largely increasing. We are not so vain as to
suppose that these large sales are due to supe
ror business capacity so much as to the merits
Of oTr machines, as we'll rs the observation of
those who buy and use, and are personally in
terested in comparing the merits Of the differ
ent machines before making selection.
Few have denied, in fact it has been the hab-
il of sewing machine dealers, till recently, to
speak in laudation Of our manuf, curing ma
chimes, but in the same breath to deny the
merits of our machine for family sewing. II
was usual to say to lady looking for sew

featuring machine, the Singer is the best" as
if we made but one kind Of machine only, and
had no Family sewing machine at all, though

and even then the favorite, ever ready and
never wcarying seaInstress Of many well reg
ulated household Our machine, however, told
its own story in the great range and variety of
excellent and beautiful family sewing which it
is capable of doing. and the sales show that its
story was not entirely disbeleved or we would
not have sold last year 127 1888 machines, being
words in the English language, and all this has
lions and fairs, excepting only the worlds fair
