LADIES.—Shcjuian,
of Boston, has intro­
duced a neat little iron framed, Rubber
springed Clothes Wringer that takes the
ribbon wherever it goes. The Rubber
Springs and the manner in "which they arc
confined are bound to make it the most dur
able of any of the various kinds in use
scientific men pronounce the Rubber Springs
of Sherman's Wringer to be
superior to cogg
geering. Wo can say that it is the most
simple, and works much easier than any
we have seen. Mr. K. Jordon is the man
ufacturer's Agent of this city. Mr. Jordon
says they are giving entire satis taction.
They will be for sale at several houses in
this town, and we advise all to examine this
Wringer before buying any other. Mr.

our office for a few days, lie is giving
