WEEELEE AND WILSON'S TJ LOCK-STITCH SEWING MACHINES. -- REDUCED PRICES. tl AN AC RO S TIC. is W heeler and "Wilson's Lbck-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 nc .them. Yet they maintain their super iority. : aB E very one admits that there is no Machine ad Stitch at all comparable to tho oy L ock-stitch, which is the firmest and neatest, has the Same appearance on ni E ach side of the material sewn, and, though cut in two, f not p Ravel. — TheLo< S'-ftch is the distinguish- ■"" ing feature c th-iiv machines ; re A nd in addition to the Lockstitch they **' have recently introduced au important ] 0 yet perfectly ' . N ovel feature, which, not only performs w Ornamental Sewing, but also the most co D elicate Embroidery. Their machines will vow stitch, hem, foil, gather, tuck, *° bind, cord, qnilt, trim, braid, embroider, . and in facb will accomplish every kind T] 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 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 p 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 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 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 and America." E very year has witnessed improvements in construction, and it has become : W orld renowned. In order to ensure accuracy of finish and perfection of oi 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 nv>re be said to convince the most sceptical of their superiority f H ibherto no machine has approached the silent working Wheeler and Wilson 1 n perfection of workmanship, rapidity of action, firmness and elasticity of stitch, N oiselesskess of motion, perfect adaptation to every kind of work, , E asiuess of comprehension to the learner, : lightness and elegance of appearance. Such is the success wnich has attended the silent working Loc k-stitch Machine. . Caution.— Beware of Spurious lmifcations . of the Wheels amd Wilson Maohinb. : LONG and CO,, !
