WILLIAMS 4 ORVIS'
CELEBRATED
FAMILY SEWING MACHINES
EQUAL TO THE
BEST MACHINES NOW OFFERED.
WILLIAMS 4 oRvIs'

TINE desideratum, so long sought, of prac.
L teal good double thread Sewing Machine
at low price, has at length been reached. These
are the only cheap Machines which work with
TWO threads, and form really durable and re-
liable stitch.
1t is considered the most simple and effective
yet introduced. 1t forms beautiful, strong and
elastic stitch, and will not rip though every
fourth stitch be cut. For simplicity of con-
struction, ease of motion, strength and durabil-
ity, il is not surpassed. IL will sew the finest
Muslin, Cambrics, Cotton and Wooden Cloth
with equal facility. By its use, the tedious and
laborious work of family sewing is rendered n
pleasure and agreeable pastime.
1t has an under feeder, the same as high priced
machines, which is a very important thing in
doing all kinds of work II makes n seam that
will not rip or ravel, though every fourth stitch
be cut.
1t will hem, stitch, bind, tuck, fell, quilt and
embroider in the most superior manner. The
same Machine, by a mere exchange of spools,
can be adapted TO all kinds of work.
The seam is Us elastic as the most elastic fab
rc so that il is free from all liability to break in
washing, ironing or wear. IL runs rapidly and
makes the l. asst noise, and takes the Double Lock
Stitch, same as Grover & Bakers Machine.
To new operator il is the most easy to learn
as il runs either way, and can be learned in thir-
ty minutes. 1t is the most simply constructed,
easily learned, and less liable to arrangement.
We invite all who are in pursuit Of an excel
lent machine, to examine this by all means
Samples of work sent by mail when requested.
Machines sent TO persons who never saw them
are operated upon successfully after few hours
practice. Full printed instructions given with
each machine, and personal instruction to all
within reach. H

TT has gained its widespread popularity, and
l. its innumerable sales throughout the world,
from the following facts, which over $4,000 fam
lilies in the United States alone, who use them,
are ready to endorse:
1. 1t makes the only seam formed by Sew
ing Machine, in which each stitch is indepen-
IDENTIFY locked, and without dependence upon the
other stitches for strength. t.t
2. 1t makes the only seam that will admit of
the thread being cut at every fourth stitch, with
out injury to the seam in wear.
8. tits unnecessary to fasten the ends of seams
made by this machine. This is doneby the ma
chine itself, without the use Of the hand needle.
4. The Grover 4 Baker stitch is the only one
formed from two ordinary spools, and without
winding from the spool into shuttle from three
to five times, for the under thread.
5. A seam thus formed is more elastic than
any other made by a sewing machine, and is
consequently very valuable in all goods that are
to be washed and stretched under the iron.
6. The machine is adapted to all varieties Of
fabrics, serving each equally well, and requiring
no adjustment for any kind of sewing, other
than the adaptation Of needles and thread.
7. 1t is more easily kept in order than any 9TH
or machine, and need not be taken apart to be
oiled.
s. The machine sews common spool cotton
silk and linen thread with equal facility
Q. The machine is so simple that an intelli-
gent child of ten years can readily learn to ope-
rate and keep il in order.
10. By reason of its simplicity of construction
and ease of management, it is best adapted ID
all the wants of the family.

The public, in their eagerness TO supply them
selves with sewing machines making the Gro
yer & Baker stitch, must not forget to purchase
them of the parties who alone are authorized to
sell them. All purchasers and users of fraudu-
lent machines of this class will be visited with
certain prosecution. Those who have already
been induced to buy these fraudulent machines
can purchase license for their use, before pros
ecution, on proper application. All machines
sewing from two spools, and in which only one
needle penetrates the cloth, and having feed
which allows the material TO be turned at will
are infringements. GROVER 4 BAKER S.M.Co.

NOTHING TO DO.

Miss Molina McMoran was hearty and hale,
Yet wished TO be slender and languid and pale,
So defrauded her stomach Of what was its due,
And cheated her muscles Of exercise too.
She dipped in the goblet her fingers so rare,
And wiped their tip ends with delicate air
Then crossed her white hands on her hoop-be-
spread lap,
Too inert TO converse, and too vain for nap;
For still twas her aim 10 attracting the view,
To convince all beholders she'd nothing 10 do.
Miss julia de Scamper was agile and bright,
Her step like the queen Of the fairies was light;
So, her feet for the sloth other hands made a.
mends,
And she took for her calling to call on her
friends
At oil seasons and times she saluted their view,
Though they might be busy, she'd nothing 10 do,
But plenty Of small talk around her to fling,
SO she babbed away like brooklet IN spring,
Hanging up slain hour as she went from the
door,
Alasl for such trophies when time is no more.
Miss Celestia Fitz MackeFel would dawdle all
day
Over crochet and worstsd, or novel and play;
She sorted her shades with ON accurate eye,
Bot let her poor mothers wan features go by;
Who. worn half to death with her family care,
Found nothing like help from her daughter and
heir.
The getting OF dinners, the toll and the stir
or such vulgar pursuits. were disgusting to herr
And thus TO her nondescript creed she was true
The mother might all, but she'd nothing to do
O, young men, my masters, who dream with de-
light
OF home of your own, which no discord can
blight,
Where the roses Of Eden, from fading exempt
And an Eve whom no contraband apple can
tempt,
Where the wheels OF good order like clock-worl,
shall move,
And babies we'll trained bring On ocean ofloye
Where prudence with smiles Of endearment shall
glow,
And wealth hand in hand with economy grow
I'd faiu sound a trumpet and bid you beware
