THE 
Lightning Peach - Parer. 
This Machine has bfcen largely sold for two years past, and 
has given universal satisfaction. It is the only practical 
Pencil-Parer ever invented. It is unsurpassed as an Apple- 
Farer, so the purchaser needs but one machine for paring 
both apples and peaches. Sold by the Hardware Trade in 
all large markets. On receipt of $1.50 I will send a sample 
by express to any address.

ESSEX F= > SGST 
I keep no other breed of pigs except the Essex. 
Taking everything into consideration, I regard them as 
the best, purest, most refined, quietest, and most thoroughly 
established breed of pigs now extant. 
I do not know that they have a single fault. 
I have never heard any one who examined them carefully 
object to them except on the ground of color. 
They are a black breed. 
I have heard many farmers say: “ If they were only white, 
they would be perfect.” This, of course, is mere prejudice. 
When dressed, they are as white as the whitest, and the 
lard is firmer and whiter than that of any white hog I have 
ever seen. 
“ But are they not too small ? ” They are classed with the 
small breeds, but they will dress over 400 lbs. They are 
quite large enough. They are the largest of the small 
breeds—larger than the small Berkshires, and much larger 
than the Prince Albert Suffolks, small Yorkshires, or

C LIMAX FIRE-KINOLING PEE. 
LETS.-Two years’ experience in the manufacture 
of fire-kindlings has directed our attention to the utilizing 
in their manufacture a waste material found in every family, 
that, when prepared according to our invention, will supply I 
them continually with the best kindling in the world for a j 
mere trifling expense. How well our efl'orts havo been 
crowned with success, we need only say that after a careful 
examination at the Patent Office of all the inventions in this 
line, this is pronounced to be the. most practical, best, and 
most convenient of anything yet invented. They commend 
themselves to the favor of all, even where the kindling of 
fires is intrusted to servants and children. We have also in¬ 
vented a perforated metallic Mold Press for family use, for 
molding this material, with which a year's supply can be 
molded in a day. Having perfected our inventions, and 
taken measures to secure tne same by letters patent, we de¬ 
sire that every family in the land may have the benefit of 
this great convenience. For this purpose, we will send by 
mail, postage paid, to any address, on receipt of one dollar 
and twenty-five cents, a mold, sample of kindling, instruc¬ 
tions bow to prepare the material, mold 1 , and use, and grant 
a family right, to make, and use the same.
