T!ie Lilly Cleaner, by J. L. Olark, Indianapolis. This is claimed to be a verv supe- 

 rior article for removing tar, grease, paint, oil or pitch from any kind of cloth, 

 perfectly, and without injury to the goods. It is easily applied, and by its use 

 articles may often be made presentable that would be otherwise thrown aside in 

 consequence of accidents to them. 



Physician's Office Chair, J. H. Clark c£- Co., Indianapolis. This chair has arrange- 

 ments for all adjustments that may be required in a reclining chair, and may be 

 adjusted at any angle with the patient on it. It is a superior opefating chair, with 

 all Nthe advantages of more expensive and complicated chairs, and is the most 

 simple, solid and durable of any. 



Book Binding and Stationery, by W. B. Burford, Indianapolis. This is a large and 

 handsome display of books in the best styles of bindings, comprising all forms of 

 blank books in use, which were tastefully arranged for display. 



Chicago Shoe Store, bij G. L. W. Mack, Proprietor, Indianapolis. Th's was a very 

 fine display of goods in this line, comprising the best makes of English and French 

 manufacture, as well as a full line of American goods from the best manufacturers, 

 in all styles, from the most stylish to the more common for ladies' wear, and from 

 a jockey boot, weighing only nine ounces, to the more substantial for men's use. 

 This exhibit was notable for the taste displayed in its arrangement, which made it 

 a conspicuous and attractive feature of the second floor. 



Orchesfrone, by Lander & Davis, Agents, Indianapolis. This is a musical instru- 

 ment which, in general appearance and tone, is much like a reed organ, and re- 

 quires a paper web, properly perforated, to produce the music required. No train- 

 ing or skill is required to play it. It is gotten up in a style to make it an orna- 

 ment to the parlor, or wherever it may be desired to use it. 



Musical Inslruments, by Emil Widschner, Indianapolis. This exhibit consisted of 

 three pianos, one organ, and a set of band instruments, which were all of the best 

 makes and of superior quality, both in tone and finish. 



Boyal St. John Seving Machine, by E. E. Broim, Agent, Indianapolis. This is one 

 of the many good machines claiming to be superior to all others, which has points 

 of excellence that make it worthy of careful examination by those wanting a sew- 

 ing machine. It is claimed that it does its work perfectly, is easily managed, runs 

 light and without noise, and is simple and durable in construction. 



Eldridge Sewing Machine, by W. H. Iddings, Agent, Indianapolis. This appears 

 to be an excellent machine, and has some peculiarities not found in others. The 

 fly-wheel runs as a loose pulley, if turned backwards, making it impossible to run 

 the machine backwards, but is used that way to wind bobbins. It has, also, a self- 

 threading tension, and keeps an even pressure all the time with uneven thread. It 

 has, also, an adjustable automatic take-up, which is easily regulated for the light- 

 est or heaviest work. In threading, the eye of the needle is the only hole to pass 

 the thread through. The driving-wheel axle is hung on adjustable centers, and has 

 an inside crank. The machine is well made in all respects.
