Sec what ours can do before making purchase.
There is no doubt as to the value of our machines
for manufacturing purposes but only of late that
the public began to learn that the essential elements
of machine best adapted to the heaviest work. wo'd
also be the elements to be embodied in Family
Machine. 1t is now well understood that Letter
Machine is the only Family Machine yet offered to
the public which has simplicity, rapidly, durability,
and certainty of correct action. While rs gene raj
thing, the sewing ma chine people candid enough
to acknowledge that machines are unequaled for
manufacturing purposes, they are almost sure to as
sert, in the same BREATH that SINGERS LETTER A. or

The Nos. i and Machines of great capacity
and application for manufacturing purposes.
Our No; Machines are especially adapted to all
Trimming, Boot and Shoe making, Harness making,
etc, etc. They are of extra size, with arm long
enough to take under and stitch the largest sized
dashcs. There is scarcely any part of a Trimmers'
stitching that cannot be better done with them than
by hand so, too, the saving of time and labor is
long, and the shuttle will hold six times as much
thre the shuttle used for tailoring purposes. The
large machines work as fast as small ones.

~ We have made the above r EBUcTIoN IN PRICES
with the two-tod view Of benefting the public and
ourselves. The public have been swndled by spuri-
machines made in imitation OF ours. The metal
in them from the iron casting to the smallest piece is
of poor ruaty. Their makers have not the means to
do their work we'll. They arc hid away in secret
places where it would be impossible to have at their
command the proper meek anical appliances 1t is
only by doing great business, and having extensive
man acturng es Establishments, that good machines
can be made at moderate prices. The best designed
machines, BADLY MADE are always liable to get out
ORDER and to cost trouble and
money to keep them in repair.
The qualities to be looked for in a machine, are
certainty of correct action at all rates OF speed, SIM
plicty Of construction, great durability, and rapdity
Of operations with the least labsr Machines to CON-
bine taese essential qualities, must be made of the
best metal and finished to perfection. We have the
ways and means, on q and scale, to do this.
The purchasers of machines, wi ose daily bread ii
may concern, will find that those having the above
qualities not only work we'll at rapid well rs slow
rates Of speed but last long in the finest possible
working order. Our machines. made ty us, will
earn more money with less labor than any others,
whether in imitation of not In fact they
cheaper than any Their machines as gift.
