SELF-ADJUSTING and ADJUSTABLE! 
The only Wringer with the Patent 
Cog Wheel Regulator, 
which positively prevents the rolls from 
BREAKING, OR TWISTING ON TIRE SHAFT. 
Without Cog-wheels,'the whole strain of forcing the cloth 
through the Machine is put upon the lower roll causing three 
times as much strain upon the lower roll as when Cog-wheels 
with our Patent Regulator are used, besides the extra strain 
upon the cloth. Experience shows that Clothes Wringers 
without Cog-Wheels cannot be depended on. 
In reply to the question, “How Long will it Last!” we 
ean only say, “ As long as a wash-tub, cooking-stove, or any 
other family utensil.” See testimony of Orange Judd, of 
the American Agriculturist, No. 11 Park ltow, N. Y„ who 
says of the 
“We think the machine mnch more than PAYS FOR IT¬ 
SELF EVERY YEAR in the saving of garments! We 
consider it important that the Wringer be fitted with Cogs, 
otherwise a mass of garments may clog the rollers, and the 
rollers upon the crank-shaft slip and tear the clothes, or the 
rubber break loose from tlie shaft. Our own is one of the 
first made, and it is as GOOD AS NEW after nearly FOUR 
YEAR'S CONSTANT USE.” 
IT SAVES 
TIME, LABOR, CLOTHES AND MONEY. 
It is easily and firmly secured to the tub or washing-ma¬ 
chine, and will fit tubs of any size or shape. 
It is not onlv a PERFECT WRINGER, but the Cog-wheels 
give it a POWER which renders it a most 
EXCELLENT WASHER, 
pressing and separating as it does the DIRT with the WA¬ 
TER, from tlie clothes. 
It will save its cost every six months in the saving of clothes. 
We have seven sizes, from $6.60 to $30. Tlie ordinary family 
sizes are No. 1, $10, and No. 2, $7. These have 
AW® ASIF WAFaSAWTEB 
In every particular. 
This means, especially, that after a few months’ use, the 
lower roll 
WILL NOT TWIST ON THE SHAFT, 
and tear the clothing, as is the case with oui No. 3. and other 
Wringers without Cog-wheels. 
In our monthly sales of over 5,000, only from one to two 
dozen are without Cogs. In our retail sales we have not sold 
one in nearly two years! This shows which style is appre¬ 
ciated by the public. This is the only Wringer with the 
PATENT COG-WHEEL REGULATOR, 
And though other Wringer makers are licensed to use onr 
rubber rolls, yet none are ever licensed to use the Cog-wheel 
regulator. Therefore, for cheapness and durability, buy 
only tlie 
UNIVERSAL. CLOTHES WRINGER. 
On receipt of the price, from places where no one is sel¬ 
ling, we will send the U. C. W„ free of expense. What we 
especially want is a good 
CANVASSER

Tlie CABINET ORGANS, introduced about a year 
since, and manufactured exclusively by MASON & HAMLIN, 
have met with success unprecedented in the history of musi¬ 
cal instruments. Supplying a long felt want, they have been 
received with the greatest favor by the musical profession 
and the public, have already been very widely intro¬ 
duced, and the demand for them is still rapidly increas¬ 
ing, and must continue to Increase as their merits be¬ 
come known. They are to private houses, Sunday Schools, 
and smaller churches, all that the larger pipe organs are to 
large churches. In addition to this, they are admirably adapt¬ 
ed to the performance of Secular as well as Sacred music. 
The CABINET ORGAN is essentially different from 
and a very great improvement upon all instruments of the 
Melodeon or Harmonium kind. Its superior excellence con¬ 
sists in many important characteristics, among which are: 
1. The more organ-like character of its tones. Indeed, it is 
asserted with confidence that it has not yet been found pos¬ 
sible to produce a better quality of tone from pipes than is 
attained in these organs. 
2. It has greatly more power and volume of tone in pro¬ 
portion to its cost. 
3. By the employment of a very simple and beautiful In¬ 
vention, its capacity for expression is made vastly greater 
than has ever before been attained in such instruments. This 
invention' is especially valuable, because scarcely any prac¬ 
tice is necessary to render it available. Any ordinary per¬ 
former can master it in an hour or two. 
4. It admits of great rapidity of execution, adapting it to 
the performance of a greater variety of lively secular music, 
5. No Instrument Is less liable to get out of order. 
6. It will remain in tune ten times as long as a Piano forte, 
It may be reasonably said that if these instruments have 
the great and obvious superiority thus claimed for them, they 
must have feccived very warm recommendations from pro¬ 
fessional musicians who would naturally be most iuterested 
in the introduction of such Instruments, and who are the best 
judges of tlieir excellence. Such recommendations have 
already been given to them, to an extent unparalleled. 
Among those who have proffered written testimony to their 
admirable qualities and great desirability, and that they re¬ 
gard them as unequalled by any other Instruments of 
their class, are such well-known musicians as Lowell Ma¬ 
son, Thomas Hastings, William B. Bradbury, George 
F. Root, &c.; the most distinguished organists in tlie coun¬ 
try, as Cutlee, of Trinity Church, N. Y.; Morgan, of Grace 
Church; Zundel, of Mr. Beecher's Church; Braun, 
Wels, Wilcox, Tuckerman, Zerrahn, etc.; such cele¬ 
brated pianists as Gottsciialk, Wm. Mason, Mills, San¬ 
derson, Strakosch, etc.—In brief, more than two hundred 
musicians, including a large portion of the most eminent in 
the country, have testified to this effect. Each CABINET 
ORGAN is securely boxed so that, it can be sent safely 
to any part of the country.
