IMPROVED TIGHT-STITCH SEWING
MACHINES.

4 .tep Of the many reasons irhy these Seping
Machines are preferred abore all others.
l. They are remarkably simple in their con-
struction. A child can operate them, and
understand the mechanism.
2. They are the strongest Sewing Machine
made. 1t is almost impossible to break or get
them out of order.
8. They are sure in their operation; finishing
the work in uniformly perfect manner.
4. They make tight loek-shtch alike on both
sides of the work, which cannot be unrapelled
g. They stitch, hem, bind, fell, run, and gather,
toithout bdsting.
g. They sew equally well the Eghte,t and the
hedri.st fabrics.
I. They sew over the heariest seams without
changing the tension or breaking the finest
thread.
8. They use any No., of Cotton, Thread, or
Silk, directly from the spool.
g. They use a straight needle; curved ones
are liable to break.
10. The needle has a perpendicular motion.
This is absolutely necessary for heavy work
IL. They have a pheel feed; none others are
in constant contact with the work.
IL. They run easily and almost noiseless.
Is. They are not liable to oil the dress of the
operator.
a. They do not require screw driver to set
the needle.
10. They do not have to be taken apart to oil
or clean.
Is. They do not form ridges on the under side
OF the work, nor ravel out, nor are they waste
full of thread, as is the case with all cham-sGtch
machines.
II. They are capable of doing greater range
Of work, and In more perfect manner, than any
other Sewing Machine, as is proved by the result
of our challenge for trial, which has never been
accepted.
