GRUIDING THE FACES OF THE POOll.-
That very many persons ate singularly improvi
dent, and in consequence of theirfolly are
obliged to live "from hand to mouth," is un
doubtedly true; but there are thousands of
worthy poor—widows and worse than widows
our land, whose lives are made wretched
and almost intolerable because of unrequited
toil. They work early and late for the merest
pittance, scarcely, keeping soul and body to
gether, while th - C.i . exacting and hard-hearted
employers actually roll in wealth. But pro
longed jabor and poor pay are not the only
evils growing out of their miserable condition.
They must pay a pPernitint for being poor upon
nearly every article they buy.
If they want flour or sugar, or provisions of
any kind, they are required to pay a few cents
extra - a polthd, because, they van ,ptiridiazte but
sparingly of each.
The inexorable law regulating trade is such
that this is regarded as a m isjbrtune,
nu blame attaching anywhere.
- -- Sewing - machine.,, Lot-invented-expressly
to ameliorate their woes,liave certainlyptoved
a great blessing to this „ unfortunate class.
Those of them who have been ape to procure
machines receive, as a rule, fax" better remu
neration for their services than formerly,
while their hours of labor are reduced at least
one halt.
But there are still in every community scores,
and hundreds of women too poor to buy ma-,
chines, and they. art; growing every day -less
and less able to spare front their scanty earn
ings sufficient means to secure to themselyes
treasures so costly. Perhaps, with a viety'dt
aiding these forlorn and destitute creatures—'
perhaps thrOngh the promptings of self-into
reSt merily=the 'representatives of several of
the prominent machines are now vying with
each other in Making ''easy terms" and "in-.

A HANDSOME STORE.—On the `fifth day 'of
June, 1854, Mr. George C. Bower, opened his
drug store at the corner of Sixth and Vine,
and on the fifth day . of . ..Tune, ^lBO9 (Satttrday
next), just fifteen years elapsing, he will open
one of the most complete and handsome stores
in this city. It is located at .No. 406 Chestnut
street, in the building formerly occupied by
the Fame Insurance Company, and is fitted
up in magnificent style. The wood-work is
painted a glossy white, relieved', with walnut
and gold mouldings. The floor is of ash and
- walnut, oiled, and the ceilings and walls are
elaborately papered. At the entrance'stands
an , immense soda-water fountain, the
outside of which is constructed of the
best Italian marble with silver-plated
mountings; inside are the compartments for the
syrups and ice. It is without doubt the hand
somest aft& of the kind in this city. Mr. B.
manufactures the secia water that - will be
drawn from this fountain hiniself, by a new
and improved process, by which it is rendered
entirely free from all acids and other ' deleteri
ous matter. He has also Saratoga and
.other mineral spring waters on draught. Large
and handsome cases adorn one entire aide of
the room, filled with English, French and
American . cosmetics, fancy and useful
articles 'of every • description, that are
used for toilet purposes, etc. Ho will devote
his. entire time and energy to this place of
business, and will keep none other than the
best of drugs and medicinesi'and all Physi cians'
prescriptions will receive his personal super
-vision. The store will certainly be a conveni
ence as well as an adornment to the neighbor
hood, and .we predict for him a successful
Career in his new enterprise. ••
