COME AND SEE, AND SATISFY YOURSELVES.

THE latest invention of the age: suitable for Parlour, Drawing Room or Conservatory.

No Smel No Smoke No Danger 11 These. WATER FOUNTAINS are the result of a long series of scientific experiments only just arrived at the acme of perfection. The motor power consist of miniature engine, propelled by hot air generated by a spirit lamp. The force of the engine is sufficient to rales a jet of water several feet in the air, being regulated, as far as ten feet; by the raising or lowering of the flame of the lamp. It takes but a few minutes to set the machine in motion. No special attention re quired, save to trim the lamp once in 24 hours, The Fountains are of tasteful design and are arranged for the reception of aquatic plants, or an aquarium, to suit the pleasure of the possessor, and are made as strong and durable as iron, East Point For Particulam, enquire on lifetime and cannot get out of order.
