The GROVER & BAKER ELASTIC-STITCH HEW- TNG MACHINES are superior to all others for the following reasnns : 1. Tbey sew direct from the spool', and require no rewinding of thrend. 2. They are more easily understood and nsd, and less liable to derangement than other machines. 8. They are capable of executing periectiy, wun -out change of adjustment, a much greater variety of work than other machines. 4. Tbe stitch made by these machines is much more flira, elastic and durable, especially upon arti cles which require to be washed and Ironed , than any other stitch. 6. 1 bis stitch, owing to the manner in wnicn tne an!e' t read is inwrong ht, is much the most plum p and beautiful in use, and retain, this plumpness snd beauty even upon articles frequently washed and ironed until they are worn out. 6. The structure of the seam is sich that, though it be cut or broken at intervals of only a few siilch e it will neither teen, run or ravel, but remains firm and durable. 7. Unlike other machines, these fasten both ends of the seam by their own operation. 8. With these machine, whils nlk is n-ed Of.oa the riht or face side of the seam, cotton isy fro ned upon the other side without leenmK the strength or durability of the seam. This can be done "in no oilier machine, and Is a great saving uptu all articles stitched or ina-'e np with silk. 9. These machines. In addit on to their superior merits as instruments for sewing, by a change cf ad justment, easily learned and practiced, execute the most bcactiful and permanent embroidery and orna mental wrrk.
