STANDARD SEWING MACHINE OF THE WORLD.

?. A Melal and Diploma for "The New
Wheeler ~ Wilson Sewing Machine " Tor
"Superior quality of work in
Leather Stitching."
These New Machines embrace the elementl
3f the original Wheeler & Wilson Machine,
with impoi tant add tions and variations, and
rlifftr from other lock stitch Machines in hav-
ing IL Rotary Hook and Bobbin in part Of tho
matte under tension; an improved form Of
feed, and a better distribution Of parts.
The points OF superiority Of these MachineS
over other Lock-stitch Machines are very nus
merous and important
+ /. The Rotary Hook is far easier, quieteE
and more rapid and certain in action than the
vibrating shuttle, and hence produces more
regular and even stitch, and does far mora
work with less fatigue Of the operator.
2. The Rotary Hook system is more durable
and wears farless than the shuttle system, so
that the saving in time and repairs soon equala
| the price Of the machine.
g. The simple automatic under tension, or
clamping of the lower thread while the "take-
up" acts, enables the operator to regulate tho
lock Of the two threads while the machine ia
in motion, by simply moving a lever, as can
De done with no shuttle machine.
4 The independent take-up, which draws up
the thread when the needle is out of the mate
rial, prevents the cha1ng Of the thread be-
tween the needle and the material, and per-
mlts the use of SO large thread that tho
needle hole is entirely filed, making q frmer
and more beautiful stitch and a water tight
seam in water proof goo IS, and as the stitch
is drawn up, when the feed is not acting, the
material is not " puckered," point of especial
Importance i'll braiding, binding and general
sewing, etc.; the rolling eyelet prevents the
friction of the thread, and allows it to flow
with uniform twist and evenness, and the ten
sion or lock of the threads being properly ad-
justed, the seam with any length of stitch
passes from the thinnest to the thickest mate
rials, or vice versa, without variation.
8. The needle is set by simply placing lit nj
position; the under thread is much more easily
wound and arranged than with the shuttle
machine; the bobbin is not threaded as is the
shuttle, and beng much larger requires filing
less often, and permits the use Of cord in
place of threat, which is important for many
purposes.
6. The range of work with these machines il
far greater than with any other, being on any
material from the highest gauze to the heav-
lest leather. with silk, linen or C" IN thread.
z. The parts of these machines are perfectly
interchang geable, and their form, distribution,
balance and movement, secure not only the
greatest durability and speed, with the least
power, but also the greatest ease and con-
venience OF management, and their superior
system, devices, material and workmanship
constitute them the elimination of Sewing
Mechanism and the standard Sewing Ma
chimes Of the world.
USES OF TEEE MACHINES. .--Everi
kind of stitching, from that required in the
heaviest manufacturing to the lightest and
most delicate possible, may be done TO pc fec.
tion with the No. Machine; but as there arc
certain purposes to which the No. I and the
No. are more especially suited by reason Of
size or form, some of the various kinds Of
work to which each machine is particularly
adapted may be classified as follows:
FOE THE NO. 6 NLACHGNE-Boot,
and shoes, harness, saddles, carriage trim.
mings, patent leather trimmings for harness,
horse collars, travelling bags, trunk trimmings
canvas bags pocket books, and heavy leather
work generally.
FOR THE NO. Z NIACHINE-Taiior-
ing of all kinds, suit making, cloaks gloves,
blankets, dash boards, curtains and every
kind OF work in heavy fabrics. ~
FOR THE NO. s MACHINE-Tailor-
ing, all kinds of linen work, corsets skirts, all
