HOW Funny Bill Made Five Dol
lars.


There resided some years ago, in the
old Granite State, a singular individual
called "Funny Bill" He boasted that
be could crack joke with the best on
EN-" But Notwithstanding his profess
sional ahlty fol listing his great desire
to lay by little silver ''now and then,"
as lie would say, gave rise to some pleas
ing anecdotes, and he occasionally found
himself ''sold." Among them is the fol-
lowing:
He was one day called to work with
several men engaged III making a road
through rich field, when one Fred Far
ley, who was not Oh frst-rate terms with
Bill, proposed playing a trick on him, if
al opportunity offered.
just then, seyela, large "grab worms"
were dug up, aud one Of the company
asked-a singular question, to be sure
if any one there had ever eaten aoorns
soup. But before any ony one could re-
ply, Fred called the attention of all, by
saying
"Bill, I'll give you five dollars to swal-
low one Of these worms"
Bill looked up hopefully and said:
"Will ye? Let's see money fust!
Certainly" replied Fred, at the same
time showing the money. "Mind, it
shall be your own, to keep"
"Wall," said Bill, dropping his shovel
and Struggling up his shoulders, "this
ere chap amt going to refuse money
what's thrown in his face, no how
And pointing to the man nearest him,
said: "Let this fellow hold the bill
while does the business. IN soon show
all of ye I'm not afraid of deyouring such
small game"
By this time all had stopped their
work, and were watching the movements
of Bill, who had already taken worm
in his mouth andwas end eavoring to swal-
lowit, but found it difficult, as it stuck in
his throat. He gagged-swallowed-
gagged again-and finally it went down.
The wager was won, much to the a.
musement OF the lookers-on. The money
was handed to him and received with ap-
parent satisfaction-while his counte-
nance showed his willingness to do the
same thing again for another V.
BILL" said Fred, suppressing his
laughter, did l not say that money
should be yours? 2"
"Sartain,' said Bill, rolling up his
bank note and putting itin his pocket
book as quickly as possible, seeming to
fear that he would get it back.
"And so it is yours" observed Fred:
"for your friend down at the village
gave me that very bill this morning, re-
questlng me to give it to you-saying he
had Ueen owing you that amount several
mouths, aud I'll. ashamed that it had re-
ma!ned aDpald 20 long r
1t is utterly Impossible to describe the
countenauce q B.!l au this annL unce-
ment. It's pe.tcr lancied than portray
ed on paper suffice it to say, tat very
little work was Ioue that day-there be-
ing more laughing than spading.

They are all made with the highest mechani.
cal skill, and all warranted to work well on all
kinds of goods, from the Lighest Fabric to
Heavy Leather. In particular, we would call
the attention of all to our new Family Sewing
Machine. 1t has been manufactured expressly
for Family Use, and has met with favor from
all 1t is SO simplihed as to render II almost
impossible to get out of order, or derange its
operations; indeed It is so simple as to astonish
one, that so small piece of mechanism will
sew.
Below, we giveia description of the different
styles of the edPatent. .,5s
No. / Is very COL venient style, which can
be worked by hand or foot, on OF Oh Its own
table. Fer convenience Of shipping, and also
for large manufactures, where 1t is necessary
to place a. number of Machines into long
bench, making one table answer for them all.
No. =, with Walnut or Mahogany Table,
either with or without Box Top, which locxs
down. Price 800, and $ll0.
No. 8, Same size as No.2, but runs with
belt, and at much higher rate of Speed: This
kind is well adapted to manufacturing Clothing
or Leather work. .a5}Y g4 s ri a..
This is really the cheapest Machine in the
market, as there is no work done on Sewing
Machine that it will not do. 1t is confidently
asseI ted that this Machine runs easier than any
machine now in use. Price, 800.
No. 4. This Machine has long arm, to &C.
commodate large work. 1t runs at high rate
of speed, runs easily, and is, without 4 doubt,
l
to the public. 1t is also peculiarly fitted for
plantation work, as it is very simple yet sub
stantial and durable, with but little liability to
get out Of order. Price, $3.50. .g&
No. S. This is new and cheaper style, and
a general favorite for Family, Light Leather,
and great variety of work. 1t has been gotten
up with reference to furnishing strong and
durable, yet light and tasty Machine, at a less
price than either of the above. 1t rams very
easy, rapidly, and is pronounced the best ma.
chine now in market, for $50. ..t5s..,
No. 6. This is Machine got up on an entire.
~ new principle. different from anything ever
before offered to the public, and we confidently
assert that, for family use it has not an equal.
1t is very light and tasty, runs very rapidly, is
almost noiseless in its operation, and uses
straight needle. 1t is so arranged as to be
utterly impossible for it to miss stitches. Ithas
a tension on both sides, and carries a large sup
ply of thread on the under spool. The motions
are gained by two small cranks that run with.
out perceptible noise. The two threads are
worked in such manner as never to both pull
at the same time, and consequently, little liable
to break. The seam is very elastic, and the
thread does not break in washing. 1t will dec
coarse work better than any cheap ma chine now
in market, as it uses silk, cotton, OF Linen with
equal facility. Price, $50.
