THE AMERICAN INSTITUTION.

THE Grover a Baker Sewing Machine has
special claims TO public attention, as very SUI
perior 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 it is claimed
that It'll 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 arc claimed to
be, we propose briefly to state, that q compari-
son may be drawn between the Grover d Baker
and other machines:
1. 1t makes the only seam formed by a 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
the thread being cut at every fourth stitch with
out injury to the seam in wear.
g. 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.
A. The Grover a. Baker stitch is the only one
formed FROM two ordinary spools, and without
winding frSm the spool into the shuttle from
three to five times for the under thread.
8. seam thus formed is moro elastic than
any other made by a sewing machine, and is
very valuable in all goods that arc to be washed
and stretched under the iron.
6. The machine is adapted to all varieties of
fabrics, sewing each equally well, and requiring
no adjustment for any kind of sewing other
than the adoption of needles and thread
7. 1t is moro easily kept in order than any
other machine, and need not TO be taken apart
to be oiled.
8. The machine sews common spool cotton,
silk, and linen thread with equal facility.
9, The machine is SO simple that an intelli-
gent child Of ten years can readily learn to op-
eratc and keep it in order.
10. BY reason Of its simplicity of construc-

sanity, "a they were called, were so familiar TO
the inhabitants of that city that his most absurd
performances excited but little remark. A few
