The Tour larger sizes have extra wide shields and double-coiled steel- wire 

 handles. These shields and handles are an amazing comfort— always cool 

 and ele in. No more sooty nor burnt Angers. Tlie plain and Little Wonder 

 have narrow shields and wire handles. All Bingham smokers have all the new improvements, viz.: Direct 

 draft, movable bent cap, wire handles, inverted bellows, and are absolutely perfect. With a Bingham 

 Smoker that will hold a quart of sound maple wood the bee-keeper''- trials are over tor a long time. 



Who ever heard of a Bingham Smoker that was too large, or did not give perfect satisfaction? The 

 world's most scientific and largest comb-honey producer uses Bingham Smokers and Knives. The same is 

 true of the world's largest producer of extracted honey. Before buying a smoker or knife hunt up its rec- 

 ord and pedigree.

Bargains in Second^liand Bicycles. 



We have on hand two ladies' Defiance bicycles, 

 made by the Monarch Cycle Co.. of Chicago, and 

 listed at f "■'^.00. These are hist year's models, and 

 were used by the women of Rootville last season. 

 The two machines are in first class running order; 

 and as they were ridden but little they are practi- 

 cally as good as new. They have Garford spring 

 saddles, reversible handle-bars, lYs-inch tubing, 

 Morgan & Wright quick-repair tires. Weight, 25 

 lbs. each. Catalogs and particulars will be furnish- 

 ed on application. We will reenamel them, and 

 sell them for $35.00 each, or the two for $67.50. 

 Beeswax or honey at market prices will be accepted 

 in payment. Reason for selling— we are going to 

 have a tandem instead for '97. 



A $100 Rambler Racer bicycle for $35.00 cash, or 

 $40.00 in trade for wa.x or honey at market quota- 

 tions. The wheel weighs only 20 lbs ; has a new 

 set of Rambler clincher tires, and is almost as good 

 as new. It was ridden by A. I. Root during part of 

 '96, and is just the bicycle for a boy or light-weight 

 man. Further particulars given by applying to 

 The a. I. Root Co., Medina O.
