BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
Paris Exposition in 1867; T4
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
four weeks contest between sewing machines at
the Baltimore (Maryland) Institute in 1869; s
BECAUSE, it will do what any other first

not do. We say this without disparagement to
the merits of other machines;
BECAUSE, in the five years it has been before
the people, the sale has been so rapid that the
company have been unable to supply the de-
mand, thus leaving Virginia and great part of
the country unsupplied; and last, but not least,
to give a woman's reason, ~ ~ rt4-a $50
