OINCE the introduction of Hand Setting Machines, attempts have constantly been made to prove that they are fit to supersede the original Treadle Machines, hut intending purchasers are requested to examine the matter and 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 can be sustained by faots. " , The advertiser submits that each kind of machine is good in its proper pl*ce, — the " Hand " for those young, ladies who may have occasion frequently to . change their plica of abode, or for those who are unable to give the small amount of time and trouble necessary, to learn thoroughly tbe art (once acquired, of life Jong value), of using «! " Treadle " Machine, and also for the very few who are physically unable to use the toot motion. ! But when the lady of tha house de«| sires to do a large quantity of sewing io the best manner, and io the least possible time, r - j A good Treadle Machine is unequalled. i That the use of the feet in sewing is injurious to. health is a matter upon which tbe " Dootors differ," and anj? lady anxious upon that poiae would dd well to consult her own medical adviser] who, ia giving hia opinion, would per< haps make some slight distinction between the probable effects of using a Machine which requires much power to drive it, and one which runs lightly^ as does the " Wheeler and WiLsoN. I The undersigned invites inspection of his stock of Machines suitable for all ordinary work, and will be happy 46 procure to order from best makers Machines required for special purpoees. A new lot of HAND MACHINES to arrive per * Luteerwortb,' direct from the makers, comprising both "Taylor's Improved," aud "Tatlor's Friction Wheel." HAND MACHINES sold for Cash, and TREADLE MACHINES either for Cash or for " time payment," and Prices are now Reduced I \ W. C. WILKINS, IRONMONGER, BEIDOE-STKEET, NELSONJ August, 1876, 2800
