only by doing great business, and having extensive
manufacturing es establishments, that good machines
can be made at moderate prices. The best designed
machines BADLY MADE. are always liable to get out
of order and to cost trouble and
money to keep them in repair.
The qualities to be looked for in machine, are
certainty of correct action at all rates OF speed, sim
plicity of construction, great durability, and rapdty
Of operation, with the least labsr Machines to com.
bine these essential qualities, must be made or the

qualities not only work we'll at rapid Ms well as slow
rates Of speed but last long in the finest possible
working order. Our machines, as made ty US, will
earn more money with less labor than any others,
cheaper than any OF Their machines as gift.
