KNOWLES IS THE APPOINTED AGENT FOR TUB NEW WHITE, HORIZONTAL, FEED, NOISELESS, EASY RUNNING, (And without fear of contradiction) THE BEST OF ALL KNOWN QEWING Ti/rACHINES. This, the latest claimant for the the position o " Cheapest and Best in the world " is to be seen at the Warehouse of Mr E. W. Rnowlbs, Hastings-street, and unquestionably the many ingenious points displayed in the construction render it well worth examining. As a matter of fact the horizontal feed I is common to many machines, and the term has J therefore no signification of importance. But in tho White machine there is this marked improvement on many other varieties—that the feed plate acts on either side of the needle. In other words, the work S is pushed along bb if by two fingers instead of one. Obviously this tends to produce very even results, and it enables the operator to sew along the right or left edge of tho fabric at pleasure. At the same S time, the arm of the machine is at a more than ordinary height above tho table, and tho pressure-foot also has a liberal amount of play given to it by tho aid of a well-contrived sprin<r. A large mass o material could therefore bo passed over the worktable, and through the machine, without the remotest ebanco of injury. The entire mechanism is of the most simple character, and so little friction is there that one may run tho machine—almost with,t out being conscious of the fact. When the main :. part of the machine is not required to be run—as, for instance, when Bhuttlo bobbins are to be wound —a little spring catch is thrown back, and the sewing mechanism is thereby disconnected from the driving gear. Further, when nny given bearing may in the course of time become worn, the mora ji turning of a screw effects a refitting of the friction a surfaces. One specially ingenious contnvanco is displayed in tho tension arrant uient of * he «»»«». There are no holes to be threaded, aa a the case; but tho thread beimr wound in and out ot a few grooves, a little steel! plate P»l^W?*^ __US_fJ_ *g£S2s&& "M'the SSto^aT/tSnforthe upper thread is also automatic. rpv,„ mn.hines are now on view, and an inspection 1, wiSrttoWicltod, when Price lists, etc., and ,ii .*™,Jt imi_rs con bo obtained at fuUerpMt X YV.
