SEWING- MACHINES MADE BY THE BRITANNIA COMPA NY, COLCHESTER, ENGL\NT>, combine the best parts of the best Machines (avoiding their defects) with some rkckkt special impuovk- MENTS, which no other Machine possesses. Every make of Machine, however far removed from j 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 knowledge 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 tn which make is the best. As a practical man ar.d e.n Engineer allow mo to point out some of the advantages of these Machines. They will do all that any other Machine will, and do it better, including Hemming, Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c, &c., with a perfect stitch alike on both sides. They are fitted with an IMPROVED v.iikak, 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. 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. Repairs properly done.

H E following abstract is talc en -«- from the Custom-house report of the Melbourne Journal, of Commerce, showing the import value of Sewing Machines imported by Victoria during the year 1572 from the two leading Sewing Machine Manufacturers in the world. The Machines imported from makers of less note are not taken into con sideration :—Stan foe d and Co., Agents for the " Singer" Manufacturing Company, -1719 cases, value £24,955 ; Lon<j and Co., Agents for the AVheelor and AVilson Company, 1635 cases, value £8(1-10 ; showing difference in favor of the"!ringer" Machine of 308-1 cases, value £16,300. This extraordinary success of tile "Singer" has been mainly achieved by (he Company':; "New Family" Machine, which is universally acknowledged to be the most simple to learn, the easiest to work, unequalled for strength and beauty of stitch, and the most complete and perfect in mechanism and accessories for every variety of Domestic Sewing and Embroidery.

TTOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT Scorbutic Eruptions, as Sore Heads and Scrofulous Swellings.— lf this powerful Ointment be well rubbey into the parts affected all skin disease will lie specdild overcome. It acts not by repression, but repulsion. It enters the system as salt enters meat, and operates not locally only, but constitutionally purifying the whole system, neutralizing all depraved humours, and effecting a radical and complete cure. The Pills should be taken as an auxiliary to the Ointment, they are so prepared as to act in unison with it, facilitating and confirming the conquest of the disease Vipthcna, UkeratedSore 'Throat and Quinsey. —The above complaints have for twenty years been treated with Holloway's Ointment and Pills with perfect success. The cures have been so remarkable, speedy, and numerous, that these often fatal diseases are more easily cured by these medicines than even the common sore throat, if taken in time. The Kidneys, Stone and Gravel—ln these complaints tho Ointment almost acts like a charm, pro viding it is very effectually rubbed over the regions of tho kidneys, which it will penetrate and give almost immediate relief, while the Pills should be taken accordirrg to the printed directions, when the most extraordinary cures may be effected by this means. Bad Legs, Bad Breasts, Scrofulotis Sores, and Glandular Swellings.—ln such cases the Ointment operates surely and with a rapidity that resembles magic. It should be rubbed into the parts affected after they have, been fomented with lukewarm water. Tho purifying and curative powers of this marvellous unguent have neve rfailed. An old sore, wound, or ulcer always yields to its influence, and in cases of bad breasts, or milk fevers, its action is wonderful. Glandular swclhngs may soon be reduced by following the printed directions. If The Action of the Heart—Dropsy.— The last named uisease is commonly preceded by irregular action of the heart, and difficult respiration ; which symptoms uro always severe, and ever go from bad to worse unless proper means of cure are resorted to. In Holloway's unrivalled Ointment and Pills the dropsical patient will ever find succour ; the present relief derived from the use of these remedies is marvellously quick and perseverance in the steady application of this famous Ointment "invariably results in a_ cure. They act with such energy on the circulation and absorbent system that the dropsical fluid vanishes, and the sufferer finds all the oppressive symptoms daily decline till natural health returns Gout and Rheumatism may be cured with the greatest certainty if large quantities of the Ointment be well worked into the complaining parts, and this persevcrmgly done for some time. It is no use to smear it on the skin only, it must be got into the a /stem lake as many Pills nightly as will act two or three times during the 24 hours; gchew the use ot coffee, and all stimulants. When these complaint! are leaving the system the virulence ot the complaint frequently seems to increase. Indiscretion of Yoth.— Sores, ulcers, and swellings fh^LTuT' cer, t*il\ fc5 r *»° rared if this Ointment lie thoroughly rubbed all round the complaining parts twice or thrice a day, keeping them covered with linen rag spread with the same? The Pills must be taken according to the printed directions. The blood being in an impure state perseverance is necessary.

Reasons AViiy DOWNER'S KEROSENE OIL Should'i be used by Consumers in preference to _ny mne Petroleum Oil. Ist. It is safe, having a lire test of never less than 125" Fahrenheit. 2nd. It is finished by distillation, without treatment i with acids and alkalies as the last process. It is | double di-tillcd for the purpose of removing the acids and ilkilhsnsed in the manufacture of all Petroleum Oils, but which cannot bo removed except by their process, 3rd. The Downer Oil being chemically pure, burns witlr more brilliancy of flame, consuming less oil for a given amount of light. It gives less trouble, because the Lamps require less frequent filling, and the wick 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 consumption of oil. Your grocer may tell you he has on sale an oil in uality 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 i has been adhered to from the beginning, without re [ gard to expense.
