SMITH AND BARKLEY. Greymouth, October 28 1882. WE have much pleasure in informing the Ladies of Greymouth and district that we have been APPOINTED AGENTS FOR THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD AND HOME COMPANION SEWING 'MACHINES, and trust that all intending purchasers will | call and examine the above before deciding on any other make. We give a few reasons why the Standard should have the : preference : — I THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD | Is almost Noiseless. I THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD ; Never gets out of Order. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD I Lasts a Lifetime. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Is elegant in appearance and finish. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD : Has more points of superiority than ! any other machine in the world. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Has a self-setting needle, which cannot be set wrong. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD •Has an automatic tension, and when regulated rarely needs to be altered and as a rule the whole range of family sewing can be done without change of ten si on whatever. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Has a large space under the arm, affording unusual facilities for doing all kinds of work THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Has a scale for regulating the stitch which enables the operator to readily ascertain the length of stitch without testing, and alter same without stopping the machine". THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Has a spring tension, shuttle, and a bobbin that carries a large amount of thread. The tension may be changed without removing shuttle from ' machine. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD ; Is the easiest Operated. ■ The HOME COMPANION is also a first-class machine (hand or treadle), by the same makers as the Standard, and all who prefer Hand Machines should give this one a trial. It is so simple that a 1 child can work it, and it can be seen at ! the agents. SMITH AND BAKKLEY, i Mawhera Quay & Mackay St., greymouth. j /^ RATEFUL— COMFORTING, j EPPS'S COCOA. BREAKFAST. "By a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of wellselected cocoa, Mr Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately-flavored beverage, which may save us many doctor's bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating around us ready to attack whereever there | is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a properly nourished frame." — See article in the Civil Service Gazette. .
