ROGERS' SILUER-PLATED WARE. 



The silvor-plaied ware we otter OD this p;ipe is warrantea to be eqiiai tu auy 

 tiling made. In fact, the nianufactvirers claim that ihej will strip more silver 

 than any other goods made, and represented as the same grade. Our |)rices, too, 

 are lower than are generally made on goods of equal valvie, and we think you will 

 find very few opportunities to get the same class of goods so low. The fork. shown at 

 the right, is silver-plated on nickel. It is sectional plate that is. triple plated 

 on the three points, where tne wear comes, and costs no more than t he triple-plated 

 steel forks. Nickel silvr is a much superior base to plate thau sieel, and these 

 forks will outwear the tiiple-plated steel forks for that reason.
