A Patented device OF great utility to

Another feature which deserves partcu-
[ lar attention is u THE WfICOX PATENT
NEEDLE CANNOT BE SET WRONG.
Two thousand Stitches, or two Yards of
work, can be done ia one minute without
dropping a stitch.
These MachIaes, so simple and accruate
in theifconsIrnciion, supersede the use of
the shuttle; and with one thread produce
all the practical results of the two thread
machines; ard more, for these fell without
bastlng, and hem the finest muslin without
puckering.
Although at about half the price Of the
oiher hrsi class machines, they will accom-
plish double the sewing IN given time.
