BEFORE PURCHASING, TEST THE FOR HAND AND FOOT. AMONG the innumerable makes and descriptions of SEWING MACHINES betore the Public, each claiming distinctive superiority, there are yet ONLY THREE Descriptions of STITCHES, viz. :•— 1. The CHArN (or Single Thread) Stitch. 2. The SHUTTLE (or, so-called, < Lock ") Stitch. 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 The Chain Stitch being superseded by the fast .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 'all the Machines advertised a_ " LockStitch " Machines, whether operating with a needle— as the Howe and tbe Sinprer, or with a needle, bobbin, and rotary hook, as the Wheeler & Wilson Machine — make the shuttle stitch and nothing else, and none of the infirmities of this stitch have been go. rid of by the assumption ofthe term " Lock-Stitch." The.GkO VER & BAKER Company (rot depreciating the shuttle-stitch for some purposes) manufacture Shuttle' Machines as well as the Grover and Baker or Elastic-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 kind, of will confirm the assertion that the Grover & Baker stitch, while possessing the elasticity which is deficient in the Shuttlestitch, is even more fast and durable and more worthy of the term " lock-stituh."
