Many sufferers will be glad 10 learn
that what is well known among the poor
as q sewing machine case" has been
decided against the company selling the

previous payment by defendant oil nearly

the court.

Of the court is as follows:

by inslsllments, but the machine is only
"leased" to the purchaser, the payments
are designated rent, and when default
is made, if even on the very last Install
ment, the agent steps in, reelsims the
machine and retains all the money thai
has been paid upon it. This one sided
bargain is a cheat on its face. aad be-
sides, a large addition is generally made
to the honest price of the machine when
thus sold on time. In the Brooklyn case
the purchaser had paid eighty dollars,
when, falling in meeting an installment,
the machine was seized and carried of
