THE STANDARD liOTAJRY
v
; The World's Best Sewing Machine
; It is the Highest Grade because the Standard Botary principle is ab
solutely perfect, the material the very best and it is oonstruoted by skilled
meenanos oniy. 11 is me easiest
because the Standard Botary Shut
tle travels less than half as far vi
brating and -oscillating shuttles in
making each stitoh. It makes 850
stitches while others make 200.
It is the Easiest Banning because
full ball . bearing, and it requires
- but the slightest touoh to start the
shuttle revolving, and very little
effort is necessary to keep it going
round and ronnd, whereas on vi
brating and oscillating shuttle ma
chines 50 per cent more movements
of the treadle are necessary in sew-j
ing the same length seam to furnisbf
enough power to carry the shuttle
more than double the distance anfl
to overcome the resistance resulting
from the two stops and two start!
in making each stitch. V
Is there a Dressmaker, or a home
sewer, who can afford to absolutely throw away three hour of every seven
spent in sewing on vibrating or oscillating shuttle machines? - Four hours
of superior work on the Standard Botary and three hours of pleasure afford
greater satisfaction
