THE FRIEND OF WOMAN.
E. 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 Within the Reach f Every Faoiily.
PRICE $35.
Hemmer, Feller, Binder A Tucking guuge, combined, $5.
THE reputation of this Machine is now fully establish
ed as the mnxt reliable Machine in the 111:1 rket for
family use, and has been attested too by thousands of the
most respectable families in the Union.
This Machine makes the celebrated " Doable 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 anil needles to adopt it to the character of the
work to lie sewed—coarse or fine as the case may be. It
will sew gauge laces, and all varieties and kinds of fab
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
much.
A perfect Sewing Machine, one making a stitch an
swering all the requirements oftlic family,sowing coarse
and line work equally well, was the great desideratum of
the home circle, previous to the invention of EDWIN
CLARK'S RKVOI.VINO LOOTER. The stitch is lieautiful,
trong, and elastic, and will not rip in wear or iu 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 lew :
