'-VTOTICE
ll Having de'ofs ot our own to pav, |
we respectfully call upon all per-ons, knowing them- |
selves to be in our debt, to pay up.
This notice is not intended for those of our friends !
who pay us promptly j but especially for a certain j
large class, who, having purchased our goods, never j
trouble themselves about paying for the stiae.— j
Many of the latter having had the use of our cap- i
ital so long so long, must really imagine they have ;
a better right to it than ourselves. To this class j
we now say, in language which we hope they will j
not misunderstand , we want at least a portion of oik j
means in their bands to meet oui own liabilities, j
and if kind invitations to PAY UP, avail not, we j
will try a harsher, though very unpleasant remedy, \
ere long.

N O person who contemplates purchasing a Sewing
Machine for family or m inufactnring purposes
should fail to send for one of o-r Circulars, which
contains cuts and full descriptions of the several
styles, prices and samples of work, all of which we
send by mail free. We claim to have the
BEST SEWING MACHINES IN THE WORLD
| For either Family or Manufacturing Purposes.
And all we ask is a lair trial. Read the following :
IMPORTANT FACTS.
FACT No. I.—This Company being duly licensed,
their Machines aie protected against infringe
menls or litigation.
FACT No. 2.—These Machines make the lo k
stitch—alike on both sides—and use a little less
'than half as much thread and silk as the chain
or loop-stitch machines.
FACT No. 3.—These Machines are better adapted
than any other sewing-machines in market to the
frequent changes and almost endless variety of
sewing required in a family. They will sew
from one to twenty thicknesses of Marseilles
without stopping, and make every stitch perfect.
They will even sew from the finest gauze to the
heaviest cloth, and even stout, hard leather,
without changing the feed, needle, or tensioi , or
making any adjustment of machine whatever—
Is not such a machine best adapted to family use?
and if best adapt ed to family use, why not for
every variety of light sewing manufacture ? For
work too heavy for our Family Machine, we rec
ommend our larger sizes.
FACT No. 4. —These Machines make the most e
lastic seam ol ary sewing-machine in use—a fact
of very great importance in sewing elastic goods,
or goods of any kind, or a bias.
FACT No. s.—No Machine is more durable or
more simple in its construction, or more easily
understood. The reputation of these Machines
wherever used will fully demonstrate each of the
above facts.
FACT No. C-—These Machines took the Highest
Premium at the Franklin Institute, Philadel
pnia.
FACT No. 7—These Machines took the Highest
Premium at the New Jersey State Fair.
FACT No B.—These Machines took the Highest
Medal at the American Institute, in the City of
New Y>rk, together with the Highest Premium
for tine Sewing-Machine Work.
FACT No. 9.—These Machines took both the
Highest Premiums at the Mechanics' Fair, Utica,
FACT No. 10.—These Machines can do the same
thing geneially, whenever properly exhibited in
competition with other first-class Sewing Ma
chines. But we have space for only one fart
more—it is the most important Fact of .11
FACT No. 11.— We warrant every Machine we setl
to give better satis/action than any ohc Sewing-
Machine in market, or money refunded.
