THE ELLIOT PATENT UPRIGHT PIANO,
JECONANT SC
Manufactured by the. ROGERS UPRIGHT PIANO Co., is opening a new era in' this department of mechanics, proving beyond the possibility of doubt that permanent tune may be secured to an upright piano. Instead of getting out of tune, incurring not only inconvenience but a large expense, this "ELLIOT PATENT " is a guaranty for perpetual perfect tune, after the stretch is once out of the strings. The sympathetic and singing qualities, the pure, artistic, piano tone, of this instrument, on which the development of musical taste and feeling so much depends, is all that musicians and amateurs seek or desire.

CHARLES H. ALLEN, -
Commissioners.
JOHN F. KENNARD, Supt. Oct. 23, 1878.
BOSTON FIRE-ALARM TELEGRAPH. - SPECIAL NOTICE.
The fact that an alarm-box is located near their residence, and where the key is kept, should be known to all persons, both male and female ; and the simple manner of giving an alarm in case of fire should be a matter of common educa- tion. The Board of Fire Commissioners recommend to all persons who may see this notice, that they make the necessary inquiries, to enable them, in case of need, either to get the key, and pull the box, or to direct others to do so. Time saved in this way may sometimes prevent a conflagration.
In case of fire, follow these
DIRECTIONS.
Get the key to the nearest box to the fire.
Open the box ; pull the hook all the way down ONCE, and let go.
Wait one fuil minute for the sound of the bells.
If you hear no sound, pull again, and the third time if you get no sound.
If you fail the third time, go to the next nearest box, and do the same there; but do not touch any other box if the nearest one gives the alarm.
After giving the alarm, remain a while if possible by the box, so as to direct the firenien to the fire.
SECOND ALARMS. - No person will give alarms for the same fire (after the first aların has been given), without an order from an Engineer; and the person so ordered will be sure to go to the same box from which the first aların was given, and report the same to the Chief Engineer. If, however, a fire breaks out while another is burning in a different section of the city, a second alarm can be given by a Police Officer without waiting for an order from an Engineer.
CAUTIONS TO PERSONS HOLDING SIGNAL KEYS.
1. Never open the box or touch the apparatus except in case of fire.
2. Never sound the alarm for a fire seen at a distance.
3. Be reasonably sure there is a fire before sounding the alarm.
4. Be sure your box is locked before leaving it.
5. Never let the key go out of your possession, except to some responsible person to give an alarm of fire: and be sure the key is returned.
6. If you remove from your house, or place of business, return the key to the Fire-Alarm Office without delay.

Dentophile contains no injurious substance of any description, being entirely free from all acids, or any thing of a hard or gritty nature. I have no hesitation in asserting that this preparation is fully equal, if not superior, to any preparation of its class now before the public.
