THE FLYER RAILROAD TRAIN-New.

f 1 — The most elegant and elaborate toy which we have presented to the public. It consists of a locomotive, tender and passenger coach, decorated in gilt and natural colors. The locomo- tive and tender together are twenty-six inches long, and are the most perfect model of a first- ciass American passenger engine ever made as a toy. The car is eighteen inches long, and represents a first-class Drawing Room Car, in natural colors, with the passengers at the windows. The whole train is about forty-five inches long when shackled up.

The above cut is engraved directly from a photograph from the toy, and represents accurately the proportions and construction of the several parts. Every thing represented in the cut appears on the toy exactly as shown Price, $18 00 per dozen.

THE EXCURSION STEAMBOAT-New.

2 — This is the largest single toy we have ever made, it being twenty-four inches long, five inches wide, and nine and one-half inches high to top of smoke-stack.

There are two tiers of cabins ; the decks are supported by posts, and the netting encircling the decks is represented in a neat and durable style.

When the boat is drawn over the floor the walking-beam works up and down in a natural manner. The whole is beautifully finished in natural colors, and makes a very large and elegant toy for the price at which it is sold Price, $9 00 per dozen.

THE TEXAS RANCH

The parts of the cars and locomotive, can be put together and taken apart at pleasure, and a great number of«0ther orig- inal combinations may be made, such as platform cars, wagons, carts, and representations of chariots, steam fire-engines, etc., etc. In fact the combinations are unlimited — all the parts are held in place by friction. The whole is put uj^in a bos; representing a Railway Station, and forms a toy which NEVER TIRES. The toy is put up in two forms.

consists of ocer 120 pieces, affords a pleasure which is much increased by the fact that something is to be made — a specific object in view. It teaches the most prominent points which Architects must consider in building the immense structures tlial span our broad rivers, viz. : 1st, the Pier ; 2d, the Posts ; 3d, the Stringers ; 4th, the Approaches ; 5th, the Braces ; 6th, the Floors ; and, 7th, Orna- mentation, etc. The building of this beauti- ful miniature Bridge requires the observance of all these points as truly as does the build- ing of the large and structures referred to. The various parts are'sb ^impl^,' and plainly suggest their places and Uses, that the illus-' trated chart given with each set i^ all thajt i^ necessary. Besides the Bridge, many hew and attraCliye designs can be made from t^e detached 'pieces, which will readily be dis- covered by the ingenious boy or girl who be- comes the fO'rtunate possessor of this set;

Half the noise in tlae School Room is produced by rattling slates. This is all remedied by using the Andreics' Slates. They will not rattle in their frames, and the frames will not rattle on the desks. If the slate is dropped, it is iwt broken and the noise is muf- fled and slight.

We offer Andrew's Slates as the best School Slates ever put upon the market. They are an A 1 quality of slate, cemented into solid hard wood frames, the corners mortised, tenoned, and carefully glued together, surrounded by strong felted or corded bands glued I and nailed on, which project beyond the surface of the frame, and render the Slate noiseless if dropped. In one side of the frames is a deep cavity inclosing a strong spring, which receives and retains the pencil when not in use. -Size 5x 7 per dozen, $1 40

Ttie Bonanza Money Holder.

An article for carrying smal,, pieces oj coin in a compact form in tJie porkei.

The inconvenience of carrying a lot of small change loose in the pocket is known by everybody. It is difficult to find a five cent nickel or a ten cent piece without diving into your pocket three or four times, and then you are obliged to pull out everything, very often dropping two or three pieces of money before finding what you want. I^p",i ■*

The Bonanza' Money Holder is a small nickel-plated Tube, which holds the coin in a compact form, registering the amount of cash on hand, and is always ready. It is worked by a spring on the, inside, which presses the coin to each end. By a| slight pressure of the thumb on the top, you can slip a piece off into your hand, and another appears in.|its pli^ce. Every time a coin is taken off the gauge raises one notch,, ancj indjcates , the number left. This can tie done as fast as you can count. It, is an article that ever^^body needs and will have wh^n tjiey se,e how handy and cony^nji^nt. it is to cany in the pocket.

The O^'iental Ball Trick.

700— The won- derful Obedient Ball, or Oriental Bdl Trick, is made from a pe- culiar solid, hard wood, and its brilliant color gives it a very at- tractive appear- ance. Its action is a Ways as sure as fate. At the word of the per- former, it moves either fast or slow on the string, and stops suddenly at word

-J I .of command.

•>!i.l. It ha-< an excit- ing feature about it which is often of great utility to the per- former. Should an outsider desire to try the trick, the performer without hesitation gives it into his hands. The novice puts the ball ih position, and, with a' look of gratified triumph, prepares to manipulate it, when lo ! the ball descends with a crash upon the toes of the now agonized aspirant, who drops the apparatus in disgust, and limps painfully away, amid the boisterous laughter of the audience.
