\Tf IIBELER- ASP WILSOX'3 ■ LOCK-STITUH SEWING MACHINES. REDUCED PRICES. .•• A^£j\ A & R QJ3 T I 0. W heeler and Wilson's Lock-Stitch Sowing Machines are still unrivalled, although they H ave bceu before the public nearly twenty years. During tbau pcrio.l many Enterprising firms have trio-l to supersede them. Yet they maintain their superiority. E very one admits that there is no Machine Stitch at all comparable to tbe 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, t not R avel. — The Loc Stitch is the distinguishing feature t. tli cir machines ; 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 clicate Embroidery. Their macbiues 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 ndiviilual who requires a Sewing Machine to the Silent Feed Bar, their L atest improvement, which has had the desirable effect of rendering their S ewiug Machines Silent-working ! This entirely removes what was formerly considered an 0 bjectton to the introduction of a Sewing Machine into ladies' apartments. N otbing now remains to be accomplished iv 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, it 9 construction and mode of working, aud 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 aud 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 workmanship, N ot a single machine is allowed to leave the manufactory till it has G one through the hands of three competent enginecTS, 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 j A nnual sale now amounts to the prodigiou number of over 60,000 ! C an mire 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 oiselessness of motion, perfect adaptation to every kinol 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. Caution. — Beware of Spurious Imitations of the Wheeler amd Wilson Machine.
