Things You Don’t see in a Sewing Machine Don’t judge any sewing machine just by the way it looks. Enamel paint and shiny varnish are good things, but they don’t make a machine run well or last long. Experience and judgment and intent, combined with manufacturing facilities, are the things you should consider before buying. These points, combined with a rigid system of inspection and tests, give a lasting value to every Singer Sewing Machine. You can’t see them, but you learn tnem to the easy, effective working of every part—and their value becomes more plain to you after years of service. Every Singer is perfect when it leaves the factory—your daughter will say it’s still perfect when you have no more use for it. We also sell the Wheeler & Wilson. August F.

If any other so-called cure gives you any relief it will either knock your stomach out, hurt your heart or enslave you by its opiates. Rheumaline is an honest medicine. It is made with the steadfast and fixed purpose of curing rheu-
