THE BIND, QtNCE the introduction of Hand Sewing Machines, attempts have constantly been made to prove that tbey are fit to supersede the original Treadle Machines, but intending purchasers are requesled to examine the matter aud decide for themselves whether their claims are well founded, and whether also the objections raised (frequently by interested parties) to the use of the Treadle oan be sustained by facts. The advertiser eubmitß that each kind of machine is good in its proper place, — the " Hand " for those young ladies who may have occasion, frequently to change their place of abode, or for those who are unable to give the small amount of time nod trouble necessary to learn thoroughly the art (once acquired, of life long value), of using a "Treadle" Machine, and also for the very few who are physically unable to übo the toot motion. But when the lady of the house desires to do a large quantity of sewing in the best manner, and in the least possible time, A good Treadle Machine is unequalled. That the use of the feet in sewing is injurious to health is a matter upon which the " Doctors differ," and any lady anxious upon that poin.t would do well to consult her own medical adviser, who, in giving his opinion, would perhaps make some slight distinction between the probable effects ot U6ini» a Machine which requires much power to drive it, and v <one which runs lightly, as does the " Wheeler and Wilson* The undersigned invites inspection of his stock of Machines suitable for all ordinary work, and will be happy to procure to order from best makers Machines required for special purposes.
