That " Black and Hybrid Queen Department" is a 

 grand column. T received more orders for queens 

 than I could fill. J. M. Kale. 



Newton Falls, O., Oct. 5, 1888. 



The goods I ordered were received in good 

 condition— every thing satisfactory. The 5-cent 

 wash-basin is .iiist the thing for the shop, and 

 cheap too. Chester Olmstead. 



East Bloomfleld, N. Y. 



I have taken the premium wherever 1 have ex- 

 hibited. I feel proud of it. Thanks to A B C and 

 the nice white sections, also to Novice's extractor, 

 for they do say that my honey is finer, and put up 

 in better condition, than any other on this coast. 



Reno, Nev., Nov. 4, 1888. E. A. Moore. 



I received my goods all right, and Gleanings al- 

 so, which 1 prize very highly. T. Hauden.

THE WORLD TYPE-WRITER. 



The World type-writer is just received, and 1 have 

 tested it, and will say that we are well pleased with 

 it. It is full of real business. If any one has little 

 or much writing to do, he will find it most delight- 

 ful. The more I use it, the better I like it.

FABLES AND ALLEGORIES; 



OR, NEW LIGHTS ON OLD PATHS. 



This is a most magnificent book 

 by Chas. Foster, the author of the 

 Story of the Bible. It measures 8 

 by 9'/2 inches, by 1% inches thick, 

 and weighs i lbs. It is printed on 

 very heavy toned paper, with 

 heavy gilt edges; is bound in light- 

 blue cloth, embossed in black and 

 gold; contains .51:2 pages and 3.50 

 original illustrations. The subject- 

 matter is a series of fables and al- 

 legories, each giving a most whole- 

 some moral lesson that very few 

 of us, old or young, do not need. 

 This book would be an ornament 

 on the center-table in any home; 

 and if read and pondered, and its 

 lessons put into practice, many 

 hearts would become more lovely, 

 and many homes more pleasant 

 and beautiful. The lessons taught 

 are made much more pungent by 

 the pictures accompanying, as in 

 many cases the story is more than 

 half told in the pictures. So large 

 and nice looking a book is rarely 

 sold by agents for less than $4.00. 

 Our price is $2.00. By. mall, 33 cts. 

 extra, or given for 6 subscribers, 

 with $6.00, and 33 cts. to pay post- 

 age, if sent by mail. Will sell two 

 for S3.50, three for $5.00; five or 

 more, at $1.50 each. We have sold 

 nearly 100 the past two years.
