FoK the PRIVATE EAR OF OUR READERS
In the experience Of editors, there are many
times WREN pattcns ask for fasors In the edi-
torfal cslamHs of 3 newspaper, to spsek ia
vorably of an article which is being brought
into general notice. ans which hiss every ap-
pearance of merit. and still tscks tine actual
fact that such an article has given complete
satisfaction to the consumer-that is. It is
simply the difference between promise and
the ,fulillment thereof. 10 be able to say
1--WE ARE actually doing this thing, and here
is the proof and result" has much more
convincing effect on public opinion, than
simply to say-"we can or will do this thing"
Promises are good, but facts are much bet
ter. Now all this is simply the prelude to
certain facts that exist. The Florence Sew
ing Machine Co. opened large and elegant
salesIooa at No. sos Broadway, some time
last Summer They promised much in re-
gard Co sheff Reversible Feed Lock Stitch
Sewing Machine. Their reputation was
gsod both East ana Wsst, but yet they had
to make Metropolitan reputation. Suff;s-
lent time has how elapsed 70 find out wheth-
ef tile promises made in regstd to the Flor.
ence Machine have been fulfilled. we have
taken some pains to fiEa ont, because re
were Interested to kAgr how Sewing Ma
chine would tarn Get which promised to
make four stitches and sew both ways, and
had tension which took care Of itself, and
thst could gather tuAse aaa eew 1t Oh at
the same time. To successfully and faithful
ly atcc~Ylish that to the entire satisfaction
of the public Is to attain point of perfec-
ton worthy Of notice. We can easily close
tAis article by saying, that in our investiga-
ta5,A cf this matter, we are satisfied that the
Florence Machine has truly made good to
the public its boast of being the best machine
in the world for family use.-Ne,o York DIS
