THE FLIRT. What is a flirt ? How often have we heard the question asked -how seldom answered. All seem, more or less, to in dulge in a little "innocent flirta tion." It is a pleasant pastime, and they enjoy it vastly. Even married people, now-a days, appear to have a consider able relish for a side dish of flirta tion. Now, in good, sober earnest, is dirting an innocent amusement? Sometimes, yes ! oftener, no! Not that we think many of these dear, delightful little crea tures who revel in the name of firt, eare much. They seem to de light in the idea of wounding a poor, susceptible fellow ; and with this,end in view, they use all their charms to the very best advan ow cleverly they find out all his weak points, take his heart by storm, and then, without the sha dow of pity, mercy or remorse, turn round and laugh in the poor, deluded fellow's face. Of course there is a great deal of difference in flirts, also in flirt ing. There, are, for instance, the dear, charming little creatures, who -hang confidentially upon your arm, and look up into your face, who drop their eyes in a pret t half bashful way, and sigh as t ough their poor little hearts were actually breaking for you, and who, all the while, are laughing in their sleeves; for no matter how small or tight they may be, (their sleeves, we mean,) they manage to laugh in them at the expense of the poor, deluded fools, who are conceited enough to believe they have another to add to their list. Then there is a bright, brilliant, dashing flirt, who glories in her "name and occupation;" who boasts openly of all her conquests, and tells you plainly to your face she will carry off your heart in ite of you; and, to tell the truth. a6e rarely fails; for no matter how sharp a look-out you keep, that gay young damsel will manage, somehow or another, to take you unawares. And then bow she enjoys the vietory-how she laughs outright at your woe-begone looks, and comforts you by saying she only did itfor fun, as she "had nothing else to do"-a great comfort to know that your heart has been used as a toy-as a foot-ball, for instance. She will also console you *by sayingyou are not the first and only sighing swain who is pining for her smile; and she hopes you will not be the last-perhaps she has alle audacity to point out her uert~ victim-with an encouraging and cenfidential whisper, to watch the.nextceese on the programme. Strange to say, although the young lady in question has "played with ftre" ever since she was six teen, her heart has passed through the flames untouched. But still, flirts generally get caught1 and are, sooner or later. "paid back in their own coin." [Baltimore Home Journal. CoKmaWRY, September 11, 1869.

They sew with two threads direct from the spoole, and rejire no re-wit ding. 2. They are more easily und-rstood and used, and less liable to derangement than other ma chines 8. They are cspable of executing perfectly. without change of adjustment, a much greater! ariet of work than other maehIaes. 4 Te stitch made by these machines is much more firm. elastic, and durable, especally upon articles which require to be washd and ironed, than any other stitch. 6 This stitch, owing to the manner in which the under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump and beautiful in use, and retains this plumpness and beauty evenu pon articles fre'. quently washed and ironed until they are worn 6. The structure of the seam is such that, though it be cut or broken at intervals ot' only a few stitchs, it will neither open, run nor rael, but remains fidm .ndstenaboth endse of thme seam by their own operati. 8, With these 'machines, while i.ilk is used upon the right or faced side of the .seam, cotton may be used upon the other side without lessen,. ing'the strengthm or durability of thme .seam TIhis can t.e done on nmo other machine, and is a great saving upon all articles stitched or made up with silk 9. These machines. in addition to their supe rior merits as instruments for sewing. by a change of adjustment, easily learned and practised, exe.. cute the most beautiful and permanent em broidery and ornamental work.
