Several Manufac­ turers have for a h u n d r e d ye ar s, doubtless, used the best material and labour at their command, but one and all have sacri­ ficed durability to beauty, and in their endeavour to produce a hand­ some looking ball have introduced such an excessiv< number of fin< stitches that gooc leather is positive­ ly cut to pieces, while the virtues of old fashioned cobblers’ wax have been altogether ignored and given place to wax which lias nothing but its dear white colour to recom­ mend it. An ex­ amination of any worn-out Cricket These Balls have obtained numerous testimonials, and are giving universal satis­ faction. They are used by the principal cricketers and clubs, and are acknowledged by the best bowlers to be unequalled. They can be obtained of all Athletic Outfitters throughout the world, and -wholesale of the Manufacturers. All should see that the Balls bear this mark w^ ou* whi°h none are genuine. Ball will rhow that it died of two c o m p l a i n t s—in tho swelling of the quilt, or inside, and Ihe bursting of the stitches, the latter being the natural con­ sequences of the former. W e have pleasure in stating we have discovered a remedy for this t w o - f o l d c o m ­ plaint. IVe can pre­ vent the swelling o f ihe quilt , or inside , and we guarantee tlwt all Balls bearing ihe above brand keep thtir form better than any oilier Ball.
