No. 60. “Saratoga” Potato Peeler" 
and Slicer. — (Sec Engraving.) —All the above: 
machines are most useful in every household where apples, 
cherries, and potatoes are to he 
cared for. Manufactured hy the 
Goodell Co., Antrim, N. II. We 
have never seen the work for 
which these machines were con¬ 
trived, more rapidly or better 
done, than they will do it. The 
Apples are pared, cored, and sliced 
with the greatest facility, and the 
Cherries are readily relieved of 
their stones, leaving the fruit in 
good shape. The “Bay State 
Parer and Sliccu” has a new at¬ 
tachment to the Knife Head which 
cuts the Apple into slices, and 
places them at one side in a dish 
on the table. The “Saratoga” 
slices and peels the potato at one 
operation, and is a very ingenious 
and useful contrivance. J^”Ouly 
three subscribers, at $1.50 each, 
are required to get any one of the 
above, except No. 59, which re¬ 
quires four. For nine subscri¬ 
bers at $1.50 each, we will send the whole (5) of them 
free , delivery unpaid. [Or we will supply any one of 
them at the price named (see Table).] Receiver to pay 
expressage. For prices see Premium Table, page 439.

No. 53.—Steinway Piano.-A Su¬ 
perb Gift.— Seven Octave Rosewood Case; Large 
Front Round Corners ; Beveled Top ; Ogee Mould¬ 
ing ; Rich Carved Legs and Lyre ; Overstrung Pat¬ 
ent Duplex Scale ; Patent Iron Cupola and Pier 
Frame; Patent Agraffe arrangement throughout 
THE ENTIRE SCALE. SAME AS IN GRAND PlANO. —This is 
one of the most elegant Premiums ever offered; regular 
and only price $650. That this Magnificent Instrument 
comes from the celebrated establishment of Messrs. 
Steinway & Sons, Nos. 109 & 111 East 14th St., N. Y., 
is enough to say ; but it is due to these enterprising 
manufacturers to state that while their pianos have re¬ 
peatedly received the First Premiums, by the award of 
the most competent judges the world can produce; at the 
Universal Exposition in Paris, they received the First 
Grand Gold Medal, and at the Centennial Exhibition 
in Philadelphia, 1870, they were awarded the High¬ 
est Honors, viz.: TWO MEDALS OF HONOR AND 
TWO DIPLOMAS OF MERIT—no other Piano exhibi¬ 
tor having received a similar distinction. Official report 
on Steinway's exhibit in the Main Building: “For 
greatest concert capacity in Grand Pianos, as also high¬ 
est degree of excellence in all their styles of Pianos, viz 
—largest volume, purity and duration of tone, and extra¬ 
ordinary carrying capacity with precision, and durability 
of mechanism ; also, novel disposition of the strings and 
construction, and bracing of the metal frame.” The re¬ 
port then minutely describes and emphatically endorses 
the six principal patented improvements which have 
made the Stein way THE STANDARD PIANOS OF THE 
WORLD. The world renowned Artists and Composers, 
No. 55.—Universal Clothes Wring;- 
or .—(See Engraving below.) —A very useful, time-saving, 
strength-saving, clolhes-saving implement, that should 
be in every family. 
Here is a thing that 
is of great value, 
“ and no mistake 
about it.” It will 
pay for itself sever¬ 
al times a year, in 
any family. The 
wringing ont of 
clothes by hand is 
hard upon the 
arms, and 
the twist¬ 
ing stretches and 
breaks the fibers 
with lever power. 
With this Wringing 
Machine, the gar¬ 
ments are passed 
rapidly between 
elastic rollers, 
which press the wa¬ 
ter out better than 
hand wringing, and 
as fast as one can 
pleased with these instruments. The "National” Organ, 
which we offer, is one of their latest and best styles. Price 
$150, and it is claimed by the makers, that for power, qual¬ 
ity of tone, style, finish, and the great variety of combina- 
princic’s “national” organ. 
tions, of which it is susceptible, its equal has never been 
produced before. The organ has t wo full five-octave sets 
of reeds, and the Kent impioved VoxCeleste Stop. It is an 
elegant premium.—Sent free for 150 subscribers, at $1.50 
each. Freight from manufactory to he paid by receiver. 
Dr. Franz Lizst and Anton Rubinstein, use the Steinway 
pianos exclusively, and pronounce them the standard 
pianos of the world. Many of the best judges in 
America say the same. We also speak from personal 
knowledge, as two of our Officers and many of our friends, 
who are good judges, have for years each had these pianos 
in nse. This splendid Premium may be secured by many 
persons. Sending ns 600 subscribers at $1.50 each will 
do it. It may be done by securing the 600 subscribers at 
$1.50 each, and save the entire cost, or by collecting the 
names at $1 each, and paying the differenceof $300. [We 
will make a proportional allowance if half or more of the 
names are collected.] Many Ladies, and some Men, have 
secured this Premium , and some have obtained two or 
more, and sold the extra ones, thus securing large sala¬ 
ries. Classes of Young Ladiesat school can unite in can¬ 
vassing, and obtain a present for a Teacher, or a Piano 
for their school-room. We shall bo glad to give this pre¬ 
mium to a large number. Send to Messrs. Steinway & 
Sons, New York City, fora free circular describing it. 
No. 54.—“National” Or.gan.— The 
establishment of Messrs. Geo. A. Prince & Co., Buffalo, 
N. Y., has long been famous for the excellence, durabil¬ 
ity, and elegance of the organs and melodeons manufac¬ 
tured there. We have had in constant nse for sixteen 
years (part of the time in otn Sunday School, and part of 
the time at home), one of Mr. Prince’s Large Melodeons, 
piano case, and it is just as good to-day as ever, and we 
would not exchange it for any other kind. Mr. Prince 
has, however, gone on improving the instruments—“ap¬ 
proaching greater perfection.” No one can fail to be 
pick up the articles. A most important feature of this 
Universal Clothes Wringer is the peculiar cog-wheel ar¬ 
rangement, which makes both rollers turn together, 
and always keep their place. Without these, the crank- 
roller will slip, and puli the fibers, and injure the fa¬ 
bric. A multitude of letters of thanks for these Ma¬ 
chines, given by ns as Premiums, have been received. It 
is easy to gattier at the regular rate of $1.50 each, the 
12 subscribers, and this will secure a present of one of 
these very valuable $7.50 Universal Wringers. They 
are made by the Metropolitan Washing Machine Co., 
Middlefield, Ct. R. C. Browning, 32 Cortiandt St., N. Y. 
[We will supply one of these valuable machines on re¬ 
ceipt of the price, $7.50]. Receiver to pay expressage.
