HOW APUZZLE WAS SOLVED,

| When yOu want a certain article, you want
| the best make of that article, don't you?
But how to determine which make is best
| ls what puzzles you, isn't it?
And when the puzzle is solved for You,
by authority which cannot be questioned,
you are pleased, aren't you?
And you would like to hear Of one puz
zle that has been solved for the people Of
the whole world. wouldn't you?
Well, we will tell you about that very
puzzle, and its solution.
At the Universal Exposition of 1889 at
Paris, France, the best sewing machines of
the world. including those of America. were
in competition. They were pa sed upon by a
jury composed of the best foreign mechan-
zeal experts. two OF whom were the leading
sewing machine manufacturers of France
This jury, after exhaustive examination
and tests. adjudged that the Wheeler &
Wilson machines were the best of ali. and
awarded that company the highest prize Of
fercd. the GRAND PRIZE, giving other
companies only gold, silver and bronze
medals.
The French Government, as a further
recognition OF superiority, decorated Mr..
Nathaniel Wheeler, president of the COM
pany, with the Cross of the Legion of
Honor. the most priced honor of France.
That is how the puzzle of the best sewing
machine in the world was fully solved by the
most competent authority in the world in
favor Of the No. . and No. 10 Wheeler 4
Wilson machines.
The No. 0, for family use, and the No. 10,
for manufacturing uses are the best in the
world to-day.
And now. when you want sewing ma
chine, 1t you do not get the best, il will be
your own fault.
Ask your sewing machine dealer for the
No. Wheeler & Wilson machine, and if he
does not keep them, write to us for descrip-
tive catalogue, prices and terms.
Agents wanted in all unoccupied territory.

The County Post Offces.

Agreeably to the request of the postmaster
general. Postmaster Batchelder has made
tour OF inspection among the county post
masters. and bis conclusions were forwarded
TO Washington Yesterday. Mr.. Batchelder
has Travelled with his own team about 400
miles. and has visited Sc offices, only one of
which IL of the second class. one of third.
and the balance. 30, including the Newfane
office, are of the fourth class.
He found - offices occupying separate
rooms. Seventeen are In private bouses,
three In railroad stations and "a in country
stores. Eleven offices are within 50 rods of
the railroad stations, which makes 1t incum.
bent upon the roads to deliver the mails
But the average distance of the several
offices from railroads Is about six miles, the
greatest distance being. In the case of the
Stratton Office. about II miles.
There are 43 male and IA female postmas-
ters. The offices, Mr.. Batcbeder SAYS. are
neat and well kept. and we'll located. The
poslmasters themselves are obliging. often to
the extent of pecuniary loss, Intelligent and
appreclative.
The only particular criticism he would
make, would be as to the manner of keeping
the records, some delaying their posting for
week and even for month when the rules
require daily posting.
The postmasters In some of the back towns
find 1t somewhat EXPENSIVE on the items of
fuel and lights. to be obliged to keep the
office open late at night for the ''last mafr'
and as partial remedv for this Mr.. Batch
elder recommends that they be allowed for
fuel and lights as we'll as box rent.
He says that so far as he can determine
the postmasters are trying to serve the pub
lie faithfully AMI well, though with the fall
ing off In population In the hill towns he does
not apprehend any great demand for Inn
proved service.
He classes three post Offices In the list as
perfect, 10 a. excellent, 25 good, while only
nine are marked fair. There ts at least, one
Office in the county At whicn the receipts
sre hardly more than $50 per annum.

PRESIDENT HARRISON "a well as Attorney
General Miller, takes issue with Judge
Wheeler on the question of where the China.
men are to be returned who come across the
line from Canada In violation of the exclu-
sion act-whether the "country whence they
came" in the words Of the law, means China
or Canada. Judge Wheeler, 1t will be re-
membered, held in the case be heard here a
few weeks ago that they could only be re-
turned to Canada. The constitution does not
permit the Punishment of resident of
Canada to China, as penalty for being I'm.
lawfully found In this country. and 1t must be
proved that this Chinaman has not acquired
a domicile In Canada, or he will be sent
thitber. 1t this case, after waiting reason.
able time, to give the government an oppor-
to appeal from his decision. Judge Wheeler
directed the marshal to take the Cinnamon to
Canada, and they were accordingly taken
thither. The attorney general had before
taken just the opposite ground, and insisted
that the burden of proof lay on
the Chinaman to show that they had
a residence In the Dominion Of Canada. And
now President Harrison, In case where Sir
Julian Paunceforte, the British minister, has
interested himself, denies the application to
have the return made to Canada simply, and
says:
"You will please say to Sir Julian that II
this were single case 1t would give this gov
ernment great pleasure to show Its consider.
alton by complying with bis request; but
there 10 involved In this case, In my opinion,
the whole question of the success and en-.
forcement OF our exclusion acts. If China. |
men can land IN Canada and suffer no other |
penalty for crossing one line than that of be.
Ing reterned to Canada. whence they may |
again repeat their attempt to enter our terri. |
cory, our law becomes practically dead let
Ter. have, therefore, directed the secretary
of the treasury to send this man back to |
China. 1t IL probable that the question of |
" Shether 1t Is right under our law can be de.
,ldsd by an application for writ of habeas
corpus In behalf of the men,"
