Every make of Machine, however far removed from excellence, professes to be better than _ any other The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefore rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser has no knowledge of machines, and has no other guide than the representation of various dealers. Many people convinced of the advantage to De derived from using a Machine for needlework do not yet possess one because among so many they are unable to satisfy themselves as to which make is the best. As a practical man and an Engineer allow me to point out some of the advantages of these Machines. They will do all that any other Machine will, and do it better, including Hemming. Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c, &c , with a perfect stitch alike on both sides. They are fitted with an improved BREAK, which prevents the Machine turning the wrong way, and so entangling and breaking the thread. They make less noise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. They are very simple, and Will run for years without costing a shilling lor repairs. Every Machine is Warranted. Machines let out on hire, the payment for which gops towards the purchase. Machines of other makers taken in ex change. Repairs properly done.
