When I Say That The Davis Sewing Machine leads all others, it i>< not merely to fill a column with an advertisement. I mean that, no other machine in so simple' I mean that no other machine is so finely made! And that no other machine is so e.-iMily run! The "Davis" is polinhed like a watch; it will not kill a woman to run it; it will do more than double the variety of work, without basting, than any other machine can do. All other sewing-machine men acknowledge this, but says, "Our's Is the cheapest." But I say that to buy a cheap sewing ma chine is not economy. The best is al ways the cheapest.
