FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND

of their Machines in use, although having ex-
listed but SIR gears, while the Company which
claims to have the most in use has only about
twice that number, though having existed for
tscenty gears They are now manufacturing
over six hundred daily, or one per minute,
and at that rate can hardly supply the de-
mand.
Very many persons are in need of first
class Sewing Machine, yet do not feel quite
ready to pay the full price at once, and are
sometimes led into purchasing an inferior ma
chine, at less cost, because machine of some
kind is really needed in every family. And
then again some say, 81 will get me cheap
machine now it will perhaps do my work
at present, and | will learn to run machine
and sometime | will get better" TO all,
both high and low, we would say: When you
select Sewing Machine you should be as
particular as you need to be in selecting a
| family horse. See that it has Il reputation
unexceptional see that it is made for endur-
.dRce see that it is sound; see that il is always
ready 10 GO see that it has no bad tricks see
is in good health, So that it will not need con-
slant doctoring: see that you get one you can
depend upon TO do all the work, and do it
just when you need it done and above all don't
buy balky horse, nor Jalty machine.
poor Sewing Machine is worse than none
and a constant source of trouble. Many Of
what are called selling points in machine are
simply frivolous, and intended to tickle the
fancy of those who are sold II is no great
recommendation in a horse for family use that
it can walk on three legs, and so useless tricks
in a Sewing Machine should be avoided =
Substantial excellenc!es only can stand the
test of time and use. The Howe Machine has
stood the test, and to-day over four hundred
thousand are in use throughout the civilized
world u is not sold at an adgaaee Of
Fifteen Dollars over New York Prices,
| like some of its competitors, but is offered on
such easy terms that persons Of moderate in
come can obtain one by paying small monthly
installments, and thus in time become pos
sessed of a machine that Is not cheap in any
sense Of the word, but one that will earn its
cost many times over, and bea constant source
of relief and comfort.

A young lady named MAGGIE
LOCKE, of Fairfield, was accidental
ly shot in the face, at a pic, mic,
where the party were shooting at a
mark. The wound was severe, but it
Is hoped not fatal. :. We learn that
Mr.. }. M. Troxell had bis left leg
broken between the knee and ankle
on the 9Th inst He was near a
yearling colt that was tied, when the
the colt became entangled in the rope
and threw itself, falling on Mr.. Trox-
ell. The break is very bad one,
aud in his affection he has our sim
cere sympathy. Mr.. John Fry
berger, aged about % years, who
has been brakeman on the road
for several years, got one Of his feet
under the fiange of IA car wheel, where
it was badly crushed. Mr.. Temple.
ton cut the boot off the foot imme.
diately, when the foot turned black.
The flesh had burst through the skin
in several places. Mrs. Gregg
an old lady living west of Fairfield,
was severely bruised on Sunday last,
by being thrown from a wagon
backwards. The horses gave a sud
den start and caused her to fall. A
daughter of Mr.. George Knight was
thrown from horse on Monday last
dislocating her collar bone. Pei

An attempt is being made to have
the government pay for the cottor
destroyed at Columbia, South Caro-
lima, when Sherman marched down
to the sea, on the ground that it was
destroyed by our soldiers. We had
a talk the other day about the mat
ter with George A. Henry, of the
Keosauqua Republican. He was
Provost Marshall of that city at its
surrender and during it's occupan, y
10y our forces. He entered tine city
in company with the Mayor of the
place and Gen. Geo. A. Stone, com,
mander of the Iowa Brigade, six
hours in advance of the rest of our
troops. He says the long row OF
cotton bales had BE- en- fired and was
slowly burning. That was hours be.
fore a Federal soldier entered the
place. As the outer rappiugs burn,
ed off, fleeces of the burning cotton
were scattered abroad by the wind
and the burning of Columbia follow,
ed. And Its doom was not greatly
hiDdered by the released Union pris
oners and by intoxicated men, for
directly against the council of Gen.
Stone and Major Henry, who order,
ed the citizens to keep all liqTor hid,
the soldiers were treated by them to
the bucket full. -Gate city.

However humble the home may be,

The Des Moines Republican says :
A young lady in the house of Mr..
Brown attempted to start a fire by
pouring coal oil from gallon can,
nearly full at the time. The flames
ignited the oil, and an explosion fol-
lowed, the burning oil flying all over
the woman who was soon envelope ed
in flames. A scream from the victim
brought her sister to her aid, who
threw some bed clothing around her,
and smothe cred the flames before any
injury resulted. The bottom was
blown out of the can when it explo
ded. 1t seems strange to rel ate tha
neither the woman was hurt nor any
thing burned and still stranger tina
any one should attempt to pour OF
upon fire with the memory o
all the fearful disasters that have re
suited from it.

Every year increases the POPULAR
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by it's use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and 1 consider it tho BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

death, WHO stopped in aud legally pre-
vontod tho transfer Of bonds by tho
Union Truat Company, which tho ring had drawn
III order to mako their margins good. Tho loan
OF the Union Truat Company for tho Lake
Shore dividend has beou satisfactorily settled
by Vanderbilt, who has given his notes for tho

at 80, to the Receiver Of tho Company.
