After twenty years of successfully manufac-
turing and selling the welI-known and we'll
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 II 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 Le-
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 I'd and Sd quail
ties is comparatively easy, that of the lst in
connection with the 9th, rs is far more difficull
To secure this as we have successfully done,
our machine running at the rate of l 200
stitches per minute. we necessarily avoided
the shuttle principle and the osclllatlng Ino>
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
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 q peculiar variable
motion, alternately accelerated and retarded,
its point, which is slow motion, a sufficient
distance to avoid all danger OF skipping, then
mencement Of the drawing up the stitch when
| its motion is retarded to conform and to again
enter the loop. By this peculiar. motion,
| lock>stitch, firm and strong is completed at
each revolution of the hook.
The independent 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 needle
is entirely out of the goods thereby sust aiming
| 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
| sure-footr-the ease of management-the regis
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
1 for the household.
By power 1t 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 ano shoes, Harness.
| Carriage Trimmings, etc., to thoroughly test
| its merits.
Each machine is supplied with thu necessary
attachments and appliances for any branch Of
/ manufacture.
ArAll are invited to call at our Sale-room
| and examine these Machines, whether intend
! ing to purchase or not.
