These Machines sew from two spools, as pur-
chased from the store. requiring no reminding of
thread; they Hem, Fell. Gather. and Stitch in a
superior STYLE finishing each seam by their own
operation, without recourse to the hand-needle,
as is required b. other machines. They will do
better and cheaper sewing than ia seamstress can,
even if she work for one cent an hour. and are,
unquestionably. the best KlrcAines in the market
for family sewing, on account OF their simplicity,
durability, ease of management and adaptation
to all varieties Of family sewing-executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility,
and without special adjustment.
As evidence of the unquestioned superiority
of their Machines, the GROVER BAKER SEW

ly refer to the following
