Did you ever see a sewing machine with Only Six
Working Parts? If not you never saw this new ma
chine.
The old method of feeding from below is entirely
done away, and all the complicated machinery con
nected therewith taken out and dispensed with. No
Machinery Underneath to clean or oil.
This New Feed method doee not Stop at seems,
but Steps evenly over them.
There is Only One Tension to regulate. No holes
to thread through.
It is a Mechanical Wonder, yet no more interest
ing for what It Is, than what it will do.
It is the only machine having Steel Roll Bearings
for its needle bar.
The only machine having a Support for the Needle

This “ New Davis ” is as far ahead of the old ma
chines as the Telephone is ahead of the speaking
tube.

Among a few notes on Baltimore socie

Jane Kilrain will take his family into the

asserted that this prominent Baltimorean

King Humbert ot Italy has not re
covered from the effects of his visit to
the German capital. His digestive ap
paratus has been for a long time in a
delicate condition, and the hospitality of
Emperor William gave it a disastrous
strain. The result is that Humbert has
to confine his diet to milk and fruit, and
is allowed to smoke only ten cigarettes a

The Maharajah oi Singpore, who is
now in Paris, is astonishing even that
blane city. His coaches, attendants, cos
tumes and exjienditure are based on
such a scale of elegance that he seems to
have the wealth of the East at his dis
posal. He far outshines the Shah of
Persia, who has not impressed Europe
with his elegance this trip. The Indian
potentate of Singpore has never been on
the Continent before and he seems to
like Paris so well that his stay bids fair
to be a long one. Parisian tradesmen
sincerely hope that the affairs of Sing
pore will not soon recall him to his na
tive land.
Ex-President Cleveland is («cufiar as
a fisherman. Not only does he possess
both ¡»atience and luck, but ho has
gained remarkable skill in manipulating
a rod and line. But the strange feature
of his piscatorial pursuits lies in the fact
that lie is superstitious. He never j«r-
mits bis left hand to rest in front ot his
right on the rod. Furthermore, he never
expects to catch fish if lie has seen the
new moon over his left shoulder the

never began an im|>ortant message or
speech on Friday.
John Wanaraaker, of Philadelphia,

general of the United States, carries
mortgages on his proi>erty to the amount
of $1,477,500. At first sight it would
look as though Mr. Wanamaker was
pegging along under a very heavy bur
den. It is estimated, however, that the
sales at his Philadelphia store reach
$20,000,000 annually, and that he makes
a net profit of $2,000,000 a year Atom
