As it will 8cw from one to many thick Hemes of cloth and lace or leather, without any change of needle or tension it in evident that it must be mure cit.-.o In mitn.ixr than other machines that requiie change in ru lining from one variety of cloth to another. It ii also easier to manage than any other i Became it has a more powerful feed that holds on to the work tirnilv so that the operator need not hold it stretched to avoid puckering, thus en dangering breaking of needles. Because it is unnecessary to unscrew anv part of the machine te clean and oil it. Because vnti never ha 'c to cut tlie band off to take lip the stretch of leather.
