The WEED SEWING MAcHrsR.-W.

HE WEED SEWING mAcHiNE.-We
have enjoyed the privilege Of examining
and testing this sewing instrument
thoroughly! II our opinion can be re-
lied upon, we must certainly pronounce
it one Of the most remarkable and COM
plste specimens Of mechanical csntri-
vance which sewing machine inventors
have ever produced. We looked for
the machinery" but failed to see any,
30 simple is it's construction. We in-
ouired about its Irregularities and
were informed it had none, but was a
matter of fact, common sense, reliable
affair, that was made expressly to sew
with, and RICH. we'll it performed its
functions. Since its introduction 10
publicity it has frequently been put in
competition with the other machines,
and seldom fails to win the palm for
superiority over them all. We CON-
mend the Weed" to all our friends
everywhere, who may be in need OF an
elegant, efficient and economical sewing
machine Catholic Mirror.

geant, sent us one Of the best arranged
and attractive bouquets made OF roses,
petunias and miguonette, it has been
our f.rtune to see this season. The
many colored petunias are arranged
with truly artistic skill so as to develop
their beauty by contrast. Friends you

Lis Uranium shoots, and he feels as if
he h d swallowed his boots. His name
it was called and he very soon STOOD

To tie Boys.

I WISH to call the attention of youths to
the importance of beginning life with
some definite purpose in view. With an
perience of half century, my observation
has led me to the conclusion that the
great mistake of large proportion of men
and women is their not starting Alright
in not duly considering in the beginning
what they are fitted for, or what their aim
should be. Boys are put into an occupa-
ton temporarily, or permanently, as 1t
were, by accident without thought of
their tastes or capacities, or any idea OF
whether the occupation is one of useful
ness to society, or even proper for them
selves.
think that to be of real use should be
the first thought in laying plans Of life,
and the prosperity of the individual will
follow as a natural consequence. l see
too many persons who grow up to man
hood with no trade or regular business,
except such as they may happen to light
upon, depending upon some kind of specu-
lation in what more Industrious persons
produce, instead Of applying themselves to
produce food, or such articles of necessity
as mankind are constantly demanding.
Such persons are the ones loUdest in their
complaints of 'hard times and the difficult
ty of getting along" A word to the wise
is sufficient-Rurdl NeSo Yorker.
