also can add our testimony to its efficiency
and worth-haying seen it in use for sew
erai months-and being satisfied that the
claims made for it are we'll founded. In a
few words, it is simple in construction.
easily managed. light to handle. occupies
but little room, manufactured of the best
material and furnished at such low 1ig-

and will be pleased to exhibit its work
ings on application. 1t can also be seen
at the hardware store of S. X. Stage.
