Reduced to Live and Lei Live Prices, 



THESE MACHINES AEE ALL SUPERIOR 

 to any and all; nice sewers, straight needle, 

 two threads, shuttle, lock-etitch, the simplest | 

 and cheapest, and the lightest running first-claFS 

 machines in the market. To see is to convince : 

 yourselves. 8S^ Remember, all Home and j 

 Home Shuttle Sewing Machines have the Hall j 

 Treadle attached without extra charge. 



THE HALL TREADLE 



For Sewing Itluchiiies, 



THE MOST IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT 

 EVER MADE. 



It eaves labor and preserved health. No more 

 diseases and deaths, side or back aches from us- 

 ing sewing machines. No teaching required. A 

 child can run it. Always starts the right way. 

 Never goes backwards and breaks things. Can 

 be stopped instantly. With it on your machine, 

 you can do double the work you can do without 

 it. Fifty stitches can be made with one pressure 

 of one foot, .\pproved by the Massachusetts 

 State Board of Health (see official report, 1872), 

 Massachusetts Medical Society, and Mssachu- 

 setts Charitable Mechanics' Association. The 

 HALL TREADLE is a part of all HOME MA- 

 CHINES sold by me. 



B^ The Hall Treadle can he attached to any 

 other sewing machine. Remember this. We 

 will attach it onto any machine. It will cost 

 you only $12, and will save you a deal of hard 

 work and trouble. 



THE HALL TREADLE GRIXDIXG 

 MACHINE 



Must be seen to l)e appreciated. For a Fanner 

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

 dispensable article in every house, shop or hotel.

This reform underclothing has been worn by 

 the Editor's wife and children for the past two 

 seasons, and is certainly superior in points of 

 comfort, healthfulness, and economy of wear 

 and material of any ever invented. They arc the 

 invention of a California lady who makes every 

 pattern herself and writes full directions upon 

 each. No family that once tries these styles of 

 clothing will ever go back to the others.
