It costs nothing to try it : Sold on easy terms. We couldn't do justice to its merits if we attempted a description , and if we could , possibly
would not believe us ; therefore , we say , try it and convince yourselves. It is possessed of special advantages that can be found in no
other machine , and is the lightest running and simplest sewing machine in existence. What do you think of a Union Sewing Machine

It IB the general rule of newspaper
publishers to publibh the copy furnibhcd
by ( ulvcrtibcrs exactly us written. The
proof is compared with it mid in that
way tlio "kick" of the patron , in cabc of a
ridiculqw crror,5s immediately met with
the oviiftneo that the fault lies with
himself. A comma or a bcmicolon , in-
Berted in the wrong place , may change
n death notice bo that it will be cx-
ccbsively funny.
In.unowspaper like the lJEiwherc ono
whole page , at least , is daily filled with
"want , " "for rent , " and other advor-
tinomonts of like nature , it in not
strange that thia should furnihh an ex-
cfillcnt field for the search of novel
errors. During the past month no IcbH
than fifty liuvo been noted by the writer
and below will bo found a few choice
tumplcs.
A few days ago the following ap
peared :
HKNT Thieo nicely furnished looms for
FOIl ; liotud It di-sheil ; also one In-
loom mate ; icferencca lequlred.
Tlio advortiber , evidently a lady ,
for no man could ever have constructed
Btich a wonderful combination , docs not
state many particulars. The render is
obliged to draw upon his imagination
ns to the ago and apperance. of the
"young hiily room mate , " who is to bo
"rented. " Ono valuable trait alone is
mentioned that she is ' 'intelligent. "
This is certainly a most desirable one ,
hut the advcrtibcr should have been
more explicit and told the world some
thing about the color of her hair and
eyes ; whether she wore number nine
Blioes or number twos ; whether she was
good looking or homely , and above all
as to her disposition. It docs not stand
to reason that the "rontco" ' of this "in
telligent young lady" could put up with
mi uncongenial "room mato. " If the
"room mate" in question was a person
who would wear off a person's best neck
tic , or lay hands upon hisla t clean pair
of blockings , or stay out nights and
wake him up by kicking over chairs
ilitriiig the early hours of morning , then
buch a chum would not bo a desirable
one. Then again , the habits of the
porhou would have to bo taken into con
sideration. If the "intelligent room
mate" chows tobacco nnd expectorates
upon the carpotsmoke8 cigarettes , comes
homo loaded with whisky , or pares her
corns with your newly honed razor ,
Ihcso would also bo serious drawbacks.
( n fact something more must bo known
of this unusual object ollcrod by the
"renter. "
Hero is another :
A housekeeper. Must He n Chris
tian , and ulilo to play the plnno.
The advertiser in this case is evi
dently an old bachelor or a widower. At
all events lie is evidently of a religious
turn of mind. Still this may bo a
"blind" on his part to pull the wool over
Iho eyes of the directors of the bank , in
ease no is u cashier , or to give unto his
Bhildron granting ho is a widower nnd
has any proper homo instruction , The
duties of the "Christian housekeeper"
Uro not defined , but it is fair to presume
that she will bo obliged to rise early ;
shop the kindlin gs with a dull axo.build
Iho lire , prepare breakfast , dress the
hildron and pour her master's colToe
Mth humility and Christian fortitude , to
wash the dishes , keep the children from
'ailing ' in the cistern , un&wcr
the door bell , buy the
groceries , frighten away tramps , and
pcdlors , during the day , and "bob up
serenely with a smile of gratitude and
welcome for her employer when ho re
turns to a late and elaborate dinner pre
pared by her. After the dishes are
A ashed , the coal brought tip anil the
table laid for the next morning's repast
Lho"christianhoubckeeper"can roll down

prepare for n pleasant evening in the

rendered by housekeeper.
Altogether the combination desired by
him has many advantages.
One of Wednesday's "adds" in the
BKI : was as follows :
\I7ANTED--Hy a gentleman nnOlfp with ft
TT baby 18 months old. the latter of aery
peaceable disposition , a place to board In a pri-
vuto family.
Hero is the case of a young man who
knows how it is himself , even if ho is
married. It's a hundred to ten that ho
has buffered untold miseries at the
hands of squalling babies before mar
riage , and dooms it but right to inform
his future landlord or lady that his child
IB not like other people's children , who
are of no account anyway , but is the
dearest , sweetest , nnd most peaceable
little darling in the wqrld. Poor papa ,
poor baby , and poor landlady.
Another of Wednesday's :
WANTED 1 young lady room-mute. Hefcr-
tncos required. Inmilto
It will bo noticed that the fair adver
tiser is lamentably ignorant of the
game of poker , and is evidently under
the impression that a pair will beat
three of a kind. Still it may bo that
the apartments she now occupies arc
too limited to accommodate two other
girls.
An unfortunate man's need :
A ONE-AHMED man , and othurwls-e cilppled ,
desires to purchase a full-blooded bull-dot ;
chtai > . Address
If thereis any ono thing , more than
another , under the dome of heaventhat
a one-armed man , ( and otherwise crip
pled ) would naturally yearn for , it is
certainly a bull dog. There is some
thing bo cheerful and homelike in the
countenance of this class of canines , ns
to make a man , bighcd down with the
woo of the advertiser , forget hissorrow.
Then it will bo noticed that , he desires
a full blooded animal. His "objcct in
this is undoubtedly that the blood lost
by him at the time of the amputation ,
will bo represented in the abundance of
the fluid inside the pup's hide. Exactly
why ho mentioned his aflliction in the
advertisement , is explained in the itali
cised word. Any dog mcrcnant who
wouldn't knock oil a few dollars to such
a purchaser , is not worthy to possess
oven a Scotch terrier.
A reward olTered below :
LOST lly hominy und horse radish man , a
Email leather pocket memoianduin book.
Leave at llco olllce and lecclvo reward.
Hero is a now species of the hunwn
race. If the gentleman's solo diet is
hulled corn garnished with the fragrant
horse radish , it's no wonder that hemet
met with the misfortune stated above ,
as his clothes must bo much too largo
for him , and the wind howling through
them could easily carry away his pocket
memorandum book.
A common find :
FOUND A nhyslclnu's grip.
Call at lice olllco.
If the advertiser over picks up any
Masons' or Odd Fellows' grips , ho will
bo rewarded by leaving them at the UIK
olllce.
These are but a few of the comedy
paragraphs of the advertising pages.
Many sad and gloomy histories are also
contained in the harsh brevities of the
"want" columns , but they can have no
place in this article.

gave the "Maid of Dundee , " which
was rendered with exquisite expression. The
piano accompaniment was excellent through

by her exquisite expression and interpreta
tion of the composer's themes. Her artistic
touch and execution challenged the admira
