This is due to their thoroughly soioutilio construction, accurate fitting, easy uotion and great strougth and also tbe superior quality of r.jotal used iu them, which makes the "Standard" more durable than any other machine. Every part is accurately made aud interchangeable and can be replaced, if necessary, at auy time, which means the "Standard" machiuo will last forever; there is no woar out to it. Each ruaobine is given a practical sowiug teat, and is proporly adjusted by experienced op erators before leaving the factory. The maohiue is thou ready for imme diate use, and our complete Book of Instructions tolls the purchaser bow all kinds of up-to-date sewing can bo perfectly and quickly done on the "Standard." The "Standard" is not a cheap ruaobine, neither iu quality or price. It is made especially for those who demand tbe highest quality from the very best materials obtainable. No machine is cheap that is not durable; to the cost of repairs on an inferior machine will soon double the original prioo, not counting the wear aud tear ou nerves and patience; and uiuiachiuo is durable unless planned upon correct nieobanioal principles, and made of the very best materials, fitted and furuishod by competent workmen.
