Three trains pass over the route daily each
way between Chicago ana New York. These
all make close connections at Tolelo, Dunkirk
and BufIulo-lhe being no ferries-iransters
being..made in union depots, and the tiains,
which a'e links in a through line, accommo-
dating themselves to one another. The high
est comfort. as we'll as the utmost dispatch is
secured For exam pie: passengers leaving
Chicago at Z A. NJ, can, ifthey wish to enjoy
perfect repose en- route, or to travel in privacy

elegant day cars. with the same choice of
routes as before. This train, reaching Toledo

THE GROVER & BAKER ELASTIC
STITCH SEWING MACHINES

THE GROVER & BAKER ELASTIC
STITCH SEWING MACHINES
Are superior to all others for the following
reasons:
l. They sew direct from the spools, and
require no re-winding of thread.
9. They are more easily understood and
.sed, and less liable to arrangement than 9TH
er machines.
8. They are capable of executing perfect
ly, without change of adjustment, much
greater variety of work than other machines.
4. The stitch made by these machines is
much more firm. elastic, and durable, espe-
cialIy upon articles which require to be wash
ed and ironed than any other stitch
;. This stitch, owing TO the manner in
which the outer thread is lnwrought. is much
the most plump and beautiful In use, and re-
tains this plumpness and beauty even upon
articles frequently washed and ironed until
they are worn out.
6. The structure of the seam is such that,
though it be cut or broken at intervals of on
" few stitches, it will neither open, run, nor
rayei, but remains firm and durable.
7. Unlike other machines, these fasten
both ends. of the seam by their own opera
ton.
s. With these machines, while silk is used
upon the right or face side Of the seam cot
ton may be sed upon the other side without
lessenirg the strength or durability of the
seam. This can be done on 40 other ma
chine, and is a great saving upon all articles
stitched or made up with silk.
9. These machines, in addition to their
superior merits as instruments for sewing. by
a change of adjustment, easily learned and
practised, execute the most beautiful and per-
manen! embroidery and ornamental work.
