Misoellaneous. .aE¥IN&, MACHINES KZ3 MADE TiY 'JMtE BRITANNIA COMPANY, COLCHESTER, ENGLAND, combine the best parts of the best Machines (avoiding their defects) with some recent special improve ments, which no other Machine possesses. 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 no knowledgo of machines, and has no other guide than the representation of various dealers. Many people convinced of the advantage to be derived from using a Machine for needlework do not yet possess one because among so many they are unable to satisfy themselves as to which make is the best. As a practical man and an Engineer allow me to point out some of the advantages of these Machines. They will do all that any other Machine will, and do it hi:ltor, including Hemming, Quilting, Veiling, Cording, Binding, Braiding, Stitching, <&c;, &c , with a perfect stitch alike on both sides. They are fitted with an improved break, which prevents the Machine turning the wrong way, and so entangling and breaking the thread. They make less noise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. Thoy aro very simple, and will run for years withoiit costing a shilling for repairs. Every Machine is Warranted. Machines let out on hire, the payment for which goes towards the purchase. Machines of other makers taken in ex change. Repairs properly done.
