LADIES',
Did You Ever Notice

How yopr back hurts after several
hours speIt at the sewing machine,
bending over sideways to properly feed
the cloth under the needle bar? Very
painful, isn't? Did you ever think why
this is so? No? Well, it is simply be-
cause that with the ordinary sewing

out of center of the machine table and
the treadle and it is necessary to lean
to one side-give the back a twist-to
get the eve in line with the needle bar.
But relief has come at last. The trick
has been turned and you will find that
the next sewing machine you buy will
not give you that troublesome pain
caused by the twist Of the spinal col
umn. The next machine you buy will

horses must be far broader IN his knowledge and

humans alone or he cannot hope to get the rewards
