INTERESTING OFFER AND A FINE EXHIBIT.
During the past two days of the Winter Show many visitors have made a special visit to Messrs. Tonson Garlick and Company's fctand in shed No. 0. where a special demonstration is being given of the beautiful Bebarfald-Vickers sewing machine. Apart from the very marked superiority of this machine the company have adopted a most acceptable way of advertising it. They are presenting to each purchaser a beautiful oak chair made to match any furniture. An Exceptional Machine. In connection with the BebarfaldVickers machine, the head rises with the belt ready for use. It sews both backward and forward; it hemstitches and embroiders and all attachments are free. But one of its greatest appeals is the delightful manner in which it is cased. Nothing could be more charming than the beautiful writing cabinet (with the machine iuside). or the adjacent model built for a bedside table. Another attractive style and one which makes a special appeal to the artistic housewife is the dining room cabinet, in oak, or other woods to match any furniture. A demonstration model running under electric power illustrates the sweet, almost silent running of the machine. Full particulars of the machine and the free gift can be obtained at the stalL Another Interesting Line. ile>srs. Tonson Garlick are also showing the newest and mo~t accepted method of upholstering. This is the Lace Webb upholstery and for which Messrs. Tonson Garlick and Co. are the sole makers for the Auckland Province. A very brief inspection is sufficient to convince anyone of the wonderful advancement which this {latent represents. It replaces the old webbings, which were never very satisfactory. The Lace Webb gives an entirely new resilience to furniture; the upholstery fits to the body luxuriously giving perfect rest and comfort, and. being all-metal, the Lace Webb is practically everlasting. The points in favour of this new method of upholstering need no stressing once a model is seen. Its marked superiority accounts for its use in every chair in the new St. James' Theatre. It will also appeal to the householder from the economical point of view, for it costs no more than obsolete webbing style and will outlast the furniture. ,
The exhibit is attracting much attention and a full description of it can be obtained from the company's representative at the stand, shed No. 9.
