THE Highest Prizes for Sewing Machines WERE GIVEN TO THE "FLORENCE," In 1? 67, AT THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE, NEW YORK (the greatest honor attainable in the United %^t-tes); Mechanics' Institute, in Lowell, Massachusetts. in October; EXPOSITION UNIVEKSELLE, PAHIS, in July; Manchester and Liverpool Agricultural Society's Centenary Exhibition, in August; and at Coventry and Midland Manufacturing Industrial and Art Exhibition, in October. THE BEST FAMILY SEWING MACHINE in the world _t comprises all the good points, and combines il that is valuable in the whole of them, besides w:n _ it has many important advantages possessed o no other machine. THE REVERSIBLE FEED enables the operator to sew either way ; fasten to ends of seams without stopping or turning the work. IT HAS THE SELF-ADJUSTING SHUTTLE | TENSION. IT MAKES FOUR KINDS OF STITCHES. THE SAVING OF THREAD over machines making the chain or embroidery stitch will in one year be more than the cost ol the machine. — — THE LOCK STITCH, compared with thechain stitch, is less clumsy, — is less liable to be washed or ironed off, and does not, like the latter, form a network to retain dirt. THE EXACT AND POSITIVE MOTION of every part, with no uncertain springs or brush pads, renders it almost impossible for a Florence Machine to get out of order, and enables even an ordinary operator to use it successfully. IT USES THE SAME SIZE THREAD on both sides, and both sides of the seam are alike THAT IT IS THE BEST, is evidenced by the fact that of the thousands sold in tbe United Kingdom during the past two years, none give dissatisfaction. All extras, fifteen articles and one dozen needles 7FREE OF CHARGE. ALF R E D — O A7K EY, ) SOLE AGENT FOR NEW ZEALAND Bridge-street. Four Doors prom McGeb's Hotel.
