The result is a Sewing Machine which, for
simplicity, reliability and durability, can never
be surpassed. 1t uses two threads and makes
the celebrated double lock elastic stitch, now
acknowledged to be the best for all family pur
poses, and in fact the only one that will stand
any amount of strain in wear, and allow the gar
ments to be thoroughly washed and ironed with
out breaking. The machine is all on the sur
face, and can be oiled without removal; the
length of stitch can be changed while the ma
chine is in motion; it feeds the fabric through

hand. You can also, on these machines, quilt
on the bare wadding without interlining, thereby
making it as soft and pliable as if done by hand.
Their wonderful simplicity renders instruction
for using them almost entirely supertiuous, as a
child ten years OF age, of ordinary intelligence
can soon learn to operate them successfully.
1t is unnecessary to fdsten the end of the seams
made by this machine; this is done by the ma
chine itself without the use of the hand needle,
as each stitch is independently tied, and cannot
rip even if every third stitch is cut; still, by prop
er Instructions the seam can be readily removed
when desired.
This machine is the result and com Animation of
all that is practicable in d sewing machine, doing
away with all the complicated surroundings OF
other machines. They nave been examined by
the most profound experts, and pronounced to
be simplicity and perfection combined.
The unprecedented popularity of this celebrat-
ed sewing machine in every place where intro
duced, has few parallels in the history of sew
ing by machinery, and the manufacturers are
now receiving the highest Communications from
the press and public as worthy tribute for
their utility and intrinsic merit.
We furnish with every machine free, an oil
can, u hemmer, screw driver, needles OF va
rious sizes for sewing all kinds of material, with
full directions for operating the machine upon
every variety of work. With our new factory
and greatly extended facilities for manufacturing
we shall able TO turn out the machines with
great perfection and rapidity, and Tor the pur-
pose OF introducing them Immediately, without
vast outlay in advertising, We propose to place
the price but trifie above the actual cost there
by giving our patrons the benefit of the vast
sums used by other companies in putting their
machines, believing that we shall profit in the
long run; ana thereby atfording those III want

ting good double thread machine at less than
the wholesale price of other double thread ma
chimes. While we are sensible OF the opposition
OF manufacturers and operators in high priced
machines, and of their untiring efforts TO place
our sewing machines as unfavorably before The
pu!iic they can, in order, If possible, TO raise
the price OF machines or crush us. we cannot but
be convinced that the more they talk the more
they advV. &C our machines. knowing the yer-
dict OF u.sc Iminating public is Tor us when we
prefer the ''nimble siXpence" and satisfaction 10
our patrons, with these advantages we place this
machine fearlessly before the public, IN the full
assurance ihat its manifold merits must make
itself manifest to the discriminating eye.
The capacity of this machine for work is eX-
tensive, we think far beyond any other machine
yet invented. 1t will sew every fabric known
or ever sewed, and make equally as fine stitch
on the coarsest material as on the finest silk.
1he heaviest cloth can be made up with neat
ness and lapIdlty. Silks, laCeS, cambrics, mus
llns, sheetlngs, WooIens, Casslmeres, DrOadcloth
of all thcknesses, and leather can be run throug
this machine and sewed, with the same thread
and needle,) one succeeding the other continu.

without stopping an instant, until each piece il

found precisely the same on each piece or fabric
presenting the same uniform seam through them
ali, and stitched with tirmness, beauty Of fms
and regularity surprising even to experienced
operators OF The most celebrated machines an
achievement not yet accomplished by the high

The stitches can be cut at intervals of an inch
and then it will be found utterly impossible to
rip or tear the seam apart.
Washing and ironing does not alter its ap-
pearance, or weaken the seam. The stitches can
be made finer or coarser while the machine Is in
motion by very simple contrivance. And the
work can be guided and sewed by children equal
ly as well as by grown persons, the manner OF
sewing being SO simple, easy and perfect.
