You Are Invited
TO INSPECT THE GREATEST ME-
Cl1ANlCAL WONDER OF
THE AGE.

The much talked Of Free Sewing
ed the old style Sewing Machine
wherever shOwn--a machine that we
can conscientiously recommend as
being superior to any other machine in
the market, and so simple that a child
can operate it, Tomorrow, March 20,
MI. Thompson, one of the Worlds
Greatest Sewing Machine Experts will
give free demonstration of this VOL
derful machine on the first floor.
Whether you wish to purchase a ma
chine or not you will be interested in
the truly marvellous feats Mr.. Thomp-
son will perform on this, the worlds
greatest sewing machine. Your
name embroidered in shaded silk on
ribbon, or hose darned in two minutes.
We have carried and sold sewing
machines for the past seven years. We
could not but feel interested in the
Free after reading what the scientific
journals said of this great machine, So
we gave it trial-a trial that would
have put any other machine in the
scrap heap. We tried to find it's weak
points. We tried it on the sheerest
nuns veiling-we tried it on leather
we tried it on thirty thicknesses OF
Lonsdale muslin at two hundred
stitches a minute; it never skipped a
stitch. We raced it against the fastest
rotary shuttel machines and beat them
all hollow We tried it on fine work
and did it better and faster. We fail
ed to find a weak point. We found 1t
did not have one-we found all the
good points of all other makes, three
or four exclusively its own.
Eleven points of Superiority this MA
chine has over all others: 1.-The
"Rotoscillo" movement, combines
every advantage of both shuttle and
round bobbin machines; 2-Ball Bear
ings; 3-Beauty; Shuttle Ejector,
throws out the shuttle automatically;
Lock; 6-Rotary Spool
Pin; Automatic Tension Release;
S-Needle can't be put in wrong; 8
Improved Head Latch; 10-Reinforced.
Shuttle; 11-Insurance. A machine
must be perfect to bear such a guar
antee.

Committee From Grand Lodge Of Odd
Fellows to Meet Next Week.
Mason City Wants Home.
Mason City, March 28.-To settle
the location of the Old Folks Home
for the Odd Fellows Of the state, the
committee appointed at the last meet
ing of the grand lodge in Des MONIES
will be in this city for their first meet
ing next week. The location Of the Or.
phans' home here has lent argument
by many to move for the location OF
the home for old folks here, as the or
der owns ample land here for the sup
port of the home and heating plant
sufficient to heat building large
enough to house them.
For the past four years the order mas
been housing the old people with the
children in the same building, with
separate apartments, but that has not
proved successful as both the children
as we'll as the old people are subject
to certain restrictions that annoy
them. There is pressure being brought
to bear to put the new building at
some other place, but a big fight VIII
be made by the north part OF the state
to put it here.
