Ohio University, and in1sz7 he united with
the Methodist Episcopal church. Five years
later he assisted in organizing the Ia LLAMA
Conference, with which. body he was con.

The Latest Invention in Useful


within the last few years there has been
expended q great deal Of Inventive thought
and genius upon what may properly be
classed as household articles, the most noted
results of which are the production Of the
sewing machine, the wringer, the washing
machine, the carpet sweeper, &c, Almost
every week we chronicle the advent Of some
new invention by which the cares and Ia
bors Of housekeeping are lessened, and wo-
mans work made easy.
The newest thing TO challenge our atten-
ton and, gladden. the heart of the housekeep-
or, is, what is called the Novelty Brush hol-
der, Carpet Stretcher and Sweeper, very
simple contrivance designed to firmly hold

one to wash or dust windows, walls or cell

one of its cOnveniences, and il is also one Of
the best carpet sweepers in the market, hold
ing the brush firmly at an angle. It cleans
the carpet thoroughly, raises no dust, and il
does not wear the carpet like the ordinary
broom or brush, and will outwear hall
