These New Machines embrace the elements
of the original Wheeler & Wilson Machine,
with important additions and variations, and
differ from other lock stitch Machines in hav-'
ing Rotary Hook and Bobbin in part Of the
shuttle; an independent take-up; an auto
matic 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 nl-.
merous and important.
/. The Rotary Hook is far easier, quieter
J and more rapid and certain in action than the
vibrating shuttle, and hence produces more
| regular and even stitch, and does far moro
| work with less fatigue OF the operator.
2. The Rotary Hook system is more durable
| and wears far less than the shuttle system, so
| that the saving in time and repairs soon equalE
| 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 lever, as can ;
| be done with no shuttle machine.
L. The independent take-up, which draws up
| the thread when the needle is out Of the mate
rial, prevents the chating of the thread be.

8. The needle is set by simply placing lit MI

wound and arranged than with the shuttleI
machine; the bobbin is nct threaded as is thei
shuttle and beng much arger requires filing

purposes.
8. The range Of work with these machines Ia
| far greater than with any other, being on any
material from the llghtest gauze to the heav-
lest leather. with silk, linen or cotton thread
I. The parts OF these machines are perfectly y
interchangeable, and their form, distribution,
balance and movement, secure not only the
greatest durability and speed, with the least
power, but also the greatest case 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 THE MACHINES .-Evcrv
knd Of stitching, from that required in the
heaviest manufacturing to the lightest and
most delicate possible, may be done to peYfec-
tion with the No. 8 Machine; but as there are
certain purposes TO which the No. Z 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:
FOR THE NO. 6 MACHINE-Boots
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 TIE NO. 7 NEACElXyE--Tailor-
ing Of all kinds, suit making, cloaks, gloves
blankets, dash boards, curtains and every
kind Of work in heavy fabrics.
FOR THE NO. MACEfTNE-Tailor-
ing, all kinds Of linen work, corsets. skirts, alh
kinds Of ornamental braiding, overalls, shoe
Innings, hosiery, umbrellas, collars and cuffs,

Either of these Machines is superior to those
Of any other system for stitching suspendersJ
