It comprises.all the good points, and combines all that is valuable in the whole of them, besides which it has many important advantages possessed bv h6 other machine. THE REVERSIBLE FEED L 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 co^t ol the machine. • THE LOCK STITCHj compared with the chain stitch, is less clumsy,— is less liable to be washed or ironed off, and doea 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 $AME 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 the UniteS Kingdom duringthe past two years, none give dissatisfaction. All extras, fifteen articles and one dozen needles FREE OF CHARGE. .ALFRED OAKEY, , SOLE, AGENT FOR NEW ZEALAND 1 Bbidoce-stbeet.; Fotjb : Pqq&s from 3 McGeb's Hotbl." .; ILORENOE MACHINES SOLD ON ■ ] •'-"■•■ '"monthLy^^payments <: ;j ,*,., ; J RICHMOND BREWERY.--<iCIPARK!LING HbME.BREW>D i AljE, ; 2/3 )5 per Gallon.- -Warranted Pore and TJn,'adulterated. , ; ;CEekms Gash^ : ■■ ,V:O. ;;'..; H,j v or ; >JJAMBS'= ROBERTS, Proprietor.
