Sewing Machines. NOT EOR AN AGE, BUT FOR ALL TIME! THE WORLD-RENOWNED DINGER OEWING T'ITACHINE SEWS THE FINFST MUSLINS, and HEAVIEST CLOTHS... Easy to Learn. A Child can Work it. NEW AND VALUABLE IMPROVEMENTS. cor the " New Family, " and " Medium," Machines. THE TRIPLE ACTION BALANCE WHEEL. This patented improvement adds a new feature of excellence to these popular Machines. Some of the advantages are as follow :- 1. It enables the inexperienced to suspend the motion of the Machine while learning the tread!e action. 2. If the learner starts the treadle motion in the wrong direction, it will not work the Machine, but as soon is it takes the right direction it puts the Machine in motion. 3. When winding shuttle-bobbins the action of the Machine is suspended, preventing disarrangements of the threads and unnecessary wear. This Mechanical principle on which Singer's Machines are built can hardly be improved, and as a proof of this it need only be said that it is about tbo only Machine imitators have endeavored to copy, not only in America, but alao in Great Britain and the Continent of Europe. The legal proceedings against Kimball and Morton, Nowton Wilson and Co., and Frister and Rossman, are well-known. The case of Newton and Wilson was carried before the House of Lords. The Singer Co. won. The action against Frister and Rossman (a German firm), occupied the Suporior Courts seventeen daya last year. The decision was altogether in favor of the Singer Company. Since that trial no Sewing Machine Manufacturers or Dealers are permitted to use the name " Singer" in connection with the Btyle, ma .c, or sa'e of any Machine except those of the Singer Manufacturing Company's OWN MAKE. BEWARE OF PERSONS who having no good trade repute of their own, use our name " SINGER," to palm off Counterfeit Machines of inferior Construction and Manufacture, Every SINGERIIACHINS has the Company's name printed upon the Arm, and impressed upon the Brass Ti ade-mark Plate. The dinger Manufacturing Company's Machines are all Lock-stitch, and they wear well for more than twenty years. accessoeies given -with each machine. ] Feller 1 Extra Check Spring 1 Set Hemmers and Folder 6 Shuttle Bobbins 1 Tuck-marker „ 12 Needles 1 Quilter ~ 1 Screwdriver 1 Braider „ 1 Bottle of Oil 1 Straight Guide 1 Oiler 1 Screw for Straight Guide 1 Book of Instruction 1 Extra Needle-plate.

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 "IMTACHINES This, the latest claimant for the the position o " Cheapest and Beat in the world " is to be seen a'the Warehouse of Mr E. W. Knowlbs. 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 is common to many machines, and tho term hag therefore no signification of importance. But in the Whir,e machine tnure is this marked improvement on many other varieties—that the feed, plate acts on either side of tho 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 the 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 than ordi nary height above the table, and tho pressure-foot also has a liberal amount of play given to it by the aid of a well-contrived sprine-. A large maia rf material could therefore be passed over the work table, and through tho machine, without tho remotest chance of njury. The entire mechanism is of the most simple character, and so little friction is thero that one may run the m.chine—almost without being conscious of the fact. When tho main pait of the machine is not required to be run—as, for instance, when shuttle bobbins arc to be wound —a little spring catch is thrown bask, and the sewing mechanism is thereby disconnected from the driving gear. Further, when any given bearing may In the course of time become worn, the mere turning of a screw effects a refitting of the friction surfaces. One specially ingenious contrivance is displayed in the tension arrangement of the shutlXe. There are no holes to bo threaded, as la commonly the case ; but tho thread being wound in and out of a few grooves, a little steel plate pops down, and by the action of a spring which can be made light or heavy at will, keeps just the desired strain on the under thread. The tension for the upper thread is also automatic. _ Tho machines are now on view, and an inspection is respectfully solicited, when Price lists, etc., and fuller particulars can be obtained at E.
