l. 1t makes the only scam formed by a Sew
ing Machine, in which each stitch is ndepen-
IDENTIFY locked, and without dependence upon the
other stitches for strength.
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.
3. It's 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 Baker stitch is the only one
formed from two ordinary spools, and without
winding from the spool into a shuttle from three
to five times, for the under thread
3. seam thus formed is more elastic than
any other made by 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.
Z. 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.
8. The machine is so simple that an inteli-
gent child of ten years can readily learn to ope-
rate and keep it in order.
10. BY reason of itssimplcity of construction
and case of management, it is best adapted to
all the wants of the family.

FAMILY SEWING MACHINE
Now in uso irrespective Of Price.

Now in use irrespective Of Price.
We ask attention to the following points of
excellence in WEST WILLsoN's Machine.
1st It's simplicity, and the directness with
which the power is communicated to the needles
This is a great dosideratum andin this we claim
q decided superiority over all other machines.
I'd. The needle and noodle 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 a 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.
3D. The great power and directness Of the
motion enables us to sew all fabrics, from gauZo
to four thicknesses of leather, with almost equal
case, and the Machine can be made TO run,
without changing needle or thread, through all
the different thicknesses, from a sheet Of paper
to heavy leather, and back and forth without
dropping stitch or breaking n 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 be turned mt right an
giles at its highest speed; ithas 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 win turn up
readily upon hinges attached to the stand, tho
this is seldom necessary, as both tensions arc
regulated from above.
9Th. The Machine will do a greater variety
of work than can be done by any other stitch.
1t will HEM, QUILT, GATHER, EMBROID-
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 a circular containingful particulars,
prices, testimonials, illustrations of stitch, &c.
Machines warrantedand full directions given,
for using without charge.
Orders for machines and circulars will receive
prompt attention, by addressing
