that I shall not be compelled to
marry one of my own sex"

Pepper, chat little temper is a
bad thing in q woman?" Certainly
not, ma'am," replied gallant philo-
sopher; lit is a good thing, and she
ought never to lose it."

armful of my shingles on Sunday?'
Why, SIR, mother wanted some
kindling wood, and I didn't want
to split wood On Sunday"
A lady, on being asked by q
gentleman, what do you hold on
the question of female suffrage p

A Genuine waItham Watch
Is interchangeable, like Springfield rifle
that is, any part of ono Watch is exactly
like tho same part in another and if ten
Watches of one grade We're taken apart,
and the screws, wheels, springs, &c, were
mixed together, ten watches could be
made by putting thase parts together
again, withuot any reference to their
former combination. This isa
GREAT ADVANTAGE;
For, if any part of a Waltham Watch is
injured we can always replace it at a
Tr.fiag Expense.

We have sent out over Fue thousand of

A Few Enterprise.

A BOUT three years since, there was organ
IA ized in the city of Now York, among the
most wealthy and prominent business men of
that wealthy and busy city. company, to com
mence the manufsoture OF the I0.prored .SeUing
Machine, rokich should lead tie World.
Awaiting themselves of the experiences of all
the pioneers who had introduced Sewing Ma
chimes, more or less crude and imperfect, AM of
their new and most valuable patents, owned and
controlled only by themselves, this new company
felt at the full fresh impetus and power, af-
forded by guaranteed success.
Years Of time and hundreds of thousands Of
dollars were spent in perfecting the massive Al
the delicate machinery which should turn out At
first, with mathematical precision, at least ten
com plete lnschines every hour. These IN achlnes
were to be finished with the same perfection of
mechanism and nicely of detail, as we may find
In the best chronOmeter clocks. A separate m a-
chine prod uces each separate parts and each the
exact duplicate of every other. But few COM
paratveIy of these IN achines have, as yet been
put upon the market. They are now being in
troduced and comment is everywhere emphatic
ally In their favor, so far as they have been tes
ted in comparison with other machines.
We have the demonstration of tho fact
that its stitch is the Strongest, Most Elastic aud
Most Practical, Of all The Stitches taken BY Ma
cbirery. That in capacity for work, it embraces
every variety of plain and ornamental, through
Gut the entire range Of family sewing. The
power required is very little indeed not half of
that required by many oilers.
The company is already well established in
success. They allow time to be spent in oon-
deming other mechines or questioning their
prsctioalities, and they are indifferent to compe-
tition and competitors, so far as attack or de-
fence is concerned. They will not compromise
their own reputation in an attempt to increase
their own patronage, by using sny disparaging
remarks or untruthful Representations, SO CON-
mon to the trade.
They employ the best talent that money can
procure, and will prosecute their business, based
on the absolute merit of their machine.
They are ready to give better terms and rates
to actire, energetic and responsible Agents than
others-and wish 10 secure the services of the
best business men throughout the country. They
want such q man in this town-who will step
forward and secure the confidence, corporation
and favor of this powerful and liberal company
and thus secure q permanent and profitable
business. They have just established General
Branch and Distributing Office in Chicago vhirh
is under the Superintendent of 7. @. EsrEs,
ESQ, who has been identified with almost the
entire sewing machine history in the West. We
wantto advise all interested in the subject ad-
dress him call on him. You will be thankful
for his assistance and satisfied with his deal
ings.
We give in the advertising column the cuts Of
some Of the stylos.
