THE AMERICAN INSTITUTION

The Grover a Baker Sewing Machine has
special claims to public attention, as n very SUI
peror and valuable assistant in household in
dustry. That this machine has made thousands
of friends, who attest its superiority over every
thing else can not be doubted; and 1t is claimed
that it is only necessary to REASON upon its pc
culiarities to enable any person to appreciate
its advantages in the family over any other one
in use. What these advantages are claimed to
be, we propose briefly to state, that compari-
son may be drawn between the Grover a Baker
and other machines: 1 1l
|. 1t makes the only seam formed by sewing
machine in which each stitch is independently
locked, and without dependence upon the other
stitches for strength.
2. 1t makes the only seam that will admit Of
tho thread being cut at every fourth stitch with
out injury to the seam in wear.
3. 1t is unnecessary to fasten The ends OF
seams made by this machine. This Is done by
the machine 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 the 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 machiue, and is
very valuable in all goods that arc to be washed
and stretched under the iron.
8. The machine is adapted TO all varieties Of
fabrics, sewing each equally we'll, and requiring
no adjustment for any kind of sewing other
than the adoption of needles and thread.
z. 1t is more easily kept in order than any
other machine, and need not to be taken apart
to be oiled. Nt
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 op.
crate and keep il in order.

Fatal Accidcnt-Man Shot!

On last Sunday morning Hiram Ripple
and Samuel Marker went out hunting in
the woods near John Kellcy's in Center
Township, aud atte: being out some time
Marker commenced calling like turkey
and was answered, as he supposed, by \
turkey. After repeating the call several
times and being answered, he saw through
the brush what he took 10 be a turkey,
and fired but the supposed turkey was
Evan Conner, who was also out hunting,
and who was pierced through the breast
with the shot and almost instantly killed
The affair was purely accidental Marker did
not know that Conner was ont. and sup
posed that tEe call was that of turkey.
He was honoraby acquitted by the Coro-
ner's jury. 1t is also thought that Con-
ner supposed Markers call to be that of
a turkey and was trying to get shot. A
sad affair, an. the second man shot in this
way in our county South bend Register.
