fed the defendant as the person who sold

fed to that effect. Verdict, guilty. Fined

woman as she opened the mousetrap
and let two or three OF its occupants out
into the jaws of number of hungry kit
tens. II wonder who started it any
way? OF course there are women who
are afraid Of mice, no doubt, but never
saw a woman make herself more ridicu-
lous over mouse than a certain man
did when one OF these harmless little
creatures scooted up the leg of his trou-
sers.

especially comfortable with any such
foreign element meandering around ones
preserves; but why women and mice

mice, and, as far as can see, they seem
to survive-at all events, never heard
of anybody dying from fear of them.

Nothing Succeeds Like Success.

\
And so true is this old saying in cen.
nection with the well-known Davis sew
ing machines, that IL is a pleasure to pre-
sent to our readers a few pungent facts in
relation thereto: This machine is the only
one that uses the vertical feed, an inn
pIovement that stands pre-eminent among
modern inventions, and the right of which
Ia possessed by the Davis Sewing Machine
Company alone. Through this method oil
feeding, every description OF sewing is
executed in the most perfect manner,
avoiding any "fulling" Either above or
below, and the necessity of Blasting. A
feature not possessed by any other ma
chine, Is that the Davis carries both upper
and under plies OF goods together, as the
vertical feed works equally well on both
sides. This cannot be said OF any other
machine. Seams prove no obstruction to
this new feed, as il steps evenly over
them. No home can be complete without
one OF these new model machines.
