Something New That is Worth Seeing.
----------

          The Indiana Washing Machine, the boss of the world, manufactured by the Hand Brothers, Shelbyville, and on exhibition in the Dorsey block, South Harrison street.  This machine is positively a perfect success, cleaning clothes even more perfectly than can be done on a washboard, and positively without any perceivable wear on them.  A child ten or twelve years can do the work as well as a woman, and you can wash from a pocket handerchief to twenty shirts at a time, always doing its work rapidly and well.  It does four times the amount of work of any other machine made in the same time, and the quality of work is never equaled by any machine.  Any one contemplating buying a machine should not fail to call and see for themselves and be convinced that what we state is true, as they can see the machine tested and see its work any day by calling at the north door of the Dorsey block. HAND  BROTHERS,  Proprietors.
