at Home.

Our attention has been called to some
new and labor-saving cooking utensils-re
Gently invented. One of which, the Uni
versal Weight and Measuring Uten sill, for
weighing flour, sugar, butter, and measur-
ing molasses, milk and all kinds of liquids
used in cooking, entirely superseding ex-
pensive scales. The Patent Centennial
Cake Pan, .the best and most covenient
Cake Pan, ever made, and which every
housekeeper will have when they see its
advantages over all others. Also, the
KitchenGem, a plated wire boiler to hang
inside of an ordinary'pot, for boiling al /
kinds of vegetables, eggs, ETC., which,
when done, can be removed at once perfec-
tly dry without lifting the heavy sooty
pot off of the stove. These goods are sold
exclusively through agents to families, and
offer splendid opportunity to some re.
liable lady or gentleman canvasser of this
county to secure the agency for very
profitable business. For terms, territory
