iect to present having u high intrinsic value
think the less of present from her husband for its
having cost from forty to two hundred dollars. Not
a bit of it. Now, we have in our minds eye, just
such present as true wife would like to receive
from her worser half. Such of our own readers as
would see it in its substantial form, may dc so, by
stepping into the salesroom Of MessrS. Grover u Ba
ker. In one of their sewing wachines perfect in
their construction, and SO easily adapted to every
kind Of work, we think that genuine husband, who
loves his wife and would therefore tighten her heart
by Tightening her household cares, will find just such
present as he ought feel bound to giveher at this
season of festiyity and gratefulncss The prices
the machines which marvelously simple, and re-
quire mechanical skill to manage, are rom fifty
family buy one, and in six months it will save its
cost in 'wearness and vexation of spirit" alone.
