Sewing Machines. NOT EOR AN AGE, BUT FOR ALL TIME! THE WORLD-RENOWNED QINGER JEWING "VTACHINE SEWS THE FINEST MUSLINS, and HEAVIEST CLOTHS. Easy to Learn. A Child can Work it. NEW AND VALUABLE IMPROVEMENTS. por the " New Family, " and " Medium," Machines. THE TRIPLE ACTION BALANCE WHEEL. This patented improvement adds a new fs?tu- -> of excellence to these popular Machines. Some of the advantages are as follow :- 1. It enables the inexperienced to suspend the motion of the Machine while learning the treadle action. 2. If the learner starts the treadle motion in the wrong direction, it will not work the Machine, but as soon is it takes the right direction it puts the Machine in motion 3. When winding shuttle-bobbins the action of the Machine is suspended, preventing disarrangements of the threads and unnecessary wear. This Mechanical principle on which Singer's Machines are built can hardly be improved, and as a proof of this it need only be said that it is about the only Machine imitators have endeavored to copy, not only in America, but alao in Great Britain and the Continent of Europe. The legal proceedings against Kimball and Morton, Newton Wilson and Co., and Friater and Rossman, are well-known. The case of Newton and Wilson was carried before the Howe of Lords. The Singer Co. won. The action against Frister and Rossman (a German firm), occupied the Superior Courts seventeen days last year. The decision was altogether in favor of the Singer Company. Since that trial no Sewing Machine Manufacturers or Dealers are permitted to use the name " Singer " in connection with the sty's, ma c, or sa'e of any Machine except those of the Singer Manufacturing Company's OWN MAKB. BEWARE OF PERSONS who having no good trade repute of their own, use our name " SINGER," to palm off Counterfeit Machines of Inferior Construction and Manufacture, Every SINGER MACHIN S has the Company's name printed upon the Arm, and impressed upon the Brass Tiade-mark Plate.

KNOWLES IS THE APPOINTED AGENT FOR TUB NEW WHITE, HORIZONTAL, FEED, NOISELESS, EASY RUNNING, (And wit! out fear of contradiction) THE BEST OF ALL KNOWN OEWLNG TiTACHINES This, the latest c'aitnant for tho the position o " Cheapest and Besr in the world *' is to be seena*. the Warehouse of Mr E. W. Kno.vms, Hastings-street, and unqup/Monably the many ingenious points displayed in the construction render it well worth examining. Asa mrtterof fact the horizontal feed is common to many machines, and the term hrs therefore no Bigniacaf on of importance. But in the White macl me there is this marked improvement on many other varieties—that the feed plate acts on either side of tbe need?e. In other words, the work is pushed a)ong as if by two fingers instead ol oae. Obv'ously this tends to produce ve.-y even results, aod it enables the operator t) tew a'on * the right or left edje of tbe fabric at pleasure. At tt c same time, tlse arm of the machine is at a more thanordi nary height above the te.ble, and tbe pie sa T e-Coot also has a liberal amount o*. play giren to it by the aid of a well-contrived spring. A large man ol material -jould tberefo-e be passed over tbe wo 'k. table, ard through tbe nmchine, without l.'ie remotest chance of "rjjjty. oie ecti-e mcc' a - r"sm is of tbe moat siroe'e character and so \l, tie fi'ic ion is there that one may run tbe rrr,c' if e—a'moii wi>- llout bein<r conscious of tbe fact. Wren m:iu part of the machine is rot requ' ed to be rr i— as, for instance, when Si Jitt'e bobbirsn o to be wout-d —a ILi/e spring is thrown back, a?d tV c sewing_ mechanism is thereby dicconoeced from tho drrlng gear. Fmvber, when any given berr'nj may in the course of jme become worn, the mc"c turning o? a screw effects a refitting of the frc/on surface • Oj.e spec'al'.y hijer'ous contrivance is displayed in tho tension tbe There are no holes to be threaded, as is commo r 'y the case; hut the thread beiDg woond ia and out d: a fe.v g_ oovei, a little steel plate pops down, ard by the action of a spring which can be made 1 gilt or heavy at will, keeps just the desired strain on the under thread. The tension for the upper thread is also automa 'c. The machines are now on vie;v, and an inspection is respectfully colicited, when Price Msts, eta, and fuller particulars can bo obtained at E. W. KNOWLES, Gbnbeal Mebohant hastings strekt, NAPim.
