BEFORE PURCHASING, TEST _HE GROVER & BAKER'S CELEBRATED PREMIUM FOR HAND AND FOOT. AMONG the innumerable makaa aud descriptions of SEWING MACHINES before the Public, each claiming distinctive superiority, there are yet ONLY THREE descriptions of STITCHES, viz:— . 1. The CHAIN (or Single Thread) Stitch, 2. The SHUTTLE (or, so-called " Lock") Stitch 3.' The " Grover and Baker" ELASTIC STITCH The Chain Stitch being superseded by the fast and permanent work of the two last described, it has to be further explained that A__ the Machines advertised as " Lock Stitch" Machines, whether operating with a needle —as the Howe and the Singer, or with a needle, bobbin, and rotary hook, as the Whesler and Wilson Machine —make the sliut'de-stitch and nothing else, and none of the infirmities of this stitch have been got rid of by the assumption of the term " Lockstitch," The GROVER and BAKER Company (not. deprecating tbe shuttle-Btitch for some purposes) manufacture Shuttle Maohines as well as the Grover and Baker or Elastic-Stitoh Machines, bat' they recommend the latter as unequalled for family'work, or for those kinds of work where strength as well as beauty of stitch are required, and particularly for any materials which are to be ivashed and ironed. A comparison of a seam of both kinds of sewing will confirm tbe assertion that the Grover and Baker stitch, while possessing the elasticity which is deficient in hhe Shuttle-stitch, is even more fast aud durable and more worthy of the term " lock-stitch." * %3_T- NOTICE. i Hand Machines, .as well as Table Machines, SemiCabinet, and Full Cabinet, in Walnut-wood and Mahogany, various, styles, may be had at REDUCED PRICES ON EASY TERMS, WITH Alii Accessories belonging, and Instructions for working them, of tha Company's SOLE AGENT, "W .■ M .
