"Tn ANsoN HARDY CUTTING MACHINEs are the best and cheapest low priced machine made, and havo a national repu tation for utility and durability."- The dectrotyper, Chicago.. THE ANSON HARDY PAPER CUTTER is by far the best machine which can be ob tained for a less price than one hundred dollars. It is of great strength. These machines have always tak-n the highest stand. It is the only machino to which is applied the Patont Movable Cutting Board. This device has a reputation of itself: by it, the cutting board can be in stantly and accurately moved, so that a perfect out is insured, This is a very im portant point in the maehine, and one that is possessed by no other. It greatly reduces the labor of preparation in work ing the paper backward and Jorward. We cannot too strongly recommend ithe advantages of this patent movable board. It is worth the prico of this machine, and purchasers should fully understand how highly it is to be valued."--Geo. P, RoiveU & Ob.'8 Newspaper Repouder and PrinfWr's Gazelle.
