Every make of Machine, however far removed from excellence, professes to be better than any other. Tho task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefore rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser lias 1 no knowledge of machine's, and has no other guide than tlie representation of various dealers Many vieople convinced of the advantage to be 1 derived from usins a Machine for needlework do not yet possess one because among bo many they are unable to satisfy themselves as to which make is the best. As a practical nun and an Engineer allow me to 7>oint out some of the advantages of these Machines. They will, do all that any other Machine will, and do it belter, including Hemming. Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding; Stitching, &c, «fee , with a perfect stitch alike on both sides. They are fitted with an improvrd jsheak, which prevents the Machine turninp the wronp way, and so ■jnlangling and breaV.ing the thread. They make less woise than most Ma chines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. They are very simple, and will run for. yer.rs without editing a shilling for repairs.
