Self-Operating
Clothes Washer and Boiler +!
PATENT RIGHT SECURED.
The Best Labor-Saving Clothes Cleaner
ever invented.
Thomas Greene, sole Proprietor of the
Patent Right for the Pacific Coast.

There are but few inventions or discoveries
which produce complete revolution in any de-
partment of labor. To have supposed, ayear ago,
that the dirtest garment could be washed clean,
in twenty or thirty minutes, by boiling Alone
would have been regarded as an indication of in
sanity. But it has been demonstrated beyond apy
doubt that this process not only cleans the clothes
but that garments thus washed become whittier and
clearer the longer it is used. Some people suggest
that clothes will get yellow after awhile. by being
washed in this way but such a surposition has no
foundation in fact, and is contradicted by the ex
perience of every lady who has adopted this mode
of washing
everybody who has tried the machine in Shasta
have expressed themselves highly pleased with
Its operations. 1t must be seen to be fully appre-
ciated, as its full merits cannot be properly set
forth in an ordinary advertisement
Public and private tests have been given of this
apparatus for the last six months, and more than a
million of people have witnessed its success. Ten
thousand boilers sold in New York City in less
than five onths, from one stand, and at this time
the orders reach about hundred day. Nc
one ever used it as directed that did recommend
II. 1t has been recommended by more than five
thousand persons in less than six months Among
the names are those Of the most distinguished cit
liens of the United States but the best recommen
dation is to take the boiler and use it yourself Do
just as you are directed and you will be more than
satisfied. 1t appeals to us all as matter of econ
omy, and can be shown to be the best kind of an
investment 1t will return a yearly dividend in
cash of TWO HUNDRED PER CENT. Eon the
money invested. For instance, we will suppose
your white clothing such as bed and table linen
ladies' and gentlemens' wear, and childrens' cloth
ing, only cost you $40 a year. They will last twice
as long washed in this way as by the old method.
Thus, you actually $40 a year by investing 10
OF 200 per cent. annually. There is no family
scarcely but spends than here stated but this
is taken as very low average of this branch of
family expense. Added to this is the great con-
venience and comfort of the thing which, all taken
together, makes it luxury which nc. family can
well afford to be without.
This Boiler sells the best of any article ever offer
ed to the public. Anybody after trying it fairly
will not let it go out of of the house.

Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and COnsllmptiOn.

Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through Il long
series of years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estma-
tion, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the varlous affections
of the lungs and throat have made it known a re-
liable protector against them. While adapted TO
mder forms of disease and TO young children, it IS
at the time the most enectual remedy that can
be given for incpent consumption, and the dam
gerous affections of the throat and lungs. As pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Group. it should
be kept hand i'll every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption Is thought in
curable Still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry PectOrnf. So complete Is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pee
fOraI they subsde and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great pro
lection from it.
asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PecfOrdI in small and frequent doses.
So generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, do more
than the public that its qualities are fully
maintained.

from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic
poisons.
As its name implies, it does Curr. and does not
fail Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bismuth,
Zinc nor any other mineral or poisonous substance
whatever, it in nowise Injuries any patient The
number and importance of its cures in the ague dis
tricts are literally beyond account, and we believe
without parallel in the history Of Ague medicine.
Our pride is gratified by the acknowledgements we
receive of the radical cures effected in obstinate
cases, and where other remedies had wholly failed.
Unacclimated persons, either resident IN, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be pro-
tected by taking the AGUE CURE daily.
For Lirer Complaints. arising from torpidity
of the Liver It is an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it is
an excellent remedy, producing many truly re-
markable cures, where other medicines had failed.

Directions.

Fill the boiler with soft water to within about
three inches of the top of the inside boiler 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
bois over raise the lid.
Keep up a hot fire for twenty minutes. Then
take the clothes out and Immediately SUDS them
through in soft water. If any shade of the dirt
remains. few rubs will 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-
duce 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. If the
washing be 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 soiled 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 would nearly fall to pieces
ifwashed in the ordinary way, may be was he'd per-
fectly, without injury, by this process The almost
absolute necessity of using soft, or "brokep y
water, is so well understood as to hardly need
mention here.
No machine ever invented will entirely remove
the streaks from dirty Wristbands and Collars
This Self-washing Boiler more nearly does it than
any other device. Should shade streak remain,
IL i'll be found to be so reduced and softened as to
disappear without the use Of a 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
sing gle year, in almost any family, to say nothing
of the important consideration cf saving labor.

CrRcUsEs IN CoNNECTIcUT.-The agent
of circus troupe now in Connecticut,
says that the piety prevalent in the state
does not hinder people from coming to
his circus, but fills them with consclen-
tious doubts, which it is expensive aliay-
ing. He applied, not long since, to some
maiden ladies for permission to put up
his bills on their barns. They refused
absolutely !; their mother was in very poor
health, and would certainly die if any
barn on her premises was put to SO i'm
moral a use. On mention of $40 for the
privilege, however, they ventured to
speak to the old lady, and his circus bills
soon adorned those barns. He paid 800
at another time to put up his bills around
small church. He says it cost the
showmen $4,000 to get bill allowing
their exhibitions through the Legislature
aud he seems to have imbibed the impress
sion that that Legislature represented the
morality of the state.

THE VERMONT HORSE STOCK Com.
FANY.-A meeting of the directors and
stockholders Of the Vermont Horse Stock
Company was held at Rutland on Tues
day, the 18th inst. A goodly number
were in attendance, and a deep interest in
the enterprise was manifested by every
one present.
The lists of subscriptions to the capital
stock, which was unconditional, footed up
$4,000. There were also several lists not
returned to the secretary. There were
reliable offers made to swell the capital
stock to over $4,000, on condition that
the company locate their premises at a
given place. Although this would fulfill
the demands of the charter, it was not
thought best to make any move to locate
the premises until the subscriptions to the
capital stock reach well up toward $780,
900. It was the universal opinion OF all
present that to make the movement a liv-
ing institution, and universal and last
ing benefit to our State, capital stock of
100000 is needed. No doubt was ex-
pressed but that the amount could be OBJ
tanned in the State by close and efficient
canvass. Col Merrill, the President, and
L. T. Tucker, the Secretary, were appoint
ed committee to employ at least four
| efficient canvassers and set them 10 work
at once to canvass the State for that pur-
pose.
! Hon. Edwin Hammond said that $780,
900 could be we'll employed in the enter
prise, and that if the company would see
to it that there was capital enough to Sc
cure 1000 acres of best Vermont land and
erect suitable buildings thereon, stock
with the best horses for all work that can
be had, then breed intelligently, always
retaining the best animals to breed FROM
that the company need have no fears about
selling their horses; that they would very
soon take the lead in producing the best
horses, and all the world would soon know
it. He stated also that the horse is the
worst bred animal we have, even our
chickens and pigs are bred with more
care, and to improve race of animals
takes time and capital, but when the sue
cess is gained it pays, and that hand
somely.
