HOW much and yet bow little most folks know about Sewing Machines. What work-doers, what eye-savers, what breadwinners they are is common knowledge. But bow 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 thttnso? 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 are, can no longer monopolize exeellenoles. All of the wall of exclusivenoss has tumbled down—except the oumbrous, costly way of selling goods. Why shouldn’t it go too ? Here are the “EXPEBT" Sewing Machines. The best machino 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 “EXPERT” SEWING MACHINE. Mo3£ Up-to-date in add Improvements Tuan Any OxuEit. How can we make theso little prices? Easily. We buy and sell Sewing Machines as we buy and sell other goods. And We don't employ canvnssers 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 tho customer stand the extra cost. Import Agent— WINGATE & CO., AUCKLAND. Gisborne Agent— MES A. M. BROWNE.
