The “ Expert ” SEWING MACHINE, HOW much unci jet how little most folks know about Sewing Machines. What work-doers, what oye-savers, what breadwinners they are is common knowledge. But how maDy know what a crust of “ expenses ” counts in the usual retail price of all Sewing Machines—not one in a thousand. It would astound sewing machine buyers if they knew what actual cost is and what retail prices would be, were machines sold on the same basis as shoes, or clothing, or books, or furniture, or almost any other merchandise. Why not sell them to ? Time was when patents forbade. But the basic nd important patents have expired. The b- d is open to anyone. Names have lost muoh of their significance. The they were, os are, oan no longer monopolize excellencies. All of the wall of exclusiveness has tumbled down—except tbo cumbrous, costiy way of selling goods. Why should::'; it go too? Hero are the “EXPEBT” SewiDg Machines. The best machine Hint could be made by picking from all the goodness of other machines. Taken all in all, we count it the BEST Sewing Machine on the market. THE "EXPEBT” SEWING MACHINE. Mobe Up-to-date is all Improvements Tuan Ant Otheb. How oan we make these little prices? Easily. We buy and sell Sewing Machines as we bHy and sell other goods. And We don’t employ canvassers and pay them half the selling price for getting the business. We don’t sell on instalments, and thus lose a part of the price of some Machines. We don’t send out instructors to give lessons at the customer’s house—instructions are given at the store. We don’t do the business iu a reckless and expensive way and make the oustomer stand the extra cost. Import Agent— WINGATE & CO., AUCKLAND. Gisborne Agent— MRS A. M. BROWNE.
