WHEN I SAY THAT
The Davis Sewing Machine
(leads all' others, it is not merely
'to fill a column with an adver-
Uiscment. I mean that no other
machine is so simple. I mean
''that no other machine is o fine
fry made. Anil that no other
machine, is so easily run. The
"Davis" is palishetllikc a watch;
Ut will not-kill a -woman to run
&t, it will db more than double
'the amount of work, without
'basting, than any other machine
tenn do. All other sewing ma-:
'chine men acknowledge thia,but
6ay, "Our's is the cheapest."
But T say to buy a cheap sewing
machine is not economy the
rhestiistahvays the cheapest.
