W. F. WILDER & CO., AGENTS OF SINGER SEWING MACHINES, FOR
Berkshire County. Office at ATKINS & STEDMAN'S, NORTH ADAMS, MASS.
SONG OF THE SINGER.
In these times of delusion, when men won't abstain From " ways that are dark, and tricks that are vain," How diverse the opinions to which men incline, How few from beginnings the end can divine, Some seek to be modest, some choose to be gay, Some blow for Hunter and some for Mckay, But one thing is granted and all must concede That the " Singer " Machine is monarch indeed.
To those who have tried it I need not explain And thousands there are who its merits maintain ; Look well to your interests 'twill do you no harm, For like Renne's Specific " it works like a charm ;" It hems, and it ruffles, it tucks and it fells, It embroiders and fringes for fastidious young belles. In the heaviest of beavers, and the finest of lace, Its rivals are distanced every heat in the race.
Its sales are enormous, a million and more Make merry the hearts so cheerless before ; Across the Atlantic, beyond the Gulf Stream, On the far Western prairies, though strange it may seem, It is hailed as the champion the wide world around, And with laurels the brightest, it is everywhere crowned. To limit circulation and choke down its praise, You must chain up your lightning and suppress your railways.
'Tis an age of invention, men's brains are on fire And science is reaching for a foothold yet higher, We have horse-rakes and mowers that are A No. one We have reapers and threshers that can't be outdone. You farmers must have them to save labor you say, And 'tis right that you should, but one thing I pray, That while your own wants are so plain to be seen, Don't forget that your wife wants a Sewing Machine.
Are you doubting and waiting, and fear to invest The sixty-five dollars without any test ? You can have one on trial a fortnight or so, And if you don't like it we'd have you to know, We'll take it away without oath or complaint, And charge not a dime, be you devil or saint. What more can you ask, or what more can we do ? Is a question that now is submitted to you.
Is the amount so prodigious, and the times so severe, That the way to obtain it you cannot see clear ? How the clouds break away when you once understand That five dollars per month is all we demand. O. fathers who have children, and husbands who have wives Whose presence makes cheerful each day of your lives. They've work in abundance 'tis plain to be seen, Besides making your shirts with no Sewing Machine.
Then away with excuses and a few dollars invest In a Sewing Machine that shrinks from no test, In the home of the rich they're an ornament indeed, In the cot of the poor how pressing the need. Would you evince your love for the one you adore, Go at once to our office in the Crockery Store, . The agent is Wilder, and his champion Machine At 2 Martin's Block, may always be seen.
