Dear wife, I am wears- of seeing Tnu t> >il every day for your bread, While I am n poor helpless being ; 'Tis often I wish I were dead. Ton ne'er wero accustomed to tailing, Your hands were once white lvke the snow ; While I watch you work night and morning Yonr movements seem wearied and slow . The Wife, Dear husband, give over your worry, My work so ms Hie labor, I ween, But I am never compelled, dear, to hurry Wow I use Ferriman's Washing Machine. a It lightfns by two-thirds my labors,* And makes all my garments so. clean, T That our clothes are the envy of neighbor * Who adore Ferriman's Washing Ma'hine [, mO TOE WIVES AND MOTHERS OF I X ASHBURTON AND THE GENERAL j PUiiLIO OF NEW ZBAL&.ND. In presenting to the public of Aahbutton *t the marvellous STE hM WASHER, I be'ieve I am confer 'ing a boon of incalculable worth on every wife and mother m this beautifii' land. an whom that most, important function of , every household devolves, known land hitherto dreaded) aB washing clothes of every dett scription. 1, By the me of this Machine, this dintastefal <J and slavish work is entirely relieved of lt« K. drndgery, and made a source of pleasurable exercisu. The unequalled qualities which it ;s possesses of thoroughly b'rnchinct the clothes, d giving them an unparalleled whiteness, and its narmle-s action upon delicate and colored fabrics, render it peculiarly useful and popular. # The saving qualities of the Machine are quite m keeping with its other m»ritoriouß features. Any person who will give it a practical test will be unquestionably convinced that from an E3ONOMI-AL standpoint it is ~ unourpnssrd and unequalled. The consumption of fuel Is materially reduced. The saving effected m this item alone will m onß year 1 equal the price of the Macuine. As it only entails tbe consumption of two-thirds the amount of soap v ed m the ordinary wav of washing, this item of ec nomy is salf-evident to every person. The grea'eßt saving, however, is effected m the wear and tear of the D clothee. Every intelligent individual known >f that th ; ÜBe of the wushbofud wears th? 1 various fabrics more than anything else, and o s th» marvellous Pte*m Washer ran- lew its , uee absolutely unnecessary, and thereby ob- ' viatt'S almost entirety the necessity for '» " clothes mending," its saving qualities m thi< " particular will be at once apparent and approl- ciated. Bnt all its savin" qualities of a financial character are eclipsed and dwindle into insignificance, when we take into consideration tb.3 frail, delicate, and weakly . condition of thoupands of wiveß and mothers who are n forced to tax their energies and waste their limited strength inj<he old way of washing; but who may, by ihe use of its magical pro--0 perties, do the work without any fatipue to their feeble bodiep, and with infinite Batisfac- - tion and pleasure to their minds. This, more than any desire or expectation on. the part of the inventor to mak«) money out of the [. article, was the prime obj-ct he had m visw. From the marvellous results obtained from its use, however, and the unbounced and en'hosU astic commentations from everyone hating used it since its m trod action to the public, as the annexed list of names of persons wh j have pnrchared the machine and are willing to testify to ita meats, will folly attest, the advertiser k»s deemed it wise, m ord-T to place this incomparable article of household use more prominently before the intelligent people of 8 the district, to give the postal address of a few d of the buyers, m order that an 'unprejudiced f and entirely impartial opinion of its intrinsic value, may be readily obtained by anyone desirous of getting puch information from " actual nseiß and purchiserß, who will tm--1 douMedly be best calculated to give a jast 3 estimate of its value.
