The wear to the Shoes and Dies at their grinding surfaces in the Excelsior Grinder and Amalgamator, is perfectly aniform, thus securing evenness of reduction to the pulp, as well as steadiness Uniform wear of the grinding plates. has been attained in no other than that of the Tractory form—nor of motion to the muller. ean it be. Another property of excellence in this machine is that the metal or suhstance to be amalgamated passes direct from the grinding surfaces into the qnicksilver ; thus exclnding the possihility of its becoming coated with any foreign substances, after having been hurnished. It is truthfully said “that the Tractory-formed Pan as a Grinder has no equal, and as an Amalpamator no superior.” As a whole, it is far superior to any other pan in use.
