HOW much and yet how little mo9t 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 Maohines—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 so? Time was when patents forbade. But the basic nd important patents have expired. The ii lis 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 goods. Why shouldn’t it go too?

Here are the “EXPERT” Sewing Machines. The best machine that could bo made by picking from all the goodness of other machines. Taken all in all, wo count it the BEST Sewing Machine on the market. THE "EXPEBT” SEWING MACHINE. More Up-to-date in all Improvements Than Ant Other. How can we make these little prices? Easily. We buy and sell Sewing Machines as we buy 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 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— MRS A. M. BROWNE.
