THE NEW ROGERS’ SCROLL SAW. NO. 2.Given for new subscriptions amounting to $8.00; or for new subscriptions amounting to $5.00 and $1.25 cash extra; or for new subscriptions amounting to $3.00 and $2.00 cash additional.This season we offer to our subscribers the New Rogers’ Scroll Saw, which the manufacturers declare to be the best cheap saw ever offered to the public.Scroll-sawThe latest improvements on this Saw are Pratt’s Rubber Positive Blower and a new Clamp for holding the Saw Blades.The entire framework is made from Iron, painted and Japanned black, and ornamented with red and gilt stripes.All parts made to interchange.1. The Bearings to the Arms are carefully sized to bring them in perfect line. (This is a vital point in the construction of any Jig Saw).2. Each machine is provided with a Dust Blower, which is a very great advantage.3. Our machine has a jointed Stretcher Rod, which allows the operator to throw the upper arm out of the way when adjusting his work or saw. This joint also permits the machine to work much more freely than with a straight iron rod.4. Our clamps have a hinged jaw which overcomes the disagreeable raking overthrow of the blade, which is unavoidable when the saws are secured rigidly to the arms. Saw blades are not nearly so liable to break when clamps have this joint. Thus a large percentage of the expense of running the saw is saved. Besides this the saw runs much easier, the swing coming at the hinge instead of bending the blade with each stroke of the saw.5. The Balance Wheel is 4¼ inches in diameter, with a handsome spoke centre and Rim of Solid Emery (No. 70), ⅝ x ¾ in the No. 2 Saw.6.

SPY GLASS, NO. 2275.Given for new subscriptions amounting to $3.00 and 40 cents cash additional.telescopeThis is the best premium offer of a Spy Glass that we have ever made. This Glass has Rosewood body, and three draws. It is 15 inches in length when drawn out, 6 inches when closed. The object-glass is one inch in diameter. The power is 13 times.How far can I see with this Spy Glass? The distance at which an observer can see objects depends upon two considerations: First, the power of the instrument; and second, the condition of the atmosphere. All that is needful is to multiply the distance at which the unassisted eye can see objects clearly, by the given power of the glass. For instance, the atmosphere being clear and steady, this Spy Glass will enable a person to make out an object one mile distant with the same distinctness that he can see it at a distance of 130 yards with the unassisted eye. It is an excellent instrument. Price $2.50. Postage and packing 12 cents extra.
