the celebrated Ringgold Cornet Rand, and a
number of citizens, including Chief Engineer

man, and Mr. Joseph Mishler. We are glad
to know that the Reading boys were well

"onpleasantuess " occurred. On Tkureday
morning they started, in a body, for the fair
ground, but were refused admittance unless

We find the contents, without exception, en

GENTLEMEN: In the year BM, I unfortunately
was in business in the Artisan Building, which
was destroyed by lire on the 10th of April. I
had then In use what I supposed was a Fire
proof Safe, but upon opening it I found every
thing was destroyed, and fire burning therein.
You will recollect gentlemen, there were
i
several of your Safes n that lire, also several in
the fire at Siath and Commerce streets, the next
May, live weeks afterwards, all of which upon
being opened proved they were lire-proof in
deed, for I witnessed the opening of the most
of them, and in every case the contents were
preserved, while Safes of other makers were
partially or entirely destroyed. lat once con
cluded to have something that I could depend
upon, and purchased ens of your Safes.
The Safe I purchased of you at that time was
subjected to a white heat (which was witnessed
by several gentlemen that reside in the neigh
borhood) at the destruction of my Marble Paper
Factory, 911 Wallace street, on the afterndon
and evening of the tith inst. After digging the
Safe from ,th i lulus, and opening it this morn
ing, I was m u
pleased to find everything, eon
misting Of b , papers, money and silverware
all right. I shall want another of your Safes as
soon as I can get a place to continue my busi
ness in. I could not rest contented with any
other Inske of Safes.

It is the only book that can show
THE OLD WEST AT IT WAS,
AND THE NEW WEST AS IT IS.
Agents should not attempt to sell imitation
books, or those which cover but a small portion
of our Western territory and a limited space of
time, but give people what they really want,
the full and complete history of the whole
West from 1867, down to the present time. Wo
shall pay large commissions on this work, and
