II is surprising that when gentle man wish
es to purchase an article which he desires to
last him life time, he would lake anything
that is 7ght unsolicited to his home or buy
the first article of the kind Offered him Now, if
that article should be SEWING MACHINE
if you fail to examine the superior merits OF the
DAVIS and test its qualities, you will be in the
same category with scores of Others in this mo
Rockoridge counties, who have purchased other
machines and now wish they owned the DA-
Wis.
From all directions hear Of my machine be-
ing denounced as worthless. by parties who are
interested in The sale of others. Az agent of
the Singer said to 4 lady lend of mine. ''The
Davis won't last no time, it will soon wear out,
saw an old Davis out il. the country the other
day, i, was perfect old rattle-trap,' and the
- q !
may be true. and be could have said the same of
the Gold Singer
do not sell the 'tOld Davis" 1t is the
NEW ONE | SELL, and it is warranted for
FIVE YEARS.
For the consolation of that agent will say
some laoies appreciate the merits ofhis machine,
as evidenced by the fact that / sold to lady
one had taken in exchange for 'Davis."
One agent for another machine said "that fell
low around on Augusts street is humbugging
the people awfully with that old Davis Ma
chine" That ntleman must be troubled with
dyspepsia, and his slumbets at night ale disturb
ed by visions of that telHoao and the New LAWS
Machine Oh, how pity him Please read
what those have to say (who have been hum
bugged) who own and have tested the superior
qualities of the Davis Mrs Mary Lewis near
Bethel Church, says, ~ am charmed with my
machine would not exchange it for any ma
chine ever saw think the gatherer is the
grandest thing of the kind, and works beauti-
fully," Mrs. Harris, of Fishersville, although
owning Domestic and having more work than
she and daughters could do on one Machine,
purchased the DAVIS about three months ago.
Since that time, upon their recommendation |
have sold in that eighborhood machines to the
following persons; Mrs. Baskins, Mrs. Curd,
Miss K. Bateman, Mrs Bateman and Mrs. Cam"
den, ask any of them, and they will tell you
how delighted they are at being humbugged by
that s'feilow."
Mr.. VIM Hanger, near Waynesboro', called
at my store on the 10th of Oct to examine the
machine, He remarked l have heard other
agents run down that machine so much that l
have concluded it must possess superior quail
ties TO theirs, or they would not take so much
pains to denounce it, here is thirty-fve dollars,
send me one to Waynesboro'.

Weirs, her daugf ter said ttMsjor, we are per-
fectly charmed with our Mach me-" also MISS

Miss McCausland, Mrs. John G.. Echord, of
Staunten Mrs. Moliie Switzer, residing al
Edinburg, Shenandoah COUNTY, called at my
store Saturday, Oct, 9th, after a thorough ex
animation of the s3avis, she remarked II have
mad " bite Machine n trial for two weeks,
but prefer yours send mo one to Edinburg "
She is so pleased with her purchase that she has
applied to the company for the agency for Shen-
andoah county, The Davis is standard ma
chine in every sense of the word, and was in
vented May 18th, 1854, since that time from yea ar
to year the impro vements have been invented and
put upon it, and but for the fact (known
to every body,) that all companies were
crowded out of the market by the combination
company, composed Of the Singer, Grover &
Baker, Howe, and Wheeler & Wilson, the Davis
would have taken rank with sny of them long
since. In May last, Congress cut the throat of
that monopoly by refusing to extend the 'com-
biuation patent.'' The poor man who could
lot buy d machine before, owing to the high |
prices can now buy frst-class Davis Machine
with all the extra attachments for $35 Call at |
J. ". NEWTON'S Store,
