Clark's Revolving Looper DOUBLE THREADED FAMILY SEWING MACHINE The Revolving Looper is a late improvement on Ray mond's Latest Improved.) Warranted the best in the world for Family Use ! Price Wilhiii the Reach of Every Family. PRICE $35. . Hemmer, Feller, Binder & Tucking guage, combined, $5. TIIE reputation of this Machine is now fully establish ed as the most reliable Machine t'n the market for family use, and has been attested too by thousands of the i most respectable families in the Uuion. This Machine makes the celebrated " 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 if the seam Is cut 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 manage it, nor , does it require adjustment more than the mere change of thread and neeules to adopt it to the character of the ■ work to be sewed—coarse or fine as the case may be. It i will sew gauze laces, and all varieties and kinds of fab -1 rics 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 1 much. s A perfect Sewing Machine, one making a stitch nn ' sweriug all the requirements of the family, sewing coarse - and fine work equally well, was the great desideratum of 1 the home circle, previous to the invention of EDWIN • CLANK'S REVOLVING LOOPER. The stitch is beautiful, trong, and elastic, and xeill not rip in wear or in acci ■ dental breaking a thread. i Every Machine is warranted to give satisfaction or the an icy refunded.
