Our attention has been called to a new article for the nse of Udies, th Invention of which has conferred an erejlasting bless, ing upon every lady. We refer to the Queen City skirt suspenders for supporting ladies' skirts, the most desirable snd bene ficial article ever invented for the relief of women, many of whom have suffered years of miserable health caused solely by carry, ing the weight of a number of skirts, com pletely dragging them down. Something to support ladies' clothing is absolutely necessary. These suspenders are recom mended by our leading physicisns to a'l la dies and yonng girls. Every lady shonld have them. They are sold only through la dy agen. A pleuHd opportunity is offer ed to some reliable lady canvasser of this eonnty to secure the agency for a pleaaant and profitable business.

"There son have it, air, as fine an article of batter as ever wa prodaoed," exclaimed a manipu'.ator of weights and measures in one of the well-known grooery store of 'his city, aa he placed his left hand on bis hip and with the right hand thru', a batter ladle under the nose of the reporter ; "there too have it, air, look at it, smell it, taste it, and then tell me what jou think of it." .. It looks beautiful, smells sweet, Ustos delicious, and I think it's a very 6ae quality of butter," replied the critic, obeying the salesman's instruc tions, "but I wanted to iuspeet some of your oleomargarine." 'Exaotly so," replied the clerk, -aod yon have already done so and pronounced it to be just what it is a 6ne quality of butter." "What Dil 1 put that frightful stuff in my mouth ? I only wanted to look at it, not eat if," and with deoid. ed synit'touis of oaueea the teporter made track for the street gutter. Without succeeding in eccomplishing anything more than eliciting the sym pathy of the passers-by, who exclaimed "Poor fellow, he's drunk," the reporter relumed to the dispenser of oleomar garine to settle with biui for being im posed upon. ' "Well, you .eeni to have survived the shock," said the clerk, with a smile. "Now I tion't mean any offence, but you will permit ine to say that nioety nine people out of one hundred are just as great foois on this subject of eleo marjariue as you have been. Do you know what o!aoinirgarine is composed of!" ''Tallow, soap, grease and filth in general, aud I tLisk it's mighty unkind in jnu to " 'Slop ! Btop !" exclaimed the clerk, interrupting the ex-'ited reporter. "Nothing of the kind ; it's rowposed of the very same c Estuuttt parts as those ,f cow butter " "So jnu sav," suggested the skepti cal scribe. "Aud so ai Professor Chaudler, I'rcsiJeut of the New York Board of Health, aod Professor Wayue, a lead, ing chemi-t of the West, who have made a careful analysis of the oleomar garine and pronounced the produat aa pure aud wholesome a the butter made from eow's miik," explained tbe clerk. Now tell me, if yon please, what the stuff is made of, will 30a !" "Certainly, sir ; but will you first tell mo what cow butter is made from?'' askej tbe clerk. 'From milk," replied tli6 reporter, locking profoundly wise. "True," returned the clerk, "but i from what is the milk deiived ?" "From er the cow," answered tbe puzzled reporter, not b. ing much of a tuuent in anotouiy. "Yes, frotu the fat of the cow,'? gra. ciously Interposed the ehampion of ooncenlrated cow grease, "and oleoaiar gaiine is made from the caul fat of cat tle. A French chemist named Meige, who was desirous of furnishing an arti cle of butter fr the soldiers of tbe Freneh army at a less price than it could be purchased for in tbe markets, discovered this process of manufactur ing the article, lie first selected a cow aod a steer of the saojs age and put them both on tbe same quantity of feed, snd by this experiment be discov ered tbe fact that, while the steer was constantly gaining iu flejb, the eow, which was milked diily, grew thinner in flesh, and front this be argued that the only element of tbe cuw's milk was neither more nor les than the fat of Ihe aoiuial. Then, by a process iu which science imitates nature, tbe j French chemist devised a plan for ex tracting the oleine from the fat and converting it into a substance so close ly resembling butter that even connois seurs are often unable to delect it from the genuine material." "You bae witnessed tbe process of manufacturing it !" inquired the re porter. "Oh, yes : there i an extensive es tablishment at Thirtieth and Caliowhill streets, where over 25,000 pounds are made and shipped weekly to England. Go out there aud see it for yourself." Accepting the suggestion, tbe news, paper man found a neat-looking estab lisbment, tbe floors and all the appoint ments in a scrupuously clean condition, and everything indicating the utmost care to avoid the possibility of any for eign substances coming in contact with the substance in process of manufac ture. "First we select ouly the canl fat of the steer," explained Mr. Martin ; "then this is put into these large tanks and thoroughly washed. Then it is re moved to other tanks, washed again, acd all the tallowy substance is oare fully cat off, aod after this operation is completed it receives ita third and last purification by water." "The next process is that of render ing the fal, which ia done in immense cauldrons at low temperature, not to exceed 125 degrees, but generally at 100, about the temperature of animal heat" "It is in this process that tbe patent of the French chemist consists," ex. plained Mr. Fuller. "After passing through the sieve and being cooled, the substance known at this stage ot the manufacture as stearine is placed in cloths and arranged in layers in hy draulio press, which separates tbe oleine from tbe stearine. Then the former is mixed with certain parts of milk and churned so as to break the globules of oil, and after being suddenly chilled by means of ice Iba tabitaoo is spread oat on large tables. Remaining there a necessary length of lime, it is again ehoroed, salted and made ready for tbe table. "I consider that the greatest inven tion of tbe axe," said Mr. Martin, "for it affords luxury to tbe poor which, at the present prices for butter, is de nied them, as this can be bad for eigh teen cents per pound." "Llow many manufactories of thia artiste are there in the United States ?" asked the scribe. "1 know of but three one in New ! York, one iu Cluoago and our own,' answered Mr. Joseph J. Martin, one of tbe owners. "Do you ship all your productions to ' foreign markets !" J 'Yes, in the main ; we do not rater 1 for heme trade, because we have all we ! can do to supply onr foreign demand : ' but, I thiiik." said be, "the time is not far distant when it will find as great demand in this market as it now finds ibroad."
