BEFORE PURCHASING, TEST THE FOR HAND AND FOOT. . A ~M,O N G the innumerable makes and /3u descriptions of SEWING MACHINES before .the Public, each claiming distinctive superiority, 'Mere are yet ONLY THREE Descriptions of STITCHES, viz. :— - --* I. 'The CHAIN (or Single Thread) Stitch. 2 ' The!SHDTTLE (or, so-called, " Lock ») Stitch. r . 3. The "Grover and Baker '' ELASTIC STITCH. The Chain Stitch being superseded by the fast and permanent work of the two last described, it has to he further explained that ,ALii the . Machines, as " Lock- : Stijicti !'*' Machines, whether operating with a needle— as the TIo we and the Singer, or with ' a needle, bobbin 1 / and rotary hook, as the Wheeler & Wilson Machine — make the shut-tle-stitch and nothing else, and none of the infirmities of this stitch have been got rid of by the. assumption of the term " LockrStitch." .The GROVER &JBAKER Company (rot depreciating .the , shuttleTStitch^ for .some purposes) manufacture Shuttle-Machines as well an the Grover and Baker or Elaatic-Stit ;h Machines, but they recommend the latter as unequalled tor family work, or for those kinds of work where strength as well as beauty of stitch* are required, 'and particularly for any materials which are to be washed and ironed. A comparison of a Seam of both kinds of seeing, will\ confirm, the . assertion that the Gr6yer.& Baker 'stttch, while 'pbsses'ing the elasticity which is deficient in the Shuttlestitch, is even more fast and durable and more worthy of the term " lock-stitch."
