Business Notices WHEELER & WILSON’S SEWING MACHINES. Opinions op the Press : The difference between this Machine—the new WHEELER and WlLSON—perfected as here shown, and the original Wheeler and Wilson, is as great as that between the latter and the first sewing machine ever made.”— Scientific American, January 13, 1877. “The new WHEELER and WILSON IMPROVED MACHINE is so beautifully adjusted that it can sew through several thick, nesses of tin and cloth in layers without the slightest difficulty, and, in fact, can be applied to any purpose, from the making' of harness traces by the saddler to the making by a lady of her sweetheart’s handkerchief with her own hair —very poetical, perhaps, hut perfectly true.” The Sydney Town and Country Journal, April 28, 1877. “ The range and capacity of the new WHEELER and WILSON MACHINE has been increased, so that at one moment the heaviest leather work can be sewn, and at the next perfect stitching done with human hair, the only alteration required to bring about this extraordinary result being the changing of the needle and the thread. The working parts have been constructed with so much simplicity that the slightest touch of the foot on the treadle will set it going at a rapid rate. Several tests were made at the establishment of Messrs. Long and Co. yesterday, and iu every instance the machines fully upheld the important advantages claimed for them. The most astonishing feat of sewing six layers of heavy tweed with four of tin together was accomplished. The machines are well worthy of inspection.”— Aye, April 13, 1877. .

AUTION T O T HjE PUB LI C Since the introduction of UDOLPHO WOLFE'S SCHNAPPS it has become, through its wonderful medicinal merits, the most largely consumed spirit in this market, and it therefore is not surprising that it has been IMITATED AND COUNTERFEITED. Purchasers should use the greatest caution or they will have a SPURIOUS AND CHEAPER Article palmed off on them as the GENUINE SCHNAPPS. Some unprincipled people are retailing a compound of their own manufacture which they sell under the name of “WOLFE’S” SCHNAPPS. We therefore strongly advise purchasers to protect themselves, aud buy ouly ORIGINAL UNOPENED BOTTLES OR CASES, Aud thus secure the full advantages of this EXTRAORDINARY MEDICAL BEVERAGE. Every genuine bottle bears a label with our name thereon. M. MOSS & CO., Sole Wholesale Agents for Australia and New Zealand, Sydney.
