At the Universal Exposition Of 1899, at Paris,
France the best sewing machines of the world,
including those of America, were in competition:
They were passed upon BY a jury composed of
the best foreign mechanical experts two of whom
were the leading sewing machine manufacturers
of France This jury, after exhaustive examina-
ton and tests, adjudged that the Wheeler &
Wilson machines were the best of all, and award
ed that company the highest prize offered-the
GRAND PRiZE-giving other companies only
gold, silver and bronze medals.
The French government, as a further recOgnl
ton of superiority, decorated Mr. Nathaniel
Wheeler, president of the company, with the
Cross of the Legion of HonoT-the most priced
honor Of France.
The No. 8, for family use, and the No. H. for
manufacturing uses, are the best in the world
to-day.
And now, when you want q sewing machine, if
you do not get the best it will be your own fault
Ask your sewing machine dealer for the No.

them, write to us for descriptive catalogue and
