BEFORE PURCHASING, TEST THE CELEBRATED PREMIUM FOR HAND AND FOOT. , A"M ONG the innumerable makes and i\. descriptions of SEWING MACHINES betore the Public, each claiming distinctive 'superiority, there are yet ONLY THREE Descriptions of STITCHES, viz. :— 1. The CHAIN (or Single Thread) Stitch. 2; The SHUTTLE (or, so-called, l « Lock") Stitch. . , S. The " Graver and Baker " ELASTIC STITCH. . r The Chaia Stitch being superseded by the fast and permanent work of the two last • described, it has to Ye further explained that ; aiij; the Machines advertised as " LockStitch "Machines, whether operating with a needle— as the Howe and the Singer, or with a needle, bobbin, 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 " Lock-Stitch." The GROVEK & BAKER Company (not depreciating the shuttle-stitch for some pur- . poses') manufacture Shuttle-Machines as well ;as the Grover and Baker or Elastie-Stit h Machines, but they recommend the latter as unequalled for 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 oi both kinds of sewing will confirm the assertion that the . Grover & Baker stitch, while possessing the elasticity which is deficient in the Shuttlestitch, iB even more fast and durable and more | -worthy of the term " lock-stitch."
