Sewing Machines. TAYLOE'S PATENT LOOK STITCH SEWING MACHINES Are, with confidence, recommended to the public not only as containing Important Improvements but also as being constructed throughout m the most substantial manner possible. They make the Lock-stitch by means of a shuttle Working in an Elliptic Direction in such a position hfttUU • easily srcessiblo, ard where its action can besasily ffjf'sis rknowledged on all hands to be the most V noiseless Shuttle movement ever invented. These Machines have obtained distinction at 1 the more recent competitions, and have been awarded FIVE PRIZE MEDALS. AoiJ ct :— T. PEACOCK, OPTICIAN.

BEWINGr MACHINES MADE BY THE BRITANNIA COMPANY, COLCHESTER, ENGLAND, combine the best parts of the best Machines (avoiding their defects) with some recent special improvements, which no other Machine possesses. Every make of Machine, however farjremoved from excellence, professes to be better than any other. The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefore rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser has no knowledge of machines, and has no other guide than the representation of various dealers. Many people convinced of the advantage to be derived from using a Machine for needlework do not yet possess one because among so many they are unable to satisfy tliemso/ves as to which make is the best. As a practical man and an Engineer allow me to point out some cf the advantages of these Machines. They will 6o all that any other Machine will, and do it better, iccluding Hemmipg, Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c., &c, with a perfect stitch alike on both aides. They are fitted with nn improved break, which prevents the Machine turning the wrong way, and so entangling and breaking the thread. They make less noise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. They are very simple, and will run for years without costing a shilling for repairs. Every Machine is Warranted. Machines let out on hire, tho payment for which goes towards the purchase. Machines of other makers taken in exchange. Repairs properly done.
