~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

TO THE LEARNER

A LITTLE time given to the study of the instructions, before commencing to use the machine, will be found of great advantage.

The working of the machine is explained as minutely as possible, and each operation made the subject of illustration. The cute are arranged in the order in which the learner must proceed.

A careful examination of the illustrations alone will be sufficient to teach the most inexperienced to operate successfully.

Never attempt to take the machine apart, or you will be sure to bet into trouble.

Become perfectly familiar with the machine before undertaking any practical work.

If the Machine miss stitches, see that the needle is properly set, and that the thread and needle are of the proper size to be used together.

If the thread breaks, be sure that the needle is not too high, and that the short groove is next to the shuttle, and that the machine is threaded properly, and that the tensions are not too tight, and that the eye of the needle is not sharp.

When about to sew thick, soft material, adjust the machine for a longer stitch.
