FASCINATION
Have you ever experienced the delight of effertlass sewing,
wd while you pressed you feet slightly en the controller, watched
the fabric glide mugically beneath the needle?
Have you known the joy of silent sewing, se noiseless that
one could rend aloud te you while you sew7
That is what the Electric Automatic does for you, and there is
no bobbin te run out in the midst of the seam. There is no tension
w adjust, for it automatically adjusts itself, while the seam it
mukes is unexcelled in beauty nnd strength.
ieu can sew upstairs or down, or en the perch, for it is
PORTABLE. Tf. pfin hn rnrrlnrl with nnn hnnrt.
H is the result of sixty years' experience, nnd is the Willcox &
WD3 Sewing Machine Company's latest gift te womanhood.
