After twenty years of successfully manufac-
turing and selling the well-known and we'll
tried WHEELER & WILSON FAMILY SEW
ING MACHINE, We now introduce to the
public 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 II machine which shall be in all re-
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

liability to wear.
I'd Simplicity of construction.
Sd Positiveness and certainty in all its
mo, ements.
While the attainment of the I'd and Sd quail
ties is comparatively easy, that of the 1st in
competition with the othe rs is far more difficult.
To secure this. as we have successfully done,
our machine running at the rate OF 200
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, ana 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 a high rate
of speed. Turning with peculiar variable
motion. alternately accelerated and retarded

distance to avoid all danger OF skipping then

Theindependent take up, an ingenious though
simple device, Is far IN advance of those used
on other machines. 1t draws up the stitch at
precisely the right time, viz: when the neadIe
