opened permanent Office. : chicago, No. l0a

peet tie business Of the Chicago Office will be
done on the same terms as at the parent

late improvements, is already in the Chicago
office, and all orders for Machines and Sewing
Machine Findings will he promptly filed
TO parties little acquainted with the Finkle
Lyon Sewing, Machines tho careful perusal
ofthe Company's Circular is specially COM
manded This circular can be had on appli.
cation. II is very recifc, and will be found
highly instructive, having been prepared with
much care, and we will abide by oil state
menis therein made.
The following brief quotation is charact.
eristic of The entire Circular
"This Machine is better adapted than any
other Sewing Machine in market to the fire.
quent changes and almost endless variety Of
sewing required in n family; for it will sew
from one to twenty thicknesses of Marseilles
with out stopping, and make every stitch per-
feet. Will sew from the finest gauze 10 the
heaviest cloth, ani even the stoutest harness
leather, without changing the feed, needle or
tension, or making any adjustment Of ma
chine whatever
Thus have we successfully overcome the
most difficult point in the Sewing Machine
art. 1t was no orliaary triumph. Defantly
can we now say, "No other Machine compares
with it in this respect Hence, have we un-
iformly-almost without exception-taken
the highest premium, whenever the Machine
has been properly exhibited in competition
with other frst-class Sewing Machines.
Hence is it that we are able to offer the fol-
lowing guarantee, viz, I'VE Warrant every
Machine we sell to give BETTER satisfaction
than any other Sewing Machine in market,
or money refunded" W, never sell Machine
on any other terms. The guarantee il rs re-
liable as the note Of any BUSINESS man in the
land. For more than five years have we re.
lied upon such facts for the reputation of our
Machine; aud withouta siugle travelling
agent in the field, there is scarcely neigh
bourhood on the continent where the Machine
is not favorably known. We prefer such
reputation to one based on more "talking
points" as they are technically callel in the
trade. Hence we make but one kind of stitch,
viz, the )ock-stitch alike on beth sides, re-
quring only ene-third the thread of other
kinds of stitches.

ARE rue BEST in MARKET :

l. II makes the only seam formed by a
Sewing machine in which the stitch is indie.
pendentiy locked, and without de pendence
upon the other stitches for strength.
Q. Il makes the only seam that will admit
of the thread being cut at every fourth stitch
without injury TO the seam in wear.
3. 1t is unnecessary to fastcn the ends Of
seams made by this machine. This is done
by the machine itself. without tbs 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 shuttle from
three to five times, for the under thread.
s. A 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 MI varieties
OF fabrics, sewing each equally we'll, requir-
ing no adjustment for any kind of sewing
other than the adaptation Of needles and
thread.
I. It is moro easily kept In order than
any other machine, and need not be taken
apart to be oiled.
8. The machine sews common spool cotton
silk and linen thread, with equal facility.
8. The machine is SO simple that an intel
ligent child of ten years can readily learn to
operate and keep it in order.
To- BY reason Of its simplicity Of construo-
ton and ease Of management, 1t Is best adapt
ell to do NIL the wants Of the family.
