r5y~To the Public-As Mr. Vim. Il. Jefiery
| of Bel Air, appears to be somewhat elated over
the premium on Sewing Machines, at the last
Hartford Fair, wish the public to know how it
was obtained. The Royal st. John was not ex-
amined, because the agent refused to show the
machine TO the committee, as two of them con
fessed to him that they knew nothing about
mechanism, and we came to the conclusion that
they were not competent judges. They also
said they would estimate the premium from the
| work, but the premium list said on the ma
chimes and came to examine the machines on
Tuesday morning before any work could be
| done. Mr.. Jeffrey publishes an untruth when
he says he can sell any sewing machine, when
he knows the st. John Company took the agency
away from him. But with all his undermining
work the Royal st. John stands in front and
its sales in Hartford county and wherever ii is
| introduced are much larger every year. The
Company having two large offices in Baltimore,
one No. 30 N. Gay St., the other at $50 w Bal
timore St. The ST. John Company have made
a great many new and valuable improvements
upon the machine. The Royal st. John is the
only sewing machine which will run backward
OF forward without changing direction of work
| or breaking thread or needle, with II host Of
other valuable improvements found in no other
sewing machine. Be sure to examine the Royal
before buying. For sale by James A. Waters,
