Sewinq Machines

There is a new era in the
Sewing Machine business. 1t
used to be that you paid three
times as much for a Sewing
Machine as it was worth. One
third went for the Machine
and two thirds to support an
agency system from which the
customer did not derive a frac-
ton OF a cent OF benefit. And
you are still told that you
ought to tax yourself SIXTY
Seven FER cent to continue that
sham.
It is similar to the long dis
cussion as to whether books
should be sold as merchandise
or by a false system that i'm
posed fictitious values upon re-
tail buyers. That battle was
completely won for the public
as this will be.
The Quaker City Sewing
Machines sold by us are peers
of the best. We quote prices
from a similar make and those
Of the Quaker City together.
The comparison is fair the
Machines similar, the finish
fully equal.

JURY DRANK TOO MUCH.
Then Gave Ngiss Kanrahan $4,000
Damages Against a Pension
Examiner.

BUFFALO, NY, Oct. "a, 1S94.-The jury
in the case of Miss Mary Hanrahan
against Special Pension Examiner Ayres
brought in a verdict this morning of
81, 0o0 for the plaintiff. Martin Carey,
counsel for the defence, at once ap-
piled for stay of ninety days in which
to move for a new trial on the ground
that the verdict was contrary to law
and was excessive, and also on the
ground of the general misconduct of the
jury when they were .deliberating on
their verdict. MIR Carey then proceeded
to charge that eight of the jury were
taken out to a saloon frequently during
last evening, and supplied with drinks,
and that, while drinkink, there was pres
ent and in conversation a representative
Of counsel for the plaintiff.
A great sensation followed, and Judge
Titus was visibly angry. He called for
the officers who had the jury in charge,
Policemen O'Donnel and Curtis, and or
dered them to show cause next Tuesday
why they should not be punished for
contempt of court in violating their oath
til they agreed upon 4 verdict. The ap-
plication of the defence for a stay will
also be argued on Tuesday.
The suit was brought by Miss Hanra-
han against Examiner Ayres to recover
