Dear SU-We have used the Gold Medal Sew
ing Machine until we can confidently recon-
mend it as an excellent machine for ordinary
family use. II would be too much to say that it
is perfect, for nothing III this age is beyond i'm
provement, nor would we say that it excels every
other machine But we know Of nothing better.
In general appearance and mechanism it is a first
class machine, and we are pleased with its mod
ell, its style Of finish, the simplicity of its move
mcnt, and il case of operation. To most fami
lies the price will be an especial commentator,
being lower than that of many well known ma
chimes, while its workmanship and qualities are
rot inferior
