Directions.

Fill the boiler with soft water to within about
three inches of the top of the inside b er. Slice
up one pound bar of good hard soap.
Bring the water to boil, and then place the
clothes in the hot water. The water will imme-
diately pour over the shell all around, and if it
boils raise the lid.
Keep up hot fire for twenty minutes. Then
take the clothes out ard Immediately SUBS them
through in soft water. If any shade of the dirt
remains. few rubs viii take it all out Then
rinse them in clean water, wiring dry. and the wash
ing is done. Give particular heed to the following
SUGGESTIONS.
The clothes need not be wet before placing them
in the Boiler. 1t is of vital Importance to THOR
OUGHLY SUBS the clothing after boiling. Every
lady knows that the least particle of suds left in
the clothes to dry will cause the clothes to look
yellow. brisk fire is important in order to pro-
duee rapid boiling Time may be saved by stirring
or turning the clothes occasionally while boiling.
The cover should not be removed, except when
necessary in order to insure quick work. II the
washing be a large one, the clothes should be as
sorted, as dirty shirts, for instance, will require
double the time of sheets, pillow cases, napkins,
&c.
Articles much soied may be left in for second
boiling White fannels may be beautiful washed
without FULLING) by this process. They
should be put in when the water is hot, and rinsed
out in hot water.
Colored clothes should not be mixed with white,
and unless the colors fast they should never be
washed by this process. The most delicate laces,
cambrics. -&c such as would nearly fall to pieces
if washed in the ordinary way, may be was he'd per-
fectlv without injury, by this process The almost
absolute necessity of using soft, or "broken," I"
water. is so well understood to hardly need
mention here.
Nomaehine ever invented will entirely remove
the streaks from dirty Wristbands and Collars
This Self-washing Boiler more nearly does it than
.ny o,ber device. Should shade or streak remain,
IL i'll he found to be so reduced and softencd to
disappear without the Of wash-board, by
merely rubbing them with the hands, thus avoiding
all the wear and tear of clothing by washing. 1t
has been carefully estimated that clothing receives
more than ONE-HALF ITS WEAR by the old
process of RUBBING, and consequently will last
twice as long if washed by this new process, which
alone would pay for Boiler many times during
single year, in almost any family, to say nothing
of the important consideration cf saving labor.

Mccormick, against John Strachan,
of Mineral Point, in equity, came up
yesterday on motion of complainants
for an injunction against defendant
and appointment of receiver, and
the same having been argued by
Finches, Lynde and Miller for com
plainants. and Messrs. Palmer,
Hooker and Pitkin for defendant
the court thereupon allowed the in
junction, and also appointed Fred
erick G. Smyth, of Madison, receiver.
This is a very important case, in
volving nearly 100000 in amount,
and grows out Of transactions while
defendant was acting as the agent of
complainants in the sale of their
harvesting machines during the
years 1867, 1868 and 1869. The or
der appointing the receiver requires
the defendant, StIachan, forthwith to
turn over all notes, accounts, ma
chimes and other property In his
hands, belonging to the complain
ants, to the said receiver, Smyth /;
and the injunction allowed restraints
the defendant Strachan from inter

They picture q small and poor

from rank to rank, from battalion,

stirred simultaneously the life blood,
let us bring together our votive offer

lay our tributes Of floral wreaths and
unfadng evergreens upon the graves
of those whose clay sanctifies the sod
Of our cemeteries, while their spirits
have assembled to claim the reward
due TO brave endeavors and noble
sacrifices.
Let us cordially invite all good
citizens who are bound together by
love of our common country, to unite
with us in the observance of the GER
emonies Of the occasions. Let the
old mourn for the pride of the land
who have fallen; let the young drop
a tear on the green sward which COW
ers the remains Of so much honor and
fidelity yet let all-old and young
rejoice that they live to see the
glorious result of so much labor and
suffering, "in orr country and ander
