II that no other one combines GO many prime quail
tics for general use ns that made by tho WHEELER

scrbcrs have taken an agency for the sale Of these
n comparable Machines. Tho price Of n Machine

rcctly of the manufacturers or ut any one of their

manship and ready for use. To all purchasers Of
us Practical instructions in the use of tho ma
chimes will be given pifhom charge so that tho
luyer may thoroughly understand tho principle Of
the mnchine-whnt every part Of it docs-and how
the whole may be kept in perfect working order
with reasonable care and skill.
We specify some Of the chief points Of excellence
belonging to these machines
]. Perfection If Stitch. No stronger stitch il
made by hand-sowinr. II cannot rip any moro
than the common back stitch Of the seamstrcss, and
takes onethrd los thread to stitch than that docs
Tho stitch (fnc or coarse at the pleasure of the
scwor) is absolutely uniform, and is precisely the
same on both sides Of the scam. This last quality
is OF signal advantage, sometimes, in making n
garment, because some parts are moro easily han
died in the making, by n change Of side.
2. Rapidhy NJ Erecmion. The saving of time
by its use is hardly credible by one who has not
seen 1t in operation good sewer will easily take
from thousand to twelve hundred stitches in n
minute with it, The finest work docs not tax the
eyes rs the coarscst work by hand does
:. Stiffness md Edse NJ Notion. The stiffness
of its motion is surprising. A sleeping infant
would not be disturbed by in active work Mt its
idc. dozen Of them going in small room would
be no bar to free conversation. No sowing machine
is made or can be made to move with less noise or
less effort.
4. Ease If Adiutment, and Durability. From
the peculiar principle of the machine tho fcwness
of its parts, md the perfection Of its workmanship,
the adjustments exceedingly simple and easy. 1t
is kept in working order with great case, and with
good care we believe ono will last an ordinary life
time in family
