TI^HEELER AND WILSON'S 1 LOCK-STITCH SEWING MACHINES. EEDUCED PPJCES. AN ACROSTIC. W heeler and Wilson's Lock-Stitch Sewiug Machines are still unrivalled, although they H ave been before the public nearly twenty years. During that period many E nter prising firms have tried to supersede them. Yet they' maintain their superiority. E very one admits that there is no Machiu 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 cut in two, f not R avel.— The Lo< Stitch is the distinguishing feature c. tliiir machiues ; 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, but also the most D elicate Embroidery. Their machines w.ill 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 J. udiviilual who requires a Sewing Machine to the Silent Feed Bar, their L atest improvement, which has bad the desirable effect of rendering their S ewing _ Machines Silent-working ! This entirely removes what was formerly considered au 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 instruraeut in the market, as numerous testimonials attest. A pamphlet, containing a few of these, ( with a description nf 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 Wilsou'a Machines- were acknowledged to lead the world in this branch of industry ; for out of no less a number thau 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 has witnessed improvements in construction, and it has become W orld renowned. 1 n order to ensure accuracy of finish and perfection of ot workmanships K 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 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 oonvince 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 etifceh, i N oiselessuess of motion, perfect adaptation [ to every kind of work, E asiness of comprehension to the learner, lightness and elegauce of appearance. S uch is the success which has attended the silent working Lock-stitch Machine. Caution. — Beware of Spurious Imitations of the Wheeler amd Wilson Machine.
