GIRLS WANTED.

THE URBANNA MANUFACTURING
COMPANY offers to the young
ladies aud girls of the surrcupd ding
counties the opportunity of securing
pleasant aud profitable positions in
it's Shirt Manufacturing Department,
ard would be pleased TO receive tue
rames of all DESTROYS Of sveilipg
themselves of such opportunity. Full
Information will be cheerfully fur
Dished, and Inquiries will be prompt
ly answered.
Casually we mention a few facts here:
The Company is now having erected,
upon one of the most beautiful sites
along the Rsppshsnuock River, q
handsome two-story brick building,
capable OF accommodating one-hun-
dred-and-fifty machines. These ma
chimes are all operated by motor
power, doing away with all pedal
work Incident 10 family sewing
machine. The machine is started
and stopped by simple touch OF a
lever, aud the operator has no work
to do other than TO guide the mater
ial. Some of the machines are high
speed cues, making AS many as $500
strokes a minute, and sffording an
operator of average nimbleness with
mense number of pieces in a day.
Each operator makes only one GER
tain piece of a garment, aud all work
is paid for according TO the number
of pieces made, affording an active
girl the chance of making larger
salary than would ordinarily be paid
for days WORK. From five to ten
dollars a week should be fair aver
age earning; some will be able to
make even more.
The Company, recognizing the fact that
at first, and until a more perfect ia
miliaIlty with the machines is &C
quired, some girls will be unable 10
learn as rapidly as others, will, for
three months, guarantee that no en-
tire weeks earning shall be less than
two dollars, and In such cases where
it does so happen will pay the oper-
ator that amount.
All modern conveniences will be found
in the building, and nothing will be
left undone that may be conducive
to the health, comfort and pleasure
of every lady employed.
For the convenience OF those boarding
In Urbanna who may desire to return
to their homes to spend their Sum-
days, the factory will close early on
Saturdays and open later than usual
on Mondays. Transportation by
land or water can be readily aud
cheaply obtained.
The business will be under the entire
charge of lady superintendent.
Mrs. Eva IL. Converse, formerly OF
Tappahannock. Va.
Messrs. Benedict Bros, OF Baltimore,
Will send down several of their best
lady operators as instructors, and
those who are so fortunate as to re-
ceive the benefit of several weeks
instruction under these capable and
experienced ladies will be far better
fitted to earn more than those who
come In later. Another urgent
reason for commencing as soon as
the factory begins work, which will
be about November LIST, is the fact
that some of the machines have a
larger earning capacity than others,
and the first to come will get all the
plums-the best machines.
The Company has contracted for the
erection of ten handsome and con-
venient cottages upon its property,
to be rented to the families OF the
operatives. Each cottage will be
expected to furnish not less than
two operatives to the factory, either
from the family of the tenant, or as
boardcis. A congenial party OF four
or five girls could rent cottage to-
gether, and thus render their ex-
pense much less.
Every effort will be made by the manage
ment to secure only girls of the best
character and To maintain the high
est moral standard.
