NEW EASTERN DEPOT rOR THE WORLD RENOWNED. SINGER SEWING MACHINES, Opposite the Post Office, AUGUSTA, - - MAINE. These Machines, by their simplicity, durability, and the great range of work they execute, nave gained a reputation truly enviable. The famous successor the singer M knufacti k* ing Company has stimulated many other compan ies t<* put forth all their energies* and talents to produce a sewing machine that would eclipse or equal the singer, but in every ease they have sig nally tailed, as is plainly shown M' the tact, that of all the travelling agents—“ runners or drummers” —of other companies*, none have the assurance to claim mote than an equality with the Singer, even upon any special class of work. There’are many sewing machines, now offered to the public, that have their good points, and are of much assistance to the housewife and the industri ous seamstress. Parties purchasing a sewing ma chine of any sort, tind the improvement on the old fashioned way of sewing by hand so great and pleasing, that they are naturally, but erroneously, led to ladleve that they have the lies!. until the spell is broken by the introduction of the Sin get' of 1870 into a neighbor’s family, which is sure, by the in creased rapidity and ease with which it does every kind of plain or fancy sewing, to awaken them to a I»ositive. althomrh it mav be silent acknowledge ment of the painful truth that there are very many varieties of work that are easily executed upon the Singer, but that they must either be content to do without, or exchange, at a heavy pecuniary sacri fice. their curved-needled. frail-powered, unrelia ble-ten*ioned, low speeded or ravel-stitched ma chine for a Singer Sew Family Machine. Various expedient- are resorted to, that the pub lic eye may be turned from the Singer for the pur pose of introducing inferior machines—viz, “The Button-Hole Dodge,” “The Over-Seaming,” “The Double-Lock-Knot-Stitch, ’’“Elastic Stitch.” “Twist ed Loop,” “Self-Adjusting Tensions,” “ilingFinish ami Beautifully Ornamented,” “Straight Needle,” “Stitch-Alike-on-both-Sides,” “Medals from Fairs,” “Vertical Feed Bars,” “Noiseless Running,” “Silent Feed,” and last and worst of all, the low-priced— “Family Shuttle Machines.” Many of these points are desirable, (and the Singer excelis all in each individual speciality) but the greatest use made of these special points* is by the retail agent who parades them before the inex perienced purchaser with such lluent and earnest style, as to entirely divert attention from the really important bearings of the case. While other inno cent local agents ignorantly represent that the ma chine sold by them is capable of doing every varie ty of work, equal to the Singer, and often do they thus unconsciously swindle customers w ho cannot afford to squander their substance upon gilded follies and worthless rattle-traps. Parties in quest of a Sew ing Machine should look , about them and learn what machine is most exten sively used in families, tailor shops, shoe factories, and carriage factories. It is an acknowledged fact, , ireely admitted by all surma machine dealers, that , more than tiro-third# of all the clothing team in this I country by hath se.res. whether custom made or ready i made, is actually manufactured upon THE SINGER i sewing Machine ; These Machines are manufactured by one of the > oldest, strongest, and most enterprising Compaii r ies that has ever been engaged in the business in ! the world. Throughout their immense manufac i lories, w hich are kept in constant operation “day 1 and night,” none but highly skilled mechanics are * employed. Newly improved machinery is cm- \ I ployed turning out earn part finished to that me ‘ chanical exactness, that every one is a perfect dit- 1 ^ plicate of the other in sue. weight and unish. All j y new inventions an* carefully examined and tested. 1 t and if approved, are adopted, regardless of ex- i ► pense, while the many impractical humbug? that | are patented, are left to grace some new wonder , and learn the purchaser w hen too late, that he has 1 “paid too dear for his whistle.” It should be re , membered that the Singer Manufacturing Cora \ pany has never made a poor Machine—from the very first tw enty-odd years ago. They never buy editorial notices, or expend funds in “log-rolling” : at Fairs to gnin medals or premiums. \ They simply make their Machines as valuable as • money and science can perfect them—place them 4 in their Sales Rooms, and leave the public to find i out their virtues in their own way. By this straight ! forward course they are now ma*nmacturing about ; four hundred per day, and at that rate, even, are i unable to supply the demand. WHAT IS THE NEW FAMILY RINGER OP IR70? It Is the concentrated result of twenty years ex perience in building Sewing Machines. It uses very short straight needles. I It makes the Shuttle or Lock Stitch alike up*»n j ’ both sides of the work. It is very light running and has a silent feed. 1 It is very easily kept clean, and is always in [ order. } It is less difficult to understand and learn to \ operate than any other. It has the most simple and easily adjusted ten » sion ever invented. f It is less liable to rust than any other. ’ It is so constructed that dust cannot enter it or ! oil drop trorn it. . It works equally well upon the finest Lace or ; heaviest Beaver Cloths. It will hem ruffling* of dress goods over seams ’ without any preparation. It is very high-speeded, and requires very little power to keep in motion. It will out-wear any other Family Machine ever j made. It will Hem, Braid, Fell, Cord Tack, Ruffle, Em broider. Bind, Trim, &c. ; it costs $00 delivered at your house, 6et to run- j ning and warranted. Covers, Folding Tops, Cabinets, according to fin- t • ish, $05 to $250. - The prices named above, are the cash prices at : , the Manufactory, but knowing that the various cir- , ; eumstunces ot 'all will not admit of the rigid C. O. 1). principle, it has been decided to divide the amount into month 1 y or in some cases w eekly pay ments, in euch a manner as will best suit the con venience of the purchaser. This is done purely for the accommodation of the : natron, as no extra charge is made from the regu lar cash prices. • No charge for instructions in operating the Sing er’s upon any class of work.
