4 REAL NECESSITY.

We presume there is hardly a
lady to be found in our broad land
who, if she does not already pos
sess a sewing machine, expects
some day to become the owner Of
one.
But after the mind has been
fully made up to purchase one Of
these indispensable articles, the
question arises as to what kind
of a machine to buy. .
1t should be so simply con
structed that the most inexper'
fenced can successfully operate it,
The other points mainly to be con
sidered, and which are most de-
|sirable, are durability, rapidity
capacity for work, ease of opera
ton, regularity of motion, uni
formity of tension, and silence
while in operation.
The Light Running New
Home" fills the above require
ments, and is said to combine the
goods points ofall sewing machines
with the addition of many new i'm
provements and labor.saving de-
vices.
The price is no higher than that
of other machines, and every lady
who is the happy possessor of one
may rest assured she has indeed a
treasurer.
All who send for the company's
new illustration catalogue and Ell
close their advertisement (printed
on another page) will receive a
set of fancy advertising novelties.
of value to those collecting cards.

gratifying to the legal profession
who entertained some fears that
the next term Of our District
Court would be without a jury
and to every one else, to see bust
ness dispatched and the docket
swept. Mr.. Kuehling compare
lively a stranger in our midst, has
won the esteem and confidence Of
the whole community as the readi'

responsible should be taught that
where a regular toll bridge is or
right of way is established, such
practice as charging are allowable
and warranted, but where it is a
matter of temporary convenience
to the travelling public we must
say that this charging practice is
somewhat harsh and antediluvian.

Travellers lately have been
most lavish in their praise Of the
condition Of our public roads, and
a little experience on our part on
the way of travelling has satisfied
US, that they were correct that our
public roads are in splendid order,
can hardly be better and we are
satisfied that the Police Jury Of
the Parish have made a judicious
use of the funds appropriated for
that purpose.
