I3y~ Note the Address:— VI CT 0 B,IA - STREET WEST, 4 doors from HobKon-Btreet. HATE SPECIAL CLAIMS to pub lic attention, as a very superior and valuable assistant in household industry. That ihia Machine ims made thousands of friends who attest its superiority over everything else cannot be doubted ; and it is claimed thut it is only necessary to reason upon its peculiarities to enable any person to appre ciate its advantages in tho family over every other one in use. What these advantages arc claimed to be wo propose brielly to ttate, that a comparison may be drawn between the Grover and Baker1 and other Machines— 1, It makes the only seam formed by a Sewing Machine in which each stitch is independently locked, and without dependence upon the othar stitches for strength, and the only seam that will admit of the thread being cut at every fourth stitch without injury to the s Rin in we.ir. It is unnecessary to fasten off the ends of scams, tills being done bi tho. Machine itself without tho use of the hand needle. 2, The Grover and I! »kcr stitch is the only one f irrncdfroin two ordinary reels, and without winding from the reel Into a shuttle f om three to live times for the UDder thread. A scam thus formed is more elastic than any other made by a P.evAwj Machine and is co?i sequoitly very valuable in all uoods that are. to be washed and stretched under the iron, 8. she Machine Is adapted to all varieties of fabrics, sewing each equally well, and require no adjustment for any kind of sowing othe than the adaption of needles and thread, and by reason of its simplicity of construction and easa of management it is best adapted to all the wants of a family. The Lock or Shuttle Stitch Machines manufactured by Grover and Baker, making the seam alike on both sides of the fabric, needs little comment, and parties desiring to invest, are respedtfuily requested to make enquiries of those who have them in use, as to their superior merits' over any other Locfc Stitch Machine made. Needles, Parts, Cotton, Silk, <Dc, always on hand. The following testimonials are published as samples of the many we are constantly receiving from all paxts of the world, and we purpose replacing them fre quently by others, so that the public may form an idea of the Grovor and Biker's S.M. Co's Machines, by those who have them in uae. " 130, and 53?, Queen street' •' Auckland, 17th March, 1876.

AN OLD STORY KE-MOBAL'D. Two men a journey had to go (The one was Jim, the other Joe), The distance two score miles and ten, And fifty long miles back again. Away they sped with right good will. Through bush and brake, o'er plain and hill, But very soon the one call'd Joe Declared he could no further go. Jim's hurry would not brook delay, So like a Bhot ha sped away; His journey and his business o'er, He took the road for home once more. When half way back he met poor Joe, Walking along but very slow, Who when he saw that it was Jim, With rueful face thus question'd him: " Pray tell me friend how it enn be, That you can walk so l'sfht and free, While I, with blisters on each toe, Have five-and-twenty miles to go ?" Quoth Jim, " The secret you shall know How I with ease and comfort go, Dame Nature's gifts I don't abuse, And Hemus always makes my shoes. We forget whether Jim wore a pair of ov.v lien's Elastic Sides cr Balmoral Boots at 12s 6d, but they both go well. His wife has kept up to him for years, and she wears our own make Kid Elastic Sides at 10s 6d. HEMUS'S STAR BOOT WAREHOUSE, Market Corner, Queen-street.
