"Good morningi my dear Mary" said
married lady to her most intimate friend, as
they met one day at the house Of the latter, "I
am come to ask you to go in the country with
me the week after next, to visit our mutual
friend, Mrs. H. Now don't say NO. for
have set my heart upon il, and the conse-
quences of a denial on your part might prove
serious" "0h should so love to go but
there is all my summer sewing to be done, and
1 have hardly commenced yet. 1t seems as
though my children were scarcely fitted for tho
winter, and here it is about summer. 1t is easy
for you, who have no children, to talk about
visiting in the country, but what is to be done
with all my sewing2" "Can not you hire
sesmstress?" al might, possiblyj but while
she is here must bo with her, to fit all the
work; then it takes so long, even with seam
stress, that get fairly discouraged. Obi dear,
what slaves we women arep" "Why don't you
persuade your husband to buy Setring Ma
chine7" ''I have tried to; but have given up
all thought of ever getting one. You know
his business, though afording comfortable
living, does not warrant his expending 500
in Sewing Machine; besides, he thinks it
wrong to do so. He says the price is too high,
and that he will not encourage the manufacturer
in a monopoly which takes from poor sewing
girls their only means of relief from wearying
toll with the needles and believe he is right,
too, and we have quite dropped the subject for
the present"
"But you need not pay 800 for Sewing
Machine, nor the half Of it; you can, to my
certain knowledge, get just us good Se,ring
Machine as ever was made for $35." ais that
true? Where, OIL where2 for mover dreamed of
such thing" "Why, at w. e. BRAMAN's, cor
ner of Fourth and Walnut streets. 1 was in
there with friend yesterday, and saw them,
and assure you they are the s'ceetest machines;
so quiet and rapid they run that you can
scarcely hear or see them, and such beautiful
work as they do. l know a lady who has one
of them, and she says it is n perfect treasure
and 1 thought of you, with all your little
children, and said, Now, there's just the thing
for MARY Come, put on your bonnet and
~
name of this wonderful cheap machine? 1t is
called the tBoUDOIR MACHINE, invented by
one HARRIS, believe; but come, for must be
going. have some shopping to o."-[Exeunt
Ladies' Reader, go thou and do likewise.
To Preserve and Dress the Hair.-One
of the best dressings for the hair ever invented
is BUBNETT's COCAINE. tits we'll known that
there is n principle in Cocoa-nut Oil, owing to
which the hair Of the natives of the South
Seas, who useit, remains glossy and never falls
off. BURNETT has greatly improved this oil by
chemical publication, and it now not only thor
oughly cleans the hair, forming a lather when
rubbed on, but keeps it glossy, slightly damp
and in form as brushed for long time. La
dies dressing their hair elaborately, for the
evening, will find that it will keep it in shape
for hours. Its qualities as preventing the hair
from falling arc truly emarkable.-Philadcl-
