The Latest Iuyeation tn Useful House

Within the last few wears there has
been expended great deal of inventive
| thought and genius upon what may
properly be classed as household articles,
the most noted results of which are the
production of the sewing machine, the

We chronicle the advent of some new
inventions by which the cares and la
bor of housekeeping are lessened, and
