L SINGER SEWING MACHINES.

The Singer Manufacturing Co.'S New Fami
~ Machine.-No other family Sewing Machine
has so rapidly won favor in the household
The very large sales Of that popular machine,
as shown by official returns, far exceed those
OF any other company and this fact or result
has been owing to its real merts-hence Its
great and growing popularity 1t is simple
in construction, easily understood, easily OPP
erated-all its parts gliding smoothly and
noiselessly along-not liable to get out of or
der, has capacity for great range and varie-
ty of work. sewing all kinds Of cloth and with
the numerous attachments for bsmming, cord
ing, tucker, quilting, tri1ming, binding,
brsiding, etc., and emhcoidering of many in
genious, tasteful ard difficult designs, is the
most perfect Of all family sewing machines
AHJ one who will take the trouble to exam
ine the merits of the different machines claim
inc attention. can soon discover .ehether We
claim too much for ours. 1t would svai) Us
nothing to make the above assertions if we
were not ready TO prove them. and all we ask
is trial, for observation alone can justly
convey a clear impression of the many kinds
of work of which our new family machine is
capable.
TIE FOLDING CASES,
Which open with spacious ts1ies 10 SUSTAIN
the work, and which fold into tao,,-As or BOXES
to protect the machines, when not in use, ..fen
dust and medilssome fingers are made from
choice woods, embellished by pleasing designs
thus making our new family machine not only
an ornamental piece of furniture but in some
Of the more deliberately finished machines, 4
~ ork OF real art.
THE ATTACHMENTS
OF our new family machine, above referred
to. are not only numerous, but highly useful
for the purposes for which they ware indebt>
ed They need only a trial to show their
great value. Among the most recent of the
attachments is the
EMBROIDERER.
OF the different attach c,ents of our new
family machine which have secured the atten-
ton and approval OF customers that for
embroideFing, like he Hemmer, is one Of the
few instruments which will most please and
satisfy the observer of it's real value. 1t is so
simple in structure, that any one who can
Sc on our machine can use it, and without
instruction It may be attached to or detaeh
ed from the machine in an instant. Without
a 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 II mere CDSlD StlCn CDeFdilcU, WHICH Is
sometimes humorously termed embroidery. If
desired, three colors Of auy kind of thread
may be used at any one time, ana he colors
or thread may DE changed at the will of the
operator, by removing the spools in use and
putting others In their stead; thus as many
or as lie. colors may be used as the operator
wishes, IN the embrCidering of ally garment.
\ great variety of results are produced by the
manner in which the tensions are regulated
Different results may be produced while the
machine is in motion by simply changing the
tensions. Results vary according TO the length
of stitches, kinds, colors ard tensions of the
threads as well as size Of the needle used
The Embroiderer will use any kind CT thrsad.
The uss of zephyr worstea for certain purpo-
SEES gives very pleasing results. In order to
get a just idea of this valuable attachment it
will be necessary TO see it in operation.
MANUFACTURING MACHINES. = We
would ask attention. to our new Button hole
Machine which is the only practical Button
hole Machine claiming public attention. Our
manufacturing machines, for othar purposes.
are too well known toneed comment.
MACHINE TNIST.-we have recently en-
iarged our silk Mill in Newark n T., and
furnished hem with the latest and most inn
proved machinery. which is being operated
by highly skilled labor. We know and feel
the Importance Of not only supplying the
users or our machines. bar tie trade generally
wlth tbs best qualify of Machine Twist, which
we sell by measure rather than by weight.
The system of selling by weight has given
manufacturers tie opportunity of heavily
weighing silk in the process Of deying as not
only to greatly iniure its quality, but also to
convey wrong impression about its quantity
In this respect Ns mean to be abovesuspicion
The manner in which thu sizes of silk are
graduate is also q 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 the thread
and beautv of finish of the manufactured
article will nct, we think, be soon surpassed
Each snool of SIX manufactured by US, of any
particular size or Letter, Irrespective Of weight
contains the number OF yards printed thereon
Length, strength. size, qualify and finish Of
the thread are to be looked TO rather than
weight. We are now silk manufacturers on q
large scale. and feel that a large trade can
only be retained by US in furnishing a superior
article at fair price If other brands Of
twist be offered at less price than ours, purch-
asers may rest assured that it is Inferior In
quality, deficient in quantity, or both. =
We have and shall keep in stock at on,
Central Office, and various agencies, Twist of
all sizes, and of the various colors and Shades
of color in nse, and which viii be sold at
New York prices.
