The defendant pleaded the general issue, and also a special plea. In the special plea he alleged: That as a part of the same transaction in which the defendant executed the order and the promissory note sued on, and also as a part of the inducement therefor, the said plaintiff, White Sewing Machine Company, by and through its several officers, agents, and employees, on or about the 12th day of March, 1925, entered into a certain contract and agreement with this defendant by which it was represented and agreed by the plaintiff! that the said plaintiff, White Sewing Machine Company, in order to introduce its machines in the city of Natchez, Mississippi, would put on and conduct at the defendant’s place of business in Natchez, Mississippi, an intensive demonstration and sales campaign of the machines of the plaintiff; that the defendant should order twelve sewing machines of and from the plaintiff in accordance with the order filed as an exhibit to the plaintiff’s declaration and that said machines would be delivered by the plaintiff to the defendant according to the terms of the order, and that the plaintiff’s representative, J. H. Ware, would personally conduct, with the assistants to be furnished by the White Sewing Machine Company, a demonstration and sales campaign as soon as certain machines to- be ordered as aforesaid by the defendant were received; that the said J. H. Ware was a competent, experienced, and expert demonstration and sales campaign manager; and that it was represented that the defendant was to do nothing except distribute certain advertising matter and furnish the place for the conduction of the sale; that the entire demonstration and sales campaign would be handled by the said Ware and assistants to be furnished by the plaintiff; that the machines were to be sold by the plaintiff tq the custom and trade in Natchez, Mississippi, at and according to list price named and mentioned in the order filed as an exhibit to the plaintiff’s declaration, which amounts were double the wholesale price of cost of said machines, and that the defendant .would receive the entire benefit.of said sales to be conducted as contracted and agreed, less certain incidental expenses to be incurred for advertising said campaign; that the said machines were to be sold to customers upon terms of a certain percentage to' be paid in cash and the balance to1 belaid in monthly installments, and that all sales contracts were to- be turned over and delivered to the defendant to be his property; that all sales of machines during the campaign should be absolute and bonafide sales by which the purchasers would be bound and obligated to pay the said Perrault the purchase price thereof; and that the defendant should have no- part in the conduct of said sales campaign except to pass upon the credit standing of prospective purchasers of said machines.

It was further alleged that in pursuance of said agreement plaintiff shipped the defendant the said twelve machines and that thereafter on March 21st, said twelve machines together withi one No. 60 Rotary Machine Free for advertising, and other materials for advertising, were recéived; and that the plaintiff pretended' on its part to carry out its contract and agreement for the conduct of the demonstration and sales campaign as it had agreed to do, but breached the terms and violated the contract in divers and sundry manners. It was then set forth that one Dickson jwas sent to conduct the sales campaign, accompanied by his wife to act as a demonstrator of the machines, and that after the said Dickson arrived he began to make excuses, claiming he had engagements elsewhere and could not conduct the said sales campaign, and that the company sent another man by the name of Evans to conduct the said demonstration, and that defendant was induced to enter into certain stipulations by which a commission would be paid to Evans for his services; that the defendant saw that, unless he did make such an arrangement, it would mean a failure of the sales campaign. He then alleged that the said -Evans, instead of making /direct and binding sales to the purchaser, executed contracts by which said sales were rented to the purchaser with an option of purchase, which did not bind the person taking the machines to pay for them, but only to pay the stipulated rent, and that the machines were used under these lease contracts by the parties with whom they were placed, so that they became secondhand machines and could not be sold as new machines, and could not be sold at the price stipulated in the order as retail prices, and that many of them were, in fact, practically worthless.

This special plea was demurred to, and the demurrer sustained. The defendant thereupon filed notice under the general issue, which set up substantially the same matter set forth in the plea. The defendant offered to prove the matter set forth in the notice under the general issue, this was objected to, and objection sustained, and a motion for a directed verdict was sustained and judgment entered for the plaintiff, for the amount of the note, interest, and attorney’s fees.

From this judgment this appeal is prosecuted, and it is urged by the appellant that there were two separate individual contracts, and that plaintiff should! be allowed to recover his damages incurred through the matter set up in the notice under the general issue. It was also contended that the verbal representations were an in ducement to purchasers of machines, and that the plaintiff relied upon the representations that the company would conduct the sales and dispose of the machines for his benefit as therein set forth. It will be noticed from the order, set out above, that1 the order contained a provision :

“It is agreed that if the undersigned fails or neglects to settle any invoice by note, trade acceptance or cash, according to the terms thereof, within thirty days after maturity, or to pay any note or trade acceptance given according to its terms, then that the whole amount owing the White Sewing Machine Company shall at once become due and payable without discount. This order is given subject to the approval of the White Sewing Machine Company, and if accepted and filled in full or in part, to be settled for at the price and terms above set forth. There is no understanding or agreement of any nature whatsoever between your Company and' the undersigned as to these machines except such as is embraced in this written order which contains all of the terms and conditions upon which the same is given.

“[Signed] F. J. Perrault.”

It is well settled by numerous decisions of this court that where a contract is sent to a dealer for approval, containing such a statement, that verbal understandings not embraced in the contract cannot be shown to defeat the effect of the signed! instrument. It is a familiar rule of law that a contract reduced to writing, not ambiguous upon its face, is the exclusive agreement of the parties, and that all verbal representations and negotiations antedating the signing of the contract are merged therein, and cannot be proven to vary or contradict the meaning of the instrument as written.

We are of the opinion that this case is controlled by J. B. Colt Co. v. Odom, 136 Miss. 651, 101 So. 853; Brenard Manufacturing Company v. Sumrall, 139 Miss. 507, 104 So. 160 ; J. B. Colt Co. v. Hinton, 143 Miss. 800, 109 So. 856; Jourdan v. Albritton, 146 Miss. 651, 111 So. 591; Edrington v. Stephens, 148 Miss. 583, 114 So. 387; Stevens v. Stanley, 153 Miss. 801, 121 So. 814; J. R. Watkins Co. v. Poag, 154 Miss. 222, 122 So. 473; Tropical Paint & Oil Co. v. Mangum & Hatcher (Miss.), 125 So. 248. .

The judgment of the court below will,, therefore, be affirmed'.

Affirmed.
