THE SINGER AT THE
EXPOSITION.

The name of SINGER stands
for family sewing -machine" in every
known language. The familiar sign
with its brilliant carmine Isis found
in every city in the world, and no prod
uct of American skill is better known,
or has wider vogue.
The fact that Singer machines
are "made for every stitching pro-
cess" used in manufactures is not so
well known and most visitors to the
Exposition will be greatly interested
in the exhibit to be made by THE
SINGER MANUFACTURING COM
PANY.
There will be two Singer pavil-
ions, one in the Manufactures Building,
from the American factories, and one
in the Varied Industries Building,
from the British factory.
Here one may see the practical
manufacture of Corsets, Muslin I'm
derwear, Shoes, Mems Wear, etc, by
operatives from leading establish
ments in these industries. There will
be machines for stitching the heaviest
rubber and leather betting, for making
a dozen dainty tuclxs at once, for
attaching all kinds of buttons, hooks
and eyelets, for sewing sails, for
stitching kid gloves and furs, in short,
for everything that can, or might
be stitched.
There are eighty, or more dis
tinct types of Singer sewing machines
for manufacturing purposes, and these
types are adapted to many hundred
varieties for a thousand or more spe-
cial uses, all interesting and educa-
tional to the great majority of people.
The display of Art Needlework,
for which the Singer Company has
long beer noted, will excel anything
previously shown and the various
types of sewing-machines for family
use will include some new designs
recently perfected and about to be
placed on the market.
