The batte-felds of Napoleon |. were scarcely
more numerous than the foreign contests of the
Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machines. Paris, in
1861, London, 1862, Linz and KGingburg, 1868,
Dantze, Aram and Krema, 1864, and Dublin,
Stottin, 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 &
Wilson Machine only and one of the most use
! ful attachments for the Machine ever invented,
which, while the Machine is sewing one tuck,
makes the line Of marks for the next.
ry9 This Tuck Maker awarded the FIRST
premium at the great State FAIR held in Sacra.
mento, 1867, over all competitors.
These Machines are specially adapted for the
use of farmers, being able to sew grain sacks and
heavy clothing with the same facility as the usu-
al family work-making a more durable seam
not liable to rayel as is the case Of the loop or
chain stitch
