THE ATTACHMENTS


Of our new family machine, above referred to,
are not only numerous, but highly useful for the
purposes for VIII lch they were intended. They
need only trial to show their great value.
Among the most recent of the attachments Is the
re-Et4 EMBROIDERER.
OF the different attachments of our new family
machine which have secured the attention and
approval Of our customers that forembroidering
like the Hemmer, is one of the few instruments
which will most please and satisfy the observer
Of its real value. 1t is so simple In structure
that any one who can sew on our machine can
use it, and without instruction. 1t may be at
tached to or detached from the machine in an
instant. Without q lengthy description, and
even then, it would be difficult to describe the
great variety of work that this little instrument
will do The reader must not suppose that
what we speak of is a mere chain stitch opera
tion, which Is sometimes humorously termed
embroidery. If desired, three colors of any
kind of thread may be used at any one time,
and the colors or thread may be changed at the
will of the operator, by removing the spools in
use and putting others in their stead thus as
many or as few colors may be used as the oper-
ator wishes, In the embrodering of any garment
great variety of results are produced by the
manner in which. the tensions are regulated.
Different results may be produced while the m a.
chine Is in motion by simply changing the ten
siOnS. Results vary according to the length OF
stitches, kinds, colors and tensions of the threads
as we'll as sizes Of the needles used The EN-
broiderer will use any kind Of thread. The use
of zephyr worsted for certain purposes gives
very pleasing results. In order to get just
idea of this valuable attachment 1t will be nee
essary to see 1t in operation.
MANUFACTURING MAC ACHINES.-We would
ask attention to our new Button-hole Machine,
which is the only practical Button-hole Machine
claiming public attention. Our manufacturing z
machines, for other purposes, are too well
known to need com ment
MACHINE TWIsT.--We have recently en-
larged our silk Mills In Newark, N. j.. and fur
nished them with the latest and most improved
machinery which Is being operated by highly
skilled labor. We know and feel the importance
ofnot only supplying the users of our machines,
but the trade generally with the best quality Of
MACHINE TWIST, which we sell by MEASURE
rather than by WEIGHT. The system Of selling
by aceight has given manufacturers the opportu-
nifty of SO heavily weghtlng silk in the process
of dyeing as not only to greatly njure its quail
ity, but also convey wrong impression about
its qdntity. In this respect we mean to be
above suspicion. The manner 10 which the sizes
Of silk are graduated is also matter of great
importance, but we use the greatest possible
care that the graduating shall be exceedingly
accurate. In addition to manufacturing from
the best quality of raw silk, the eyennesS of
thread and beauty Of finish Of the manufactured
article will not we think, be soon surpassed.
Each spool of silk manufactured by u.s. of any
particular size or letter, irrespective Of weight.
con tai ns the number Of yards printed thereon.
Length, strength, size, quality and finish Of the
thread are to be looked to rather than weight.
We are now silk manufacturers on large scale,
and feel that large trade can only be retain cd
BY us in furnishing superior article at fair
price, II other brands of Twist be offered at less
price than ours, purchasers may rest assured
that 1t is inferior in quality, deficient in guam tit
or both.
We have and shall keep In stock at our Gen.
trail Office, and various agencies, Twist Of all
sizes, and of the various colors and shades Of
color in use, and which will be sold at New York
prices.
