JL THE Highest Phizes for Sewing Machines WERE GIVEN TO THE "FLORENCE," In 1£67, at the AMERICAN INSTITUTE, NEW YORK (the greatest honor attainable in the United Stttes); Mechanics' Institute, in Lowell, Massachusetts, in October; EXPOSITION UNIVERSELLE, PARIS, 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. It comprises all the good points, and combines nl- that is valuable in the whole of them, besides wnuk it has many important advantages possessed b^ no other machine. THE REVERSIBLE FEED enables the operator to sew either way; fasten to snds 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 coat oi the machine. THE LOCK STITCH, compared with the chain 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 the United Kingdom during the past two years, none give dissatisfaction. All extras, fifteen articles and one dozen needles FREE OF CHARGE. ALFRED OAKEY, SOLE AGENT FOR NEW ZEALAND Bridge-street. Four Doors from McGee's Hotel.
