How to Tighten Woman's Labor.-It
"time is money" then everything that tends
to facilitate labor is a positive pecuniary
benefit to mankind. The best sewing ma
chine or churn is not "'good, strong
womaD," as experience proves. So SapoliO,
in enabling one woman TO easily do as much
cleaning of every kind in one dsy as two
women can do In two days with the scrub
bling brush ard soap, is positive blessing
to the human race. No woman who has
once used it will ever use anything else as
a substitute. Sold by all dealers. The
cheapest as well as the best cleansing sub
stance in the world. oc25 d1W&Y1t

wheat by canal at Underwater exceed the exports by
from 4OOOOO1 to 100000 bushels Taking the last four
years together the exports have exceeded the receipts
showing that the railroads supply the entire home
demand of the Eastern and Middle States. A similar
change appears the relative receipts and exports OF
