TO THE PEOPLE OF VIRGINIA.

TN PRESENTING TO YOUR NOTICE, FOR
l. the fist time in an extended way, the T.
(FAMILY FAYORITE) 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 to the people,
it was tested by able sewing machnists, and by
them SO pronounced;
BECAUSE, it took the first prize at the great
Paris Exposition in 1867; .-r eIt
BECAUSE, 1t took the first prize at the great
four weeks contest between sewing achines at
the Baltimore (Maryland) Institute in $780,
BECAUSE, it will do what any other first
class locls-stitch will do -s
BECAUSE, it will do what most of them can
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 a great part of
the country unsupplied; and last, but not least,
to give a woman's reason,
BECAUSE, it is just 'little darling" and SO
easy to learn
Price the same as any other first-class machine
Sold on the instalment plan, If desired.
Machines sent on trial and instruction given
free.
A history of the sewing-machine and an &C.
count of the great four weeks contest at Balti-
more, sent free on application.

Each doing what he finds to do,
