4 FLORENCE
800 nLAST BUT NOT LEAST"

WYE had supposed that Sewing Machines had
w come to perfection some time ago, but a new
one has arisen greater than all before IT, surprising
in every point Of excellence all its predecessors do
ing all the old ones ever could do with greater
and having improvements that none in existence APP
proach. No matter what may be said in favor OF
the various Machines in use, The only proper and
certain way Of deciding upon their relative merits
is by actual comparison. Thiss the test which the
Florence Sewing Machine Company invites. !.
The FLORENCE is wonderful Machine, and all
will think SO when they have once seen il, with its
perfect tension reversible feed, four different stitch
es, &C., &C.. preparing its own work without bast-
ing and fastening Off its seam like thing OF
life" Persons thinking of buying will ever regret
il if thew do not see il before purchasing. The A
gent in exhibiting this Machine, will perform work
never before attempted on any other Machine, some
of which will be to sew from the heaviest woollens
on 10 the lightes tissue paper wihom stopping the
Machine changing tension or anything aboutit, do
ing perfect work on both. BY simply touching a
little lever to change from one stitch to any OF the
four different stitches rithom stopping the Machine.
To change the length of the stitch riuout stoPping
or any way interfering with the work 70 reverse
the feed and sew either way fasen Oft the ends Of
seams rithout stopping or any way interfering with
the work. To turn hem Of any width ,eifhom be Z
ing or in any way preparing the work. And nth
out stopping the Machine, TO change instantly from
running up straight seam 10 making the mostper-
feet rufing, gathering and sewing on toany degree
Of fulness, and all SO simple that child ten years
Ithems, fels, binds, gathers, braids, quilts, and
gathers and sews on rattle at the same time.
