The question is often asked by per-
sons who wish to purchase different a.
ticles, such as machinery, wagons, clocks
&c, which make is the best We are
always glad to give such information
Wn6D IN orr power. " Will take TIE
one article Of Sewing Machines, for in-
stance, and the way we will prove which
of them is the best will answer for any
other kind of machine as we'll The
figures used below are sworn returns of
the different companies to the owners of
patents, and we can vouch for their ac-
Curacy
The Singer Sewing Machine Compa-
nv sold in 1872, 2i9,75S, in 1873,
232, 444, an increase OF 1866. The
Grover and Baker sold in 1872, 5000,
in 1873, 36,I79, n decrease of 1881
Wilson sold in 1872, 22,6G6, and in '73
2I 247, a decrease of l ,4I9. What does
this prove Simply that the Singer
Manufacturing Co. sells about as many
Machines as all the other % different
kinds put together, and that it sus;ains
ts reputation and increases its sales,
while all the others decrease 10 number
and reputation.
The Singer Company never breaks a
promise and by manufacturing Machines
which they are never ashamed of car
always sell their machines while all 9th
er companies do not always keep their
promises. The Singer Machine can be
purchased of Fred K. Foote or his Agents
