HOUSEHOLD TREASURE.
Growing Popularity of the OXFORD Sew
Ing MRnhincs

There is nothing more truly household
treasure than good sewing machine. To
be without it is to be willfully deprived Of
the immense advantage of one of the great
est OF all inventions. A machine once
bought is perpetual treasure. 1t demands
40 wages. occasions no expense or trouble,
and is always ready without moments
notice 10 render the work of the laborious
housewife tenfold more efficient and ex-
pcditious. Some machines combine the best
ideas and suggestions which have been so
abundantly introduced in this remarkable
mechanism.
A machine which exhibits in liberal COM
bination all the best features introduced Is
the Oxford Sewing Machine, made by the
Oxford Manufacturing Company, Chicago,
with lock-stitch shuttle running light and
quiet. These machines have tho following
important features: Cheapness, perfect,
self-adjusting and graduated tension, are
under control Of the operator and are
always positive in their working. They are
entirely self-threading in all points, includ-
ing the shuttle. The needle Is self-setting,
the attachments are quickly and easily
placed and fastened. The shuttle has an
easy oscillating motion, causing 10 to keep
its proper place against the race. Their
Oxford, No Ia and Columbia machines,
with attachments, were awarded the medal
premium at the Worlds Columbian EXPOSE
ton, Chicago.
