Sewing Machines. NOT FOE AN AG-E, BUT TOR ALL TIME! THE WORLD-RENOWNED LINGER JEWING Tl/TACHINE SEWS THE FTNKST MUSLINS, and HEAVIEST CLOTHS. Easy to Leabn. A Child can Wobk it. NEW AND VALUABLE IMPROVEMENTS. fob the " Netv Family, " and " Medium," Machines. THE TRIPLE ACTION BALANCE WHEEL. This patented improvement adds a new feature of excellent 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 tread'e action. 1. If the learner starts the treadle motion in the wrong direcion, it will not work the Machine, but as soon xs it takes the right direction it put 3 the Machine in motion. 3. When winding shuttle-bobbins the action of the Machine is suspended, preventing disarrangements of the threads and un&ecessary wear. This Mechanical principle on which Singer's Machines aro huilt can hardly be improved, and as a proof of thia it need otily be said that it is about the only Machine imitators 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 wns carried before the House 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 Sinjrer Company. Since that trial no Sewing Machine Manufacturers or Dealers are permitted to use the name " Singer " in connection with the styltf, ma .c, or sale of any Machine except those of the Singer Manufacturing Company's OWN MAKE.

SEWING MACHINES on the Singer system, FROM £5. J . 11. G E 0 C 0 T T - ANOTHER SEWING MACHINE E. W. KNOWLES IS THE APPOINTED AGENT FOR TUB NEW WHITE, HORIZONTAL, FEED, NOISELESS, EASY RUNNING-, (And without fear of contradiction) THE BEST OF ALL KNOWN OEWING "jl/TACHINES This, the latest claimant for the the position o "Cheapest and Best in the world "is to be seen at the Warehouse of Mr E. W. Knowles, 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 aloug- 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 than ordinary height above the table, and the pressure-foot also has a liberal amount of plaj' yiven to it by the aid of a well-contrived sprine , . A large mass of material could therefore bo passed over the work' table, and through the machine, without the remotest chance of njuiy. The entire mechanism is of the most simple character, and so little friction is there that one may run the uwchine—almost without wing eonacious 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 sear. Further, when any given bearing may In tho 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 tho shuttle. There aro no holes to be threaded, as ia commonly tho case ; but the thread beinir 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, L:eeps just the desired strain on the under thread. Tho tension for the upper thread is also automatic. The machines aro now on view, and an inspection is respectfully solicited, when Price lists, etc., and fuller particulars can be obtained at E. W. KNOWLES, General Meeohant HASTINGS STREET, Napibk,
