Hemmer, Feller; Binder & Tacking guage, combined, $5.
THE reputation of this Machine is now fully establish
ed as the mast reliable Machine in the market for
family use, and has been attested too by thousands of the
most respectable families in the Union.- -
This Machine makes the celebrited "Double Lock
Stitch," the only one made by machinery that meets all
the requirements of Family Sewing. Each stitch is tied
twice, so that every one is securely fastened and wholly
independent of all the other stitches for strength, so that
U the seam is cat or every fourth stitch broken, the sew
ing must hold good while the fabric will, wear. The
machinery which makes this stitch Is a marvel of sim
plicity, requiring no mechanical skill to mintage.% nor
does it require adjustment more than the mere change of
thread and needles to adopt it 10 the character of the
work to be sewed--coarse or tine as the case may be. It
will sew gauze laces, and all varieties and kinds of fah.
rice between and including heavy beaver cloth, without
changing either needles or thread equally well, and re
turn to either variety of work, with perfect satisfaction.
No other Machine ever offered to the public will do as
much.
A perfect Sewing Machine, one making a stitch an
swering all the requirements of the famlly.sewing coarse
and finework equally well, was the great desideratum of
the home circle, previous to the invention of EDWIN
CLARK'S REVOLVING Loom. The stitch Is beautiful,
trong, and elastic. and will not rip in wear or in acci
dental breaking a thread.
Every Machine is warranted to give satisfaction or the
money refunded.
We have a large list of references but will give the
names of only a few :
Mr. B. P. Straw—Sir : I have used for the last three
months in my Tailor-Shop, one of " Raymond's Latest
