The recent improvements on this machine make it one of 
the most perfect pieces of mechanism in the world. Every 
housekeeper in the country should see it, and Judge for 
themselves, since it is now guaranteed to meet evtry need 
of the household. Any machine at tins price that wi'll knit 
20,000 glitches, or 22 inches perfect work, per minute— either 
in flat web, hollow tube, or circular form, in any plain or 
fancy stitch that can be done bv hand— will certainly be 
found more useful andcpnvenlentin a family than a sewing- 
machine can possihlv he. It is very simple in its operation, 
and knits any kind of yarn, cotton, linen, silk, or woolen, 
in plain or fancy stitch of Knitted, Crochet, or Afghan 
work. Agents wanted. Send for illustrated circular.
