Sole Agents in Auckland: JOHN ROBERT ON & C 0., DUEH AM S T E.E ET. ■noWKBB'B KEROSENE, 3s. Cd. PER GALLON. DEVOE'S KEROSENE, 3s. PER GALLON. Delivered in any Part of the City. Reasons Why DOWNER'S KEROSENE OIL Should be used by Consumers in preference to any other Petroleum Oil. Ist. It is safe, having a fire test of never less than 125° Fahrenheit. 2nd. It is finished by distillation, without treatment with acids and alkalies as the last process. It is double distilled for the purpose of removing the acids and alkalies used in the manufacture of all Petroleum Oils, but which cannot be removed except by their process, 3rd. The Downer Oil being chemically pure, burns with more brilliancy of flame, consuming less oil fora given amount of light. It less trouble, because the Lamps require less frequent filling, and the wic less frequent trimming. 4th. Although the Downer Oil costs more per gallon than other oils, it is, in the end, cheaper for the con sumer, because it gives a greater amount of light with less consumption of oil. Your grocer may toll you he has on sale an oil in quality equal to Downer Oil. Don't believe this story. Downer Oil is quoted and known all over the world as the highest standard brand. This reputation has been achieved by its having been made by a better process and more costly than others, which process has been adhered to from the beginning, without re gard to expense. 8S- N.B.- DOWNER'SK E R O S E N E IH THE ONLY BRAND That will givo entire satisfaction in the Anucapnic Lamp.

Every make of Machine, however far removed from excellence, professes to be better than any other The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefore rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser has 1 no knowledge of machines, and has no other guide i than the representation of various dealers Many peop'e convinced of the advantage to be derived from using a Machine for needlework do not 3*et possess one because among so many they are unable to satisfy themselves as to which make is the best. Asa practical man and an Engineer allow me to point out fome of the advantages of these Machines. They will do all that any other Machine will, and do U better, including Hemming, Quilting, H'elllng, Cording. Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c, <tc . with a perfect stitch alike on both Bides. They are fitted with an IMPROVED iikkak, which prevents the Machine turning the wrong way, and so entangling and breaking the thrend. They make less Jioise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. They are very simple, and will run for years without costing a shilling for repairs. Every Machine is Warranted. Machines lot out on hire, the payment for which goes towards the purchase. Machines of other makers taken in ex change.
