The demand in oonseqence has constantly and rapidly increased. Many of the appliances are nos possessed by any other Machines whatever, and we desire especially oomparieoa aide by side* Tflß WONDEBFOL WEETHBM. With the WEBTHEIM New Famfls Machine, whether for hand or foot use, ye* can hem any width, make double seams or fells, kilt, braid, stitch with ohenille, Berlie wool, or gold cord, and such Uko for fancy work i you may make a pretty lace ehtdh. tuck ever so finely, bind dresses, coatsTe* carpets; sew on trimmings without guiding., make frilling, ruffling or ruoMatv quilt, weave your own braid, with any combination of colon, and etdtoh it on eft the same time 2 make thick woollen door* mats, embroidered antimacaeaan, window curtains, and so forth 1 you can easily aad rapidly perform the fashionable shirrin* and gathering so popular for sleevea, bodieo or akirts of dresses with an appliance rapplied gratis. Lay the small cords in hoods and stays j do large cording; gather with or without a band, and generally do all kinds of straight eewingnpon any material' whatever. The WEBTHEIM will pass from eight folds of tweed or wenty at calico to two of thinnest muslin, or even musquito net or tulle, without the operator changing needle, cotton, etitch, or tendofi,' end the fine material will not be gatherea • in the slightest. Any of these performances will be shown at our shops at anytime. The WEBTHEIM makes a loctotitoh which cannot ravel, yet by a momentary alteration the sewing can be done so as to rip from end to end, if desired. ThY peculiarity is sometimes useful when children's clothes are intended to be altered; ~u We have a special word for husbandev V When the day's buaine&e ia over, the even*"*' i ing meal is finished, the wife—and perhaps V •> the sister or daughter—sits down to he* sewing. With her hands alone she cannot* as aforesaid, do anything like the whole of :: the work required. In a corner of the room is. oerhaps, an old-faahioned maohiae, irftb ■ which she may, by hard driving, occarionally stitch—with a noise like a sausage machine—a simple straight seam, but thafr is no great help. She ought to be able to do ALL the work with it, short of etitching on buttons, which iaa trifle. And wehave known some instances whore the lajjn of the house is so anxious to obtain a first* ; - class machine, that which will be the greatest of all her helps to her, but thehusband demurs on the score of expense. Why, it is the only article of ' the household furnishing which will ereafi return yon any part of its cost. If the ladf',:' will use it, it MUST earn far more tha»> the half-crown a week necessary to purchase it. On one little garment she will save that sum, so that in addition to increased comfort, your household flxpeneee will not be enlarged, but -ought tolbe diminished by the possession of a WBS THEIM Machine. Bow often do we not waste money upon really useless knfck* knacks, or upon needlessly expensive articles ox indulgences P The Hacbigt: should far more than pay for itself dmiaf ' the time you are clearing it off, and ittfli ' then become your own, earning orsavisf money aa before.

A balance-wheel is provided, so that the works are at rest while the bobbins tie being wound. Tou can put eighty yards of cotton on one bobbin, being nearly twice ac much as you can with the' machine tof the-old-fashioned makee. Thus you need not > take out your shuttle so often, and you get , a far more perfect etitoh. The tables are beautifully finished, and' are stamped with a yard measure, which is useful. A host of other improvements iathe WKBTHEIM NKW FAMILY MA. CHINES will be observed.
