The American Washer Saves Money,
Time and Drudgery.
The Fatigue of Washing Day no longer dread
ed, but Economy, Efficiency, and Clean
Clothing, Sure.
In calling publio attention to this little
machine, a few of the invaluable qualities,
(not possessed by any other washing machine
yet invented,) are here enumerated :
It is the smallest, most compact, most port
able, most simple in construction, most easily
operated. A child, ten years old, with a few
hours' practice, can thoroughly comprehend
and effectually use it. There is no adjust
ing, no screws to annow, no delay in adapt
ing ! It is always ready for use ! It is a
perfect little wonder ! It is a miniature
giant, doing more work and of a better qual
ity, than the most elaborate and costly. One
half of the labor is fully saved by its use,
and the clo'hes will last one-half longer than
by the old plan of the rub board. It will
wash the largest blanket. Three shirts at a
time, washed thoroughly ! In a word, the
ablution of any fabric, from a Quill to a
Lace Curtain or Cambric Handkerchief, are
equally within the capacity of this LITTLE
GEM! It can be fastened to any tub and
taken off at will.
No matter how deep rooted a prejudice may
exist against Washing Machines, the moment
Ibis little machine is seen to perform its won
eers, all doubts of its cleansing efficacy and
utility are banished, and the doubter and
detractor at once become the fast friends of
the machine.
We have testimonials without end, setting
forth its numerous advantages overall others,
and from hundreds who have thrown aside
the unwieldy, useless machines, which have
signally failed to accomplish the object prom
ised in prominent and loud sounding adver
tibements. It is as perfect for washing as a wringer is
for wringing.
The price, another paramount inducement
to purchasers, has been placed so low, that it
is within the reach of every housekeeper,
and there is no article of domestic economy
that will repay the small investment bo soon.
$5,5
All that is asked for this GREAT LABOR
SAVER, is a fair trial. We guarantee each
machine to do its work perfectly.

THE BLESSI5GS OF TO-DAT.
Strange, we never prize the music
Till the sweet voiced bird had flown ;
Strange, that we should (light the violets
Till the lovely flowers are gone ;
Strange, that summer skies and sunshine
Never seem one-half so fair
As when Winter's snowy pinions
Shake the white down in the air.
Lips from which the seal of silence
None but God can roll away,
Never blossomed of such beauty
As adorns the month to-day ;
And sweet words that freight our memory
With their beautiful perfume,
Come to us in sweeter accents
Through the portals of the tomb.
Let as gather up the sunbeams
Lying all around our path ;
Let us keep the wheat and roses.
Casting out the thorns and chaff ;
Let ns find our sweetest comfort
In the blessings of to-day,
With a patient hand removing
All the briars from our way.

OUT OF WORK.
Or, Two Ways or Bearing Trouble.
It was a cold, dismal evening in Nov.,
that two laborers might have been seen
wending their way along the streets of a
large manufacturing town.
Slowly they proceeded, with dijected
countenance, not exchanging a word un
til the one, whom we shall call SmitV
halted before a neat little bouse and un
latched the gate. Then there was such
a look of utter misery and despair gleam
ing from his eyes, that his companion
murmured, "We must trust in God,
Smith."
"Yes," he articulated gloomily, and
going to the cradle he took up the six
weeks old baby, and sorrowfully pressed
it to his heart.
"I do wish yon would put that child
down and get ready for supper," ex -
claimed his wife, after enduring his gloom
iness for some time.
He slowly obeyed and then seated
himself at the table, with a deep sigh
"What in the world is the matter with
you to-night?" she asked as she sat
down opposite him.
His voice trembled as he replied, "I
suppose you might as well know. first as
last, I have been discharged."
"There exclaimed his wife, quicklyi
pushing back her chair. "Just what I
might have expected ! I'd like to know
what we are going to do now. "Winter
coming on and all I declare. Smith you
will torture me to death !"
"I am very sorroy, Lydia, but I can
not help it."
"Sorry ! No you are never sorry at all.
You would just as leave) sec your wife
and children starve as not. . It's nothing
in the world but yonr poor managing."
