Two man a journey had to go (The one was Jim, the other Joe), The distance two score miles and ten, And fifty long miles back again. Away they sped with right good will, Through bush and brake, o'er plain and hill, But very soon the one call'd Joe Declared he could no further go. Jim's hurry would not brook delay, So like a shot he sped away; His journey and his business o'er, He too': tb" '-cad i i- home once more. When halt h_> back he met poor Joe, Walking a10i.,; but very slow, Who when ha saw that it was Jim, With rueful face thus question'd him: " Pray tell me friend how it can be, That yon can walk so light and free, While I, with blisters on each toe, Have flve-and-twenty miles to go ?" Quoth Jim, " The secret you shaU know How I with ease and comfort go, Dame Nature's gifts I don't abuse, And Hemus always makes my shoes. We forget whether Jim wore a pair of our Men's Elastic Sides or Balmoral Boots at 12s 6d, bnt they both go well.

Bliscellaneous. HAYE 'SPECIAL CLAIMS to pub lic attention, as a very superior and valuable assistant in household industry. That this Machine has made thousands of friends who attest its superiority over everything else cannot be doubted ; and it is claimed that it is only necessary to reason upon its peculiarities to enable any person to appre ciate its advantages in the family over every other one in use. What these advantages are claimed to be we propose briefly to ttate, that a comparison m»y be drawn between the Grover and Baker and other Machines— 1. It makes the only team formed by a Sewing Machine in which each stitch is independently lecked, and without dependance upon the ether stitches for strength, and the only seam that will admit of the thread being cut at every fourth stitch without injury to the Bam ir, -, car. It is unnecessary to fasten off the ends of seam?, this being done bj the Machine itself without the use of the hand needlo. 2, The Grover and Baker stitch is the only one formed from two ordinary reels, and without winding from tho reel Into a shuttle f om three to five times for the under thread. A ream thus formed is more elastic than any other made /,;/ a Sewing Machine and is con sequently very valuable in all goods that are to be washed and stretched under the iron, 3. 'J he Machine Is or'apfed to all vaiieticso fabrics, Fewirg each equally well, and require bo tdjusiment for any kind of sowing otlie than the adaption of ntedlts and thread, and by reason of its simplicity of conHruction and easa ot m-iiaiement it Is b«.at adapted 10 all the wants of a family. T__o Lock or Shuttle Stitch Machines manufactured by Grover and Baker, making the seam alike on both sides of the fabric, needs little comment, and parties desiring to invest, are respectfully requested tomalio enquiries of those who have teem in use. as to their superior merits over any other Loci Stitch Machine made. Needles, Parts, Cotton, Silk, etc., .always on hand. The following testimonials are published as samples of the many we are constantly receiving from all parts of the world, and we purpose replacing them fre quently by others, to that the public may form an idea of the Grover and Biker's S.M. Co's Machines, by those who have them in use.
