Every make of Machine, however far removed fron excellence, professes to be better than any other The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefon rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser ha: no knowledge of machines, and has no other guid< than the representation of various dealers Many people convinced of the advantage to b< derived from usinsf a Machine for needlework do noi yet possess one because among so many they ar< 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, A=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 arc very simple, and _ will run for years without costing a shilling for repairs. Every Machine is Warranted. Machines let out on hire, tho payment for which goes towards the purchase. Machines of other makers taken in ex change. Repairs properly done.
