I can safely say that it has never missed a stitch, or soiled any of the work in my work-rooms. We have only broken two needles in the fifteen months, At your request I had the face plate removed to-day. The working parts are as good as new; indeed, I intend disposing of all the other makes of sewing machines that I now use, and to replace them with the Davis. The stays and oorsets which were awarded first order of merit in Dnnedln Exhibition were stitched on the Davis.—Yours truly, Miss Vekkall, Stay and Corset Manufacturer, Colombo street, Christchurch. Lyttelton, August 12th, 1881. Messrs H. C. fiske and Co., Agents for Davis Sewing Machine. I beg to state that it gives me great pleasure to recommend the New Davis Vertical Feed Sewing Machine, purchased from you one year ago. I would not part with it for any other machine. On taking off the face plate to-day, £ find that the working parts of the machine are as good as new—not the least sign of wear. The Little Demon friller is perfection. T. Abnold, Messrs H. O. Fiske and Co., Agents for the Davis Sewing Machine. Gentlemen, —Some time ago I purchased a Davis Sewing Machine of yon, and it is with pleasure that I testify to Its superior qualities over any other machine In this market. It Is used constantly by my wife and daughter, to their entire satisfaction. They can perform all the various kinds of work as described in your catalogue. Offing to the peculiarity of its vertical feed action, it Is enabled to sew upon any light or heavy fabric with great precision, producing a perfect stitch, whilst the simplicity of the various working parts makes the running very easy ; in fact, I consider that the Davis Family Sewing Machine is worthy of a place in every household. I have removed the face plate to ascertain if any signs of wear existed, but find, after twelve months' continuous work, that the machine is as perfect as the first day it was put into use. I remain, gentlemen, Yours truly, C. LezAbd, Watchmaker and Jeweller, Christchurch. Don't purchase a Sewing Machine until you have seen the DAVIS. ICemember that the DAVIS was awarded the only First Prizß at the Melbourne Exhibition for Hand and Treadle Sewing Machines ; also, First Prize at Sydney Exhibition. The Second Prize was awarded to the improved Singer. H. C. FISKE & CO., Corner Colombo street and Cathedral square, Agents. 8300 B RADFORD HOUSE, VICTORIA STREET. IMMENS-b. BEDTJCTIONS.
