LADIES, TAKE NOTE OF THIS :— Two important points should not be lost sight of in selecting a Sewing Machine, First: Be not misled by long and extravagant puffs-in the papers about Machines which are frequently made only to sell, and more frequently sold by those who, from their want of mechanical know ledge, can only parrot-like repeat the puff. 2nd: Beware of purchasing a Sewing Machine because it happens to be a few shillings cheaper, arid have afterwards to pay dearly for it in worry■ delay, and vexation. The undersigned, fromhis intimate knowledge Of Sewin<? Mechanism, can onfldently recommend Taylor's Patent Sewing Machine as a really good; genuine, and well tested Machine.

Extraordinary Cure of an Auckland Omnibus Driver, 21 years resident, op Long-standing Rheumatism. Auckland, August 20,1878. Dear Sir, —I had suffered severely and most acutely from Rheumatism for many years, brought on, I believe, from exposure to all weathers in the exercise of my calling. For years I could not sleep at night, and was unable to lie except in one position. Day and night I was full of excruciating pains, scarcely able to move about at all, and as a natural sequence my general health was also materially iniured I believe I suffered the pangs of Rheumatism and its attendant evils, in every shape and form and my life was almost a burden to me- I trie every remedy I could hear of, but without ob taining any relief whatever. The cum I Bpent in medicine and medical advice waa very con siderable, but of no avail, until I invested in a bottle of your Blood Restorer. I [may say that I was not hopeful at all when I pur chased your medicine, I had tried so many specifics without receiving the slighest benefit, ut having determined to give it a fair trial, I carried out my intention. I adhered strictly to the directions, and the result is that I am changed from a mere wreck to my former self again—restored to health and vigour, and able to drive daily through all weathers, and at all hours, if occasion requires. I am sure you have never had a worse case to deal with than mine, and although even now, in bad weather, I feel my limbs rather stiff, after sitting on the box for a leng time, I am a living example of the almost miraculous curative properties (under Providence) of your now celebrated Blood Restorer. My friends tell me it is a duty I owe to my fellow creatures to send you this acknowledgement, and if it is the means of persuading other sufferers to go and do likewise, I shall feel that this letter Is not written in vain. I have the more pleasure in giving this testimonial as it is quite un solicited on your part. You are at liberty, of course, to make any use of this.—l am, sir, yours gratefully, Henry Maiden. To H.
