THIS SPACE RESERVED EOR IOIDHAItIAH, NEW ZEALAND TWEED COMPANY. The “ Expert ” SEWING MACHINE.

HOW muoh 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 sewiDg machine buyers if they knew what actual coßt is and what retail prices would be, were maohines sold on the same basis as shoes, or olothing, or books, or furniture, or almost any other merchandise. Why not sell them so? Time was when patents forbade. But the basio and important patents have expired. The field is open to anyone. Names have lost much of their significance. The they were, or are, can no longer monopolize exoellenoles. All of the wall of exclusiveness has tumbled down—oxcept the oumbross, costly way of selling goods. Why shouldn’t It go too? Hers 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. Moan Up-to-date in all Ijipbovehents Than Any Other. How oan we make these little prioes? Easily. We buy and sell Sewing Maohines as wo 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 price of some Machines. Wei don’t send out instructors to give leßsons 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 customer Stand the extra cost. Import Agent— WINGATE & CO., AUCKLAND. Gisborne Agent— MBS A. M. BKOWNE.
