THE CELEBRATED 
Dexter 
Is one of those inventions that commends itself lo the 
PRACTICAL 3L\.S as the C030ION-SEXSE 
SPRlSiG, being a side-spring ■without the unpleasant and 
dangerouus siili; motion of the Concord, and obviating the 
jerking of the Elliptic. Being without perch, gives inde- 
pendent action to each wheel, making them niucli more 
durable. The SPRINGS are made of special CRX'CI- 
BLE STEEL, and are fully warranted. 
The DEXTER supplies a want long felt by the Parm- 
er, Bnsincss Man, and Pliysician, as^t gives thoni 
the easiest riding and most durable SPRIXG A'EHI- 
CLE known, and mnch less liable to break than the 
ordinary spring, on account of quality and form. 
Please examine carefully the editorial and advortisement
