The “ Expert ” SEWING MACHINE,

HOW much and jet how little most folks know about Sewing Machines. What work-doers, what eye-savers, what breadwinners they are is common knowledge. But bow many know what a crust of “ expenses ” counts in the usual retail price of all Sewing Machines—not one in a thousand. It would astound sewiDg machine buyers if they knew what actual cost is and what retail prices would be, were maobines sold on the same basis as shoes, or clothing, or books, or furniture, or almost any other merchandise. Why not sell them so? Time was when patents forbade. But the basic -ud important patents have expired. The fL.d is open to anyone. Names have lost much of their significance. The they were, or are, can no longer monopolize excellencies. All of the wall of exolusivcness has tumbled down—except the cumbrous, costly way of selling goods. Why shouldn't it go too? Here are the “EXPERT” Sewing Machines. The best machine that 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 “EXPERT" SEWING MACHINE. Mobe Up-to-date in all Improvements Than Any Other. How can we make these little pricea? Easily. We bay and sell Sewing Machines as we buy and sell other goods. And We don’t employ canvassers and pay them half the selling price forgetting the business. We don’t sell on instalments, and thus loso 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 in a reckless and expensive way and make the customer stand the extra cost. Import Agent— WINGATE & CO., AUCKLAND. Gisborne Agent— MES A. M. BEOWNE.
