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
the machine without assistance from the opera
tor; the thread is taken directly from the origin
al spools without re-windng, using silk. cotton
or linen thread of any No; and working with
equal facility from the finest lace to many thick
nesses of heavy beaver cloth.
Their range and capacity for work is even
greater than most of the high priced machines,
| as with proper attachments you can hem, fell,
stitch, bind, quilt, tuck, braid, gather, guage,
cord plat, rufie, and by merely inserting threads
of suitable size and colors embroder IN the most
beautiful style, superior to anything attained by
hand. You can also, on these machines, quilt
on the bare wadding without interining, thereby
making it as soft and pliable as if done by hand.
Their wonderful simplicity renders instruction
| for using them almost entirely supertiuous as q
child ten years of age, of ordinary intelligence
can soon learn to operate them successfully.
It is unnecessary to fasten 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 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 Sination of
all that is practicable in sewing machine, doing
away with all the complicated surroundings of
| other machines. they have been examined by
the most profound experts, and pronounced to
be simplicity and perfection combined.
The unprecedented popularity of this celebrat-
ed sewing machine III 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 Tor
their utility and intrinsic merit.
| We furnish with every machine free, an oil
can, a hemmer, a 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 be able 10 turn out the machines with
great perfection and rapidity, and for the pur-
pose OF introducing them Immediately, without
a vast outlay in advertising, We propose to place
the price but triie 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 and thereby affording those in want
Of so useful an article rare opportunity Oh get
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
public they can, in order, If possible to raise
the price of machines or crush US. we cannot but
1 be convinced that the more they talk the more
p they advertise our machines. Knowing the ver-
dict of a discriminating public is Tor us when we
prefer the "nimble Sixpence" and satisfaction to
our patrons, with these advantages we place this
1 machine fearlessy before the public, IN the full
assurance that its mSnifnla merits must make
itself manifest to the discriminating eye.
The capacity of this machine for work is ex-
! tensve, we think, far beyond any other machine
l yet invented. 1t will sew every fabric known
, or ever Sewed, and make equally as fine stitct
4 on the coarsest material as on the finest silk.
r The heaviest cloth can be made up with neat
ness and Tapidity. Silks aces, cambrics, mus
Inns, sheetings, woolens, cassimeres, broadclOtf
of all thcknesses, and leather can be run through
this machine and sewed, with the same thread

work can be guided and sewed by children equal

sewing being so simple. easy and perfect.
