iSU'ong, well made in every i-e,<pect, light, and of conven- 

 ient, size. The can is but little larger than that of the 

 Novice. The gear is beveled, and covered by an iron shield,

 it is the best extractor made, botli in regard to convenience and

 Dr. C. C. Miller, Dr. A. B. Mason, and others.

 low that vou net<l not feel swindled if they do swarm:
