I This admirable Machine is the most perfect Lock stitch Machine yet invented. It is so simple that the most inexperienced can operate it without any previous instruction, while it is.incapable of derangc j 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 ; Machine. The tension rarely requires regulating, i From muslin to dressed calico, woollen cloth, or even I leather may be sewn without change of needle or • cotton, or alteration of tension. The work is easily i guided by one hand, while the other is employed in j turning it. When fixed on a stand it can be operated I by hand or foot at pleasure, and it is then ks efficient !as the most costly treadle machine. Besides all kinds I of domestic use, it can be applied to many varieties of ' manufacturing use, such as dress-making, mantle . making, stay-making, and tailoring. ENGLVNTTS QUJSBN. This remarkable Machine presents some entirely new features never before realised in a Sowing Machine, and making it more extensively useful and more varied in its application than any other Sewing j Machine whatever, whether hand or treadle. In its j application to pi in sewing of every kind it exactly I resembles the Piincuss of Wales, but it it can be I instantly changed without stopping the Machine to | hci-nng-boae stitching and to oversearning. This : is effected by simp)}' turning a screw, and the width ) and length of the stitch ma regulated at pleasure. i The arrangement permits of the ovorsoaming or i herring-boning of any fabric whatever, and will be | found of immense value in the manufacture of ; children's clothing and in ornamental work. ]J| i seims where elasticity is required the stitch of this | Machine is superior to every existing Machine. It is j important to observe that all these advantages are | obtained with the most perfect simplicity of consttuc- I tion. a^-Note the arldiess:-MISS PKNNAL, Dress.
