TTjTHEELER AND WILSON'S LOCK-STITCH SEWING MACHINES. • REDUCED PRICES: ; „\ \ AN ACROSTIC. W heeler and Wilson's Lock-Stitch Sewing Machines, are still unrivalled, although -■■.'they--' ■' '■■'■ '■■ ■■'■ ■■■■:■: ■;---.k-.:--H ave been before the public nearly twenty years. During that period many Enterprising firms have tried to supersede them. Yet they maintain their s,upe-. ; riority. ; : '' '''■'' "■"' E very. one admits th^t there is.no Machin Stitch at all comparable to the L ock-stitcVwhich is the firmest aDd neatest, has the same appearance on E ach'side of the material sewn, arid, though' cut in two, will not * H - ; R avel. — The Lock Stitch is the distinguishing feature of iQieir machines ; A nd in addition to the Lock-stitch they have recently introduced an important yet perfectly N ovel feature, which not only performs Ornamental Sewing, but also the most D elicate Embroidery. Their machines will now stitch, hem, -fell, gather, tuck, bind, cord, quilt, trim, braid, embroider, and in fact will accomplish every kind of work which a machine can produce. W heeler and Wilson beg especially to call the attention of every • : I. ndividual who requires a Sewing Machine to the Silent Feed Bar, their L atest improvement, which has had the de- . sirable effect of rendering their l; Sewing' Machines Silent-working! This entirely removes what was foririerly considered an ; ■-■■.'• ; 6 bjection to the introduction of a Sewing Machine into ladies'_ apartments. N othing now remains to beaccompliahed in order to render the ; j ' S ilent-working Lock-stitch- Sewing Machine the most perfect instrument in. the . market, .as numerous ; testimonials attest. A pamphlet, containing a few of these, with a description of the machine, its construction and mode of working, and illustrations of its various : parts, may be had on application. S eventy Prize Medals have already been bestowed in all parts of the world on these machines. In Paris, at the Exposition Universelle (1867) Wheeler and Wilson's Machines were acknowledged to lead the world in this branch of industry ; for out of no less a number than eighty-two competitors they were the only firm to whom a gold medal was awarded; thus "placing the Wheeler and Wilson," says the Art Journal, "at the head of all Sewing Machine Manufacturers, both in Europe and America." E very year has witnessed improvements in . ; cpnstruction, and it has become ; ; i; ,; W orld renowned. I n order to ensure accuracy of finish and perfection of of workmanship, N , ot a single machine is allowed to leave the manufactory till it has G otic through the hands of three competent engineers, and should any defect be found, it is immediately remedied. M ore than three hundred and twenty thousand of these machines have been sold, and the A nnual sale now amounts to the prodigiou number of over 60,000 ! C an more be said to convince the most sceptical of their superiority ? H itherto no machine has approached the silent working Wheeler and Wilson I n perfection of workmanship, rapidity of action, firmness and elasticity of stitch, N oiselessness of motion, perfect adaptation to every kind of work, E asiness of comprehension to the learner, -■ ' I ■/:.' lightness and elegance of appearance. S uch is the success which has attended the silent working Lock-stitch Machine. Cautwn. — Beware of Spurious Imitations of the Wheeler amd Wilson Machine.
