consequently, they recommended TWO OF
EACH. The Centennial Commission hunani-
mously ratified the action of the judges, and
the public will indorse the decision Of these
lblest OF mechanical experts. A claim OF
equally distinguished honor for any other
sewing machine is only an attempt to hood
wink the people. Read the following, which

2, A Medal and Diploma for "The New
Wheeler Il Wilson Sewing Machine" for
"SuperiOr quality of work in

These New Machines embrace the elementa
II the original Wheeler g Wilson Machine,
With important additions and variations, and
ffer from other lock stitch Machines in hay
ng Rotary Hook and Bobbin in part Of tho
ihuttle; an independent take-up; an auto
matte under tension; an improved form Of
feed, and better distribution of parts.
The points Of superiority of these Machines
over other Lock k-stitch Machines are very nu-
merous and important.
/. The Rotary Hook is far easier, quieter
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 far less than the shuttle system, 80.
that the saving in time and repairs soon equals
the price of the machine.
8. The simple automatic under tension, or
clamping Of the lower thread while the "take-
up" acts, enables the operator to regulate the
lock Of the two threads while the machine is
in motion, by simply moving a lever, as can
be done with no shuttle machine. y
4. The independent take-up, which draws up
the thread when the needle is out of the mate
rial, prevents the chaGng of the thread be-
tween the needle and the material, and per-
mios the use OF 30 large thread that the
needle hole is entirely filled, making O hrmer
and more beautiful stitch and q 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 d" puckered," point Of especial
Importance in 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 70 the thickest mate
rials, or vice versa, without variation.
s. The needle is set by simply placing ~ 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 thread, which is important for many
purposes.
8. The range OF work with these machines is
far greater than with any other, being on any
material from the lIghtest gauze to the heav-
lest leather. with silk, linen or cotton thread.
T. The parts of these machines are perfectly
interehang 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.
