YTTfIEELER AND WILSON'S LOOK-STITCH SEWING MACHINES. REDUCED PRICES. AN ACROSTIC. 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 o.ck-stitch, which is the firmest and neatest, has the same appearance on E ach side of the material sewn, and, though cut in two, r not R avel.— The Lo< t Sfcitch is the distinguishing feature «. tLlir machines ; A nd in addition to the Lock-stitch they have recently introduced an important yet perfectly ' N over 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 oE every j I ndividuai who requires a Sewing Machine to the Silent Feed Bar, their j L atest Improvement, which has had the de- j . sirabie 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.Maqhine the most perfect instrument in the market, as numerous ' testimonials attest. A pamphlet, containing a few of these, with a description »o£. 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 ledged 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 haswitne^sed improvements in construction, and it has become W orld renowned. 1 n order to ensure accuracy of finish and perfection of ot workmanship, N ofr 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 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 r 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 oiselessi*ess of motion, perfect adaptation to 6very kind of work, E asiuess of comprehension to the learner, lightness and elegance of appearance. S uch is the .success which has .attended the silent working Lock-stitch Machine.-
