The tendency of womankind is
to magnify tritles. There's a wO-
man in Illinois who wants a di-
vorce simply because her husband
beats her with an iron bootjack.

The Singer Manufacturing
Co.'s New Family Sewing Machine
Sewing Machine Sales for
1871.

TFNhe magnitude to which the Sewing Ma
i chine business has grown Is only sur
passed by the rivalry ofthe various Compel
itors. few of whom are unfamiliar with the
numerous articles resOrted to for the COM
mendatiOn and sale of the particular ma
chine sought to be sold.
If the number of sales be any criterion of
the merits of the different machines, it can
not be denied that the Singer, owing to the
popularity of what is known as our New
Family machine far sUspasses all others,
for We sold in 1871 over fifty-two thousand
more machines than any other company, as
shown by sworn returns of the companies,
which returns are made under the licenses
granted them by the owners of the sewing
machine patents.

Arrested for Murder,
Or
Adventures Of a Young Man.

II HAD been staying at Geneva during
Il the autumn months, passing my time
very pleasantly, now in boat on the lake,
watching the golden sunset, or perhaps in
the moonlight night, when at each splash
of your oar there arose thousands of golden
watery gems which, ere they fell, were sill
vered by the moonbeams. But the evenings
were now becoming chilly, and knew that
before long the days would also be cold; so
l bade adieu to the fair lake, and took my
way homeward.
arrived in Paris intending to stay only
few days, but was disappointed, as
some little business | wished to transact
there kept me lingering day after day. Now,
this would have been pleasant enough at
any other time of the year, but at this sea-
son how could l amuse myself, if it were
not for the theatres and the bal de Popera |!
One night, while the cold rain beat against
my window -panes, and the wind, still colder,
whistled in fearful gusts up the street, l lay
on my lounge poring over Victor Hugo's
last novel, and trying to understand it, the
wood fire glowing on the hearth, / dropped
my book and looking at the clock, saw it
was just quarter past seven; then 1
yet too late; and so I decided / should go
to the Opera Comique, as / had seen on a
poster they were going to play "Une mutt
au Chateau" which thought might coun-
teract the dullness the rain generally leaves
me. Well, enjoyed myself pretty well,
for meeting a friend there, we passed our
time very pleasantly, especially between
the acts, when we usually descended to for
tify ourselves with punch and cigarettes,
before leaving the theatre and emerging in
TO the night-air.
At length the play was over, and we
went into cafe near by and refreshed our
selves still more, and played quiet game
of ecarte. After the second game was
over, my friend proposed we should GO
somewhere and try our luck, or, in other
words, eight the tiger" agreed and he
hailed fiacre. We got in and he told the
driver to let us out at some number do
not recollect, in Rue Feuye des Petits.
Champs. We ratified along at a good pace
and after some time, drew up before very
respectable-lool1in house, in which there
appeared no light and whose inmates
thought had long since retired to rest; bu
when we stood on the upper steps coult
see there was a blind over the fan-light
through the chinks of which came dusky
red glimmer. My friend rang the bell; the
sound Of footsteps followed, and the doc
was opened, then, after few whispered
words from my friend, we were shown VI

The Universal Mother.
BY j. b. MCCONNELL.

Underyon cloud, in cool and quiet shelter,
The happy herd lies browsing through the noon
While i the dusty way must trudge, and swelter
Beneath the fervd sun of midday June.
Like some great bird the clouds above them hover
'Tis Nature broods them fondly with her wings
While ], who all my life have been her lover,
Must toll afar from shade and cooling springs.
mighty Nature! kindllest OF mothers!
Breathe cooling airs as soft as zephyrs mild;
Spread wide your wings, that among the others
May share the shelter with your humblest child
She hears the suppliant, travel-worn and weared,
Her soft sigh rustles in the breezes bland;
YOnder is looming in the distance arid,
The great Rocks shadow in the weary land!
