbe 

 side, and the revolving piece in the bottom over the 

 sieve, is a heavy coiled wire spring, making the 

 mechanism very simple and strong, and easj- to op- i 

 erate. A finger pro.lects from the revolving disk, to ! 

 keep the flour stirred on to the sieve. This bin, in- : 

 stead of being hungup like the Tyler, stands on a 

 table or shelf, and the flour is sifted into the drawer ' 

 from which you empty it as needed. Price, each, I
