Opposite the Post Office,
AUGUSTA, MAINE.
These Machines, by their simplicity durability, and
the great range of work they execute,
have gained reputation truly
cnyiable.

The famous success of the SINGER MANUFAcTUR-
ING COMPANY has stimulated many other compan-
les to put forth all their energies and talents to
produce sewing machine that would eclipse or
equal the Singer, but in every case they have slg-
all the travelling agents-'runners or drummers"
of other companies, none have the assurance TO
claim more than an equality with the singer, even
upon any special class of work.
There are many sewing machines, now offered to
the public that have their good points, and are OF
much assistance to the housewife and the industri
ous seamstress Parties purchasing 4 sewing ma
chine of any sort, find the Improvement on the olo
fashioned way of sewing by hand 50 great ana
pleasing, that they naturally, but enormously,
led believe that they have the best until the spell
is broken by the introduction of the Singer Of 1870
into a ueghbor's family, which is sure, by the IN

kind of plain or fancy sewing, TO awaken then 10

varieties of work that are easily executed upon te

Parties in quest of Il Sewing Machine should LOOK
about them and learn what machine is most eNten-
sivev used in families tailor shops. shoe tactores
and carriage factories. 1t is an acknowledged Jact,

These Machines are manufactured by one of the
oldest strongest, and most enterprislng Compan,
les that has ever been engaged in the business in
the world Throughout their immense manuiac-
tories which are kept in constant operation day
and night" none but highly skilled mechanics are
employed. Newly improved machinery j en-
pluyed turning out each part finished to that me-
thanieai exactness that every one Is perfect dt
plicate of the other in size, weight and nnlsh All
new inventions carefully examined and tested,
and If approved, are adopted, reSardless OF eN.
pense while the many impractical humbugs that
are patented, are left to grace some new wonder
and learn the purchaser when too late, that he mas
paid too dear for his whistle" Ii should be re-
membered that the Singer Manufacturing Com
pany has never made a poor Machne-from the
very first twenty odd years ago. They never buy
editorial notices, eXpend funds in ''Iog-rolllng
at Fairs to gain medals or premiums.
They simply make their Machines as valuable as
money and science can perfect them-place them
in their Sales Rooms and leave the public to nnd
out their virtues in their own way By this straight
forward course they are now manufacturing about
four hundred per day and at that rate, even are
unable TO supply the demand.
