l take pleasure in recommending
your RosADALIs as a very powerful al

caseswith happy results-one in a case
of secondary syphilis, in which the
patient pronounced himself cured af-
. ter having taken FIVE bottles of your

improving under its use, and the in

Dr.. Sparks, of Nicholasville, Ky,

satisfactory results-as cleaner of

I have used seven bottles of Rosa

VXYOMAN'S WORK is NEVER DONE,-isa
w saying of the past. Woman's work
or at least that portion of it most dreaded and
continual-her sewing-is now speedily and
beautifully done by the aid of the Grover Baker
Sewing Machine, which, while it lessons the las
Dor, adds to the excellence of the sewing by tie
trength, elasticity and durability ofits work.
A CHILD CAN OPERATE A
GROVER & BAKER SEWING MACHINE.
1t sews from two common spools, makes q
stitch stronger than that made by hand, and Its
simplicity is marvellous in comparison to Its
capacity.
HEALTH, TIME AND MONEY
ARE ECONOMIZED
by the use of q Grover B Baker Sewing Machine
They are unlimited in their capacity, and une1
celled in their excellence. The merit of embro1d
ering-which these machines alone possess, and
which style of trimming is now so popular
renders them par excellence, the most desirable OF

There is a ray that cheers the heart,
Relieves it for a while,
Though sorrow crush it e'er SO low
IT'S woman's happy smile.
When time is wished to pass with speed,
What can the hours beguile,
And make them pass without regret,
/ Like woman's happy smile7
If friend forsake, II fortune frown,
81 And these we love revile, M
Still we're not friendless if we own
woman's happy smile.
And when life's journey nears Its end
She's there, devoid Of guile;
But in such scenes her heart is such
She cannot, cannot SMILE

TEE PACIFIC THEGRAPH.-There is q sharp
fight going on between the rival parties who
want TO lay cable across the Pacific ocean.
The leaders IN the hostiities are Major Perry
Med. Collins and Cyrus W Field Major Col
Ius wants charter, with an exclusive privilege
for certain number of years. He does not ask
for Government assistance beyond the use of
ships Of the Navy to make soundings and ascer-
tain The denth of the Pacific on the line where
the cable is to be laid Mr.. Field does not ask
for an exclusive charter, but be does ask a grant
Of land, without which he says the cable cannot
be laid Both of these gentlemen spend most Of
their time in Washington. and neither Of them
comes to New York without being sure that the
other can do no harm in his absence. The Chi
cago Tribune suggests that Mr.. Field shall have
bis desired land grant, and recommends that he
be voted strip fifteen miles vide on each side
Of his cable. Congress ought not TO be stlngy in
voting him the bottom of the Pacific ocean, and
might give him a strip hundred miles wide, while
it is about it. Field proposes 10 ally himself
with English capitalists. while Collins announces
his intention Of making the line exclusively
American. 10 view Of our relation with China
and the development Of commerce with that
country, the plan Of Major Collins would seem
to be the best especially as 1t does not ask for
grant of land or any other subsidy.

Your most obedieut servant,

IKKIsATIoS TUBEs.-A few years ago, 3 man in
one Of the Eastern States commenced the manufae-
ture Of irrigation tubes patented article, Of which
large numbers were sold and their use highly re-
commended by orchardist, uurserymen and others
who tried them. We never heard Of their being in
trodueed in this State, for which they seem to be
particularly adapted. They consist simply of a
straight tube OF cast or galvanized iron, wood or
pottery, IS inches or feet in length suj an inch or
so in diameter, with fuDnelshaped top, with or
without s movable cover. They cost only few
cents piece. Any farmer, tinmAn, or potter could
make them. When fruit or shade tree was planted
in place where ii required to be wstered, one of
these irrigation tubes set close by it, running
down among and below the roots, having the top
only above the ground. When it was required to
water the tree the water was poured from bucket,
hose, into the funnelshaped top of the irri-
cation tube and thus conveyed directly down among
the roots instead Of being split the surface and
wasted by evaporation. Liquid manures, soap suds,
etc, were applied in the same manner, without
waste. The tubes can be removed at any time when
no longer needed The result was three fold First,
much less water or liquid manure was thus required,
and no waste occurred: second. the roots of the
plant were thus led to strike downwards, following
the water it sank into the earth, instead of rising
to the surface upon which it was poured and where
they are liable TO be affected by every variation of
heat or cold, draught dsmpness, and thus sooner
than is otherwise the case reach depth where they
become Independent of artificial irrigation; third,
when liquid manures thus applied they reach the
roots they intended feed and the volatile por-
tions are not dissipated by evaporation, and they
enrich the subsoil penetat ed by the small roots in
stead Of the surface earth. Fruit and shade trees
thus treated surpassed all others irrigated in the
usual ways. f. BalefiH.
