Several months ago an Indictment
was found against j. j. Watson of
Chicago, for unlawfully selling rail
road tickets. Judges McAllister aud
Moore held that the law under which
he was indicted is good, and that the
State can protect the people against
spectators in railroad tickets. The
decision complies with the decision
rendered by Judge Farwell some time
ago, and the various railroad compan-
les have directed Mr.. Trude, who pro-
secuted the cases, to "pull" all the
scalpers' offices, and arrest the Offend
ing parties just the same as gambling
houses are pulled by the police. The
complaints against these offices by
travellers come i'm without number, and
persistent warefare is now to be
waged until the proprietors have been
compelled to abandon their business.

EMPLOYMENT FOR LADIES AND GEN.
TLEMEN AT HOME.

Our attention was recently attracted by
an advertisement in another paper to the
American Housekeepers' Scale and the
extremely low price induced us to send for
one to use in our kitchen.
We find the scale the most convenient and
valuable household article we have! 1t is
worth five times its cost, in testing grocers'
packages, putting up preserves, making
cake etc. W. II. Thompson & Co., No.
235 Washington street, Boston, Mass, are
the manufacturers, and they have the most
complimentary Testimonials of the Scale
possible to be written. They have as yet
no General Agent for this County and as
the Scales are sold exclusively by canvass
ers to families. we cheerfully recommend
the article for the benefit of our numerous
lady readers, and parties wanting honor
able employment.
We would say that the Church Journal" /"
N. Y, " Christian Union," N. Y, "Frenk
Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper" New York,
Church Union" N. Y. Boston "Traveler''
g Herald" and POST" and hundreds Of
other papers, all speak in the highest praise
of the Scale, its low price, and convenience
to housekeepers.
Weighs up to "a pounds, and costs 81 so

other Platform Scale in the United States.
