G NCE the introduction of Hand Sewing Machines, attempts have constantly been made to prove that they are fit to supersede the original Treadle Machines, but intending purchasers are requested to examine the matter and decide for themselves whether their claims are well founded, and whether also tbe objections raised (frequently by inter* ested parties) to the use of the Treadle can be sustained by facts. Tbe advertiser submits that each kind of machine is good in its proper place, — tbe " Hand " for those young ladies who may have occasion fiequently to change tbeir place of abode, or for those who are unable to give the small amount of time and trouble necessary to learn thoroughly the art (once acquired, of life long value), of using a "Treadle Machine, aud also for the very few who are physically unable to use the loot motion. But when the lady of the house desires to do a large quantity of sewing in tho best manner, and iv the least possible time, A good Treadle Machine is unequalled. That the use of the feet in sewing is injurious to health ia a matter upon which tbe " Doctors differ," and aoy lady anxious upon tbat point would do well to consult her own medical adviser, who, in giving his opinion, would perhaps make some slight distinction between tbe probable effects ol using a Machine which requires much power to drive it, and one which runs lightly, as does tbe " Wheeler and Wilson. The undersigned invites inspection of bis stock of Machines suitable for all ordinary woik, and wil! be happy to procure to order from best makers Machines required for special purposes, A new lot of HAND MACHINES to arrive per * Lutterworth,' direct from the makers, comprising both "Taylor's Improved," and "Tatlok's Friction Whe ex." HAND MACHINES sold for Cash, and TREADLE MACHINES either for Cash or for " time payment," and Prices are now Reduced ! W. C. WILKINS, IRONMONGER, BRIDGE-STREET, NELSON. August, 1876.- 2880
