Il the fist time in an extended way the +. r..
(FAMILY FAEORIFE) WEED SEWING MA
CHINE, we will state some of the reasons why
we think we are justified in claiming it to be the
BEST:
BECAUSE, before being offered "a the people,
it was tested by able sewing machinists, and by
them so pronounced
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
Paris Exposition in 1867
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
four weeks contest between sewing machines ut
the Baltimore iMaryland) institute in 1869;
BECAUSE, it win do what any other first
class locl1-stitch will do;
| BECAUSE, it will do what most of them can
| not do. Wesay this without disparagement to
| the merits of other machines;
BECAUSE, in the five years ii has oeen before
the people, the sale has been So rapid that the
| company have been unable to supply the de-
mand, thus leaving Virginia and q great part of
| the country unsupplied and last, but not least,
to give woman's reason EA 553ra sz3
BECAUSE, it is just Il little darling" and so
easy to learn.
Price the same rs any other tir@t-class machine.
| Sold on the instalment plan If desired.
