04 04       A New Invention

Moore’s Family Sewing Machine.  The best and cheapest in use.  This machine is constructed upon a simple and durable plan.  Since we have used it this winter in our shop we can recommend it as superior to any other machine we know.  It makes the strongest and most elastic and durable stitch of any machine yet made.  It has the best and most reliable feed ever constructed and does not break needles.  It sews from two common spools, without re-winding.  It can be understood and operated perfectly with very little instruction.  In beauty of design and perfect mechanism it cannot be excelled. 

 

Please call and examine the machine and its work at the store of Fischer & Rohr, Agents, Watertown.   WD
