A Mechanical Wonder. 
Last year we first introduced this 
charming novelty to the children 
of America and it is safe to assert 
that no Toy ever devised attained 
such immediate popularity; fully 
aware of its merit we had thousands 
of Dolls ready for the Holiday trade 
notwithstanding which the supply 
was exhausted early in December, 
and hundreds of children who came 
to our store were disappointed. We 
have been accumulating stock for 
the past nine- months and shall en- 
‘ deavor this war to fill all orders the day 
of receipt. The l»oll has been Im¬ 
proved in every way since last 
year. Instead of the stiff German body 
as in all imported Dolls our Doll has an 
AMERICAN MADE BODY with 
> limber joints so that it will sit easily and 
gracefully in any position. The arm is 
of Finest Kid with separate fingers. 
These are positively the finest bodies ever 
put in a Doll, they are of graceful and 1 
shape, and much better ana more exper 
made than the best imported bodies which they 
will out-wear many times. The Waxen 
Heads with long hair are of the best French and Ger¬ 
man make made especially for this Doll and they are as 
heautitul as life, long hair, beautiful eyes and delicately 
tinted cheeks. We consider them the finest Doll’s Heads 
ever imported into this country, and that without the 
Wonderful Musical Attachment THE doll 
ALONE IS WELL WORTH THE ENTIRE PRICE. THE MUSI¬ 
CAL Attachment is concealed within the body, it is one of 
the most ingenious inventions of the age. Its shape and 
location are shown in the right hand engraving. It is 
a Perfect Musical Instrument, finely made.not 
liable to get out of order and so arranged that a slight 
pressure causes the Doll to play one of the following airs: 
Home sweet home," “ Greenville," “Iwant to bean angel " 
There is a happy land,” “ ~ 
.. " ~ Son" ” “ ‘ 
__ _ ‘Sweet bye and bve,” “Bonnie 
"Hoio can I leave theeT' “A B G Song," “America," “Thou, thou reian’st” (German), “Frohe Bot- 
schaft" (German), “Tell Aunt Rhoda," “Buy a broom,” “Yankee Doodle,” Coming thro’ the Rye." “ God 
bless the Prince of Wales,” “Grandfather’s Clock,” “ Child’s Song," “Last Rose of Summer," “Joyful Message” 
(German), “Old Folks at Home," “Pop Goes the Weasel,” “So many Stars" (German), “Sleep my Child" 
(German), “ When la little bird,” “ Cradle's Empty," “God save the Queen.” Walking and talking dolls have 
long been made, but they arfe expensive, soon out of order and do not afford the little ones have the pleasure 
and entertainment that our Wonderful Musical J>oll does, which is the Greatest Novelty in 
CHILDREN’S TOYS EVER PRODUCED and is ihe most beautiful and approriate present that can be made to a 
child. We can furnish three sizes No. 1, 22 inches high, price $2.75. No. 2, 24 inches high, larger head 
price $3.25. No. 3, 26 inches high, OCR BEST DOLL, price $4.0». These Prices Include 
Boxing. All three sizes are equally perfect and complete, hut the larger the doll the larger the musical 
attachment and better head. Sent to any address on receipt of price-, fine embroidered Chemise

RELIABLE ROOFING. 
OLD ROOFS. 
Protect your Buildings by using Glines’ Slate Roofing 
Paint, which neither cracks in winter nor runs in summer. 
Old shingle roofs can be painted, looking much better, and 
lasting longer than new shingles without the paint, for one- 
fourth the cost of re-shingling. On decayed shingles it fills 
up the holes and pores, and gives a new substantial roof 
that lasts for years. Curled or warped shingles it brings to 
their places and keeps them there. This slate paint requires 
no heating or thinning, is applied with a brush, and very 
ornamental. Be sure you obtain our genuine article, which 
Is chocolate color, and is to all intents and purposes slate. On 
TIN OR IRON ROOFS 
the red color is often preferred, and is acknowledged the 
best paint in the market for durability on metal surfaces. 
It has a heavy body, hut is easily applied ; expands by heat, 
contracts by cold, is a slow drier, and never cracks nor 
scales. One coat is equal to 4 of any other paint. Build¬ 
ings covered with tar-felt can be made water-tight at a 
small expense, and preserved for years.

N. Y. SLATE ROOFING CO., 
NEW ROOFS. 
Rubber Roofing being very elastic, is strongly recom¬ 
mended by Architects, Corporations, Public Institutions, 
Builders, and leading men in all sections; can be laid over 
old shingles, felt, plastic and mastic roofs with positive 
satisfaction; will not draw in hot weather; sheds water 
readily, and Is a strictly reliable article. 
NO TAR OR GRAVEL USED. 
We mail such simple directions for applying, that any one 
can roof his own house. 
Mills, foundries, and factories a specialty. Materials 
complete for a new steep or flat Koor of Glines’ Rubber 
Roofing costs but about half the price of re-shingling. For 
Private houses, barns, and buildings of all descriptions, it is 
far superior to any other roofing In the world for conveni¬ 
ence in laying, and combines the ornamental appearance, 
durability, and flre-prooi qualities of tin, at one-third the 
cost.
