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 Machine 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, p not E avel.!— The Lo( SHtch is, the. distinguish-. ing feature c tb tir machines ; A ncl in addition to tbe Loek-9titph they have recently introduced an important yet perfectly N oveL feature, which not only performs | .; ; Ornamental Sewing, but also the most D elieafe 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 especiaUyitocall the attention of every I ndivif-lual 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 bjeeiiion to the inbroduebion 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 eveniy Prize Medals have already been bestowed in all parts of the world on these 1 machines^ In Paris, at the Exposition Universelle (ISG7) 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 th^. head Of all Sewing Machine Manufacturers, both in Europe and America." E very year has witnessed improvements in j ..-, construction, and it has become W orld renowned. 1 v 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 Gone 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 6v>re be said to convince the most sceptical of their superiority ? H itherto no machine has approached the Bilent working Wheeler and Wilson In perfection of workmanship, rapidity of '•'.;" action, firmness and elasticity of stitch, N oiselessuess of motion, perfect adaptation to every kind of work, E asiness of comprehension to the learner, lightness and elegance o{ appearance. S uchis the success, wljich has attended the silent working Lock-stitcl^Machiue. Caution. — Beware, of Spuiip^e- Imitations of the Wheeler amd Wilson Machine.
