OUR IMPROVED SKELETON WAGON 



PATENT APPLIED FOR. 



We beg to call the attention of Breeders, Trainers, and Drivers to the above cut, which represents 

 our latest improved Skeleton Wagon. 



For a number of years past the ROAD Cart has been used as the principle vehicle for speeding 

 and jogging the trotter, and upon its introduction was considere^d a very good thing for that purpose, 

 but its use has failed to verify this fact, as tlie cart is being discarded and is fast growing into dis- 

 favor on account of its absolute tendency to ruin the pnreness of gait of the trotter, which tendency 

 is due to that peculiar bobbing motion and weight on the horse's back, which is wholy unavoidable 

 in the road cart, no matter who makes it; therefore, the SKELETON WAGON, which was laid aside, 

 upon the introduction of the cart, has again become (with more favor than ever), the principle 

 vehicle for jogging, training, speeding, and gaiting the trotting horse. The principle < bjection to 

 all other Skeleton Wagons is the low side bar, which prevents a snort turn, and is the cause of bend- 

 ing or breaking spindles and severe accidents. It will be seen by the above cut, with our high arch 

 bar, a very short turn can be made, which is very esscnti.al, as it obviates the breaking of wheels and 

 spindles, and avoids accidents. The general construction of this wagon is such asto prevent the 

 spreading of wheels when under full speed. Can also be mads much lighter than on any other con- 

 struction; therefore for jogging, for speeding, or forgetting aconspicuous view of tlie gait of your 

 horse, the Skeleton Wagon, as now improved by us, will fill a long-felt want. Made in all sizes, 

 from 65 lbs. up. SEND FOR FULL DESCRIPTION.
