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 -|UrACHINE3, This, tho latest claimant for the tho. position o "Cheapest and Best in the world "is to be seenatthO Warehouse of Mr E. W. Knowles, Hastings-street, and unquestionably the many ingenious points dis. played in the construction render it well worth examining. As a matter of fact the horizontal feed is common to many machines, and the term haa therefore no signification of importance. But in the 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 is pushed along as if by two fingers instead of one. Obviously this tends to produce very even results, and it enables tho operator to sew along the right or left edge of the fabric at pleasure. At the same time, the arm of the machine is at a more thanordl« nary height above the table, and the pressure-foot also has a liberal amount of play given to it by tha aid of a well-contrived spring. A. large mass o material could therefore be passed over tho worktable, and through the machine, without the remotest chance of i njmy. The entire mechanism is of the most simple character, and so little friction is there that one may ran the machine—almost without being conscious of the fact. When the mala part of the machine ia not roquired to be run—as, for instance, when shuttle 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 any given bearing may In the course of time become worn, tho mere turning of a screw effects a refitting of tho friction surfaces.
