After twenty years Of successfully manufac
turing and selling the we'll known and well.
tried WHEELER & WILSON FAMILY SEW.
ING MACHINE, we now Introduce to the
public larger machine adapted more partic.
uiarly to the manufacture of Heavey Clothing
Boots and Shoes, Harness, Carriage Trimmings
etc, ETC., either by steam or foot power.
We have spared neither expense nor study
to produce II machine which shall be in all re.
spects precisely what is waniel, or in other
words, equal TO the emergency.
In studying what is necessary to constitute
the best Manufacturing Sewing Machine, we
find the requisite quantities to Le-
1st A higher rate of speed without increased
liability to wear.
I'd simplicity of construction.
3D. Positiveness and certainty in all Its
moN ements.
While the attainment of the I'd and Sd quali-
ties is comparatively easy, that of the LIST in
connection with the otht Is far more difficult
To secure this. as we have successfully done
our machine running at the rate of zoo
stitches per minute. We necessarily avoided
the shuttle principle and the osciliating mo>
tion pertaining thereto, and adhered strictly
to our old established rotary motion.
The reason is obvious. The continuous
rotary motion, has none of the stopping and
starting. and consequent shocks of the shuttle
machine. The latter by constant striking and
pounding on the shuttle twice at every stitch
soon wears out, while the wear Of the rotary
motion, being true and smooth, Is very slight
This rotary hook has other advantages be-
sides its capability of running at high rate
of speed. Turning with a peculiar variable
motion. alternately accelerated and retarded
its point. which Is slow motion, a sufficient
distance TO avoid all danger OF skipping, then
Immediately increases its speed until the COM
mencement OF the drawing up the stitch when
lis motion Is retarded to CONFORM and to again
enter the loop. By this peculiar motion, @
lock stitch. firm and strong is completed al
eaca revolution OF the hook.
The eindependent take up, an ingenious though
simple device, is far IN advance of those used
on other machines. 1t draws up the stitch al
precisely the right time, viz: when the needle
is entirely out of the goods, thereby sustaining
a stronger tension and preventing the chafing
of the silk or thread by the material sewed.
The self-oiling bars of the needle and pres.
tering length Of stitch and the ease and quiet
ness of running. will commend themselves to
all manufacturers and operators.
This Machine, designed especially for heavy
work combines with all the excellent qualities
of WHEELER & WILSON'S FAMILY MA.
CHINE. many novel features OF great impor-
tance which render 1t as superior for manu-
featuring purposes as Is the Family Machine
for the household.
By power it will sew so per cent faster than
any shuttle machine, and many fold the dura
bility. 1t is for the interest Of manufacturers
of heavy Clothing, Boots and Shoes, Harness
Carriage Trimmings, etc., to thoroughly tes
its merits.
Each machine is supplied with ths necessary
attachments and appliances for any branch o.
manufacture.
and examine these Machines, whether intend
Ing to lurchase or not.
