THE BEST FAMILY SEWING MACHINE in the world. It comprises all the good points and combines n\ that is valuable in the whole of them, besides wmch it has many important advantages possessed by. no other machine. THE REVERSIBLE FEED enables the operator to sew either way; fasten to ends of seams without^tSppinXor turning the work% y' \ IT HAS THE/SELF - ADJUSTING • y SHJHTLE TENSION. [T MAKES FOUR KINDS OF STITCHES THE SAVING OF THREAD over machines making the chain or em- • broidery stitch will in one year be more than , the cost ol the machine. THE LOCK STITCH, compared with the chain stitch, is less clumsy —is less liable to be washed or ironed off, and ; does not, like 'the latter, form a network to retain dirt. ; , THE EXACT AND POSITIVE MOTION of every part, with no uncertain Bprings or ! .brush pads, renders it almost impossible for a \ Florence Machine to get out of order, and • j enables even an ordinary operator to use it i successfully. : IT USES THE SAME SIZE THREAP on both sides, and both Bides of the seam are .alike. . - " 1 THAT IT IS THE BEST, is evidenced by the fact that of the thousands sold itt'the United Kingdom during the past I 't^OiyearvnoJieg^?;^* 19 *^ B ** o^ ol1 ' 'fifteen articles and one dozen .
