1t will always be source of regret to
the average woman that she has TO let a
man invent thing, for her. The story of
the invention of the sewing machine
reads like fiction. and it is interesting to
know that wherever the Bible goes next
comes the sewing machine. The familiar
American sewing machine is found in
every part of the world.
