"'72" Steam Washer, or, WOman'S
Friend.

A gentleman being Intercepted with ref
ference to washing clothes at his house, re-
piled: 81 know nothing about IL; the wo-
men always attend to that matter" How
true was his reply. How few men know
what the real labor of washing is. Let a
strong, muscular man bend over the steam
ing wash-tub, rubbing in the hot water ten
to twelve hours, and he woul find his pow
er of endurance unequal to the task; but
poor. fraiL. weak woman has this to dOhfty-
two days in the year, (often more .)with pre-
clous little sympathy or assistance. This
burden so long born by woman is now re-
moved, and she is relieved from this druid
gerry by the use OF the "'72 Steam Washer,
or, Woman's Friend" now being sold by
Mr.. and Mrs. n. N Bartlett of Niles, Ohio.

are Sentiments of the Heart
which Never Die.

One Of these, perhaps the most refined, is
a desire to preserve the lineaments Of the
dear ones who ave left the heArth-stone
and its pleasant associations, or who AVE
departed TO the spirit land" The child
who died in its young beauty and tnno=
cence; the father, mother, brother, sister OF
other loved ones from whom we are separa-
ted by death or otherwise. nv in our thots'.
They are imaged in the memory; but the
memory may become dimmed by g or
disease; but a true protrature, however,
cannot change, and continues a life-like
remembrance, bringing back the loves and
~yearnings OF days past and gone." This
kind Of protrature is made daily at Rioeis
Gallery. and thousands hav been made
happy during the last few years by having
~patronised this establishment and securing
just this kind Of work; others can do like
wise by calling on RICE-Artist.

False DelicaeT,

The friends ofthose whoare troubled with
bad breath and, through over-sQueamish-
ness, dislike to refer to Il, commit a positive
and cruel mistake, especially ifthey are
aware OF the merits and great efficacy OF the
fragrant SOzODoNT. This Is the true and
only remedy for the difficulty; there is no
valid excuse for a bad breath now.

Eccentrlcity.

The following singular instance of eccen-
tricity, illustrating the close connection of
this condition Of the mind with insanity, is
related by Professor Hammond in his work
on diseases of the nervous system. A lady
had since her childhood shown singularity
of conduct as regarded her table furniture
which she would have of no other material
than copper. She carried this fancy to
such an extent that even the knives were
made of copper. People laughed at her
and tried to reason her out of her whim,
but in vain. In no other respect was there
any evidence of mental alteration. She
was intelligent, by no means excitable, and
in the enjoyment of excellent health. An
circumstance started her in a new train Of
thought, and excited emotions which she
could not control. She read in the morning
paper that Mr.. Kopper-man had arrived
at one of the hotels, and she announced her
determination to call on him. Her friends
endeavored to dissuade her but without
avail. She went to the hotel and was told
he had just left for Chicago. Without re-
turning to her home she bought ticket for
Chicago, and started on the next train for
that city. The telegraph, however, over
took her, and she was brought back from
Rochester raving of her love for a man
whom she had never seen, and whose name
alone had been associated in her mind with
her fancy for copper table furniture. She
died of acute mania within a month.

EB- A miniature Dead Sea has been dis
covered in Nevada. 1t lies in an oval ba-
sin, 150 feet below the surface of the plain,
the banks shelving down with as much
symmetry as if fashioned by art. The
water of this lake is impregnated with sol
uble substances, mostly borax, soda and
salt, to degree that renders it almost
ropy with slime, and SO dense that a per-
son can float on it without effort This
lake has no visible outlet or inlet, but being
of great depth is probably fed by springs
far down in the earth. .i,4

and how many generations of mankind
have rejoiced in it; and among them all
the wise and the good and the great of h is
tory, with awe and admiration. In ancient
Egypt it was an object of Idolatrous inter-
est. 1t was then of brilliant red color,
but is now lustrous white; and the cause
of this change Of color, as well as the ma
ture and period of the revolution it denotes
in the star itself, is wholly unknown. It's
distance from our earth is not less than one
million three hundred thousand times our
distance from the sun; and its light must
travel twenty-five years to reach us. Anoth-
er circumstance of deep interest connected
with it is, that it has changed its position,
during the life of the human family, by
about the apparent diameter of the moon;
and that astronomers, detecting some irreg-
ularities in it's motion, have been convinced
that it had companion star which they
thought must be non-luminous, since their
telescopes could not detect it, But Mr..
Clark with his new and powerful acromatic
telescope, has found this neighbor of Sirius,
hitherto invisible, and verified the conclu-
sions to which astronomers had been led by
reasoning on the facts they had ascertained.
