Ivory Soap, inannfnotnrcdhy Proctor & Gam¬ 
ble, Cincinnati, and for sale hy ncarU’ ovciy 
grocer, has rapidly sooured an cnvinblo reputa¬ 
tion throughout the land. This is not .at aU sm- 
prising, as it is really a complete and perfect soap, 
which cleanses thoroughly without injuring the 
fabrics in the least.

see to it that the heating and ventilating appar¬ 
atus of the greenhouses is put in order. Any one

advantage to send to BiMiings lO Co., 233 Mercer

The New England Conservatory of Mnsic.— 
An institution of which all Americans feel proud, 
and in which so many are directly interested, is 
the New England Conservatory of JIusic, which 
begins its F.ill Term under the most favorable 
auspices. In its New Home, which has ample ac¬ 
commodations for 500 lady students, it has been a 
gratifying success. 1071 students, representing 40 
States. TeiTitories, the British Provinces and For¬ 
eign Countries, have been in attendance during 
the past, with every prospect of an increased 
nmnber for the coming year. 
Fruit.and Wine Presses.— The maniifaetiire 
of Fruit Wines, Butters, Jellies, Marmalades, etc., 
for family use, has increased very greatly during 
the past five or six years. The credit for this new 
depai-tnre is largely due to the Combination Fruit 
Press, made by the Enterprise Manufacturing 
Co., Philadelphia. This valuable machine presses 
all kinds of fruits and berries, and with it every 
family can make its own Grape, Currant, Black- 
beny and other Wines and Cordials, for domestic 
or medicinal purjioses, as well as Fruit Butters, 
Jellies, yiarmalades, etc,, of all kinds, and be 
assured of their purity and excellence. For fur¬ 
ther particulars concerning the Press, we refer 
our readers to the. advertisement in this issue.
