superior excellence OF these machines de-
served moro than one medal or diploma, and
consequently, they recommended TWO or
EACH. The Centennial Commission unani-
mously ratified the action Of the judges, and
the public will indorse the decision OF these
ablest OF mechanical experts. A claim Oh
equally distinguished honor for any other
sewing machine Ia only an attempt to hood
wink the people. Read the following, which
stamps the New Wheeler & Wilson" as the
STANDARD SEWING MAcHINE OF THE WORLD.
From the Official Report
Awards to Wheeler & Wilson.
1. A Medal and Diploma for "New Wheelez
8 Wilson Sewing Machine" for the following
reasons:
UA ALock.stitch Sewing Machine
unsurpassed in tho fine WOrkm "A"
ship OF its parts, and possessing
5i.ity to different classes Of work
both ON cloth and leather. beauty
of stitch, ease and ra apiditY OF mo"
tiOn, and cOmpleteness OF ais-
play.n
?. A Medal and Diploma for "rhe New
Wheeler u Wilson Sewing Machine " for
Superior quality of work in
Leather Stitching"
These New Machines embrace the elements
Of the original Wheeler & Wilson Machine,
with important additions and variations, aud
liffer from other lock stitch Machines in hav-
ing Rotary Hook and Bobbin in part OF the
shuttle; 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 stitch Machines are very nA-
merous aud important
l. The Rotary Hook is far easier, quieteR
| and more rapid and certain in action than the
vibrating shuttle, and hence produces moro
| regular and even stitch, and does far mora
work with less fatigue Of the operator.
The Rotary Hook system is moro durable
| and wears far less than the shuttle system, so
| 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 I" take
| up" acts, enables the operator to regulate ths
| lock Of the two threads while the machine 10
in motion, by simply moving a lever, as caA
| be 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 chahng of the thread be-
tween the needle and the material, and per-
mits the use OF so large a thread that the
needle hole is entirely filed, making GrmeF
and more beautiful stitch and water -tighb
seam i'll water proof goo Is, and as the stitch
is drawn up, when the feed Is not acting, tho
material is not " puckered," point Of especial
| Importance In braiding, binding and general
| sewing, ETC.; the rolling eyelet prevents tho
| friction Of the thread, and allows it to flow
| with uniform twist and cvenness, and the ten
sion or lock Of the threads being properly ad-
| justed, the seam with any length Of stitch
| passes from tho thinnest to the thiokest mate
rials, or vico versa. without variation.
g. 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 argcr requires fllinK
less often, and permits the use OF cord in
place of thread, which is important for many
purposes
6. The range Of work with these machines ID
far greater than with any other, being on any
material from the llghtest gauze to the heay-
lest leather, with silk, linen or cotton thread.
7. The parts of these machines are perfectly
nterchan 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 superidt
system, devices, material and workmanship
constitute them the elimination Of Sewing
Mechanism and the standard Sewing Ma
chimes Of the world
USES OF THE MACHINES Every
kind Of stitching, from that required in tho
heaviest manufacturing to the lightest and
most delicate possible, may be done to perfec-
lion with the No. Machine; but as there ara
certain purposes to which tho No. Z and thu
No. 8 are more especially suited by reason Of
size or form, some OF the various kinds oi
work to which each machine is particularly
adapted may be classified as follows:
FOR THE NO. NACHINE-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. MACHHNE-Taiior
lng OF all kinds, suit making, cloaks, gloves
| blankets, dash boards, curtains and evsE
/ kind Of work in heavy fabrics.
FGR THE NO. MACHINE-Tailor
ing, all kinds of linen work, corsets. skirts, al
] kinds of ornamental braiding, oyerals, sho,
: Innings, hosiery, umbrellas, collars and cuifN
shirts, and general domestic work.
Either Of these Machines is superior to thoS,
Of any other system for stitching suspenders
and all kinds OF rubber and oil cloth goods.
