TVTHEELER AND WILSON'S LOCK-STITCH SEWIXG 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 thac period many E nterprising firms have tried to supersede them. Yet they maintain their superiority. E very one admits that there is no Machine Htitcb 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( S itch is. the distinguishing feature i. tl. rir machines ; A nd in 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 Foed B.ar, 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 perftct 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 Univcrselle (1867) Wheeler and Wilson's Machines were acknowledged to lead the world in this branch of industry ; for out of no tos a number than eighty-two competitors they were the only tirai to whom a gold medal was awarded; thus "placing the Wheeler and Wilson," says the Art Journal, "at the head of all Sewing Machiue Manufacturers, both in Europe and America." E very year has witnessed improvements in construction, aad 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 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 m'»re 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, lirmnoss and elasticity of stitch, N oiselessues3 of motion, perfect adaptation to every kinO of work, E asiness of comprehension to the learner, lightness and elegauce of appearance. S uch is the success wluj'.i has attended the silent workinj Lock -stitch Machine.
