Saw is as good and will do finer work than any $>15 or $>30 Saw in the world. It is not a toy. It Is aroSg^org^ 
practical machine, and used by both professional and amateur workmen. Description.— Length of Arms, 21 inches; g.r* c “ 71 £

Wheel, 12 inches; length of Stroke, 13-4; Number of Strokes of Saw per minute, from 800 to 1,000. A competent carpenter 
says,— “ I cannot make this saw for $10; I should not get paid for my time alone." We make them by the 10,000; make each"!' t» SoV a-S 
part with special and expensive machinery, which cuts out and finisltes with great rapidity, each part fitting exactly where it 3 pS 
belongs, and there is no waste of material or time. A single machine could not be made for $15. The frames arc of —g g B Jo 0 g 
best oak and ash, with iron wheels, blocks, braces, and connections, and steel bearings. Each one warranted l'or ten gpS-o'' 5 ggj* 
years ; every one adjusted and tried before sold. Directions sent for putting together which can be done in ten minutes. gSlyg © 
Every boy is delighted with bracket sawing; it pays them good wages, and their work commands a ready sale. Our saw com- I g S,p § ^ 
pletcly fills the long felt want for a foot power saw that will do the best work, and be within tiie beacii of the^“ “' 1 2 
pooeest boy. We make hut very little on a single saw, hut we mean that every boy in America shall have one. Both thep.^ g Ss o 
press and mechanics flatteringly endorse our saw. It is an unprecedented baegain. Messrs. Perry, Mason, & Co., editors §.t 2 &o |'3 £m 
of the Youth’s Companion, say,— “It will saw sts fast, do as beautiful woek, and cut out as large work ass'c S'S-'’ o."£j
