FIVE ARTICLES 
FOR EVERY FAMILY. 
Pyle's SaBeratus. 
Pyle's Baking Cream Tartar. 
Pyle's Purified Soda. 
These articles are put up expressly for the best class of 
family Trade, are strictly Pure, and full weight. A fair tri- 
al will convince any intelligent housekeeper of the Econo- 
my of their use. 
Pyle's O. K. Soap. 
Pyle's Blueing Powder. 
These articles are designed for the Washing Department, 
and have gained a reputation which bids fair to place them 
in every house throughout the country. For the Saving of 
Labor and Expense we acknowledge no rival, and simply ask 
one trial to prove their superiority. All the best class 
Grocers have, or can readily get these articles. Some, how- 
ever, endeavor to persuade customers that they can supply 
something as good or better, for the reason that they make a 
larger profit : but it is the Housekeeper's right to have pref- 
erence, and the Grocer's business to furnish goods bearing the 
best reputation. All articles bearing the name of .TAMES 
PYLE can be relied upon for purity and just weight.

Putnam Mfg. Co : 
Gentlemen.— I know from practical experience that Iron 
well galvanized with zinc will not oxidize or rust one parti 
cle. I can safely say, after several years experience in the 
manufacture of chain, for chain-pump and water-drawers, in 
which I have tested the affinity of iron and zinc, that if the 
process be conducted properly, itis a perfect weld of the two. 
Nearly one year ago my family commenced using one of 
your Wringers. It now performs* all of its functions as well 
as it did the first time it was used, and has become an indis- 
pensable article with us. I have closely observed several 
other kinds of clothes-wringers, the modus operandi being 
different, trying to produce the same results as the Putnam 
Wringer, but in my judgement they have failed. The Put- 
nam Wringer is as near perfect as possible, and I can cheer- 
fully recommend it to be the best in use. 
Respectfully yours, 
JOHN W. WHEELER. 
Many years' experience In the galvanizing business ena- 
bles me to indorse the above statement in all particulars.
