IF YOU haven’t you had better call at. my office and see if 1 have your name posted up as the owner of one or more. I want all who own or harbor dogs to come and pay their dog tax at once and save money. This is the only notice you’ll get and if you’re wise you’ll attend to it. TO'I‘ICE IS HEREBY GIVEN i that 1. George Cgsw.ell have n9 (Lid partly raised, seat in position) The need of a properly adjusted and adjustable Desk for school chil dren has been a long felt want. but ‘ the problem has at last been solved through the inventive genius of C. Smith, of the Durham Foundry. The cuts in this article show the ease with which the leaf can be adjusted to suit the angle for purposes of reading and writing. By simply turning a small set screw, and mov- ing the leaf up or down as required the proper angle is secured. This alone is worthy of consideration. and the eyes of pupils with properly adjusted books will not sufier fa- tigue as is so often experienced in the ordinary style of school desks. The seat also is adjustable and can be raised and lowered to suit the {convenience of the pupils. Mounted 'as they are on strong spring steel they give ease and comfort to the :occupant, and relieve the strain un- ‘der which they are ordinarily sub- jected. It will also be noticed that the seats are fastened to a swivel so arranged that they can be turned completely around to allow the pupil to get in and out with readiness, and for convenience in sweeping. The metal base attached to the floor is easily swept around, leaving no recesses for the accumulation of dirt. The upper portion of the desk is made of nicely grained oak and is so finished as to present a very pleasing and attractive appearance. Trustees will do well to see'this new desk and examine its merits before re seating their school rooms. The prices are no higher than you have to pay for ordinary school desks. Hhe Emeka School Desk!
