nFALL THE GREAT CURIOSITIES
| ~ which attracted the most attention Mt the
Mechanics Fair are the wonderful improve
ments which are now attached to the weil-known
WHEELER & WILSON SEWING MACHINE,
without the completion of the others. This is
the only Family Sewing Machine with the new
Silent Feed Motion. 1t makes one thousand
button holes per day, on linen, cotton or wooden
goods. 1t sews on the binding of dress with
out previous basting, in four minutes; and while
sewing on one tuck, makes the line of marks for
another; gathers and sews on at the same time;
hens silk or wooden goods with equal facility;
cords and brads with surprising quickness;
makes articles for mems well rs women S
wear takes two thousand stitches per minute
which is fifteen hundred stitches more than any
other lock stitch can make
This wonderful machine has no shuttle to
thread five or six times before starting which is
n great saving of time 1t is positive fact that
WHEELER Il WILSON'S FAMILY SEWING
MACHINES will do all the same kind of work
that the other machines now sale will do
will make the same single thread loop-stitch that
ravels out very conveniently, because you can
sew with one yard of thread all day long, sew
ing it in again and on-all right, and very
convenient; but you will find that the same
WHEELER & WILSON FAMILY SEWING
MACHINE that does all these wonderful things,
makes also the only straight, solid lock-stitch
which cannot be raveled; perfectly safe to walk
to church with clothing made with this stitch;
also this machine will make the three thread EN-
broidery stitch, which is the loopstitch and lock
stitch combined. The AMERICAN INSTITUTE of
New York, reports. This machine makes the
LOCK STITCH,
and ranks highest on account of the elasticity,
permauence, beauty and general dcsirablcness of
application.
This report was in accordance with the previ-
ous--the stitching when done, and the wide
range of its awards at the fair Of the United
States Agricultural Society, at the Fairs of the
American Institute. New York;

The battle-felds of Napoleon l. were scarcely
more numerous than the foreign contests of the
Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machines. Pari in
1861, London, 1862, Linz and Kaingburg, 1868,
Dantzie. Agram and Krema, 1864, and Dublin
Stettin, Cologne and Wicmar 1865 bear testi-
mony to the superiority Of the Machine and its
appreciation abroad. At all these International
Exhibitions the best fruits of foreign genius
were arrayed against it, backed by national
amour propre; but there as here the star Of its
destiny is always in the ascendant.
We can now supply our customers with Stod
dard's Patent Tuck Maker for the Wheeler a.
Wilson Machine only, and one of the most use
fu attachments for the Machine ever invented
which, while the Machine is sewing tuck,
makes the line OF marks for the next.
IS This Tuck Maker awarded the FIRST
PREMIUM nj the great State Fair held in Sacra-
mento, 1867, over all competitors.
These Machines are specially adopted for the
use of farmers, being able to grain sacks and
heavy clothing with the same facility as the usu-
al family work-makinG a more durable seam
not liable to ravo as is the case of the loop on
chain stitch.
