TEE QUAKER MEETING. 1888

BY JOIN G. WHITTIER.
Fair First-day mornings, stepped in summer
calm,
Warm, tender, restful, sweet with woodland
balm,
Came to him like some mother-halowed
psalm.
To the tired grinder at the noisy wheel
Of labor, winding off from memory's reel
A golden thread of music with no peal
OF bells to call them to the house of praise,
The scattered settlers through green forest
ways,
Walked meetingward. In reverent amaze
The Indian trapper saw them from the dim
Shade of the alders, on the rivulets rim,
Seek the Great Spirits. house 10 talk with
Him.
There, through the gathered stiffness, multi
piled
And made intense by sympathy, outside
The sparrows sang, and the gold robin cried
A-swing upon his elm. A faint perfume
Breathed through the open windows of the
room
From locust trees heavy with clustered bloom
Thither, perchance, sore-tried professors came,
Whose fervor jail nor pillory could tame
Proud of the cropped ears meant to be their
shame.
Men who had eaten Slavery's bitter bread
In India's isles; pale woman, who had bled
Under the hangman's lash, and bravely said
Gods message through their prisons iron bars;
And gray old-soldier-converts, scanned with
scars,
From every stricken field Of EngIand's wars
Lowly before the Unseen Presence knelt
Each waiting heart, till, haply, some one felt
On his moved lips the seal of silence melt.
Or, without spoken words, low breathing stole
OF diviner life from soul to soul,
Baptised in one tender thought the whole.
When shaken hands announced the meeting
Ger,
The friendly group still fingered near the door,
Greeting inquiring, sharing all the store
OF weekly tidings. Meanwhile youth and
maid
Down the green vistas of the woodland strayed,
Whispered and smiled and oft their feet de-
layed.
And solemn meeting, summer skyland wood
Old, kindly faces, youth and maidenhood,
Seemed like Gods new creation, very good.
And greeting all with quiet smile and word,
Pastorious went his way. The unscared
bird
Sang at his side, scarcely the squirrels stirred
AT his hushed footstep on the messy sod;
And whereso'er the good man looked or trod
He felt the peace of Nature and of God.

A WORD In REGARD
TO THE
Sewing Machine Business

THE SEWING MACHINE is one of the
greatest improvements of the age, and at this
day and age of the world every family must
and will have one. This fact appears to be
perfectly understood by all Sewing Machine
Companies, consequently every company is
making every effort in their power to put
their machines forward, and to make sales as
rapidly as possible. They employ every per-
son they can get, and three-fourths of those
employed are not fit for the business, conse-
quently the country is now 'overrun with men
and boys representing themselves as Sewing
Machine Agents,and everyone claiming to have
the best machine, when, in fact, they know
nothing about machines, consequently the
business has become a nuisance-it is over
done and overrun with unprincipled agents,
and almost every farmer breads to see one
stop at his gate.
But to lay all prejudice aside, the New vii
son is the only First-cIsss Machine in America
that is sold at reasonable price; price with
in the reach of every family. The New VIII
son stands to-day at the head as being the best,
the simplest, the easiest to manage, the emost
durable, and by far the cheapest. The Wilson
now costs $500 more to manufacture than anv
other machine in America, and is sold for
S25.OO less than any other first-cIass machine.
This simply because it is not in the "Cou,-
bination." This machine is sold for Just what
it is worth, while all others are sold from
$500 to $4,000 more than they are worth.
The undersigned has been selling the Will
son for one year at his Grocery and Crockery
Store in Fremont, and has sold Five Hundred
Machines, and nearly all have been sold in
Sandusky County, and have never yet had
an agent out soliciting sales or boring the peo-
pie to buy. Every machine has been ordered.
This, think, is the largest sale that has ever
been made in the county. This fact of itself
is certainly sufficient evidence that the ma
chine is good one. All other companies have
drummed and bored the people nearly to
death to sell their machines, and in very Inany
instances people have bought simply to get nd
of the agent Now, we claim that the proper
way, and the only way, to buy machine, is to
go town and see and try all the machines and
select for yourself machine in the same
way that you buy dress, or set of dishes.
or dollars worth of sugar. There are now
some six or eight different kinds of Sewing
Machines represented in this city, try them
all, select for yourself, and do not be hum
bugged by agents, and nine out of every ten

In the Winter mornings, the wife,
perhaps, goes out to milk in the sta
bic with lantern, while her daugh-
ters get breakfast. By 8 o'clock,
the house is "swept and garnished, y
and the motherly hands are ready
for several hours sewing before din
ner, laying by huge piles Of shirts
for the hot weather. Not much
work is put upon the garments of
the family, nor has the sewing ma
chine been in general use until re-
Gently, although a seamstress or tail
Dress is sometimes called in. At
the Spring cleaning, the labors of
the Women-folks are increased by
whitewashing the picket-fences.
Soap-making comes in March, before
the care of the garden begins to
press. Here success is so uncertain
that it is deemed q matter of luck
and chance. The soap must always
be stirred in one direction, and a
sassafras stick is thought to possess
sovereign virtues for the process.
A smart house-keeper can make a
barrel Of soap in the morning, and go
a-visiting in the afternoon.
During the harvest season the
household labors are frightful, but
the brOiling and baking in the hot
weather are cheerfully done for the
men folks, who are sWeltering in tor
rid fields and sitting barns. Four
meals are the rule at this time, and
"a piece" is sent out as early as 9
O'Clock in the morning, A Dutch"
girl thinks nothing of making fifty
pies in a week, and with a pie at
every meal, they are sure to come to
a good market.
Apple-butter, as a sauce made of.
apples boiled in cider is called, has
been a great ordinance with the ro-
bust Germans, though falling of in
late years, on account ofthe scarcity
of the fruit. Two bushels and a
half Of cut apples are enough for a
barrel of cider. In a few hours the
apples will be all in the great copper
kettles, and then you are obliged to
stir for dear life, until on taking out
a little on dish, you find the cider
no longer collects round the edges,
but all forms "a simple mass. The
work is then done, and you have on
ly to dip it out in the earthen yes
sells, and, when cold, store it in the
garret, with the hard soap and bags
of dried apples and cherries, perhaps
with the hams and shoulders, that
are there waiting for ''the good time
coming" The writer speaks of a
specimen Of apple butter preserved
in the Lancaster Museum, which
dates from the time of the Revolu-
ton, a prodigy as Gonderful as
the blood Of st. Januarius at Naples.
