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—riot one in a thousand. It would astound sewing machine buyers if they knew what aotunl cost is and what retail prices would be, were machines sold on the same basis as Ehoeß, or clothing, or books, or furniture, or almost any other merchandise. Why not sell them bo? Time was when patents forbade. But the basic and important patents have expired. The fb '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 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 bust 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 “EXPEBT” SEWING MACHINE. MO2E Up-to-date is ai,l Improvements Than Any Other. How can we make these little prices? Easily. We buy and sell Sewing Maohines 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. Wo don’t send out instiuctors 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.