"Lydia you are cruel. Instead of
helping me to endure my great trouble,
which is bearing me down to the very
earth, you make it ten times harder for
me to bear. I was not the only one dis
charged, There was Jim Hawley, and
ever so many others. Business is dull !"
She mimiced after him. "Always an ex
cuse for a worthless man. To think that
you should be discharged now, just as
the rent is due ; and then we are out of
wood ; and look at my shoes won' t yon ? my
feet almost on the ground- I wish I had
never married yon, ,.and a dark look ac
companied the last words. The poor hus
band now covered his face with his hands
and groaned aloud. This seemed to en.
courage his wife to go on, for she nttered
words more and more bitter until at last
driven almost to a state of frenzy, the
wretched man rushed from the house to
the tavern, and there sought to bury his
thoughts of the past and future in the
rum cup.
In the meantime, James Hawley, his
companion in labor, entered his home
with a very sad countenance. But be
fore he had stepped over the threshold, a
loving pair of arras were thrown around
his neck, and a pair of sweet lips were
pressed to his. lie returned the saluta
tion sadly and then inqnried for the
baby.
"She is sleeping sweetly in her cradle.
She has been a perfect little darling all
day. Supper is waiting ; so make haste,
here is warm water and towl. Are you
not later than nsual to-night ?"'
"Yes, Mary, I bring bad news to you."
"Bad news !' she exclaimed, turning
pale as, for the first time, she noticed
that something was wrong.
"Yes ; I was discharged to-night, and
I do not know as I can get anything to
do before Spring. Business is so dull."
"Is that all !" asked his wife with a
sigh of relief. "I thought it was some
thing terrible, the way you looked."
"And is it not terrible enough 1 what
will becomes of ns this winter if I am
out of employment?''
"The same God who feeds the spar-
rows and clothes the lillies in the fields,
will not leave us Biffer, dear James."
"God bless you Mary ! There is sweet
comfort in your words."
"And now let us have supper," ex-
claimed Lis wife cheerfully. "See, I
have your favorite dish shortcake and
toast. Do not let yonr troubles impair
your appetite, aud then, after tea, we
will talk it all over. God doetk every
thing for the best. And as' our day bo
shall our strength be."
In the evening it was determined that
the quarter's rent should be paid im
mediately, a new supply of coal obtain
ed, and the remaining portion of the
money placed in the wife's hands to be
dealt out as spairingly as poseible.
Then Mary suggested that all her par
lor furniture should be put away in the
, garret, and the front room let out.
Further than this they could lay no
I plans, and as the husband went out to
j pay the rent, the future looked so dark
to the young wife that she could not al
together restrain her tears; but seeking
Etrength from on high, her face wore the
same cheerful Bmile when her husband
returned
and little did be know that '
during all the long night, while he and
the baby were sleeping, his wife lay
awake, planning out the future. -
Three months have passed, with
scarcely a day's work, in all that time,
and now an other quarter's rent is due.
In vaiu the laborer thrusts his hands in
his empty pockets, and in vain racks :
his brain for some solution of the prob
lem how that rent is to be paid, The
lodger had paid his money monthly ; but
then that was not enough to meet the
sum, if he had it, and of course his wife
had spent that as fat as she received it,
and it was an every day wonder to James
how Mary managed so well.
With feelings of great dispair he en
tered the house. The table was spread
with some favorite dish. There was the
shortcake and toast, flanked with a gold-
cn lump of butter, a plate of honey, and
a deep dish of roasted apples to be
served with sugar and cream, while at
bis wife's plate sat the steaming teapot.
As James took it iu all at a glance, he
creatlr wondered at the frnjral, vet
j comfortable way of living. How
j his wife had been able to make the
small amount of monev laBt so Ions was
a mystery to him, and yet he could not
help wishing inwardly that she had been
more economical ; then, perhaps, the
rent might have been paid, and he felt
that it would be better to have subsisted
on one crust of bread rather than to be
turned out of doors homeless.
He refused to sit at the table, pleading
that he had no appetite. And a great
large tear arose in the strong man's eyes
as he informed his wife that on the mor
row they v.ould be turned from their
home, to go he knew not where, as he
had not a dollar in his pockets to secure
them a room elsewhere.
"Is that it ? ' exclaimed his wife in a
soft tone, and tripped up stairs, and soon
returned, and placed two ten dollar bills
in his hand.
