wife says II is my duty to make IL known. The
trouble with most appliances for the arrangement

The Admiration Of the Worlds
No modern invention has come SO near,
and been SO closely allied with the people
of every grade, as the sewing machine.
And what revolution there has been In
this wonderful invention, since Elias
Howe, In 1916, secured patent on the
the first complete sewing machine One
after another, improvements have been
made, until to-day the sewing machine is
the admiration of the world, and is cher
ished as the most useful and necessary ar
ticle in every household. The most won
derful of all the machines now before the
public is the DAVIS.
The degree of perfection and utility to
which this machine has been brought.
the endeavors Of the inventor to keep
ahead of all competitors, are something
marvellous. The vertical feed" which
is used only by this machine, is in itself a
feature possessing advantages that at
once captivates the people The automat-
ic work done by the Davis is acknowl-
edged by the most critical experts to be
unrivalled, and that it stands in the mar
ket without successful competitor, is
unquestioned. No other machine can
duplicate the work which can be done
with the Davis, neither is it claimed for
them by their respective representatives.
Investigation Of the merits Of the Davis
is solicited. Such investigation will re-
pay you, whether or not you wish to pur-
chase. Yours respectfully,
SAMUEL ]. PICKERING. Agent.
