There is no field of labor that offers greater re¬ 
muneration than the sale of the Family Knitting 
Machine, and there is no machine that possesses 
one-half t he qua lit,lies which are so absolutely 
necessary for family use as tbe 
Bickford’s Improved. 
Its simplicit y and ease Of ronnngement, together 
with it' capacity fordoing Die great range of work, 
and its trilling cost, make* it a matterof economy 
for every family to have one, and will ultimately 
bring It into as general use a* the Sewing Machine. 
The practical utility of the machine only needs to 
be demonstrated to the people to produce an un¬ 
limited demand. . 
Many Sewing Machine Agents, finding the in- 
rrense of competition and the difficulty of selling 
high-priced machines to militate against a flour¬ 
ishing business, are Diking bold of the
