Improved in 1859 with New and Extra Large Flues, and by the addition of the Celebrated Patent Double Sheet Bottom Flue. Attention is invited to the following Points of Superiority: — 1st. DURABILITY. Lasting, with proper care, at least twenty years. Stoves are now in use that were set up in 1838. 2d. MANUFACTURE. - Every portion of the Stove is thoroughly constructed. Each stove is submitted to a critical test, and none leave our works unless completely and perfectly finished. 3d.

The wide-spread reputation of this Machine is eminently due to its peculiar merits, which are acknowledged by the best judges to surpass all others in the requisites for family use. It has become a domestic institution, and is justly looked upon as a household economy. In all the finer qualities of family sewing, on silk, linen, cotton, and broadcloth, in hemming, stitching, quilting, gathering, and all the innumerable ends to which female needlework is applied, the WHEELER & WILSON SEWING MACHINE confessedly occupies a position of pre-eminence. Those who have not hitherto availed themselves of the advantages of this machine are invited to examine its operation, and obtain specimens of its work, at the sales-room. In order to place it within the reach of all, it is now offered at REDUCED PRICES, and a new style at FIFTY DOLLARS. No. 228 Washington Street, Corner of Summer Street, Boston. J. E. ROOT, AGENT. THIS establishment (one of the oldest in the country) is supplied with all the conveniences and instruments necessary to the production of the finest and most accurate representations of persons or places. The apartments are large and airy. The operators and artists are skilful and experienced. Daguerrotypes, Photographs, and Stereographs taken of every size and in all styles. MR. WHIPPLE gives his personal and unremitting attention at the Rooms, and will spare no pains to satisfy his customers, and no expense in receiving every improvement in apparatus or methods of operating. The generous patronage he has received for years has so diffused specimens of his work over the country that it is unnecessary to advertise the numerous recommendations his establishment has received. It has made itself known far and wide; and its past performances are, it is believed, a sufficient guaranty of its present ability. To meet the fashion of the times, particular attention is now paid to CARD MR. WHIPPLE is prepared to take fac-similes of buildings and estates, in town or country, machinery, patterns, engravings, in fact, of any objects of which there is a desire to multiply copies. He would call special attention to his success in PHOTOGRAPHING GROUPS. BOSTON, 1861. |
