BROWN.'. jano-4t The Howe Sewing Machine v This Famous Journal, which enters upon its twenty-second year oh the 7th of Jan., 1871, is not only the Largest, Best and Cheapest, hut by_ far the largest-circulating Journal of its class, in the .world, National in Character, Ably Edited, Su perbly Illustrated and Printed, it is the BEST AMERICAN WEEKLY. . The Rural Kew-Tdrker has become - the standard authority on all branches of Agriculture, Horticul ture, etc., throughout Ihe-Union, and is invaluable to city, village and suburban cultivators. As a literary and Family Paper it is a favorite inmany of the best families all.over the Continent. The great enlargement of the Rural last year has. rendered it necessary, for convenience of ~hn.nrHing and reading when bound, to publish TWO VOLUMES A TEAR! Commencing January and July. Each of the semi annual volumes contains as much Reading and more aud better Illustrations, than fae - formerly gave in a whole year!—and donble what most of the eight page weeklies of the same class furnish. ITS ILLUSTRATIONS Are numerous, beautiful and varied. Indeed the Rural lias no rival in its sphere—is unequalled as -an illustrated Rural aud Family Newspaper. Though double its former size—now containing sixteen large pages of five columns each, weekly— the Rural is- still furnished at its former price. Its Market and Crop Reports Are' full aud reliable. Remember that it is not a monthly, but the; largest, cheapest and best illus trated weekly,—and . that it comprises in due a greater variety of Reading, Choice Engravings, &c„ than is given in half a dozen ordinary papers. £5T Next to your local paper, Moore’s is the one for yourself, family.and friends. Excelled by none, makmg a perfect stitch alikeon both sides. It can BRAID; HEM, - TUCK and CORD, in ,tne most elegant manner. It will pass over seams with-the greatest ease; sews, equally well on the coarsest and the finest fabrics, sewing Swiss without gathering the goods. Come and test its merits. For sale by MRS. & L.
