THIS SPACE RESERVED FOB ZACHABIAH, NEW ZEALAND TWEED COMPANY. 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 aro is common knowledge. But how many know what a orust of “ expenses ” counts in the usual retail price of all Sewing Machines—not one in a thousand. It would astound sowing machine buyers if they knew what actual cost is and what retail prices would be, were machines Bold on the same basis as Bhoes, or clothing, or books, or furniture, or almost any other merchandise. Why not sell them so? Time was when patents forbade. But the basic and important patents have expired. The field is open to anyone. Names have lost much of their significance. The they were, or arc, can no longer monopolize excellencies. All of the wall of exclusiveness ha 3 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 pioking 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 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 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 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.
