Sewing Machines. NOT FOR AN AGE, BUT EOR ALL TIME! THE WORLD-RENOWNED QIINGER QEWING 1%/TACHINE SEWS THE FINFST 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 feature 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, hut as soon \a 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 tbe only Machine imttators have endeavored to copy, not only in America, but also in Great Britain and the Continent of Europe The legal proceedings against Kimball and Morton, Newton Wilson and Co., and Frister and Rossman, are well-known. The case of Newton and Wilson was carried before the Houee of Lords. The Singer Co. won. The action against Frister and Rossman (a German * firm), occupied the .superior Courts seventepn 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 style, ma c, or sa'e of any Machine except those of the Singer Manufacturing Company's OWN MAKiS. BEWARE OF PERSONS who having ro good trade repute of their own, use our name " SINGER," to palm off Counterfeit Machines of infeilor Construction and Manufacture. Every SINoii~MACHINB has the Company's name printed upon the Arm, and impressed upon the Brass Ti ade-mark Plate. The r-inrjer Manufacturing Company's Machines are all Lock-stitch, and they wear well for more than twenty years.

SEWING MACHIVES on the Singer system, FROM £5. J. H. GROCOTT, ANO THER SE WING MA CHINE E. W. KNOWLES IS THE APPOINTED AGENT FOR THB NEW WHITE, H< )RIZONTAL, FEED, NOISELESS, EASY RUNNING-, (And without fear of contradiction) THE BEST OF ALL KNOWN QEWING TVfAOHINES This, the latest claimant for the the position o "Cheapest aud Best in the world" is to be seen an the Warehouse of Mr E. W. Knowlbs, Hastings-street, and unquestionably the many ingenious points displayed in the construction render it well worth examining. As a matter of fact the horizontal feed is common to many machines, and the term has therefore no signification of importance. But in the White machine there is this marked improvement on many other varieties—that the feed plate acts on either side of the needle. In other words, the work is pushed along as if by two fingers instead of one. Obviously this tends to produce very even results, and'it enables the operator to sew along the right or left edge of the fabric at pleasure. At the same time, the arm of the machine is at, a more thanordi nary height above the table, and the pressure foot hlso has a liberal amount of piny given to it by the aid of a well-contrived spriny. A large mass of material could therefore be p.-.ssed. over the work table, and through tbe machine, without the remotest chance of njuiy. The entire mechanißm is ol the most simple character, and so little friction is there that one may run the machine— almost without being conscious of the fact. When the main part of the machine is not required to be run—as, for instance, when shuttle bobbins are to be wound —a little spring catch is thrown back, and the sewing mechanism is thereby disconnected from the driving gear. Further, when any given bearing may in the course of time become worn, the mere turning of a screw effects a refitting of the friction surfaces. One specially ingenious contrivance is displayed in the tension arrangement of the shuttle, 'i here are no holes to be threaded, as ia commonly the case ; but the thread being wound in and out of a few grooves, a little steel plate pops down, and by the action of a spring which can be made light or heavy at will, keeps just the desired strain on the under thread. The tension for the upper thread is also automatic. The machines are now on view, and an inspection is respectfully solicited, when Price lists, etc., and fuller particulars can be obtained at E. W.
