SELDOM do we see greater truth more
beautifully expressed than this from the N.
Y. Nation: "Reined homes are the end of
civilization. All the work of the world-the
railroading, navigating, digging, deving,
manufacturing, inventing, teaching, writing,
fighting, are done, first Of all to secure each
family to the quite of its own hearth, and,
secondly, to surround as many as possible
with grace and culture and beauty. The
work Of all nations for five thousand years is
represented in the difference between a wig
wan and lady's parlor."

were arrayed against it, backed by national

These Machines are specially adapted for tho
