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 tbe seam Is cut or everv tourth stitch broken, the sew? ing must hold good while the fabric will wear. XL# 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 needles to adopt it to the character of the work to be sewed—coarse or fine as the case may be. It will sew gauae iaces, and ail 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, j No other Machine ever offered to the public will do a* ' much. i A perfect Sewing Machine, one making a stitch an i s wen rig all the requirements of the family, sewing coarse and fine work equally well, was the great desideratam of the home circle, previous to the invention of Enwm CLARK'S REVOLVING LOOPKR.
