Sewing Machines. NOT FOR AN AGE, BUT FOR ALL TIME! THE WORLD-RENOWNED DINGER JEWING TtTAOHINE SEWS THE FINEST MUSLINS, and HEAVIEST CLOTHS. Easy to Learn. A Crild can Work it. NEW AND VALUABLE IMPROVEMENTS. for the " New Family, " and " Medium," Machines. THE TRIPLE ACTION BALANCE WHEEL. This patented improvement adds a new feature of excellencn to these popular Machines. Some of the advantages are aa 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 %s 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 a 8 a proof of this it need only be said that it is about tbe 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 was carried before the Hou=e 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 tho name " Singer" in connection with the style, ma .c, or sale of any Machine except those of 'the Singer Manufacturing Company's OWN MAKE. BEWARE OF PERSONS who having no good trade repute of their own, use our name " SINGER," to palm oft Counterfeit Machines of inferior Construction and Manufacture, Every SINGER~M&CHINE has tho Company's name printed upon the Arm, and impressed upon the Brass Tiade-mark Plate. The Singer Manufacturing Company's Maohines are all Lock-stitch, and they wear well for more than twenty years. ACCESSORIES GIVEN WITH BACH MACHINE.

VERTICA FEED VERTICAL FEED VERTICAL FEED AT LARGE & TOWNLEY'S ANOTHER SEWING MACHINE E. W. KNOWLES IS THE APPOINTED AGENT FOR thb NEW WHITE, HORIZONTAL, FEED, NOISELESS, EASY RUNNING, (And without fear of contradiction) THE BEST OF ALL KNOWN QEWING TMTACHINES This, the latest claimant for the tho 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 tho White machine there is this marked improvement on many other varieties—that the feed plate acts on either side ot the needle. In other words, the work is pushed along as if by two ringers 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 ot play given to it by the aid of a well-contrived spring. A large mass of material could therefore be passed over the work table, and through the mnchine, without the remotest chance of njury. The entire mechanism is of the most simple character, and so little friction is there that one may run the machine— almost without being conscious of the fact. When tho 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 batik, nnd the suwing mechanism is thereby disconnected from the driving gear. Further, when any given bearing may iv 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 the shuttle. There are no holes to bo threaded, as ia commonly tho case ; but the thread being wound in and out ot a few grooves, a little steel plate pops down, and by the action of a Bpring which can be made light or heavy at will, keeps just tho 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.
