The “Expert” SEWING MACHINE.

HOW much and yet how little most folks know about Sewing Machines. What work-doers, what eye-savers, what breadwinners they are is common knowledge. But how 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 sewing machine buyers if they knew what aotual 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 so? Time was when patents forbade. But the basic ■ ad important patents have expired. The thud 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 exclusiveness has tumbled down—except the cumbrous, costly way of selling goodß. 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 "EXPEKT” SEWING MACHINE. Mobe Up-to-date in all Isiphovehknts Than Any Other. How can we make these little prices? Easily. We buy and sell Sewing Machines as wo buy and sell other goods. And We don’t employ canvassers and pay them hall the selling price lor getting the business. We don’t sell on instalments, and thus lose a part of the price of some Machines. Wo don’t send out instructors to give leßSona at the customer’s house—instructions are given at the store. We don’t do the business in a reokless and expensive way and make the oustomer stand the extra cost. Import Agent— WINGATE & CO., AUCKLAND. Gisborne Agent— MRS A. M. BROWNE.
