TITHEELER AND WILSON'S LOCK-ST£TCH SEWING MACHINES. REDUCED PRICES. AN ACROST 10. W' heeler and Wilson's Lock-Stitch Sewing Machines are still unrivalled, 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 superiority. ■••.-.■ 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, aud, though' cut in two, • t not R avel. — The Loi t Stftch is the distinguishing feature*, tbiir machines ; . „ A nd iv addition to the Lock-stitch they have recently introduced au 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 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 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 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." r £ very year has witnessed improvements in construction, and it has become W orld renowned. 1 n 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 ; G one through the hands of three competent engineers, and should any defect be found, it is immediately remedied. M ore than three hundred aud - twenty thousand of these machines have been sold, and the ' ; . . A nnual sale now amounts to the prodigi ou 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 oiselessivess of motion, perfect": adaptation to every kind of work, - - E asiness of comprehension to the learner, lightness and elegance of appearance. S uch is the success which has attended the silent working Lock-stitch Machine. Caption. — Beware 6t Spurious Imitations of the Wheeler amd Wilson Machlne.
