Dear wife, I am weary of seeing You toil every day for your bread, While lama poor helpless being ; 'Tis often I wish I weie dead. Ton ne'er weio accustomed to toiling, Your hands were once white like the snow ; While I watch you work night and morning Your movements seem wearied and slow The Wira, Dear husband, give over your worry, My work se ms J i«_e labor, I ween, Bat I am never compelled, dear, to hurry Now I use Ferriman's Washing Machine. I It lightens by two -thirds my laborß, I And makes all my garments so clean, I That our clothes are tho envy of neighbors Who adore Ferriman's Washing Ma hine TO TBE WIVES AND MOTHERS OF ASHBURTON AND THE GENERAL. PUj-UG.OF NEW ZEALAND. In presenting to the public of Ashbutton the marvellous STE xM WABHER, I believe I am confer ing a boon of m alculable worth on every wife and mother m thu. beautifu land, an whom that most important function of every h uaehold devolve*, known (and hitherto dreaded) as washing clothes of every description. By the use of this Machine, this distasteful and slavish work i. euttrely relieved of iB drudgery, and made a source of pleasnrable _xp.rc.ai_. The unequalle 1 qu llities whlca it. possesses of thoroughly bV-^j'iatt the clothes, giving them an unparalleled whiteneßa, and its armle-.s action upon delicate and colored fabric., render it peculiarly useful and popular. •he saving qualities of the Machine aro quite m keeping with its other m nto ione features- Any p-rson who will give it a practical test will be unquestionably convince! that from an EC.ONO_IIt.AI_ st ndpoiu. it is unsurpassed and unequalled The consumption of fuel Ib materially reduced. The caving effected m this ito". alone will m one year equal the price of the Macniue. As it only entaile <be consumption of two-thirds the amount of soap u>ed m the ordinary wav of washing, this item of co nomy is s.lf-evidem to every person, The greatest sjving, however, is effected m the wear and tear of tbe clothes. Every intelligent individual know--that ihi use of the washboard wears th various fabrics more than anything else, and ts tho marvellous Pte_m Wat her render* it« use absolutely unnecessary, and thereby obviates almost c tirel> tbe nec.snty for " clothe* mending?' its saving qualities m tin particular will be at once apparent and appreciated. But all it", savin- qualities of a financial character are eclipsed, and dwindle into insicrni finance, when we take into consideration the frail, delicate, and weakly condition of thoueands of wives and mothers who are forced to tax their energies and waste, thoir lim<ted strength m J<he old w*y of washing ; but who may, by the use of its magical properties, do the work without any fatigue to their feeble bodies, and with infinite satisfaction and pleasure to their mirids. This, more than any desire or expectation on the part of the inventor to maku money out of the article, was the prime obj .ct he had m view. From the marvellous results obtained from its use, h. wever, and th. unboun ed and en'h'isiastic commendations from everyone having ÜBed it since it. introduction to tEe public, as tbe annexed lis. of names of persons wh > have pn.cha.ed the machine and aro willing to testify to its meiitß, will fully attest, the advertiser h.s deemed it wise, m ordsr to place this incomparable article of household use more prominently before the intelligent people of the district, to pive the postal address of a few of the buyers, m order that an';unpr.judiced and entirely impartial opinion of its intrinsic value, may be readily obtained by anyone desirous of getting anch information from actual users and pnrchwerß, who will undoubtedly be best calculated to give a just estimate of its value.

When the water is boiling violently, which will at once b < evident by heavy and foaming suds rising to the top of the m icbine, take out the clothes and put them at once into clean water (as the dirt is liable to set, and difficult to remove if this is neglected). After this, rineeand put them m blue water. Prints and Ginghamß, soap same as white clothes Put thorn all mot once ; when wat. r is boiling turn for five minutes. If water is not boiling, but very hot, turn eight minutes. Lace Curtains, wet and soap them , put them m a pillow slip ; tie them up. Turn for ten or fifteen minutes. Cold water will do for wettfng all the above. Woollen Blankets. Wet m warm water Soap and put thwn m loosa When the water boils turn ten minutes. Hinse ia warm water. Red Flann Is. Wet them m warm water. When water is just ready to boil, turn for one minute. Rinse m wa»m water, for white flannels tarn for five minute.. Hose.
