SINGER SEWING MACHINES "TTTE have much pleasure in informing W 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 aboA r e before deciding on any other make. We give a few reasons why the Standard should have the preference : — THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Is almost Noiseless. THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Never gets out of Order. THE ;LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD 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 sion 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 j be changed without re- ! moving shuttle from machine. j I THE LIGHT-RUNNING STANDARD Is the easiest Operated. j 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 child can work it, and it can be seen at the agents. SMITH AND BAKKLEY, Mawhera Quay & Mackay St., GREYMOUTH. Commission Agents. C\ W.
