merit, It la light and completa, yct coats bnt little. 1n
all Mle-holdcrs before presented to the pnblle, the papers are very lable to tear,orelse tho method of inserting

THE RANDALL RAKE.
Here Is on article that we take pleasure In recommending This patent has been for some time on this coast,
but for want of means has been allowed to remain comparatively quiet. It will require from fonr thousand
to six thonsand dollars to handlo this Invention sucecssfully on tho Paclfic Coast, and wo would advise any
one with this amount of capital to look into the merits
of this patent before embarking in other bnsiness. We
cannot see why lt will not eventually supersede all
other horse rakes. it does lts work completely and is
easlly operated, 1t is s0 constructed that the tecth play
on an iron rod independeutly of each other, and therefore accommodate themselves to any snrface. The inclination of the teeth to the surface prevents them from
raking np sand and dust with the hay, and canses them
to glide easily over the ground. The driver has a spring
seat to sit npon, anda simplo action of the foot is all
“that Is nocessary to drop the bay. A complete model
can be seen at our office, or refereuces can be had to
parties who have them In use on their farms.

and costs fifly per cent. less. Agents get the lamps st
munufacturer's prices. This new light can be sern at

PATENT CHAIR SPRING.
PURINGTON & MAYOUX’S PATENT, NOV. 30, 1869.
This is the best Chair Spring vet invented, and will undoubtedly supersede all other devices of
the kind, as it is SIMPLER, CHEAPER, AND MORE DURABLE. As a simple article of comfort and ease, it has no superior, and only needs to be tried to commend itself to universal and lasting favor. The Springs seen attached to tho front legs of the chair in the engraving enables the
person sitting in the seat, with very little effort, to give themselves
A Gentile and Easy Rocking Motion.
And also to rest themselves hy change of position, by a very slight movement. It renders a common
chair, at a trifling expense, equal or superior, in many respects, to a rocking ehair. a
The advantage of this Spring over all others consists in the manner of attaching it to the
chair by tho simple turning of a nut, which nut is also securely, easily and quickly adjusted to the
Spring in a manner impossible for it to beeomo inadvertently detached. The engravings show the
parts both detached and as adjusted to the chair. .
Tho nut is made of metal, and is provided with a serew thread, so that it cun be serewed to the
leg of an ordinary chair; and instead of weakening and splitting the leg, as in the case where a hole
is bored and a serew inserted to hold and attach tho nut, this method strengthens it ‘The nut can
also be very quickly and easily put on or removed. .
The oase and convenience in applying the spring to the nutis readily seen. The top of the
nnt is provided with a collar or shoulder, and also an incline groove around the outer surface, so that
tho smaller end of the pan can be screwed to the nut; and its top eoil being bronght firmly against
the shoulder, all oscillation from side to side is prevented. When tho nuts are taken off, the chair is
nninjured in its original form,
THIS IS A CALIFORNIA INVENTION,