"Where did you get them V he asked
eagerly turning them over iu his hands,
as though to ascertain whether they were
realy genuine or not.
"1 earned them," replied bis wife gaily
I knit afghaus, shawls, children's hoods,
saques aud socks ; at first only for those
whom I providentially heard wished
articles of the kiud ; afterward I was
employed to furnith a trimming
Iisbment with my work."
'And kept it a secret from me 1"
"Yes, because I thought you would be
worried for fear I was doitig too much-
I love to knit dearly, aud consider it
more of a pleasant pastime than labor."
"God be praised for giving me such a
wife !"' exclaimed her husband earnestly,
and pressing his wife aud child closely
to his bosom, ue said, "tier children
shall rise up and call her blessed ; her hus
band also aud he praiseth her ; for many
daughters have done, virtuously but thou
excellest ihetn all."
Twenty years have passed, and James
Hawley is a rich man But Joseph
Smith is a confirmed drunkard, while his
wife has long since passed from earth a
victim of misery and want.
Why will not wives assist their hus
bands to bear their trials, with helping
hands and hearts? If they would but do
this, how many families would be saved
from ruin and how sweet would be their
reward, not only upon earth but in
Heaven.
"Papa" said a little urchin to his father,
the other day, "I saw a printer go down
the etreet just now."
"Did you. sonny? How did you know
the person was a printer ?"
"Because I do, pa."
' But he might have been a carpenter,
black smith, or a shoemaker."
"Oh, no, papa; he was aprinter likely
an editor for he was gnawing a bone,
and had no stockings on. The crown was
out of his hat, and his coat was all torn.
I am certain he was a printer."

A SAD CASE A Hl'SBAXD IX SEARCH
OF A Kl.VUVAY WIFE.
From the Kansas City Times
Yesterday morning an old man from
St. Louis, named Henry Richardson,
came to this city on the Missouri Pacific
railroad. He sought Marshal Spears at
once, and told him his troubles and his
calamities. About six months ago Rich
ardson, then a man of forty-five, married
a young and pretty girl named Emily
Rosser, only sixteen years of age.
At first, as the husband told the mar
shal, everything went on well. II Is wife
was dutiful and kind, and seemed per
fectly happy with her choice. By-atid
by a young fellow named Penderson ap
peared upon the ecenc, who was a cousin
of Richardson, and who bad been made
welcome at his house. In time the re
gard of the young wife ripened into fa
miliarity, and the actions of the two to
ward each other were snch that the
neighbors began to talk about it.
Finally they told the husband, who
resented the information indignantly, and
threatened several who seemed to him
more thau unnecessarily officious. He
had some conversation, however, with his
wife about it, telling her what the neigh
bors said, and how it distressed him.
She in turn denied everything, cried bit
terly, ki?sed her husband over and over
again, and the matter was forgotten. Rut
the young man still came to the house.
To day a week Mr. Richardson had
occasion to go to Springfield, 111. He re
mained there two days, and when he re
turned his wife and Penderson had eloped
together. With a cunning that comes
ouly from a consciousness of guilt, she
had prevailed upou her husband only a
short time before to give her S3.000 in
Lnited states bonus, and a deed to a
! house and lot in St. Louis. These she
sold before she left, at a sacrifice, aud
j with all her clothes and jewelry, aud her
' paramour, the arrived in Kansas City
j last Monday, remaining here but one
I night, regi-tering as man and wife.
When Mr. Richardson returned home
he found that, however, slight his bus-
picions were before, they were now more
j than made sad realities. At first he de-
termined to endure his great wrongs in
silence, and let the erring wife go her
own gait to rniu, but the more he brood
ed over them the more resolved he be- 0y jn a recPnt ove fe;l3t ghe declared
came to pursue the guilty parties. He , tj,at 6j,e ua(j enjoyed religion one hun
traced them to this point, and after find I ,re(j years, and for that same period had
ing out what he could from Marshal j j,een a member of the Methodist Church.
Spears and others he became convinced j jt ;s pr0bable that she is the oldest
that they had gone from here to Fort j cl,urcu member of any denomination iu
Scott, and may be beyond. So to Fort ' tj,e worU.
