WANTED KNOWN, that MISS PENNAL has much pleasure in in troducing to the public of Auckland the Most Useful Lock-stitch Sewing Machine ever yet imported : • PRINCESS OF WALES: | This admirable Machine is the most perfect Lock ! stitch jtf*chine yet invented. It is so simple that the most inexperienced can operate it without any previous instruction, while it is incapable of derange ment by'ordinary use. The range of application is practically unlimited : anything that can be worn or require stitching in a house can be executed on this j Machine. The tension rarely requires regulating. I From muslin to dressed calico, woollen cloth, or even ; leather may be sewn without chango of needle or I cotton, or alteration of tension The work is easily guided by one hand, while the other is employed in turning it. When fixed on a stand it can be operated by hand or foot at pleasure, and it is then as efficient as the most costly treadle machine. Besides all kinds of domestic use, it can be applied to many varieties of manufacturing use, such as dress-making, mantle making, stay-making, and tailoring. ENGLAND'S QUEfiN. This remarkable Machine presents some entirely new features never before realised in a Sewing Machine, and making it more extensively useful and more varied in its application than any other Sewing Machine whatever, whether hand or treadle. In .its application to pLin sewing of every kind it exactly resemb.es the Princess of Wales, but it it can be instantly changed without stopping the Machine to herring-bone stitching and to oversearii'ing. This is effected by .simply turning a screw, and the width and length of the stitch are regulated at pleasure. The arrangement permits of the overseaming or herring-boning of any fabric whatever, and will be found of immense value in the manufacture of children's clothing and in ornamental work. It jeinas where elasticity is required the stitch of this Machine is superior to every existing Machine. It is important to observe that all these advantages are obtained with the most perfect simplicity of construc tion. tf-TNote the address :-MISS PFINNAL, Dress, Mantle-maker, and Machinist, West End HoUb_ ~IVAK_FJR_D STltliE?.
