A REAL NECESSITY.

We presume there is hardly a lady
to be found in our broad land who,
if she does not already possess 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 construc ted
that the most inexperienced can sue
cessfully operate it. The other
points mainly to be considered, and
which are the most desirable, are
durability, rapidity, capacity for
work, ease of operation, regularity of
motion, uniformity of tension, and
silence while in operation.
The Light Running New Home"
fills the above requirements, and is
said to combine the good points of
al sewing machines, with The addition
of many new improvements and
labor saving devices,
The price is no higher than that Of
other machines, and every ladv who
is the happy possessor of enc may
rest assured she has indeed a treasure.

Marx Twain Loses an Honor.


Mark Twain will never be hanged for
nodestv and yet he owes it TO a retiring
disposition that he is not real knight az
this blessed minute. 1t is generally
known that the humorist is mighty
shrewd businessman, and thst, by being
his own publisher he has made dollars
out of bis works while other writers OF
equal merit have made cents. But he
chooses to keep his name out Of the
commercial end Of his enterprises,
saving it for the authorship apex
OF them. Thus in the firm OF
Charles L. Webster < Co. he is
tine unmentioned partner, although
the principal one. Well, from tie
issuance Of Iwsin's books the concern
went into Grants autobiography, clear
ing nigh $3.50, 600 from 1t; and thsir
latest venture WIS q volume about the
Pope ut Rome. Twain went himself to
italy 10 arrange the matter, and while
there had audiences with the POntitf
but he figured there only as Charles
l.. Webster & Co., because he was atthe
time engaged in business rather than
literature. So it happened that the
Pope regarded him as Webster. Now
comes big parchment from Rome
setting forth that Charles L. Webster
has been created q knight OF the
Order of Plus, because cit is the custom
and practice of toe Roman Pontifs to
bcstow titles Of high honor on those gen,
tlemen whose eminent gifts Of mind and
whose excellent qualities seem TO us
worflvof being crowned with rewards.
With this document of ennoblement Is
decoration of blue silk, ornsmented with
two stripes Of red at the edges, and the
directions are that it be worn on the lett
breast, according TO knightly custom.
But il cannot properly adorn the front
of Mark Twain, although really meant
for him, and bis lesser partner thus
scoops the glory which belongs to the
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1888-01-15
