ing of thread ; they Hem, Fell, Gather, and Rtieh in a
superior style, finishing each seam by their own opera- '
tion, without recourse to the hand-needle, as is required '
by other machines. They will d<- letter and cheaper
sewing than a seamstress, "even if she works for one cent
an honr, and are, unquestionably. the t>est Machines in
the market for family sewing, on account of their simpli
city, durability, ease of management, and adaption to all
varieties of family sewing—executing either heavy or tine
work with equal facility, and without special adjustment.
As evidence of the unquestioned superiority of their
