THE BEE-KEEPERS- REVIL'^^^, . 



Violin for Sale. 



I am advprtisiiig for the well known manu- 

 facturers of musical instruments, J no. F. 

 Strattou & Son, of New York, and taking my 

 pay in musical merchamlise. 1 have now on 

 liand a fine violin outfit consisting of violin, 

 bow and case. The violin is a " Stradiuarius. " 

 Red, French finish, high polish, antl real ehony 

 trimmings, price j;14.'JU. The bow is of the fin- 

 est snakewood, ebony frog, lined, inlaid ( pearl 

 lined dot ) pearl lined slide, (xorman silver 

 shield, ebony screw-head, German silver ferules, 

 and pearl dot in the end, price ^2. ."Ml The case 

 is wood with curved top. varnislied, full-lined, 

 with pockets, and furnished with brass hooks, 

 and handles and lock, price $3 50. This makes 

 the entire outfit worth an even $20 00. It is ex- 

 actly the same kind of an outfit that my daugh- 

 ter has been using the past year with the best of 

 satisfaction to herself and teachers. II't violin 

 has a more powerful, ricii tone than some in- 

 struments here that cost several times as much.

 half nice, white extracted honey in payment, the 

 balance cash. It will bo sent on a five ilays'
