THE GREAT AIR TIGHT CASE. 
TING-LEY'S PATENT. 
The Greatest Invention of She Age. 
The attention of the public is respectfully called to this 
most useful article; It is applicable to any purpose for which 
it is necessary to use a tightly fitting Casket; the head can 
be removed and replaced in an instant - ¥ and when closed, it 
is perfectly air and icater tight. It is adapted to various 
articles of 
HOUSEHOLD AND FARMERS' USE, 
Such as Sugar, Tea and Coffee Boxes; Meat Casks, Milk and 
Slop Pails ; Casks lor Kitchen Offal, for the use of Families, 
Hotels and Restaurants.— For Flour Chests and Ship Stores 
they are invaluable ; and by the use of this article, that pest 
of the household, the small red ant, is effectually excluded. 
The Patent .Moth Proof Fur Casket. 
This is a most admirable contrivance for the safe-keeping 
of Ladles' Furs, as when closed up in the case it is impos- 
Hible ior Moths to get into and destroy them; this Casket is 
perfectly Impervious to Air, "Water, or Insects; it is also 
provided with the Patent Head, which can be removed and 
readjusted in a Second.— For the safe-keeping of Woolens, 
It has no equal.

Which, for cleanliness, convenience, and the perfect ease 
with which the butter is made and taken out, excels all 
Others. This Churn took the First Premium at the New York

at which it has been exhibited ; it is also provided with the 
removable head, and improved dasher; and is beyond
