The above cut shows the most simple and ing-en- 

 ious machine for paring, coring-, and slicing apples 

 we have ever seen. You notice there are no cog- 

 wheels, and verj' little machinery to it, o that it 

 cannot get out of order very easily. If you do not 

 want to core and slice the apples, the attachment 

 for doing this may be removed very easily. To 

 operate: Draw the st)iral rod back, and place the 

 apple on the fork on the end; push^the little dog-

down on to the screw. Turn the crank to the right 

 until it strikes the dog and turns it up out of the 

 spiral groove. This frees the screw so you can draw 

 it back. The apple, pared and sliced, drops off be- 

 yond the slicer, and the little stop to the left of 

 the dog pushes the core off. These are usually sold 

 for 75 cts. each. Our price is 50 cts.; by mail, 35 cts. 

 extra. Given for 3 subscribers, with f3.(K), and 35 

 cents to pay postage if sent by mail. 



AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHY. 



One of the most fascinating outdoor pastime 

 sports is amateur photography. Wonderful strides 

 liave been made in the art since the advent of the 

 dry plates. Amateurs can now with very little ex- 

 perience, and at a very little outlay, comparatively, 

 produce work that compares with that turned out 

 by professionals. Quite a number of engravings 

 which have recently appeared in Gleanings were 

 reproduced from photographs taken with an ama- 

 teur photographic outfit. Anthony's No. 1 equip- 

 ment we confidently recommend as cheap, and as 

 being first class in every respect. 



This consists of a mahogany ciitnera for making 

 pictures vertically or hoi-izontally, measuring 4x5 

 inches; one double dryplate holder, one fine single 

 achromatic lens, one improved triplex jointed tri- 

 pod, all packed in a neat carrying case weighing on- 

 ly 6^i lbs. We will furnish this outfit for 35 names, 

 or for the price, ftt.OO. With a box of dry plates 

 (65 cts. per dozen), the amateur with the above 

 equipment has every thing necessary for making 



pictures, providing he employs the photographer 

 of his place to develop and print the pictures. 

 This he will do for a small sum. If his time is

money, this will be a better way. But if he has 

 leisure evenings, and would like to enjoy the fun 

 of making pictures, he can do so himself, for less
