x FEW FACTS
in regard 20 the
w hite
Sewing
Machine.

1t is an acknowledged fact that the
White Sewing Machine now stands pre-
eminent among first-class machines, for
it's simplicity and light-running qualities.
1t is mechanical fact that the White
Sewing Machine is made from the best
material and of. excellent workmanship.
and all it's wearing parts are adjustable,
so that lost motion can be "taken up" in
an instant.
1t is an undisputed fact that the dura-
bility of the White Sewing Machine is
sustained by a written warranty for five
years. u....
1t is progressive fact that the White
embodies the most practical and useful
improvements of other sewing machines,
together with advantages peculiarly it's
own.
II is money-making fact that the
White is the easiest-selling selling ma
chine in the market, and therefore all
wideawake dealers make it their speciality.
1t is gratifying fact that the White
gives universal satisfaction, and that it is
steadily and rapidly increasing in public
favor.
