TI^HEELER AND WILSON'S LOCK-STITCH SEWING MACHINES. REDUCED~PRICES. AN ACROSTIC. W heeler and Wilson's Lock-Stitch Sewing Machines are still uorivalled, although they H ave been before the public nearly twenty years. During that period many E nterprising firms have tried to supersede them. Yet they maintain their snpe* riority. ■ E very one admits that there is no Machin Stitch at all comparable to the L ock-stitch, which is the firmest and neatest, has the same appearance on E ach side of the material sewn, and, though cnt in two, will not " • R aveL— The Lock Stitch is the distinguishing feature of their 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, bat 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 desirable effect of rendering their S ewing Machines Silent-working ! , This entirely removes what was formerly considered an 0 bjection to the introduction of a Sewing Machine into ladies' apartments. ; N othingnow remains to be accomplished in order toj render the ..•■:- '■/ 8 ilent-working Lock-stitch Sewing Machine the most perfect instrument in the market, as numerous testimonials attest. A pamphlet, containing * 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 oh ' these machines. In. ParisV at the Exposition Uhiverselle (1867) Wheeler and Wilson's Machines were acknowledged to lead the world in this branch of industry ; for out of no leas a number than eighty-two competitors they were the only firm to whom a gold medal ■was awarded; thus "placing the Wieeler 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 to construction, and it has become W orld renowned. • ,-• In order to ensure accuracy of finish and perfection of ot workmanship, ■ ■ • N ot a single machine is allowed to leave the manufactory till it has „ .-■■ Qt one through the hands of three competent' engineers, and should any defect be found, it Js 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 ! • ;rf 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 1 n perfection of workmanship, rapidity, of action, nrmness and elasticity of stitch, N oiselesaaesa of motion, perfect adaptation to ©rery kind of work, ; E aaness oi comprehension Ut the learner, iigbtness and elegance of appearaDce, S uch is the success which has attended the silent working Lock-stitch Machine.
