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 oommon 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 olothing, or books, or furniture, or almost any other merchandise. Why not sell them 60 ? Time was when patents forbade. Butthe basio and important patents have expired. The f - 'J is open to anyone. Names have lost mucli of their significance. The they were, or are, oan 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 be made by picking from all the goodneßS of other machines. Taken all in all, we count it the BEST Sewing Machine on the market.

THE “EXPERT” SEWING MACHINE. Moee Up-to-date in- all Improvements Than Any Other. Eow can we make these little prioes? Easily. We bay and sell SewiDg 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 Bell on instalments, and thus lose a part of the prioe 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 oost. Import Agent— WINGATE & CO., AUCKLAND. Gisborne Agent— MES A. M. BKOWNE.
