Hereé's How it Happened.
I We made a blundér in the last
Wweek's issue of The News that
‘we regretted very much, We
had asconple of seving machines
for sale; and somchow the local
calling attemtion to -these ma
chines got mixed up with the
Grand fnry . Presentments, and
appeared in the paper as a part
of the présentments. - :
| Now,'twe want to state to the
-public, that the Grand Jury did
not recommend these machines.
Yet, we are confident that ‘they
-would ‘have done so' had ' they
known the many good qualities in
these machines that’are net tobe
found in any other makes:. :
. Well, 'the very tiext day' after
the paper cdme out we sold one,
which only leaves; one on the
market, so if its the bargain of
i:nr life you aré' loeking for,
sh in and see the editor of The
News, for advertising surely
