TWO MORE GOLD MEDALS AND THREE SILVER MEDALS AWARDED TO BHB U "P LORENCE." -*- THE Highest Prizes for Sewing Machines WERE GIVEN TO THE "FLORENCE," In 1f 67, at the AMERICAN INSTITUTE, NEW. YORK (the greatest honor attainable in the United St tes); Mechanics' XastHute, in Lowell. Massachusetts, in October; IMPOSITION 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 al that is valuable ii tbe whole of them, besides w.n?.r. it has many important advantages possessed o- ko 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 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 i:o uncertain springs or brush pads, renders it almost impossible iior 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. Foctr Doors from McGkk's Hotel.
