We have been using a Wilcox Gibbs Machine
for three years, doing all the sewing for large
family. 1t has given perfect satisfaction in every
respect The work done on it is no more liable to
rip than work done by hand with the same care.
We have examined many other kinds of ma
chimes and their work, and have no hesitation in
saying we consider the Wilcox 4 Gibbs decidedly
superior to any of them. LUCY II. GORDON.
