FAMILY SEWING MACHINE
Now in use irrespective of Price.

Now in use irrespective of Price.
We ask attention to the following points of
excellence in WEST a Wilson's Machine.
LIST. Its simplicity, and the directness with
which the power is communicated to the needles.
This is a great desideratum andin this we claim
n decided superiority over all other machines
I'd The needle and needle bar are both
straight and the motion direct the needle bar
is attached to n small wheel driven by larger
one instead of to the long arm of lever, as in
most machines, with power upon the short one
The latter arrangement necessarily makes the
motion of the needle both circular and weak,
while the former gives strength and directness.
Sd. The great power and directness of the
motion enables us to sew all fabrics, from gauze
to four thioknesses of leather, with almost equal
case, and the Machine can be made 10 run,
without changing needle or thread, through all
the different thicknesses, from sheet Of paper
TO heavy leather, and back and forth without
dropping stitch or breaking thread. We
know of no other family machine of equal ca
pacity.
4th. 1t uses silk, cotton or linen thread from
the original spools; unlike most machines, it
will permit the seam to DO turned at right an
giles at its highest speed; it has much more room
than any other family machine for passing goods
through, thus allowing to pass freely the heavi-
est garments, bed-quilts, &c. and it will turn up
readily upon hinges attached to the stand, tho
this is seldom necessary, as both tensions are
regulated from above.
5th. The Machine will do a greater variety
of work than can be done by any other stitch,
1t will HEM, QUILT, GATHER, EMBR0ID-
Err and CORD, and will do neatly and rapid
ly every variety of sewing that can be done by
a similar stitch upon the highest priced machine
No machine will make and put upon garments
the finishing cord as neatly as ours.
Send for circular containingfull particulars,
prices, testimonials, illustrations of stitch, &c.
Machines warrantedan full directions given
for using, without charge.
Orders for machines and circulars will receive
prompt attention, by addressing
