'The simplicity and accuracy Of Its mechanism

er machines are liable and which has hitherto
brought the "chain stitch into disrcputc. One
cannot but admire the beauty and accuracy of its
movements and the entire absence of all noise
even when running at the rate of 1000 stitches
and upward per minute. This alone must prove
great recommendation to it. Another merit is
the good workmanship. The parts are made in

the machine, any part can be replaced, at tri-
fling cost. It is, indeed II mechanical wonder
