ium for brides Messrs. Douglass, White
& Culver appear to have a hard time to
keep their employees; for as soon as they
become proficient in their work, some
man recognizes the superiority Of their
attanments. and wants one of them; and
gets her. The last case occurred on We'd
nesday evening, when Miss Fannie Rust,
of this town, was united in marriage with
Mr.. Elmer Short, of Glendale. The
ceremony was performed at the NJ. l.. !
parsonage in Georgetown, by the Rev. II. !
T. Quigg. and witnessed by few friends
from Milton together with others from
Georgetown. The shirt factory wants op- !
eratives. and those girls who are inclined /
to welded life had better enter, and
while learning to make shirts and draw
ers. enjoy the prospect of becoming the
partner with one of a different gender.
1t must not be supposed that all who
enter the factory will be graduated TO
matrmony; but as in the case OF every
other grade, the best always win. Inc
propretors do not like to lose their em-
ployees. vet for the sake ofgetting more,
they will most likely be prevailed upon
to put up the following sign-board J
Gentlemen who are matrimonially in
clined. will do well to call at the shirt
