THE AMERICAN WASHER!
PRICE, $5.50!
TITE AMERICAN WASUKTl SAVES MONEY,
TIME, AND DKUDGEUV.
Tho Fatigue of Washing Day no Longer Dread
ed, but Economy, lilllciency, and Clean Cloth
ing, Mine.
In calllngpubllc attention to this little machine,
n few of t lie invaluable finalities, (not possessed
by any other washing machine yet invented,) are
here enumerated.
It Is the smallest, most compact, most iwtable,
most simple In construction, most easily ojicrulcd.
A child ten years old, with a few hours' practice,
can thoroughly comprehend anil effectually use It.
There Is no adjusting, no screws to annoy, no de
lay in adapting I It Is always ready for use I It
Is a perfect littlo wonder I It Is a miniature giant,
doing more work and.of better quality, than the
must elaborate and costly. One half of the labor
Is fully saved by its use, and the clothes will last
one-half longer than by the old plan of the rub
board. It will wash tho largest blanket, or three
shirts nt a time, w ashing thoroughly I In a word,
the ablution of any fabric, from a Quilt to a Lace
Curlaln or Cambric Handkerchief, are equally
in the capacity of this LITTLE OEM I It can be
fastened to any tub and taken oil at w ill.
No matter now deep rooted a prejudice may
exist against Washing Machines, the moment this
little machine is seen to perforin Its wonders, all
doubts of Itsclcaniug efllcacy and utility are ban
ished, and the doubter and detractor at once be
come the fast friends of tho machine.
We have testimonials without end, sotting forth
its numerous advantages over all others, and from
hundreds who have throw n aside tho unwieldy,
useless machines, which have signally failed to
accomplish the object promised in prominent and
loud sounding advertisements.
It Is as perfect for washing as a wringer is for
wringing. The price, another paramount Induce
ment to purchasers, has been placed so low that
it Is within the reach of every housekeeiier, anil
there Is no article of domestic economy that will
repay me small investment so soon.
All that Is asked for this OltEAT LABOR
HAVEK, is a fair trial. We guarantee each ma
chine to do its work icrfectly.

The Hen-weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are the
first two wenpons wit Ii whleli tlio citadel of the
nialndy Is assnlled. Two-thlrils of the cases of con
sumption originate In dyspepsia nnd a rtmctkmally

comes the culminating result, and tho Butting lu,
With alt Its distressing symptoms of
(oihi urnoy.
The Mandrake Pills are composed of one of Na
ture's noblest KirtH-tho Podnphlllmn rellatnm.
They possess all the Mood-scnrchlnK, allerntlve
properties of calomel, hut, unlike calomel, they
"i.mvn so SiTiii nicuisiit."
The work of cure Is now hrKinnhiir. The vitiated
and mucous deposits In Die. linwels ami In the ali
mentary canal are ejected. The liver, like a clock,
Is wound up. H arouses Troiii Its torpidity. The
stomach acts respouslvelr, noil the patient begins

Now comas tlio greatest Jllood Vuriller ever yet
given by nn Indulgent father to suirering num.
Hchenck's Pulmonic fclyrup comes In to perform Its
functions and lo huHlen and complete the cure. It
enters At once upon Its work. Mature can not Im
cheated. It collects nnd ripens the Impaired and
diseased perilous of the lungs. In tho form of
gatherings. It prepares them Tor expectoration, and
lo! In a very shorl time the innladv Is vanquished,
the rotten throne that It ex pled Is renovated and
mndn new. nnd Ihs i.iillent. In all the dlgnllv of re

modest words :
" It any years ago I was In the last stnges of eon

physicians Ihoughtthat Iconld not llreftweek; then,
like n drowning man ditching at straws, I heard of
nnd obtained the priparntloiw which I now oiler to
the public, nnd they made a perftsn cure of me. )fc
seemed to me that I could I'ecl them penetrate my
whole system. They soon ripened the matter In my
lungs, nnd I would spit up more than n pint or Oucii
Blye yellow matter every morning for a long time.
'As soon as lhat began to auhslrle, my cough,

" I was weighed shortly nfler my recovery," ndded
the Doctor, " then looking like a mereskelctou ; my
we gnt was only ninety-seven pounds; my present
velglit Is two hundred and twenly-llve CJjii) pounds,

I he directions for utklng the medicines nre adapt-

directions, and kind Nature will do the rest, except,
lug that In some cases the Mandrake Pills are to lie

HUMOROUS.
A Fool of a Dog. (
In Tolodo, Ohio, recently, tho attention
of a lady was attracted to a couple of boys
in tho street, ono of whom, seemingly nil
droBHing the other, was expressing his in
dignation in tho most bitter terms. " You
fool," ho wont on; " you cussod fool ; I'm
ashamed of you. You're tho very dainti
est fool I ever did bco; confound you 1"
Tho lady finally intorposod to suggest tho
unfitness of such language toward his as
sociate, when ho replied, " Why, I wasn't
talking to this boy ; I was talking to this
dog hero. Why, don't you believe, ma'am,
tho blamed fool barked at that stono dog
back there in that door yard. Why, darn
him, I won't bo followed by a dog that
don't know more than that 1" Tlio lady
gave up tho job and retired.
Fooled Him.
Recently, two persons traveling, on tho
road to Gotham in a light wagon, were
smoking cigars, from tlio fire of which
soma straw at tho bottom iguitcd. The
flames soon drovo them from their seats,
and while busy extinguishing tho firo a
countryman who had boon for some time
following them on horseback, alighted to
assist them.
I have been watching tho smoke for
some time," said ho.
" Why, then, did yon not givo us no
tice ?" asked the travelers.
" Well," responded tho rustic, " thcro
aro so many new fangled notions now-a-days,
I thought you wore going by steam."
55" An anicrican would-bo orator en
gaged to speak nt tho opening of a
bridgo in the far West. " My friends,"
he commenced, " thirty years ago tho spot
on which wo now utaud was a waste,
