XXTHEELETI AND WILSON'S LOCK-STITUH SEWING MACHINES. . REDUCED PRICES, . AN ACROS Tj 0. W heeler and Wilson's Lock-Stitch Sewing Machines are Btlll unrivalled, although they H ave been : before the public nearly twenty years. During that period many E n'oerprising firms . have tried to supersede them.' Yet they maintain their, superiority.: • . '•. ;> E very one admits that there is no Machin Stitch at all comparable to the L ock-stitch, which isthe firinesfc and neatest, has the same appearance on E ach side of the 'uaterial sewn, and, though cut in two, f hot .. • ■ R avel. — The Lo< is tfre distinguishing feature c tl ;ir machines ; . A ndin addition to the Lockstitch they have recently introduced 1 an important yet perfectly ; . , . ■. , N ovel feature, which riot only performs Ornamental Sewing, but also the most D elicate Embroidery. Their machiues wi'l 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 S ewing -Machines Silent-working ! This; entirely removes' 'what was formerly considered an ... . . 0 bjeefcion to the introduction of a Sewing Machine into ladies' apartments. N othing now remains to be accomplished in order to render the S ilent-working Lock-stitch Sewing Machine the most perfect instrument in the market, as numerous testimonials attest. A pamplilet, containing a ie^ 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 iUniverselle (1(867) WiKfeler and Wilson's Machines -were acknow- . . ledged to lead tbf world in this branch;' Of industry ; for out of no iess a numbeii than eighty-two competitors they were tlie only .firm to whom a gold medal was awarded; thus "placing the .
