THESE MACHINES ARE ALL SUPERIOR 

 to any ami all; uice sewers, straight needle, 

 twn threads, shuttle, lock-stitc-h, the simplest 

 and cheapest, and the lightest running; first-clat s 

 machines in the market. To see is to convince 

 yom-selves. (fc?" Remember, nil Home and 

 Home Shuttle Sewing Macliines have the Hall 

 Treadle attached without extra charge. 



THE HALL TREADLE 



For Sewings Machines, 



THE MOST IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT 

 EVER MADE. 



It saves labor and preserved health. No mort; 

 diseases and deaths, side or back aches from us- 

 ing sewing machines. No teaching retiuired. A 

 child can run it. Always starts the right way. 

 Never goes backwards and breaks things. Can 

 be stopped instantly. M'ith it oa your machine, 

 you can do double the work yo>i can do witliout 

 it. Fifty stitches can be made with one pressure 

 of one foot. Approved by i-he Massachusetts 

 State Roard of Health (see ofhcial report. 1872), 

 Massachusetts Medical Society, and Mssachu- 

 setts Charitiil'Ie Mechanics' Assuciatiou. The 

 HALLTKEADLE is a part of all HOME MA- 

 CHINES sold by nie. 



fa^ The Hall Treadle can be attached to any 

 other sewing machine. Remember this. We 

 will attach it onto any machine. It will cost 

 you only $V2, and will save you a deal of hard 

 work and trouble. 



THE HALT. TREADLK GRINDING 



MACHINE 



Must be seen to be appreciated. For a Farmer 

 or Mechanic to see it, is to buy one. It is an in- 

 dispensable article in every house, shop or hotel.
