WHEELER & WILSON'S LOOK-STITCH SEWING MACHINES, AT REDUCED PRICES. (An Acno3Tio.) WHEELER & WILSON'S Lock-stitch Sewing Machines are still unrivalled, although they HAVE BEEN BEFORE the public nearly 20 years. During that period many T.INTERPRISING FIRMS have tried to supeiIU sedethem. Yet they maintain their superiority. "|jl VERY ONE admits that there is no Machine 8 U stitch at all comparable to the OCX-STITCH, which is the firmest and neatest, hns the same appearance on EACH SIDE of the material sewn, and though cut in two, will not EAVEL. — The Lock-Stitch is the distinguishing feature of their Machines, which they adopted in the first instance, and from which they have never deviated. AND in addition to the lock-stitch they have recently introduced an importantyet perfectly T^TOVEL FEATURE, which not only performs JL^I ornamental sewing, but also the most ELICATE EMBROIDERY. Their Machines will now stitch, hem, fell, gather, tuck, bind, cord, quilt, trim, braid, embroider, and in fact will accomplish every kind of work which a machino can produce. WHEELER and WILSON beg especially to call the attention of every INDIVIDUAL who requires a sewing machine to the silent feed bar, their LATEST IMPROVEMENT, which has had tho desirable effect of rendering their QE WING MACHINES silent working! Thisen>O tirely removes what was formerly considered an OBJECTION to the introduction of a~sewing machine into ladies' apartments. "VTOTHING now remains to be accomplished _Ll in order to render tho Q ILENT- WORKING LOCK-STITCH iI&W---)O ING MACHINE the most perfect instrument in tho market, as numerous testimonials attest. A pamphlet, containing a few of these, with a description of tho Machine, its construction and mode of working, and illustrations of its various parts, may be had on application. S~EVENTYTRIZE MEDALS have already been bestowed in all parts of the world on these Machines. In Paris, at the Exposition Universello (1867) WHEELER and j WILSON'S Machines were acknowledged to lead the world in this branch of industry $ for out of no less a number than eighty-two competitors they were tho only firm to whom a GOLD MEDAL was awarded; thus " placing tho Wheeler and Wilson," says the " Art Journal," "at tho head of all Sewing Machino Manufacturers, both in Europe and America. TjI VERY YEAR has witnessed improvements lli in construction, and it has become TTTORLD-RENO V7NED. ' IN order to ensure accuracy of finish and perfection of workmanship OT A SINGLE MACHINE is permitted leave the manufactory till it has GONE through the hands of three competent engineers, and should any defect be found, it is immediately remedied, and the same test is again applied. Finally, it is put in perfect running order by an accomplished machinist. ORE THAN THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY THOUSAND of theso Machines have been sold, and the ANNUAL SALE now amounts to tho prodi gious number of over 60,000 ! CAN MORE BE SAID to convince the most sceptical of their superiority ? HITHERTO no machino has approached the Silent working Wheeler and Wilson IN PERFECTION OF WORKMANSHIP, rapidity and action, firmness and elasticity of stitch, VTOLSELE3SNESS of motion, perfect adapta--1.1 tion to every kind of work, EASINESS of comprehension to the learner, lightness and elegance of appearance. SUCH is the success, which has attended the Silent working Lock-Stitch Machine. "~LONG & CO, 64 Elizabeth street, Melbourne, opposite the " Age" office. E. W.
