Of divorce as the theme of his last lecture.
We seem to be approaching time when
lectures must be either on marriage and
divorce, like Mrs. Stanton's, Miss Edgar

and the like. or by people whose noto-

Mrs. Yelverton and a half score ofothcrs, or
by sages who, like Froude, have written up

Thousands of dyspeptics and other invalids are
now languishing in sick rooms, feeblv and list

foriorn condition solely TO Il want Of common pru

arm themselves, are the morbid elements that
peryade the atmosphere at this time of the year.

fact that Hostetter's Stomach Btters afford more

Every day, however, the number of these mar
tyrs to their own want of forecast dminishes.
Each succeeding season demonstrates more clearly
the inestmab,e value of the Btters both as an an
dote for the causes of disease, and specific for
its consequences. The miasma which generates
periodic disorders, rheumatism, liver complaint,
irregularty of the bowels and other physical dis
turbances, produces no effect whatever upon syss-
powerful vegetable medicine, and dyspepsia ner-
vous debility constipation, intermittent and remit

The Industries of HallOWell.
PAGE, WILDER & Co.'s OIL CLOTH WORKS.

I accepted an nvtation by the Junior member OF
the firm of Page, Wilder & Co., to take look at
their works this afternoon; and will endeavor to
give your readers brief sketch of my observations
We first enter large building some 40 #. by 100
and three stories hieh containing an engine of some
eight horse power, that is used to carry the ma
chinery, elevator, &c, where we find men putting
the burlaps through solution Of glue and water
called "siziDg;' after which they are drawn into
racks in pieces OF p yards each. When dry they
are rolled up several pieces together, and remain
so for some three months which is sort of an iron
ing process" 1t is then unrollcd and receives two
coats of paint, afterwards dried, and then passed
through machine that scours it perfectly smooth
then it receives a coat of paint on each side, and
dried again. 1t is rubbed smooth again and two
more coats of paint applied, when after drying it
s ready for the printing
We now pass to the printing room, where we find
four tables, some eight feet in diameter turning on
pivot and covered with the different kinds OF
paint to be used, and many blocks and pads
Two men stand at each table and put On the vari-
Gus colors, when it is passed into racks. IN the
next story the same number Of tables, &C., are
found and in the third story only two.
After remaining in the racks some two days they
are rolled up and taken to the bake house, so
Of 80 degrees, for three weeks, when they are re-
moved and vanished.
c. W. Strout, the juner member OF the firm, has
invented and procured patent machine for
vanishing carpets that obvates one of the great
Inconvenience that manufacturers have had to
contend with in the past.
In summer carpets have been spread in the field
adjoining, and u man would go ahead and pour the
varnish upon the cloth, and some four or five men
would follow with Brushes to spread it, while in
winter the process was very tedious, as it
was from necessity performed in the buildings
but with this machine three men win aceomphs III
as much as ten would by the old process, and do
the work much better. When quite hard it is run
through a machine of Mr.. Strouts invention, that
trims the edges hen it is ready for market. Other
labor-saving inventions have been Introduced re-
Gently, and an elevator we noticed quite an I'M.
portant auxiliary in raising material from one floor
to another The whole establishment is warmed bv
steam.
The burlaps, which form the foundation are manu-.
featured in scotland and opposed Dilute prob
ably not the same material ladies' switches how.
