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 theaaterial sewn, and, though cut in two, f not R ave].— Tlie Lot Stitch is the distinguishing feature 0 tbfir machines ; A nd in addition to the Lock-stitch they have recently introduced au important yet perfectly N ovel feature, wiiich 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 intact will accomplish every kind of worn 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 ■ • 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 applicationT" S eventy Prize Medals have already been bestowed in all parts of the world oh 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^; ior 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.", .
