superior excellence OF these machines de-
served more than one medal or diploma, and
consequently, they recommended TWO OF
EACH. The Centennial Commission unani-
mousiy ratified the action Of the judges, and
the public will indorse the decision Of these
ablest 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
stamps the "New Wheeler & Wilson" as the
STANDARD SEWING MACHINE OF THE WORLD.

These New Machines. embrace the elements
Of the original Wheeler q Wilson Machine,
with important additions and variations, and
4iffer from other lock stitch Machines in hav-
ing u Rotary Hook and Bobbin in part Of the
shuttle; an independent take-up; an auto
matte under 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.
1. The Rotary Hook is far easier, quieteI
and more rapid and certain in action than the
vibrating shuttle, and hence produces more
regular and even stitch, and does far more
work with less fatigue Of the operator.
q The Rotary Hook system is more durable
aud wears far less than the shuttle system, 80
that the saving in time and repairs soon equals
the price of the machine.
g. The simple automatic under tension, OF
clamping Of the lower thread while the take
up" acts, enables the operator to regulate the
2ock of the two threads while the machine il
in motion, by simply moving lever, as can
be done with no shuttle machine.
d. The independent take-up, which draws III
the thread when the needle is out Of the mate =
rial, prevents the chafng of the thread be.
tween the needle and the material, and per.
mits the use OF 80 large thread that thC
needle hole is entirely flied, making Irmcr
and more beautiful stitch and a water ii ght
seam in water proof gooIs, and as the stitch
Is drawn up, when the feed is not acting, thu
material is not " puckered," a point Of especial
importance in braiding, binding and geaeral
sewing, ETC.; the rolling eyelct prevents The
friction Of the thread, and allows it to flow
with uniform twist and evcnness, and the ten.
sion or lock Of the threads being properly ad.
justed, the scam with any length Of stitch
passes from the thinnest to the thiekest mate.
rials, or vice versa, without variation.
s. 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 being much larger requires filling
less often, and permits the use OF a cord in

purposes.
6. The range of work with these machines il
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 perfect 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 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 THE MACHINES. .--Eyery
kim of stitching, from that required in the
heaviest manufacturing to the lightest anG
most delicate possible, may be done to pei fec.
tion with the No. 6 Machine; but as there are
certain purposes to which the No. Z and the
No. are more especially suited by reason O.
size or form, some Of the various kinds o.
work to which each machine is particularly
adapted may be classified Us follows:
FOR THE NO. 6 NTACHINE-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. 7 NACHHNE-Tailor-
ing Of all kinds, suit making, cloaks, gloves
blankets, dash boards curtains and every
kind Of work in heavy fabrics.
FOR THE NO. MACHINE-Tailor-
ing, all kinds Of linen work, corsets. skirts, all
kinds OF ornamental braiding, overalls, shoe
Innings, hosiery, umbrellas, collars and cuffs,
shirts, and general domestic work.
Either of these Machines is superior to those
Of any other system for stitching suspenders
and all kinds of rubber and oil cloth goods.
