After twenty years OF successfully manufac-
turing and selling the welI-known and WELL
tried WHEELER & WILSON FAMILY SEW
ING MACHINE. we now introduce to the
public a larger machine adapted more partic-
ularly 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 u machine which shall be in all
spects precisely what is wanted, 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 be-
Ist A higher rate OF speed without increased
liability to wear.
I'd Simplicity of construction.
Sd Positiveness and certainty In all its
NOV ements.
While the attainment of the ID and Sd quail
ties is comparatively easy, that of the lst In
connection with the otht rs is far more dificuli.
To secure this. as we have successfully done,
our machine running at the rate OF I,aOo
stitches per minute. we necessarily avoided
| the shuttle principle and the osciliating mo-
ton 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
pounding on the shuttle twice at every stitch,
soon wears out, while the wear of tie rotary
motion, being true and smooth, Is very slight
This rotary hook has other advantages be-
sides its caDabllity of running AT high rate
of speed. Turning with a peculiar variable
motion. alternately accelerated and retarded,
Its point. which is slow motion, sufficient
distance to avoid all danger OF skipping then
Immediately increases Its speed until the COM
mencement OF the drawing up the stitch. when
its motion is retarded to conform and 10 again
enter the loop. By this peculiar motion, Q
lock stitch, film and strong Is com pleted at
each revolution of the hook.
The Independent take up an ingenious though
simple device. is far IN advance of those used
precisely the right time, viz: when the nesdis
Is entirely ont of the goods, thereby staining
a stronger tension, and preventing the channg
of the silk or thread by the material sewed.
The self-oiling bars of the needle and pres
sure-foot-the ease OF management-the regis
tering length Of stitch and the ease and Qniet-
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 WHEEI.ER s WILSON'S FAMILY MA
tance which render IL as superior for maau-
featuring purposes as Is the Family Machine
for the household.
By power It will sew 50 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 test
Each machine is supplied with ths necessary
Attachments and appliances for any branch OF
manufacture.
