The “ Expert ” SEWING MACHINE, HOW much and yet how little most folks know about Sewing Machines. What work-doers, what eye-savere, what breadwinners they are is common knowledge. But how many know what a crust of “ expenses ” counts in the usual retail prieo of all Sewing Muohines—not one in a thousand.
