L. LEPpELMAN, Esq, Fremont, o., Agent
Domestic Sewing Machine.
DEAR SIR: For the past six months have been
wanting a sewing machine, and have examined
and had on trial about six different machines; but
some how they would not suit They could not do
the work that they were recommended to meto do,
to satisfy me- and at last having heard that there
was machine in Fremont, that could do Just what
it was recommended to do, my wife urged me to
get it, and did So And while having it on trial,
there we're two Grover & Bakers machines brought
to my house. and tried to work by the side of you
Domestic, but it was no go. Both ua:hines, in my
estiuatio could not do the variety of work nor
with as much case, neatness and quietness, as the
Domesti' and consequently have concluded to keep
the Domestic machine. I can, with the trial have
had, safely say to the publ; at large, that any
one in want of a first class Se,cia1 machine
will consult their own interests, by calling on you
at once, and getting Domestic rachine, I can re-
ally say is the Eureka in the sewing machine line
I also can inform you that some of my neighbors,
that have called in to see the machine work, say it is
the best and easiest trOrIiEO setciIs0 nlGcIia.e
they ever saw in their lives and if they could sell
thero old one at One-half the price, they would get
a Domestic. Yours truly, sc.
