The  Waterman  Ideal  Fountain  Pen  is  the  very  best  pen  in  the  world,  and  is

It  works  admirably.  I  have  given  up  every  other  pen  In  Its  favor,  and  have  of  late  done  all  my 
writing  with  it.— Oliver  Wendell  Holmes,  M.  D. 
I  suppose  that  the  stylographlc  pen  has  been  the  cause  of  more  profanity  and  domestic  unhappiness 
than  any  other  modern  device.  1  think  yonr  Improvement  has,  to  a  great  extent,  abated  these  evils.— 
Chauncey  M.  Depew.

Mann’s  Bone  Cutter, 
Among  practical  poultrymen  there  is 
but  one  opinion  as  to  the  value  of  ground 
or  chopped  fresh  bone  for  fowls,  nor  do 
they  differ  as  to  the  utility  of  Mann's 
Bone  Cutter,  counting  it  the  very  best 
machine  ever  found  for  the  work.  There 
is  a  much  greater  value  in  these  machines 
than  is  at  first  apparent.  If  only  ground 
bone  were  wanted,  it  could  be  cheaply
