a WONDERF'ttL INVENTION. $

a WONDERtTL INVENTION. Ss..s. Z.
An invention all frugal wives will
appreciate-in fact, all article that even
rivals the sewing machine in usefulness
is now on exhibition ut the Broadway,
store of the WILSON, Sewing Machine
Company, in thisc city; yet tits SO won
derfully simple that it can scarcely he:
cl:lssed us All inventions and :tTwonder5
to everybody that it was not dlscoverptl=
years ago. The Invention consists of>a
very simple little attachment to the.
Wilson shuttle sewing machine for:
darning all kinds Of rips, tears, worn.
out places, etc, in clothing, table and
bed linen, stockings, underwear, etc. ):
in the same manner that it is done by
hand and leaves the repaired part scarce
ly dlscernible: The operator of the sew
ing machine can darn 4 large sized
hole in !. bed sheet or table cloth almost
instantaneously. 1t is to be regretted,
however, that this wonderful invention
is patented aud owned by the. Wilson
Sewing Machine Company, of Chicago,
ILL.,, who will not permit its use except
with one OF its make Of sewing machines,
which, the Company's manager states,
is fur"is ished with each Of the Wilson
shuttle sewing machines, without extra
price. Truely, this is il golden nest
egg for the Wilson Sewing Machine
Company, and, it is said, they are run
ming their works day and night and
making and selling 800 machines Il day.

PAYING Fon Your PApER.-The
following very apt comparison repre-
sents 50 truthfulIy the newspaper busi-
ness that we produce it for the benefit
cf delinquent subscribers:
We suppose many people think that
newspaper men are persistent luns,
LIT II farmer place himself in similar
business position, and see it he would
not do the sane. Suppose he raised
one thousand bushels Of wheat and his
neighbor should come and buy Il busl,-
FL, and the price was only small mat
ter of two dollars or less. and the
neighbor Says, II will hand you the
money i'll few days." AS the farmer
did not want to be small about the mat
ter, he says, ''all right.'' and the man
leaves with the wheat. Another comes
in the same way, until the whole one
thous md bushels Of wheat are trusted
out to one thousand different persons,
and not one Of the purchasers concerns
himself about it, for it is 4 small
amount he owes the farmer, and, of
course, that would not help him any.
lie does not realize that the farmer has
frittereh away all his large crop of
wheat and that it's value is due him in
Il Thousand little driblets, and he is Sc
| rlously embarrassed ii: his business, he
cause his debtors treat it us il small
matter. But if all would pay him
promptly, which they could do as we'll
us not, it would be Il very large amount
to the farmer, and enable him to carry
on lis business without difficulty. Tre
above comparison is to true Of the diff.
culties that newspaper men have to
contend with,
1t is said that Spiritualism is the re.
ligion Of at least ter millions of the
people of this country, but the state
ment is not creditable. Paul Pho

Why not credtahlr? Have you look.
ed up the facts? Ten millions arc
claimed in America and twenty mil
lions III Europe. Why longer ignore
the most wonderful fact Of the age
which is sweeping around the earth
like " prairie fire? Why not give tho
news of Spiritualism as of every Other
movement, and us the Cincinnati En-
quirer, Chicago Times, Boston Herald
and some other papers do?-Worthing

Don't he too severe, friend ADVANCE
When Spiritualism becomes ''popular'
those papers which now taboo it vii
''come in." But we don't want it pop
u'ar on that very account. 1t embrace,
all truth, and that is enough Banner
of Light.
'Popularity' is just what we have tt
fear. Should it become popular, TIN
priests will cease fighting it, will pre-
tend to embrace it and will strangle i
as they did Primitive Christianity
Within less than 100 years after Christ
the priests had strangled out the Spir
itualism introduced by Jesus of Naz;r
