ticing the publication of new love
story, says:
"All that stuff about woman's love
has been said over and over again a
hundred thousand times, to the great
detriment of the best interests of hui
mainly. There is no kind of necessity
of using the press to persuade silly
girls that it is very romantic and
womanly to love a scoundrcl to leave
her affections ungarded by reason and
experience, and drift hclplessly into
sin, shame and despair as an evidence
of her unsuspccting womanhood..
I" It's not true that woman's affection
is stronger or more durable than mans.
We think the opposite is the case,
and that two-thirds of all the women
who pine away or die of love, do 50
for the want of something better to do.
Everything calculated to make
love sickness a feminine requirement
is a great injury but to strew the
path of the suicide with the flowers Of
pocsy and romance is in a degree rep
rehensible.
"Thc best motto to guide young
girls through the mazes of love is,
Do right and trust TO God" A girl
that has done no wrong has little
cause to mourn over the ticklcness of
a pretended lover Better he should
change his mind before than after

YNilESE celebrated machines are in practical
L and profitable use in all parts of the civ
ilized world. nall the various trades and in
sewing every sort Of fabric, either of cloth or
leather, they have been fully tried and ap-
proved Sewing machines OF other manufac-
turers often fail to work. but Singers machines
always operate perfectly. being strong durable
and complete in continuance and workman
ship. perfect sewing machine kept employed
affords n clear profit Of 81 600 year; but an
imperfect one is Il cause of constant yeXation
and loss. The entire reliability of our ma
chimes is one great reason Of their unparalleled
popularity. Machines for family sewing, of
Il frail and delicate construction. are recon-
mcnded by other manufacturers. Such NIT
chimes are made to catch the eve not to per
form substantial work. The truth is that fam
lily sewing machines ought to be stronger than
any other, because they go into less siillful
hands than when sold to manufacturers, and
are used for a greater variety Of work. The
machines which have proved the best for all
other purposes must be best for family use
and they are Singers. The speed Of our ma
chimes has lately been doubled consequently
no other can compare with them in quantity of
work.
Es4ANew machines of the latest improved
style will be exchanged on liberal terms for
old sewing machines of our own make, or for

4 PICTURE OF NAroLEoN-The per-
sonal appearance of Napoleon, in the
last days of his power, is thus dcscrib-
ed by Lamartine
The empire had made him old before
his time. Gratiiied ambition, satiatcd
pride, the delights Of palace, a lux
urious table, a voluptuous couch,
youthful wives, complaccnt mistressos,
long vigiIs, sleepless nights, divided
between labor and festive pleasure,
the habit Of constant riding, which
made him corpulcnt, all tended to
deaden his limbs and cncrvate his
faculties. An early obesity over load
cd him with flesh. His cheeks, form
crly strcaked with muscles, and hol-
lowed by the workings Of his genius,
were broad, fall, and overhanging,
like those Of Ohio in the Roman med
ais Of the empire. An excess Of bile
mingiing with the blood, gave vel
lowish tint to the skin, which, at a
distance, looked like a varnish of pale
gold on his countenancc. His lips
still preserved their Grecian outline
and steady grace, passing easily from
a smile to a menace. His solid, bony
chin formed an appropriate base for
his Textures. His nose was but line,
thin and transparent. The palcness
of his checks gave greater brilliancy
to the blue Of his eyes his look was
searching, unsteady as awavering flame
---an emblem Of inquietude. His fore
head seemed to have widcncd, from the
scantiness Of his thin black hair, which
was falling from the moisture of con-
tinual thought. 1t might be said, that
his head, naturally small, had increas-
ed in size to give ample scope be-
tween his temples for the machinery
and combination Of a mind, every
thought Of which was an empire.
