The Best are 
The MASON" & HAMLIN CABINET ORGANS arc ac- 
knowledged to be the best Instruments of tliis class In tbc 
world. It is the policy of these makers to produce none but 
the very best work. They aim at success, not by using poor 
material and economizing in workmanship, bo that their 
instruments can be sold at a little less price ; but by produc- 
ing the most durable, reliable, and in all respects the best 
work possible, and selling it at the very lowest rates at 
Which sucli work can possibly be afforded, and at the same 
prices to all. 
They now manufacture more than sixty different styles of 
Organs, varying in price from $7j to $1,000 each. These in- 
struments contain all the latest improvements, some of 
which arc not to be found in other instruments, the right to 
their exclusive use having been purchased by M. &. H., in 
some cases at very large expense. 
MASON & HAMLIX have been awarded several times as 
many highest premiums, at Industrial Fairs, as any other 
maker, having received fifty-six within a few years. 
They present in their Circulars the printed testimony of a 
large majority of the most eminent Organists, Pianists, 
Singers and Composers in the country to the superiority of 
the instruments of their make. 
It is certainly economy in purchasing an instrument of 
this class to get the best, although the first cost may be a lit- 
tle more, as a poor instrument will soon get out of order and 
become comparatively worthless. 
C^~ It should be remembered that the recommendations 
of dealers arc not always reliable, as there is great tempta- 
tion for them to recommend those instruments on which 
they can make the largest profit; and makers of inferior 
work can afford the largest discounts. Mason & Hamlin have 
fixed their retail prices so low that they can afford only very 
small discounts, at wholesale, and hence the temptation to 
dealers to recommend and sell other instruments is great. 
Circulars with full descriptions, illustrations, and prices 
of the different styles, with hints on what constitutes, and 
how to select a good instrument, sent free to any one desir- 
ing them. Address MASON Si HAMLIN,

"Will effectually prevent fermentation or decay, and pro. 
serve nil kinds of Fruits, Vegetables, Jellies, Tomatoes, 
Cider, Slilk, Syrups, »fcc., &c, in a perfectly fresh and whole- 
some condition, without sugar, and without hermetically 
sealing or air lighting ; hence a saving of sugar— and from 50 
to 75 per cent, in the cost of jars. The solution is warranted 
to contain nothing injurious to health. Fruits, preserved by 
this solution, are equal to any "canned" fruits, while tha 
use of the solution admits of keeping the fruits, &c., in ves- 
sels of any size, and of using them at long intervals when 
opened. It saves sugar. It will preserve milk sweet from 
lo to 3G hours longer than it will naturally keep — causing it 
to furnish more and better cream, and make more butter in 
warm weather. One bottle will preserve 123 pounds of 
fruits, or 48 gallons of cider, or 133 gallons of milk. Price, 
$1. Fnll directions for using with each bottle. Sold by all
